nforce 680i OC rumour.

[teknokid]

rumours have it that the 680i will be able to raise the bus speed to 500mhz! (2000mhz equiv)!

now they just need memory that can do that, and also a processor that can overclock that high
and tbh
stock is good enough for me at the moment

Yup, or more or less depending on the multiplier chosen. But its still been done on an out-of-the-box abit i975 board before.

Well you can run a divider.
The extra cpu speed is much more important that memory speed anyway.

People hit over 5ghz before c2d was released :p
