Technology computer enthusiasts overclock demand, has many years of technological development overclock done. The goal is to buy cheap stuff, but got the same speed or performance, such as expensive goods.

Originally done by modifying the game overclocked processors, and start reaching the world’s memory. All products are high-end market entry. Cheap processors speed up as high as possible to safe limits. Memory using the highest performance. And finally a reliable cooling system to cool the processor performance.

The goal is only one, getting as high as possible processor capabilities
with a cheaper price.

Since Intel introduced Sandy Bridge, perhaps the word overclock gives a different meaning.

Sandy Bridge have direct on-chip clock generator or called PSB. When upgraded will affect other components like SATA, USB and more.

Intel offers another solution for enthusiast overclocking, called the series K. Features that are planted Turbo Boost, processors will overclock itself when needed. This eliminates the need to overclock because there is already inside the processor.

For some people still remain attractive using overclocked system. Only cost is not comparable to what they get. Sandy Bridge E processors and chipsets Patsburg have no limits. But what price should motherboard that they have, of course the price is not cheap. Even Intel prepares K series, where the processors are not locked to the overclock. Finally, overclock more expensive than 10 years ago.
