On another note, I used to have an old Pentium with a turbo button, it when from 60MHz to 90MHz when I pressed it.

The turbo button actually "slowed" PCs down.

So what button are you talking about?]]>May 27th 2008 12:27PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/05/27/msis-new-nvidia-9600gt-card-includes-turbo-button-for-overclo/http://www.engadget.com/2008/05/27/msis-new-nvidia-9600gt-card-includes-turbo-button-for-overclo/

You're went that fast? Mine jumped from 16MHz to 33MHz when I pressed the turbo button.

"Of course, calling it a "turbo" button when its function slows the system down can be a bit misleading, but the button was usually set up so the system would be at full speed when the button was "on"."

According to that, most systems did in fact increase clock speed when the turbo button was pressed, even though the turbo feature was actually to lower the clock speed.]]>May 28th 2008 11:39AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/05/27/msis-new-nvidia-9600gt-card-includes-turbo-button-for-overclo/http://www.engadget.com/2008/05/27/msis-new-nvidia-9600gt-card-includes-turbo-button-for-overclo/May 28th 2008 5:58AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/05/27/msis-new-nvidia-9600gt-card-includes-turbo-button-for-overclo/http://www.engadget.com/2008/05/27/msis-new-nvidia-9600gt-card-includes-turbo-button-for-overclo/May 27th 2008 11:32AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/05/27/msis-new-nvidia-9600gt-card-includes-turbo-button-for-overclo/http://www.engadget.com/2008/05/27/msis-new-nvidia-9600gt-card-includes-turbo-button-for-overclo/May 27th 2008 11:45AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/05/27/msis-new-nvidia-9600gt-card-includes-turbo-button-for-overclo/http://www.engadget.com/2008/05/27/msis-new-nvidia-9600gt-card-includes-turbo-button-for-overclo/May 27th 2008 11:56AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/05/27/msis-new-nvidia-9600gt-card-includes-turbo-button-for-overclo/http://www.engadget.com/2008/05/27/msis-new-nvidia-9600gt-card-includes-turbo-button-for-overclo/you didn't have a turbo button, you had a slow-down button.

That is why you have the 8800 GTX, GTS, GT, and GS. The 8800 GTX are the chips that had the fewest number of defects, and therefore can tolerate the higher clock rate.]]>May 27th 2008 12:45PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/05/27/msis-new-nvidia-9600gt-card-includes-turbo-button-for-overclo/http://www.engadget.com/2008/05/27/msis-new-nvidia-9600gt-card-includes-turbo-button-for-overclo/May 27th 2008 11:32AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/05/27/msis-new-nvidia-9600gt-card-includes-turbo-button-for-overclo/http://www.engadget.com/2008/05/27/msis-new-nvidia-9600gt-card-includes-turbo-button-for-overclo/May 27th 2008 11:33AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/05/27/msis-new-nvidia-9600gt-card-includes-turbo-button-for-overclo/http://www.engadget.com/2008/05/27/msis-new-nvidia-9600gt-card-includes-turbo-button-for-overclo/May 27th 2008 11:34AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/05/27/msis-new-nvidia-9600gt-card-includes-turbo-button-for-overclo/http://www.engadget.com/2008/05/27/msis-new-nvidia-9600gt-card-includes-turbo-button-for-overclo/May 27th 2008 12:00PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/05/27/msis-new-nvidia-9600gt-card-includes-turbo-button-for-overclo/http://www.engadget.com/2008/05/27/msis-new-nvidia-9600gt-card-includes-turbo-button-for-overclo/May 27th 2008 4:21PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/05/27/msis-new-nvidia-9600gt-card-includes-turbo-button-for-overclo/http://www.engadget.com/2008/05/27/msis-new-nvidia-9600gt-card-includes-turbo-button-for-overclo/May 27th 2008 11:37AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/05/27/msis-new-nvidia-9600gt-card-includes-turbo-button-for-overclo/http://www.engadget.com/2008/05/27/msis-new-nvidia-9600gt-card-includes-turbo-button-for-overclo/May 27th 2008 11:34AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/05/27/msis-new-nvidia-9600gt-card-includes-turbo-button-for-overclo/http://www.engadget.com/2008/05/27/msis-new-nvidia-9600gt-card-includes-turbo-button-for-overclo/May 27th 2008 11:36AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/05/27/msis-new-nvidia-9600gt-card-includes-turbo-button-for-overclo/http://www.engadget.com/2008/05/27/msis-new-nvidia-9600gt-card-includes-turbo-button-for-overclo/May 27th 2008 12:46PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/05/27/msis-new-nvidia-9600gt-card-includes-turbo-button-for-overclo/http://www.engadget.com/2008/05/27/msis-new-nvidia-9600gt-card-includes-turbo-button-for-overclo/May 27th 2008 1:26PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/05/27/msis-new-nvidia-9600gt-card-includes-turbo-button-for-overclo/http://www.engadget.com/2008/05/27/msis-new-nvidia-9600gt-card-includes-turbo-button-for-overclo/
