Readme.txt for Overclocking Calculator 1.1


This program is for informational purposes only.
Overclocking any component on your computer can 
cause severe damage to your system and it's 
components.


This program makes no changes to your system. It does
not change any system settings, especially those
related to overclocking. Its just a calculator.



WHAT THIS PROGRAM DOES :
Overclocking Calculator calculates CPU speeds, PCI bus speed,
and the AGP bus speed based on the information it is given
to work with.

For instance, if your FSB (Front Side Bus) is set to
100 mhz, and your CPU multiplier is set to 8, your CPU
will be running at 800 mhz. 
It will also tell you what your PCI bus speed will 
be if you set the PCI multiplier to 1/2, 1/3, 1/4 or any
other setting at any range of bus speeds. It will also
give you the same type of information for the AGP bus.

Most setting can be added or removed through the Settings
options.

In short, its basically a single function calulator :)



PROGRAM USAGE :

FSB Low End and FSB Top End :
  Set the range of possible Front Side Bus Speeds

CPU Multiplier :
  The multiplier for your CPU. On most modern CPUs this is
  locked and cannot be changed.



BUTTONS

Go Button : 
  After you have your values set, click this button to
  get the values for PCI and AGP bus speed at various
  multipliers.

Settings :
  Set the defaults for FSB Low End, FSB Top End, CPU Multiplier.
  Add or delete values for AGP and PCI multipliers.
  Values added for AGP and PCI multipliers MUST be in
  this format : x/x
  Values added for CPU multiplier MUST be added in 
  this format : x.x

Save :
  Save either selected or all data. (added in version 1.1)
