MSI Dynamic Overclocking Technology
(August 31, 2003)

What is the Dynamic Overclocking Technology? Many mobo users must feel curious about this question. Dynamic Overclocking Technology, in simple words, is the automatic overclocking function, included in the MSI's newly developed CoreCell Technology. It is designed to detect the load balance of CPU while running programs, and to adjust the best CPU frequency automatically. When the motherboard detects CPU is running programs, it will speed up CPU automatically to make the program run smoothly and faster. When the CPU is temporarily suspending or staying in the low load balance, it will restore the default settings instead. Apparently, the Dynamic Overclocking Technology will be powered only when users' PCs need to run huge amount of data like 3D games or the video process, and the CPU frequency needs to be boosted up to enhance the overall performance. On the contrary, when your PC stays in the normal status such as surfing on the Internet or doing hard drive defragment, CPU will remain the original speed without overclocking.

The advantage of Dynamic Overclocking Technology is that the system will help you to set an overclocking environment in advance, avoid of unnecessary risk, and save the time for manually adjustment. Spending much time and efforts on testing and experimenting, the CPU overclocking range of MSI's Dynamic Overclocking Technology is fairly reasonable and acceptable compared with the CPU in the market. Besides, the Dynamic Overclocking Technology appears to be more stable than the manual overclocking because after users overclock manually, the PC would stay in the overclocking status always which means it would also cost much electricity and might shorten the life of computers. However, by using MSI's Dynamic Overclocking Technology, you don't need to worry about this problem anymore.
