JumperFree overclocking?

[Felix]

Is there much difference between adjusting FSB, cpu multiplier, and voltages, in the bios with JumperFree mode, and doing it by changing the jumpers and switches on the mobo?

If a choice is available, I'd use jumperfree to see what the system can do, and then force those settings by way of jumpers. I'm jaded against bios overclocking since the whole KT133A boot problem. Plus I have a few old Asus mobos that have jumper overclocking...

It's dependant on mobo and chipset.. some jumperfree solutions will work fine, but some will work like real arse (esp. the KT133A boot problem I mentioned)

JumperFree is definately a good feature.. saves heaps of time that is wasted opening the case, fiddling with stupid little dip switches or jumpers, looking up the right combinations in the manual... especially if you tweak and overclock alot.

I've never ran into any problems like whetu.. I've have had jumper free mobo's from way back. An Abit BE6-II with PIII 550 .. jumperfree goodness.. it's still here acting as a spare PC
