hey remember when pcs had Turbo Buttons?
@Nine ...barely
what did they even do
@Alyx buton make comptuerbox go fast
@Nine like, did it just upclock the oscillator or something
@Alyx I THINK what the deal was is that typically this was around the time when the maximum speed of a pc was like... 25 mhz or something. maybe 66 tops... So I guess to preserve cpu lifetime (because most chips didn't need/use heatsinks or fans and were okay with passive cooling from jsut their surface) they underclocked the cpu by default, sothe cases often had a Turbo Switch that would ramp it up to full speed??
that's just my theory tho
