I doubt very much that the quality of NVidia's clock has anything to do with an EMI problem. A higher quality clock with nice sharp edges and high amplitude will cause much more EMI than a weak one. The only possible exception would be if there were a lot of ringing on each edge transition, but that can easily be controlled by components external to the NVidia chip. I suspect the "poor quality clock" problem and the EMI problem are independent. Blame the author for writing about something he doesn't know enough about. Probably the best interpretation of this article. Petz
