It can't go lower. Understood. I've already gotten my expectations a little too high considering the surprising ability to divide 600/8 and get (effective) 75MHz . I have not been able to get any other chip since my Socket 7 (P200MMX and K6-2 266) down using multipliers. I haven't come across …

I'm just wondering if the unlocked multiplier chip can get lower than 6. The reason is to be able to use the clock modulation option to slow down to 486 effective performance for speed sensitive games. Not a requirement, but a nice ability. I'm moving soon and have started putting lots of stuff into …

No fair! Unlocked multiplier! 😀 Daaang that's cool. Are you able to drop the multiplier below 6 on the 6500k? Any special cooling requirements?

Chips that support Speedstep can specifically pick their multiplier down to about 1/2, so Wolfdale and Conroe chips have even greater flexibility. A chip with small multiplier but high FSB has the most flexibility, as long as you operate in ratios that aren't too far from what the RAM and FSB need …

Sure there are, even 400MHz CL2 : LINK . They need manual tweaks (timings + voltage), to work properly at those settings though. I would check how E7200 behaves when locked to 800MHz FSB. Also, I'm not sure if your memory "likes" CL2.5 at 400MHz, maybe they have to be overvoltaged a bit to work (to …

Hopefully someone can confirm or explain the difficulties I've been having with this board. TL;DR: Core 2 Duo E7200 M0 stepping isn't working correctly on this board. Seeking help to figure out if it it is a RAM issue (required: CL2.5@400MHz) or if M0 stepping model number is unsupported. Board …

I've recently pulled this dual capture card from a 2005 era HTPC I found at a local PC store in the scrap section. I badly wanted the case, which is an old Antec Fusion silver-remote with working LCD which will be getting a Ryzen+Vega APU. This card is an AverMedia M1A2-E. The drivers are hard to …

I can run those at 100x24 in my Abit board, but it needed modding to do so. 2400mhz/166 is 14.5 multiplier. Pentium MMX 266 did exist, but for laptops only. Technically a p2 at 300mhz is still a Pentium MMX, just the 2nd revision. P2 was a completely different microarchitecture and used a different …

Thanks for the advice, everyone. The Celeron 366 will not work with this board. I ordered a PII 400 off ebay and it works with this board. I remember being irritated at the locked multiplier on this Celeron when it was new, too. In case anyone sees this post who's looking to build a Slot1 system in …

I found a PC133 128MB module to try, and the board still doesn't work. The manual says that x4 modules will not work on this board, but I don't now what that means. I think this board just doesn't support the 366 MHz clock for this Celeron, so I'm going to get a Pentium II that has a clock …

IMG_0084[1].JPG IMG_0083[1].JPG Hi everyone, I've been lurking here for years, but never had a reason to post until now. I hope this is the appropriate forum category to post this. I just picked up a Compaq slot 1 motherboard on ebay because I wanted to build a machine to use a Celeron 366 chip …
