This is the slot 1 cpu (233mhz with mmx) I'm wanting to slow down. Can anyone verify if this can be done with a intel 440-BX board and setmul or
another program?
The number on top of the cpu is B80522P233512 and then SL2QA if that helps. Thanks ahead for any input!
From the Setmul page:
SetMul allows disabling the L1 cache on any x86 processor from the 486 onwards.
Keep in mind you will be going from super fast to as slow as a 286, with no in-between.
Moslo or other speed reduction programs may give you more speed points, but from my understanding they are also problematic and often will work for some games but not others, or may not keep a consistent speed. I don't have much experience with them.
Setmul is perfect for AMD K6-2+, K6-III+, and some VIA C3 and Cyrix chips. It also works well with AMD K6-2 and some Pentium Overdrive MMX cpus. What I mean is, you are allowed multiple slowdown options, which give you different speed points. Pentium II and III are pretty limited. Just disable L1 and that's it. FYI.
