Just wondering, is there a software or utility that can tell me if the Cyrix MII/motherboard is running in Linear burst mode ? Or any other means to know if it's working ?
Supposedly this mode would give a small boost, but I didn't notice any improvement from enabling it on my Gigabyte 5SMM motherboard. It has a BIOS option for enabling it.
I also have a PCChips M598 one that doesn't have any option to enable it, and i'm wondering if it's enabled by default.
Also have another Soyo 5SSM board that has the BIOS option plus a jumper on the PCB to enable it (called Linear/Toggle mode), but this board doesn't seem to boot anymore.
All these boards use the SiS530 chipset, which supporst Linear Burst.
