I have a 1.8a on an ABIT bd7II w/ Samsung pc2100 (ddr266). I bought pc2100 because the board stated it only supported pc1600 and pc2100. My question is: How is it possible other people are using pc2700 and pc3200 for this board?
I understand that O/Cing fsb according to the cpu/mem dividers speed up the ram to speeds of pc2700 and pc3200. i.e.
133fsb using a 3:4 divider yields
- 133/3 * 4 * 2 = 354 (ddr354)
or
150fsb using 1:1 divider yields
- 150/1 * 1 * 2 = 300 (ddr300)
I also understand that mem & cpus can run at higher speeds just untested for, thus people can O/C.
thanks in advance.
