Ok i have an asus A7N8X. If i bought a gig of pc4200 ddr, and dropped my athlon xp multiplier to run at same clocks, could this mainboard handle a 533mhz fsb?

533? eh? I assume you mean DDR533.

266MHz is above the top end for most AMD systems, only extreme cooling and Vmodding the NB voltage will allow a FSB that high. I would guess that your board is capable of 220 MHz if it is a Rev2.

Click to expand...

and for everyone m8 it just dont exist on amd chips

besides if you mean to compete with the 533 p4 rating then it is realy a 133 system fsb p4's use quad timing 133x4 =533

correct me if i'm mistaken by this

yes, amd is double pumped, i've asked the same question, and i just don't think it's possible, but throw that pc4200 in and get kickin

let us now if the processor/mobo can handle it

most i've gotten is 227mhz(454fsb) but my pc3500(ddr433) couldn't handle it

guess i could try running async, hmmmm.......
