lowering front side bus!!!

[Tibor]

I have a P!!! 1000 FCPGA 133mhz front side bus speed on a gigabyte 6VXC7-4X motherboard anyways someone put pc100 ram in it and its running at 133 it seems unstable. I want to change the speed to 100 just until i change the ram. Is it possible to change this speed. the motherboard uses switches to alter cpu speed and fsb speed but when i change it it uses the 7.5 multiplier on 100 giving 750
please help
thanks in advance

I'm sorry to inform you, but Intel processors have a locked multiplier. Setting your fsb to 100 x 7.5 mutiplier gives you 750MHz, there is no way to change the 7.5 to say 10. If your computer seems stable at 133MHz, let it be. You won't ruin anything by running your ram out of spec, uping voltage causes problems. If you really wish to not run your ram out of spec, then you'll have to deal with 750MHz out of a bloody expensive 1000MHz processor.

damnn.. Nice vid card you got there.. hehe.

Thanks, video card and 75GB IBM 75GXP were christmas presents. Guess I had a good christmas, been awhile! It even overclocked well, running the memory at 250MHz DDR, which is an affective 50MHz overclock from nVIDIA's Ultra specs. But, when you look at the 4ns DDR-SDRAM, the 4ns timing indicates that this ram can run at 500MHz without overclocking it. I am afraid my CPU cannot garnish the full potential of this beast, I just wish I had a 1.2GHz Thunderbird. I am saving my money for the Palomino's to come out and rock the CPU world.

I see! and yeahh m8!!.. looks like it's gonna be the video card pushing your CPU to death, not CPU push the video card, lol. ;D
