help with fsb/multiplier

[Jeff Bolton]

hey guys, have a question that should be pretty easy to answer...i've been toying around with different fsb/multiplier settings in my BIOS..both of these settings have the same output: 108x12.5 and 135x10.0....is their any difference, is one better? right now i have it set at 135x10.0...is it better that way since my fsb is faster? any answer would be great!

thanks,
jeff

Yep...mainly because you have your RAM at a faster speed that way. It's also best if you have the fastest memory timings possible, cause those are better to have than a higher FSB (since with them off, you won't be able to increase the FSB more than the amount needed to make the memory speed the same as with the timings up :))
