P3 800EB on an Asus P3B-F

fythis · 10-11-01, 01:08 PM

Quick question for everyone here... I just put a retail box Slot 1 P3 800EB in my girlfriend's machine. It's got a Asus P3B-F with a Geforce 3 and 256 megs of PC133 RAM. And the board's running the BIOS rev 1006. The board will only autodetect the thing with a multiplier of 6.0x, and the FSB at 100. If I turn the FSB up to 133 on that board with both the processor and the RAM being made to run at that speed, am I going to end up frying anything? I've already installed and configured all the hardware like that, and it boots into windows and runs 3D apps just fine. I just want to make sure that it's not going to crap out on me in a week or something. :-)

Oh, and it's a Slot 1 processor, not a socket with an adapter.

No you won't frie anything, you might wanna check your PCI divider in BIOS it should be set at 1/4.
