I just bought the MSI K7N2 board! Need help
I just bought the board and I dont really have experience with MSI, i was an ASUS owner for the last 3 years, A7V, A7V133, A7V333, and the A7V8X... These boards were user freindly so I could overclock with ease... With this new board I cant even find where the multiplyer is in the bios... Can anyone send me some tips on maximizing the performance for this board. Heres my specs:
Athlon XP 2700+ (w/Volcano 7 cooling 30-33 degrees)
MSI K72 N-force 2(25-31 degrees w/ 2 Intake fans,2 exhaust fans)
512 Mgs of PC3200 Corsair XMS cs2(1t-2-2-2-5 timings w/heat spreader)
ATI 9700 Pro(w/artic silver 3 and heatsink/fan made by Thermaltake@380/670)
60 Gig Maxtor 7200 RPM ata/133 & 40 Gig Western Digital 7200 RPM ata100
