Hi,
I have recently modded my asus m/board to allow overclocking. I got the details from another site and once carried out it appeared to work ok. I can now alter the BIOS stabily upto 1745Mhz (XP2000+ chip). However, even tho the bios says 1745Mhz, WCPUID v3.1 still reads the speed as 1666Mhz and the system clock as 133Mhz (should be 140 according to the bios setup).
Has anyone came across this problem before and is there a solution. The system appears to be running faster but all the benchmark programs indicate no performance change at all.
If it helps the memory being used is PC2100 (generic) and cannot really cope (CRUCIAL PC2100 on the way). Can my memory be dragging my entire system down or is the problem somewhere else.
Any help would be great
