Sempron2880+
I've just upgraded my PC to a socket 754 mobo with a Sempron 2800+
processor. It's being reported as running at 1.61 GHz. My question is (for now!) Is that about the right speed being reported? Many thanks

That's the default speed, 8x200. Now what you need to do is raise the FSB to 233, 266, or even 300MHz or higher if your board and ram will support it and you really want to get the most out of the cpu. To overclock the cpu, you'll need to lower the Ht link multiplier and lower the base ram bus speed also if needed. As a general guideline, lower the ram bus the same amount that you raise the FSB clock, and lower the HT multiplier by one notch for every 33MHz you raise the FSB. If you need more help, I'd need to know your MB model or at least which chipset it uses. -- KT133 MB, CPU @2400MHz (24x100): SIS755 MB CPU @2330MHz (10x233) Need good help? Provide all system info with question. My server http://wesnewell.no-ip.com/cpu.php Verizon server http://mysite.verizon.net/res0exft/cpu.htm

Right, seems I've made a mistake on the chipset. The website i bought the
mobo from said it would have the sis chipset, in fact it is the Nvidia Nforce 3 250 chipset. how does this go for overclocking - if the processor is running at the correct speed at 1.6GHz?
