Multiplier question: bios or hardware... ???
I own an old AOpen AX64 MoBo. I know a bios update can't give me a wider
range of possible FSB that Bios offers because these are the only ones supported by the clock generator of my motherboard (ICWorks W144H). But, is the clock multiplier a bios issue or is it related to hardware as this is the case for FSB? The Max multiplier for this motherboard is 8, Unicore software tell me that there is a new bios for this MoBo but never replied my mail when I asked what they mean by "support for faster CPU" so I want to know if this is possible or not. Thanks |

I don't want to overclock by changing multiplier, I want to change my CPU
because the one I have is dead and I wish to know if this board can support cpu's with multipliers higher than 8. "Bougon" a écrit dans le message de ... I own an old AOpen AX64 MoBo.
