util to find out my FSB speed?
I have a celeron 2.6 (which runs at up to 400mhz FSB) and an Intel D845HV
motherboard (which has no BIOS settings to adjust or check any of this stuff, but also is supposed to run at up to 400mhz FSB). I had a hardware probing utility which happened to come with a software package tell me I'm only running at 100MHz FSB. I couldn't find a utility to check this on tucows or winfiles.... it doesn't really matter I guess since I have no way to change it, but I'd still like to know.....any pointers? Thanks! |

100 Mhz is the 'true' bus speed of the Celeron. Intel calls it's 400Mhz bus
'quad pumped'. The 533Mhz bus is 133Mhz 'quad pumped' and the 800 Mhz bus is 200Mhz 'quad pumped'. "Rob" wrote in message ...

Ah, thanks for the clarification. I also just came across a motherboard
monitoring utility at Intel's website (Intel Active Monitor http://intel.com/design/motherbd/active.htm ) which indicates 400MHz FSB, so all is well.

The Celeron runs at 4 X the FSB of the motherboard, which is correctly
100MHz. Everything is fine. -- DaveW "Rob" wrote in message ...
