Question Re Over/Underclocking a SuperMicro P6DBE
The P6D series has a 100MHz FSB and will take two PIIIs or PIIs.
CPU/Bus ratios are set by four jumpers on the mainboard. The possible ratios range from 3 to 8. I want to install and run a matched pair of Intel PIIIs,Slot 1, 933MHz/133MHz. Intel has locked their CPU/Bus ratios at 7. Several questions; 1) What is a good choice for setting the CPU/Bus ratio with the four mainboard jumpers? 2) Since Intel has locked in their 7 ratio, is the mainboard jumper configuration/choice irrelevant and ignored? 3) Because 7 x 100MHz FSB=700MHz, will the PIIIs run at 700MHz instead of 933MHz? In other words Underclocked? 4) What other problems/issues might occur with this approach? TIA for any advice, Lew R |
