Building a new machine and haveing trouble setting up the motherboard it is an Abit KT7 running a t-bird 1GHZ with Kingston 256 pc133 ram. Any help on how I should set up the processor speed If I set it to 1gig it gives me a multiplier of ten. Also how should I set up the front side and PCI bus? I don't want to overclock it I want to keep it stable and within norm. settings I'm not sure how to configure the motherboard Any and all help would be greatly appreciated
Just leave the multiplier at 10. At that setting you are running the AGP and PCI bus speeds at 66 and 33 respectively.
I posted a reply to this topic in the AMD forum if I remember correctly.
Please only post a request once as it confuses the issue and can actually conmfuse the poster.
My reply was that if you have good reliable memory run the chip at 100/133. If you really wanted to gice your chip a work out then check the L1 contacts on the chip. Amd have let a few of the newer 1Gz chips out with the L1 contacts intact for running at 133 FSB. If yours has the L1 contacts closed or you feel like doing it with a pencil (carefully though) then your chip should run OK at 133/133. This really should opnly be attempted for guarenteed stability on the KT7A-RAID board, although it will work on the std KT7-RAID.
