    Red face PCI multiplier to high

    I bought myself an ASUS A7 Pro for my Duron 700.

    Thing is, SiSoft Sandra claims that the PCI bus is running at 51Mhz instead of 33. As this board is set to jumperless ( I like things Easy !) I can't actually check what's going on.

    I did think about doing the jumpers manualy but they lose the plot in the manual when they claim an 8.0x multiplier for a 700 chip. (page 23 for those of you with this board.)

    So am have I actualy got a problem here or am I just being paranoid.

    BTW, the board is quick, not exhibiting any problems as such, I'm just worried I may cause a problem in the future.

    Use another benchmarking program to double check results. While I use SiSoft Sandra, I have found it to give incorrect data from time to time. Example- it says I have 156MB RAM in one place (correct) and 256MB in another.
