See in CPU-Z (version 1.36) in the "mainboard" tab, at the bottom where it has Graphic Interface... you with me so far?
Right first box has version - mine being PCI-Express
Second box has Link Width - mine says 1x ???
third box has Max supported - mine says 16x
Does that mean that somehow my PCIE card is running at 1x speed? or is it a CPU-Z screw up?
I'm sure my other machine with the asrock and 7600gt says 16x in both boxes... i will have to check that.
I really do hate this Asus board with a vengance!!! Asrock is so much better than asus!!!!
For some reason if I up my FSB the system seems to randomly freeze... Doesn't matter how I overclock it.. anything about 220FSB and you get this random freezing.. sometimes its minutes, sometimes hours after reboot.
I've done all the usual, changed HTT multi to lowest, ram on divider etc... Seriously thinking of flogging this Asus board. I mean ok it can take me upto 2.8gig on an X2-4200, but if it randomly freezes what good is it?
The asrock dual used to run all day at 235FSB on 1.4V. You guys think it could be a fault with the board? i've done a couple of reinstalls to see if it was that, but no change. I'm sitting at stock speeds just now, and it seems to be fine.
But yeah most importantly, about the PCI-E link speed... is it actually 1x and if it is.. how do I change it? I'm sure i have almost all the settings at auto in bios.
