E6750 Help

[Butters]

Hi, got this CPU in an Abit board which in the Bios, it says (installed E6750 2.66GHz)

But the actual processor speed is showing as 2.13Ghz

The multiplier is at 8 and the FSB is as 266

I cant change the multiplier higher than 8 but I can alter the FSB.

Do I put it at 333?

Yes, put the FSV at 333, it's made to run 333 x 8

Strange that it didn't do it itself, did you set optimal defaults in the BIOS?

Ahh, the reason being is because OcUK shipped a board with a BIOS from March

It didn't like the 1333 MHz clock so sat it back

Fortunately a BIOS update from Abits excellent one touch update fried my board because it assumed I was overclocking it and set the BootBlock in place.

******* great!

At least it's sorted now.
