I just built a new system
Asus A7V600 on VIA KT600 400 FSB
1 GB Kingston HyperX PC3700
AMD Athlon XP 3000+ 400 FSB
The first time I visited BIOS, it said that all CPU settings would default to their lowest, for me, 1.05 Ghz. I figured, not so bad, I'll just turn it up to the 2.1 that the XP 3000+ is advertised as.
No juice, I can't seem to get it run past 1.75 Ghz, trying to play with the multiplier and/or the FSB, I just seem to max out at a stable 1.75.
A friend told me it may be my RAM, that it's set to run too high and I'm not meeting the reuqirements, any ideas on if this might be the case, why, and chow I can fix it.
If that isn't the case, then maybe some suggestions, I would like to at LEAST run the computer at its promoted speed, and would like to get a little more out of it if possible.
