hi..i got a question about locking the PCI-E frequency when changing the FSB frequency.
here is my condition:
- my proc is pentium D 2.66, i change the fsb to 150 means OC to 3.0Ghz
-in bios, the setting for PCI-E is set at auto, from wat i heard, it is better to set PCI-E at 100Mhz and PCI at 33.3Mhz if we OC right?..but when i change the fsb to 150 and set the PCI-E to 100 and restart the pc...the bios automatically set both fsb and the PCI-E bac to the original one..wondering why?..

*for ur info, the mobo i using is Gigabyte which can be found on my sig.

the 2nd question is..is there any harm if we just put the PCI-E to auto?..thanx

hmm..but wat i heard is PCI-e frequency is 100Mhz wor...ya.i think bcoz of this auto reset then i cant seem to lock my pci-e at 100Mhz

hmm..i dun get wat u mean..

hmmm..i tried a few times..with this pci locked at 100mhz on my mobo..i cant get higher oc , the max i can get is 2.99ghz only..how come ar?..any idea?

hehe..finally manage to get 3.0GHz with my pcie frequency locked...but have to set it abit higher, around 101 or 102 MHz

currently manage to run my PD at 3.4Ghz...after doing some manipulation to the DRAM:FSB ...i think somehow my mobo will limit the DRAM freq..so if i lower down means got larger space to increase my fsb..am i correct?..hehe...correct me ya i am wrong..
