I decided to change the multiplier and FSB setting in my bios around and was a little suprised to see the results. I wasn't trying to overclock and the settings that I used equated to be close the the initial setting of 2158. It was set up for 13x 166. I have an AMD XP 2700 and am running with half decent pc3200 ram. I did some benchmarking and found that the best results where when i set it up as 11x 190, which is actually 40MHz lower. So the question is, is it better to have a high multiplier and lower FSB or higher FSB and lower multiplier? I mean i can read the results for myself, but in real applications does it even matter? Thanks.
