overclocking soltek nforce3

[NiN1111]

I finally got my new computer from neweggs working and everything seems to be running fine. I do have a question on overclocking though. In the bios, it gave me the option to adjust the "cpu overclock in mhz", with the default set at 200. What is that, the fsb? And is there a way to adjust the cpu multiplier?

thanks

EDIT: Oh, and there's also an option to adjust the "HT frequency", HT standing for hypertransport. The choices are 1x, 2x, 3x, 4x, and 5x. Is that the cpu multiplier?

There is no FSB in the true sense of the word with Athlon 64 since the memory controller is on the chip. "CPU overclock in mhz" is how to OC the CPU. CPU multiplier is adjusted in BIOS "frequency/voltage control" as "CPU ratio". This value times CPU overclock value gives the CPU clock speed. HT frequency is the multiplier for hypertransport or HTT. CPU overclock in mhz setting times the HT frequency gives the HTT mhz.
