Good news for EPoX 8KHA+ owners

[talldude]

the numbers don't match up, they're off by a small margin. Maybe the prog just rounds them off and that's why u get a small error when multiplying...anyways, that's some crazy stuff. That means that his ram is running at like 210mz minimum...i don't know how u can do that.

Non of u guys even mentioned the Epox mod for higher voltage...The Epoxes i've seen hit 2200MHz have been modded for 2.something volts.
Is it just common knowledge and Im action like a n00b? :P

I really am not puzzled by those high CPU speeds, what makes me wonder is the RAM speed. If I was to use a 1/4 divider on the 266MHZ FSB, that would mean the the bus would be running at 33MHz for PCI (66Mhz, but since its double pumped, its half of that)? ...that would mean the AGP would be inspec...

Bump the FSB a little and the RAM speed actually doubles...I did read that the first Crucial PC1600 modules were PC2100 speeds capable, and the PC2100 doing PC2400 speeds fine...but that PC2700 is for 170Mhz approx. So in order to get to 205MHz FSb, u would need like water cooling for the RAM or something....how do they do that?

Nah, PCI bus isn't double pumped, that's a feature of the DDR memory and the processor.

The reason that people can hit such high front side bus speeds on this board is because the BIOS has a divider for the memory, 3:4 IIRC. So if you're running at 200 MHz FSB, your RAM will be running at 150 MHz. You can disable this by setting the memory timings to "manual", but then you obviously won't be able to hit as high a front side bus.
