Recommended Posts

Dear All,

I am about to put together a retail 1.8a P4, Abit IT7 MAX (DDR and Soft Menu III) and need to know what parameteres should I use in the BIOS?

These include:

CPU Multiplier

CPU Votlage

and RAM <---(this part is where I am am NOT familiar with)

Thanks in advance.

OK, first try upping the FSB from 100 to the next highest setting until you can no longer get into windows

then up the DDR voltage and the CPU voltage a setting up and try again. Repeate the process till you hit a limit

What is the speed of your RAM, if it PC2100 (DDR266) it has a speed of 133mhz so you should have no problem running that 100mhz FSB P4 up to that level

Also know where your CMOP reset jumper is on the motherboard in case you get locked out of your BIOS.

Read this first however (does not matter that its AMD)
