Maxell, Re: Boot Magazine don't agree with me But pairnet do. hardware.pairnet.com Anyway, there is a few things puzzle me while reading their review : The system they run is from AMD which runs at 333Mhz with 95Mhz bus(just like what Tom has too). Why not just have it at 100*3.5 to give 350Mhz ? Beside, it seems that there is special thing done on the board to achieve this 95Mhz, does that mean SS7 board on the market cannot get up to 333Mhz(can one set the board to run at 95Mhz) ? One more thing, why overclock a marked 300Mhz CPU to 333Mhz and not just ship them a 333Mhz one and overclock it to 350 to get away from the strange MB tweak ? Gary
