I bought my computer from the computershow, that is a athlon 1400mhz
and it gets me the reading from above, i'm posting it's spec to see if the default of the system is correct.....seen like the bus speed is high and the system clock is high too. what do you think.....my computer is running very stable at this setting....

Now Im not the worlds best techno geek-BUT what I see is a 5x mulitplier and a 280 bus speed-thats how it is getting 1400,If it was a 266 bus and a 5x muliplier that would make it run 1.33---It COULD be an overclocked processor--this is my opinion based on my knowlege-which isnt perfect---

Hi Gamecock,

Those numbers seem out of whack to me too. I've never heard of a motherboard that has a FSB that high. Normally, a T-Bird would have settings of 100MHz FSB times a multiplier of 14 or a 133MHz FSB times a multiplier of 10.5 to get the 1400MHz speed.

What kind of motherboard is that?

motherboard is a msi (ms-6330) modified for gateway computer, when i went into the cmos bios, it show that it is a athlon 1300mhz, but the operating system showing that it's a athlon thunderbird 1400mhz....like i said, i been using for 4 months now without any problen at that high of a fsb and clock speed... i don't know that maybe it could be a overclock cpu....
