What does -- AMD Athlon 64, 1050 MHz (5 x 210) -- mean? 1050? Is that the FSB? Because it's a 2.2Ghz CPU.

 

[alvino]

210 is your front side bus, I think and the 5x is your multiplier.

 

[mighty_chick]

it sure is

 

[ownage]

thats odd. If you multiply it out..it becomes 1050 check the bios and tell us what it says. I think everest is wrong.

 

[alvino]

Yeah, even my 3400+ is higher than that!

Tell you what the bios says about what? The FSB or the CPU speed?

 

[Methost]

Bios says CPU speed is 2310 (I am OC'd 5%)

Is it possible that Everest is giving false readings because I have "cool and quiet" activated? And under low load applications, the CPU is dialed down. (I think thats how "cool and quiet" works anyway.

 

[alvino]

No...Cool & Quiet is to automatically control the CPU fan, not the CPU.

 

[Methost]

Hm ... ok then what is Everest telling me there?

 

[setishock]

Um...

Cool and quiet does run the processor speed.
