    K6-III+ Help, bus clock???

    your manual with have the settings for 2X (which will automatically run as 6X). In case you do not have a manual get one from epox website which shoukld have one. If you cannot get one post again as someone will be able to tell you, i have a g2 which is prob the same but i will not say the 2X...

    K6-III+ Help, bus clock???

    because almost all g5's cannot do 112 bus. the cache can do 103 maybe. Some of the latest g5's can do 112 but only the very latest. Thats how i can say that it is likely the cause.

    K6-III+ Help, bus clock???

    its the cache, it cannot handle the 112mhz bus. you could try and get an intermediate bus using programs such as cpucool or softfsb.

    k62 on old board, can't tell if L2 cache is enabled for real

    are you sure that the motherboard supports cxt core. The fact that it boots at 6X means nothing because it is detwermined by the cpu, not the motherboard. Perhaps there are a few k6-2 optimisations not being used because the bios has some dificulty identifying the chip. Goto amdzone forums...

    CPU Freezes up when playing games and movies

    don't use diamond drivers - use nvidia 2.08 drivers (lots of people use nvidia drivers instead of manufacturer drivers - particularly those with diamond cards). get the drivers from riva3d. 2.08 is very good for super 7 (this is what i use), contains the 3dnow optimisations and is before the...

    What's with AMD's K6-2 line of CPUs? Are the FPUs really that slow?!!

    i don't see why the cpu would limit the resolution. if you are cpu limited then you can increase the resultion without loosing any fps. your problems are the v/c (for some games banshee is terrible) or caused by something else - i went from a m2 300 with v2 to a k6-2-400 and it increased my...

    K6-III+ $54 :-)

    be carefull on k6-3+. They do not work in all motherboards - check out amdzone forum for a list of possible working motherboards. My k6-3+ 450 does 560 without increasing the voltage. I suspect if i wanted it to that it would do 600 (at least) and maybe as much as 672 (112 bus and lucky).

    Want a K6-III+ 500 Mhz? check this out

    i am currently running on one of the non existent k6-3+ cpu's. I just got a k6-3+ 450 which i have overclocked to 550 and i have not even increased the voltage. Perhaps the cost analysis depends on where you are - here in australia a k6-3+ cpu goes for 171.5$. 650 duron about the same plus...
