A8N SLI Deluxe PCI Clock Question??

[Elusiv1]

I'm getting a message when I load up Sandra telling me and I quote "PCI clock is set to track HT bus, if you adjust the clock for HT bus, the PCI bus will change" what does this mean?????? Thanks

Is telling you, you have not locked the Pci clock speed!!

Do this: Enter the Bios and....

go to ADVANCED > JUMPERFREE CONFIGURATION:

Set the Overclock profile to Manual

PCI Express Clock: 100 Mhz (always, this is how we lock the Pci-Ex speed)

PCI Clock Synchronization mode: 33´33 Mhz (always, this is how we lock the Pci bus speed)

If you are using SATA HDDs connect them to SATA ports 3 and 4.

Good luck!

Also, the ASUS A8N-SLI has a slight quirk, in that unless you set the FSB to above 200MHz in the Jumperfree Configuration (you want to set it to at least 201MHz), you'll keep getting that message.

... and there's nothing wrong with that. At 200 MHz sysclock (there is no FSB!), PCI frequency is at 33.33 MHz anyway.
