A8N-SLI shows hyperbus at 2x no matter what?????

Hey, i am like everyone else in that i am flashing bios to see what works best. Well, when i flashed to some bios, i think it was 1003.7, it screwed up my hyperbus. It shows the multiplier is set to 2 in sandra, even though i have it set to 4 in the bios. So i flashed back to 1002, and it used to display the hyperbus fine in sandra, but even though i flashed back and set everything to default, it shows 2x1005 resulting in 2010 for hyperbus. So i flashed to the new 1004sd.001 and now it shows 2x490 for a total of 980 in the hyperbus. i have my fsb at 245, thats where its getting the 490 from. WTF!! No matter what i do, the hyperbus wont show what its supposed to. I will say that the performance didnt drop or anything, but i cant stand this anymore. Can anyone help?

Sandra was develop for and best used on Pentiums, I think several of the readings are just bogus.
For example Sandra's memory bandwidth benchmark shows all AMD boards running dual channel as "Channels=1" when all other utilites show dual channel. I guess since Intel's don't run dual channel Sandra hasn't been updated to recognize it.

I wouldn't worry about it, if you notice Asus's own AI booster shows some crazy numbers for FSB. As long as your performance is okay and benchmark scores are normal, your fine.

Just seems weird that at one point it showed it corectly and now it doesnt at all.......but, my performance is still top notch!

Yeah sandra's system info shouldn't even be looked at in my opinion... The only thing I use it for is to determine how smaller adjustmens in odd a64 tweaker mem timing settings due to memory bandwidth...
