Abit K7T-RAID question

[plastick]

Does the K7T accept 266mhz fsb cpus (officially or unofficially)?

If not, anyone know a good place to get a 1.4 using 100mhz fsb?

Thanks

Not officially or otherwise. 😉 If I recall correctly 115FSB was pretty much it.

As for the CPU fs/t or ebay.

I ran a 1.4ghz 266fsb t-bird in the KT7 non-raid version just by changing the multi and fsb manually. Almost all the 1.2-1.4 tbirds allow multi manipulation stock so it is gravy 🙂 Download the last bios if you don't have it so you have higher multis available. I did it with 12.5x112fsb just to prove it would work because people kept repeating the FUD about needing the KT7-A for that CPU. The performance loss due to lower FSB was minimal.

In my BIOS it seems the FSB can go much higher than 115. Is it possible that there is a difference between KT7 and KT7 RAID??

Also, the setting for 133 seems to have an irregular pci clock to match it. Its like...very high.
It's bordering on 50 Mhz..

Following devices are in PCI slots

Ethernet card...whatever brand

2 Voodoo2's (hehe)

and a SB Live

Will any of those have problems at so high of frequency?

Do not run a high fsb, increase the multiplier to reach the desired speed. You are not forced to use 133mhz, it will doubtless boot@100mhz fsb by default using the default multiplier which means it should start off at 1050 before you manually tweak things..
