Does anyone have this board?

My question is - Can you not run your SDRAM at 133MHz while your CPU is on a 100 fsb? I know other motherboards that have the FSB+33 or the FSB+PCI option but this bios does not seem to offer any of those options.

Thanks,
MC

i have one!

i beleive so, i have to set my memory on a 100fsb because i have 1 128 pc100 mem and 1 64mb (pc133) memory module, if i don't set the memory to lock on 100 mhz i do not see my 128 since it cannot run that high, i run my chip at 7 X 133 933 (it is a 700 fc pIII)

Mat,
The SE6 defaults to the lowest sync, 100mhz if any of the two are 100.
I don't know if you can unsync the two. Even if you do, you will attain a small advantage because you probably will still have to set your cas/ras settings to 333, where your real performance gain is achieved.
edit: Sorry, Invalid comment. I am speaking of memory, not processor/memory. That I don't know about as I have both 133.
