Altering L6 bridges necessary for ocing???

[cnhoff]

Hi,

is it right that the L6 bridges determine the multiplier at startup (1GHz CPU => *10), before the bios can change it? So, e.g. a 1GHz Athlon (all L1 and L7 bridges closed), should certainly not boot if I use a FSB of let's say 140 MHz, cause it would have to run at 1400 MHz!

Can anyone tell me what L6 bridges I have to open/close in order to get a "safe" bootup multiplier of around 7?

Thanks for your help

Your 1 gig L6 bridges look like this

If you reconfigure to . | | | : this will default the speed to 7X which should be a good starting point for 133 plus FSB's

Edited to correct bridge error, thanks Dick Doc !!

daddyg

shoudnt the L6 bridge look like this . I I I : for 7x

also do you need to to alter L3 or L4 bridges to alter multiplier?

how about starting at even lower multiplier say to 5x . I I : I

will this improve start up on higher fsb ?
