Ok, my duron is sitting at 950 (9x100) right now. i can't seem to break the 1.0ghz (7x133) mark. my temps are fine and everything is stable at 950 @ 1.75 volts, i even tried 1.80 V and it didn't work, what's wrong? is there some settings in the bios i should tweak? like that spread spectrum modulator thing?

thanx.

PS. i'm going to try right now and see if 10x100 works.

edit:
ok, it works at 10x100 and 9.5x105, i can't seem to get past 110 FSB????
how much of a difference is there between 1ghz at 7x133 and 9.5x105?

I'd say there would be a big difference considering the fact that 7x133= ~933mhz:)

Since you're FSB limited, I would say it's either the RAM or the motherboard. Which RAM or MB are you using? Do you have a VIA KT133A or above as the MB chipset?
