Athlon 1200@1556 on Kt7-Raid?

[dhollcroft]

I currently have an Athlon 1200@1456 on a Kt7-Raid. I have ran it at 1500 but the fsb is a little too high and it causes some stability issues. If I physically make this processor seem as a 1400 by opening/closing bridges will the bios assign a 14x multiplier so that i can still increase the FSB and further overclock this processor? It is an AYHJA-Y stepping which should have good potential.

Yes, obviously.

Matter of fact, that's what everyone does to bypass the high FSB speeds that can mess with your PCI cards and hard drives!

I wasn't sure because abit says the board only supports 1400s with L1 bridges open. The 1200 i have now has all the L1 bridges closed. So if i open them i wasn't sure i would still be able to overclock with FSB. Just sounds kind of funny to me i guess.

Does an Athlon 1400 multiplier show up int the bios as "12.5 and above" but is actually a 14x multiplier? I was skeptical about modifying the processor because i see a 1400 option but with fixed FSB settings...not good... I want a 14x multiplier and FSB adjustment....Help!!!!!

C'mon dudes, there has to be some of you still out there with this "old" hardware. I need someone to tell me how they're athlon 1.4Ghz shows up in the bios and if they can overclock with FSB.

I too have a kt7raid would like to put an XP in there and set to 14x
P.S. what would be bridge setting for the 14x (could there be a 15x setting also?)
