I have a P3 650 on an Abit BE6-2 rev 1.2 and my goal is 923 (925?) and the only way I could get it stable at first was to set the core voltage to 1.95v...but then I saw this BIOS setting: "In-Order Queue Depth"
The description that it gave was like "8 gives a better performance while 1 gives more stability" so I tried changing it from 8 to 1. Now I am currently at 1.85v (will go lower later) and everything is fine. I used Sisoft Sandra to test the performance hit and the cpu benchmarks show no change. I thought to myself, this is great! =)
However, w/ the memory benchmarks, I got half the speeds I had with the setting at 8. What do you guys think?
1) Change it back to 8 and 1.95v
2) Leave it at 1 and try to go lower than 1.85
3) Give up on 923 Mhz and just settle with 866@1.65v (setting @ 8)
