im looking for a new motherboard and i like the p4s533, but reading the reviews i came across this


(The BIOS has the option to run the CPU/Memory at various options. 3:4 means async 100/133 (DDR266), 3:5 = async 100/166 (DDR333), 3:6 = async 100/200. The CPU/PCI Frequency can be adjusted at 1Mhz steppings from 100 ~ 166.

when it is 3:4 does that mean that the computer fsb is running at 100 mhz and the memory is running at 133, what about pci and agp, my last mobo had pci,agp lock.

any info would be cool, thanks

HI-
There is no AGP/PCI lock on the P4S533 board (I run one).
You can run the FSB at 133 and the AGP is 66 (1/2) and the PCI is 33 (1/4) or you can run the FSB at 100 and the AGP is 66 (2/3) and the PCI is 33 (1/3).


Yes, the 3:4 means the FSB is 100 and the DDR is 133 (100/3=33x4=133), there is also 4:5 available if you can run 133fsb (DDR333)
