I just put together a new Epox EP-8RDA3I motherboard, a new AMD Athlon Barton 2600+ processor, and 512MB (2x256) OCZ PC3200 cas2.5 dual channel memory.

Problem:
The bios shows the processer as a AMD 2000+ processer. In addition, the system seems to be sluggish. I ran some performance tests and it is not performing where it should be. I have downloaded and loaded all the latest drivers from Epox, including the latest Bios.

Any ideas?

Go into BIOS and check the FSB. I'm thinking it's at 133 but s/b 166.
