fsb + multiplier optimization questions for the 1.2ghz tbird question

i got the 1.2 ghz t-bird (200mhz one) (its arriving very soon!)
so im assuming that its gonna have a 12x multiplier, and 100mhz ddr bus, right?
would i be able to decrease the multiplier and increase the fsb so i would get something like
9.0 x 133 = 1200mhz
or
9.5 x 133 = 1264mhz
or any higher?
because i've seen that higher fsb speeds show better performance
thanx

If your Tbird is unlocked (L1 connected) and your MB let you change the multiplier then yes. If not you have to connect the L1. There're lots of way to do that, your choice.

I have a 1.2 Tbird (came unlock) on Abit KT7A-R and I bump it to 9.5x133/33 right now. It's running very stable under win98SE, though the load temperature is a bit on the high side (46C). If I can bring the temp down to about ~40, I would bump it up around 10x140/35 🙂
 
im getting the asus a7v133 mobo... it has the mulriplier adjust thing..
so my chance of getting it to run at 9 x 133 will be 100%?
 
It will run at 9x133...no problems..you may need to increase the voltage from default. Alos the temps will be higher on the Asus because of the way they are read...so do not compare them to another mobo.
