I have an old motherboard with a max multiplier of 4 and and max bus of 75. Someone told me that setting the newer AMD chips to a 2x multiplier will give you 6x(like setting 1.5 and getting 3.5). So I stuck a K6-3+ 450MHz in my old motherboard and set the multiplier to 2(really 6) and the bus to 75. And voilà it worked. Sandra's benchmark barely showed a proformance drop at the 75MHz bus. This is great!! So my question is are there any other tricks to getting a motherboard to run at a higher multiplier or bus speed then intended? Also what is the speed of the AMD CPUs that this will work? My friend said the k6-2 266MHz and up but he wasn't sure. Is this correct? Thanks!
