I have a Gigabyte GA-K8NXP-9 motherboard. I have a 939 Athlon64 3500+ chip plugged in. It runs with a multiplier of 11 - chip runs at 2200Mhz. Once the CPU prices drop, I am thinking of pluging in a X2 4400+ (runs at 2200MHz) or Opteron 175.
In the manual there is the usual (but not useful) marketing comments that the board 'Supports core frequencies in excess of 3000+ and faster'. In the BIOS, I cannot set the multiplier higher than 11.
My question is: is this 11x automatically set as the highest based in the installed chip and could be higher with a diferent chip, or is this the max I can go and therefore stuck with a x2 4400+ or an Opteron 175?
