K6-2 @ 133MHz Bus

Would there be any reason why I couldn't run my k6-2 at a 133MHz bus? It shouldn't cause any damage since technically i'm not overclocking it. Correct?
 
well if you go 133 from 100 it is overclocking it...

u can drop the multiplier down... limitation includes pci card that can't do 133/3 bus speed, i dont think there is any /4 divider on a k6-2 mobos....

agp problems... thats about it... but the heat will probably kill you before the limitations..
 


<< I don't think most Socket7 motherboard support a 133MHz clock >>



I'm with the above, and in order to run at 133, the PCI must have the 1/4 divder (133/4 = 33Mhz), while the K6-2 board have teh 1/3 divider (100/3 = 33Mhz or 133/3 = 44Mhz), not to mention the AGP which runs on the 2/3 divider on 100Mhz (100*2/3 = 66Mhz), if you boost to 133, you end up with 88Mhz on AGP. Therefore you overclock your PCI bus and AGP bus, which can damage cards and corrupt data on the IDE controller, and not all cards can handle such a boost in clock.

I have never heard of a SS7 Movo that had the option to run at 133fsb, if there was the option than it would be just like on the BX, in other words, you would be dealing with the same issues that people had on the BX133.
