with a multiplier of 12x on the P4M when put into a workstation setup, does that affect the speed of the CPU itself or does the fsb raise itself to compensate? lets say youve got a 1.7g and it defaults to 12 x 100...1200mhz. would that be true? or would it automatically boost the fsb up to 12 x 142?
also, why does it automatically default down to a 12x multiplier? what actually causes this to happen within the chip? seems really coincidental that this has occured so rapidly in the OC community. seems almost planned.
anyways, any good input here is well respected. thanks again.
