Help with AMD 2200+ Settings on GA-7N400-L1?
G'day all,
I just bought a GA-7N400-L1 with an AMD 2200+ XP cpu, and 256mb of 2700 ddr ram, in a new standard tower case. I'm upgrading in bits and pieces, so I'm still running my old 32mb TNT2.
Gigabyte provides Easytune to tweak with the various settings, but i'm not sure how far I can push it, correct temps, etc. The only bios option i've changed is the FSB which is set to 133 (which i'm told is correct). How reliable is easytune, and what sort of speeds can I get to? Is it even worth it? I don't have any extra cooling - power source fan, cpu fan, and TNT2 fan is all I have.
Also there are options in the BIOS to monitor cpu temperature and such, but I have heard that it's not always accurate with AMD.
Any thoughts or advice would be appreciated.
Cheers,
