yeah i have the same and i get 450 when i run 110 FSB .... simple answer is its just too high. how far do you expect it to go. even on the bx6 rev 2 when i was overclocking i couldnt get the 300a to run stable on a 112 FSB no matter what cooling i used. Now your trying to do it with the BP6. You have to remember that Dual motherboards are far less stable than singles and you will just have to live with it. I think ya doing pretty well with it if you can run them about 450... i mean ... do you actually want a stable system.

I certainly hope your running NT4 to take advantage of your dual cpu`s and what ever you do .... dont bother with WIN 2000 RC1 as it just aint stable and is a nightmare if you have a SBLIVE and a TNT 2 Ultra.

Do what i do and run NT4 and just use win98 for D3D games. You can still run OpenGL games such as Quake and Kingpin http://www.sysopt.com/forum/smile.gif

I noticed the same thing on my board I'll bet if you set the bus freq to either 66,75 or 83 it will come up with the right numbers...
dont know why it does it, might be a bios bug...
