I recently put together an AMD system - 1.4ghz, 830lmr (I know PcChips - I was on a budget) The system runs fine and benchmarks at the top end, however Si-Soft warns the chipset isn't designed to handle the FSB at 133, if I lower the FSB the system reports the chip at 650mhz. Any thoughts, should I be concerned? Temp seems stable around 77 F or so. 256Mb DDR
(wasn't sure which forum was most appropriate)

Went to PCchips site, didn't see any model 830lmr. Closest I found was M830LR.

If your board IS the M830LR the problem is that the FSB is TOO LOW not TOO HIGH. The M830LR supports AMD K7 Athlon/Duron 500M~1.4GHz CPUs with bus frequency at 200/266MHz.

Hope this helps.

You are only supposed to post in one forum. Your post in Benchmarking is the correct one, and the others shouldn't have been created. Read the forum rules, please.
