Does anyone have any experience with the ASUS P/I-P55T2P4 Motherboard, with an Intel P133 (SU073) CPU? I checked the 'Overclock' site (http://sysdoc.pair.com/overclock.html) and it talks about having to run at 83MHz bus speed vs 66Mhz because of Intel disabling the BF1 pin in the CPU? I checked out the ASUS web site, for the tech docs on that particular motherboard, I can find no reference to a setting for an 83Mhz bus, so I'm either blind or I just can't do it with this motherboard... It does say that it only affects 10% of the motherboards, so when I checked the ASUS site, I noticed that the only setting difference that I can find between the 133 and the 166 is the multiplier...raising it to 2.5x on my board doesn't seem to make any difference (rc5-client -m still shows around 128keys/sec), so I think I might have one of those CPUs affected by the BF1 pin disabling :( Anyone know more?
