hey guys i have an athlon xp-m 2600+ in a creaky old msi k7t-turbo2 which runs sdram. currently i have a 512mb of kingston value ram (pc133).
uh.. would the l12 mod work with this motherboard? i've got a lot of bridge-gap closer stuff and conductive grease from my athlonxp unlocking kit (rip paly 1800+).
what would happen, would the ram be forced to run at 166MHz if i did the 166 mod, or 200MHz?
right now i'm annoyingly underclocked at 1.8xghz (145x12) because i can't post or get into windows with a higher multi. are mobile chip multipliers range-limited?

No, the multiplier aren't limited...

I cannot comment on the board's abilities though :(

The only way to find out if it works is to TRY!!! :D

The cpu supports the whole range of multis as long as the board itself supports it, too.

KX18D Pro II Plus L12 mod gave me a few more FSB (like 3 LOL), but my ram was probably crapping out anyways...235 before L12, 238 after L12.... :shrug:
