Official GIGA P35-S3/DS3/DS3R/DS3P/DS4/DQ6 bios/info thread

[persh]

I have the DS3R board with a Q6600. In my BIOS the multiplier is set to 9 but the FSB is showing 200mhz. Why is that? When I run CPU-Z I get the correct FSB of 266.7mhz.

Could this be a BIOS issue? I see the F5E bios update is available ... any good?

Thanks, it did the trick. But I wonder why was it set to 200mhz by default and why cpu-z was reporting the correct 266 number.
