    Man, i donīt know where to start... great CPU and FSB, SPI is not bad

    Is 6GHz feasible? I know that it could be demanding too much of the old vanilla, but can she make it?
    Sorry for my poor english.

    For Spi1M you should use Bios 603 , your CPU will not be recognized but it's faster for spi1m.

    For Spi32M you should try 803

    Sorry if I'm being offtopic, but could you list the mods you have on the p5k and, maybe, how they are done - a link if they are posted somewhere, please.

    Thanks!
