Any one try setting the HT width to 16x and the HTmax IN/OUT to 16x...WHILE using a Phenom

If the Bios defaults any of these 4settings to 8x your losing performance/CPU,comunication with the Pci-E link with..These new bioses seem to cap the linkwidths for everything when set to 8x..

If you have the Option to cahnge it in Bios @ stock settings it would be under HT link width and HT width...CHANGE all Link Widths TO 16x in BIOS..

Youll see what im talking about.

Ive noticed the 3Dmarks scores posted ABOVE are like only 5000 if that,, ....This is a sign the HT link to PCi-E is being capped with the Bioses. Especially if you have a Bios that the( HTlink and width Autodefaults) even if you set it!

It would be interesting to see if it can be set on the M3A as i can do this with the TA770 and Stock Bios @ Stock clocks.
