Can you drop NB multiplier to 8x with a BE?

Both of mine haven't, which was a BIOS bug.
I'll try that KTE and let ya know. The main reason I seem to get better results (at least in my head) with a 250 HT is it keeps my memory @ spec, maybe it's just old habit from the X2.

As far as the 8x NB, this chip WILL do it, at least AOD and CPU-z says that it does. IIRC, it will go down to 7x as well. I can post some screenies if you want.... Were you trying it on 1.13 Bios? Thats what I'm still running..

5 days old what's wrong with you people not keeping us up to day or did I miss the post
I DL'd them Jon, when they went to load it looked like it was just the Cat 8.2 drivers though so I cancelled the install. If you install them let me know if I missed something, and if it helped...

Is it just me, or does it seem like the NIC drivers have some problems?
If I really want to test stability, seems like opening 4-5 tabs in IE and flipping back and forth or opening attachments/pics will cause a crash if the system is the least bit unstable.
