Max processor speed in my MSI 6309

wolfman

I have a Packard Bell system here which is a couple of years old and in fairness has been quite reliable. The board is a Micro-Star Inc. MS-6309 1.0. It has a PIII 733 chip fitted. I'm just wondering what is the max speed I could fit in this board without starting to mess around in unknown territory for me. Just a straight swap. I have 384 Mb Ram fitted also.

you can change the fsb to 138 in bios should speed things up a bit

Hi

Thanks for the reply. I dunno. I got the details here on the MSI site but it's all terrible complicated to me!!

Also, thanks for the other tip, but I wouldn't have a clue what to do.

1.13ghz is the fastest

about bios fsb, press delete or f2 when you swithc on your pc, and look for fsb, it will be at 133 or maybe, default, setting it to 138 will speed things up, but could all go very wrong

Thanks for the reply.
What do all the ratio figures mean though?
