Hello. I got this mobo a little while ago with an AMD64 3000+ . My temps are pretty low i think (System 12C IDLE 15C LOAD - CPU 29C IDLE 34C LOAD) with stock CPU cooling and i have 7x80mm fans. Now when i go into my BIOS i only have an option to overclock in MHz. There is no multiplier or FSB clocker. It only says CPU (200) clock in MHz and AGP (66) clock in MHz. So i donno what to do. Right now i know it runs 10x200 I just wanna kick it up a bit, but i donno if i would have to overclock my RAM also. not real sure if the CPU number is my FSB or just overclock in MHz like it says. but i can only increase by 1 MHz per click heh. So do i just need to pump it up with that number and leave my RAM bus alone or what? Thanks.
 
I have the same board. It has trouble reporting correct temperatures, huge thread at amdforums about that.

Anyway, it's an awesome overclocker. The 200MHz setting is the HTT, bump that up.

Also, the multiplier change is there, I just can't remember what it's called.

Winflash the latest BIOS, it's been better for me :)
 
Left my bios to original. Raised all my voltages, left mem on auto and set fsb to 250. Runs smoooooth as silk.
 
Yea, i noticed the temps seemd backwards, thats the way i put them up is backwards heh.
