• Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
    Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

Just wondering if anyone knew why this might be happening.

My specs are listed below. When I set my fsb in the Bios, when I save and reboot, it always comes out 1 less than what I set it to, i.e, most recently, I set the fsb to 449 and everything reads as 448.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Rich

It's rounded. When you see 266MHz FSB, it truely something like 266.7. You always get .x. If the system thought .x is closer to 8 than 9, it will round down. Anyway, YIKES! on that FSB.
 
I set mine at 400, it reads 399, set it at 401, reads 400 but at 402 it reads 402. Must be a DS3 thing, nothing to worry about :)
