Hi, I'm not sure where to put this... overclocking or memory... so I'll post it here for now.

I have a 1.33 athlon XP running on a epox 8KHA+, I ran it at 153 fsb rock solid at stock voltages since 2001 with 512mb of Corsair XMS2400. I just got some OCZ pc3200 with a copper heatspreader and I decided to try and get a bit more out of this PC to tide me over until I upgrade this mobo/cpu.

I have it at 162fsb very stable and I was doing the burnin test in Sisoft Sandra for a few hours. I decided to benchmark the memory bandwidth and I noticed that it was slower than a stock kt266a running pc2100?!?

So I opened up CPU-z and I noticed that my ram frequency was running slower than 133. I didn't think my board had an option to do that... if thats even an option.

Here is a screenshot:

If any of you have any comments or suggestions please post them. I would appreciate it more than you could know!

And yes I have been out of the pc loop for a while, sadly my A64 laptop thrashes my desktop in everything except 3D performance (mobile 9600 vs 9600PRO at 438/660)
 
you ARE running 1:1 correct?

sorry if it's in the screenshot..but I can't read this thing for some reason
 
I am pretty sure I am, I have always been 1:1 before.

I've never seen an option for that in the bios, and believe me I've spent alot of time in there. :) I'm sure my mobo has no option to change that.
