Hi, gang:
Overclocking an E6300 on a Gigabyte 945G chipset mobo (GA-945GCM-S2C). It's a backup PC and a Hackintosh experiment box.
I can pass MEMTEST and boot into/run XP at bus speeds up to 350 MHz (from 266 stock for the E6300). Running Orthos now...
Problem is, there's some scuttlebut about this board not adequately locking the PCI-E bus, and I don't want to risk corrupting my hard drives, etc.
I need software that will read out / test / display these bus freqs...and I can't find ANYTHING that will do it... I've tried Sandra, Everest, SetFSB, Clockgen, and CPU-Z. They read the other busses just fine...but not PCI-E or PCI...
Will anything actually test these bus speeds?
Thanks,
