Will these CPUs work ok under my Abit TH7-II? The problem is that my RDRAM either by the actual RAM chips themselves or by the clock generators that are on the motherboard can't reach 133 at 4x settings. If I can achieve 133 under 3x settings, would that mean that the 533 fsb chips would work fine? Thanks in advance.
 
I ran 2 systems with the same MB and matter of fact still have one but back in it's original box where its been sitting for a year. Anyways i had them running with 533fsb chips with PC800 RDRAM. I had Samsung ram which after overclocking was actaully running at PC1066 speeds. It did however run very hot (the memory that is). The other ran with PC1066 Sasumg RDRAM but that was more difficult to setup. I had to start it with the PC800 first, setup some bios settings and then restart with the PC1066.
