| nope a 2800 runs @ 2083, fsb 166 don't go comparing that to intel coz, it's faster than a 2800 mhz intel amd doens't do the mhz hype like intel, they do the PR rating hype what's that cpu doing unoverclocked anyway? you want more mhz, well add some then

your CPU is running at 2.08ghz, that is the NORMAL speed for a new Barton 2800+ AMD CPU. If you want to overclock it you'll have to increase the "front side speed bus" in your BIOS, but unless you have good cooling be prepared to know how to do a CMOS reset

| that's true, the 2600+ tbred runs at 2083MHz. Then again, the multi or fsb could be off... Or the mobo or the CPU could be faulty, oh I'm having such an interesting day ... |
