cholito Posted December 14, 2006 Posted December 14, 2006 Hi, i got this nice mainboard last week and wanted to overclock my opteron 165 a little. Unfortunately i cant find an answer to a very important question. My question is: Where can i set/fix the PCI eXpress Frequency to 100Mhz in the Bios? After going through the Bios twice i couldnt find anything. Or does the mainboard fix automatically to 100 Mhz even when i overclock. Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest LookBackX2 Posted December 14, 2006 Posted December 14, 2006 I 'm not trying to be an butt, but I believe you are mistaken. You can lock the pci express frequency in the Genie bios settings, I believe it is the second option; PCI Bus settings or something like that. It is under the DRAM settings menu option. This is off the top of my head, since I am at work and my computer is at home, but you do not specify a frequency, you just enable the pci express lock. You should also imho enable pci express reset as well. Hope this helped, good luck. Cholito, you need to consider making a sig if you want to keep your DFI-Street priviledges, the Mods are a tough bunch if you can't follow the rules!

CPDMF Posted December 14, 2006 Posted December 14, 2006 Nah, there's no option to lock the PCI-E or PCI bus in the bios. It is locked solid though, to at least 370 HTT so far.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cholito Posted December 14, 2006 Posted December 14, 2006 Ok, thanks for the help. Looks like there is really no option for PCIe Frequency. I just wanted to make sure. The only thing i could find was "PCIe Common Clock" (enable/disable (default)) under Pcie configuration. Any idea what it is for?

Mussels Posted December 15, 2006 Posted December 15, 2006 I'm quite sure i found this option in the bios and set it to 105Mhz..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poisonsnak Posted December 15, 2006 Posted December 15, 2006 I'm with CPDMF and Mussels, just rebooted and ran through the CMOS and there is no option to control or lock the PCI-E clock in either Genie BIOS or PCIE Configuration Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HSCHOUEST Posted December 16, 2006 Posted December 16, 2006 It All Depends On What Bios You Have The Older Bios Had An Option The 7-28-2006 Bios Doesnt Have The Option Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cholito Posted December 16, 2006 Posted December 16, 2006 I got the 2006/04/25 Bios Version and after checking there is no option. I just hope it locks the PCIe frequency right. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
