※ The wrong settings of the multiplier and external clock in certain circumstances
may cause CPU damage. Setting the working frequency higher than the PCI
chipset or processor specs, may cause abnormal memory module functioning,
system hangs, hard disk drive data lose, abnormal functioning of the VGA card,
or abnormal functioning with other add-on cards. Using non-specification
settings for your CPU is not the intention of this explanation. These should be
used for engineering testing, not for normal applications.
