As a leading manufacturer in motherboard industry, AOpen always listens to what customers
want and develop products to fit different user's requirements. Reliability, compatibility, leading
technology and friendly features are our basic goals when designing motherboards. Other than
above mentioned design criteria, there are power users who are always seeking to push the
limitation of the system performance by overclocking which we call them "Overclocker".
This section is dedicated to overclockers.
This high performance motherboard is designed for maximum 100MHz CPU bus clock. But it
comes with clock generator of 166MHz when we design it to accommodate future CPU bus clock.
Our lab test results shown that 166MHz is achievable when proper setting and qualified
components were presented, we feel quite comfortable overclocking to 166MHz. Not only that,
this motherboard has full-range (CPU core voltage) settings and an option to adjust CPU core
voltage. The CPU clock ratio can be up to 12.5X that supports almost all of Athlon/Duron CPUs
in the future and provides flexibility for overclockers. For your reference, the following
configurations are what we feel comfortable at 166MHz bus clock.
But not guaranty.
