That is an interesting article Petr, thanks. Now all I need a link to the linux version of the CPUMSR program :-)) If I understand this correct, then when the CPU is an XP-M, it should be able to change multiplier and vcore, if the right registers are manipulated.

Hi

The Biostar M7NCG-400 have a min Vcore at 1.3V. I am running the mobile CPU at 1500GHz at 1.125V

Then the pinmod is more interesting.

But it does not respond to change in multipyer. You cannot use the xp-m PowerNow features on this MB, as it must be supported by the ...
