459186 2006-05-30 22:11:00 The GeForce 6600 GT128MB PCIE card I am installing has a clock frequency of 500MHz. The Motherboard PCIE Clock default setting appears to be 100MHz, and I read it is not safe to set this much higher. Yet the motherboard instructions say that the setting "depends on the PCIE". What setting should I use? Randolf (75)
459187 2006-05-30 22:51:00 Leave it as is - the two clock settings are totally unrelated. The frequency for the video card is the frequency of the GPU on the card. You shouldn't need to change anything. Erayd (23)
459188 2006-05-30 22:53:00 Well first of all, the 500Mhz is the GFX card core, which you know, the 100Mhz is the PCI-E bus, and is not safe to change this, the GFX card does still run at 500Mhz, it is like a CPU, has a 200Mhz FSB, but runs at 2.2Ghz with an 11 times multipler.

There is no need to change anything :thumbs:
