So, pins BF0, BF1 and BF2(if connected) on my MMX CPU are concerned with clock frequency multiplication, and I hazard a guess that there is nothing I can do to disable the multiplier limit - x3.5 in this case, as this is probably set within the package during manufacture. A x4 multiplier would be useful in my overclocking activities, but soldering a Mobile Pentium to my motherboard is not an option I would consider, I just don't see it working. SPGA - Sintered? Does it refer to a ceramic case?. I'll do some more reading. Cheers, -- Roger
