The clock multiplier always used to be set by the motherboard
[by applying, or not, a voltage to a number of processor pins]
but naughty people used to play with the settings to overclock
lower speed processors and Intel now set the multiplier in the
carrier directly.
The motherboard clock multiplier settings are now irrelevant
to Intel CPUs.
