I have just recived all my new hardware that I am using to upgraded my pc to 1.33Ghz. I am using a AMD Thunderbird 1.33Ghz/266Mhz(FSB), on a Asus A7V133A. Now being new to anything but the old 66Mhz Bus speeds and slow cpus, I am a little scared of how to setup up my motherboard. The setting for the CPU External Frequency let me setup to 133Mhz, and the CPU Core Bus Frequency Multipler alow me to setup to 12.5x, I want to say to go with 133Mhz/10.0x but I am afraid to fry my CPU. Any help on this would be great. Thanks!

Well, unless you have closed the L1 bridges on your CPU with a lead pencil, you can't change the CPU multiplier anyway. It will force the motherboard to use the CPU defaults which are 133/10x. Just insert CPU, attach thermal compound and heatsink, and boot up your system.
