So I've been investing a little money into my older computer. I upgraded the motherboard to an MSI board with nForce2 chipset. the chip I am using is an AthlonXP 3000 w/ 333mhz bus.
I upgraded the memory to 2 PC-3200 512mb Patriot Signature Series chips (dual-channel). All the settings are still set to Auto, so does this mean that my memory is running at sub-optimal speeds? Does the bus have to be 400mhz to get the best out of my new memory?
I believe all the multipliers are unlocked, and I'm willing to O/C the chip a little if I have to. Any help would be appreciated, even if somebody could just point me in the right direction-- I've been on Google for hours with no luck.
