Good or Bad have no meaning at all, depends on what your point of view is.

No if it was an XP1700 then that might be the case as that uses a 11 multiplier (I know this because I now own one). The 1900 would use a higher multiplier then that, I suspect it might be the bios, see if you've got any settings you can tweak in the bios to up the multiplier or bus speed (or maybe jumbers on the mobo), otherwise if it's a fairly old board it could be that the bios can't support or incorrectly displays the speed of cpus that fast.


Your nice new PC might be faster then my 286, but my 286 makes a better door stop

It would read as 1050 though, which is possibly being rounded up to 1100. Or maybe he got the wrong CPU?

It should be 12*133=1596 (~1600MHz).

I have a similar issue. My pc is AMD 1900+ on K7S5A mobo with most recent bios. It has consistently reported the chip correctly during bootup until today. This morning I booted and my pc repored 1100 athlon. When I checked in bios the fsb was now at 100/100. However when I set the fsb back to 133/133 the sytem now reports my chip as AMD 1700. I have also now ran WCPUID and it reports the chip as 1700+!!!! How can this possibly be? I know for a fact the cpu was showing for a month as 1900+. the chip also physically says 1900 on it. I would think the only thing that could cause this is an actual change in the clock multiplier but being hardware locked how can that be?
