nForce PCI BUS locked?

[CyberGenX 0]

Does anyone know if the nForce2 chipset has the PCI bus locked? I have the MSI nForce2 Delta-L and have the bus up around 205 for a 166 based chip. Seems to work ok, just want to know if I am frying my PCI devices.

Probably not, but you can check the pci bus speed in programs like sisoft sandra

That was the nForce3, I read that one. And yes it was on the front page of this site, lol...

I am nearly certain that it is locked. You might check the nforcershq forum though.

Hi, yes they are definantly locked by default, although you can make some changes, I'm currently running 11 x 200 and with a PCI of 33 and a AGP of 66....
