finally got my greedy paws on a (free) BX mainboard with decent clocking options - DFI P2XBL, and the other night I briefly put my PII-266 on it.

Unfortunately I cannot seem to find a 3.0 multiplier on the board The multiplier is set with a bank of four DIP switches, the listed combinations start at 3.5x. I wrote out the 2⁴ binary sequence and tried every combination not specified, but only found 2.0 and 2.5x. No voltage options either.

But what I did find out is that this chip will POST at 350 (100MHz bus), and 312MHz (124 bus) is also an option. SWWEEEEEEEEETTT...
