    Why ist the FSB so low? Can anyone fix that?

    At Bios 1.00.05 my FSB was at 270 Mhz (~ 3 533 MHz at maximum OC)
    Since Bios 1.00.06 the FSB is at 263 MHz (~ 3 433 MHz at maximum OC)

    :( :( :(

    Can anyone hexedit the bios file for higher FSB? It would be nice if there will be a freak who can give us a option in Bios for FSB tweaking. I think FSB 333 will be possible with Memory CL-tweaking.

    (sorry for my bad english :D )

    So with this addition, it again mentions quad cores. And in this case, quad cores not being recognized. With the new clevo moniker M570ETU representing the NP5797, why is the M570TU specifying quad core information? Are quads being supported in this BIOS release?

    Mike... I asked to my seller about upgrade my M570TU with a Quad Core and he told me this:

    " At this moment you need an newer Board reversion with the M570TU for Quadcore. The New Boards would released January. Clevo works on a Projekt to use Quadcores also on the old Boards, but it´s not sure if it works and releases. But I told you more if I knew more"


    i hope that it helps ;)

    I'm aware that you need a different board that supports the logical pinout of the quad cores. That does not, however, explain why clevo keeps mentioning quads in their m570tU bios.

    i dont know :confused:
    i suppose that this new bios is for new boards with support for quads. ???

    but i think that clevo works on a project to use quads on old boards (this said my seller to me).

    i understand nothing nothing! :(

    I can get a QX9300 QS for not much money from taiwan. But at this time a Quadcore will not work in M570TU?
