Pci Lock?

[jancz3rt]

Hey. Upon receiving my mobo, I have a question for anyone who would know. I have a Gigabyte K8N Ultra-9 motherboard and I am afraid that it has no PCI lock. It has PCI-Express lock for sure but not the PCI as CLOCKGEN seems to suggest. Now my question is what the safe PCI speed would be? - This would mean that I cannot overclock!!!!

You have a half-decent mobo ... OC from the BIOS As for safe speeds ... really it would be stock-speed but if you want an OC perspective answer: trial and error ... push it till it breaks and dial back

Oh well

It activated the PCI lock when ocing . I am now at 290 Core...and it will not let me go further!
