Kinda dumb question

How do you oc the Epox 8K7A? Im used to the old jumper style and then the last two mobos ive been using Softmenu (Abits). This board seems to be a combo of both? There is a cpu frequency deal in the bios and then some switches on the actual board. Do you have to adjust the voltage incrimentaly as increase cpu speed? Thanks guys I know its a pretty lame question but im pretty much lame myself http://www.veforums.com/smile.gif

I just got my 8K7A+ yesterday and found that I had to increase the vcore With the JP2 jumper to get my board to run at default 10x133. I set my multiplier jumper on the mobo and the Vcore voltage to +0.2. then in the bios I increased the FSB to 140. I,m running now at 11x140.

Thanks AMD. I did the JP2 thing as soon as I got the board. Wasnt sure how the mobo switches and the bios frequency thing worked. Thanks for the advice
