MSI MS-6590 Mobo

Comment:
I have the MSI MS-6590 FISR motherboard with a Athlon XP 2600. The FSB runs at 167Mhz and the multiplier always stays at 12.5. My cpu is running at 2088Mhz I thought the XP 2600 should run at 2133Mhz. Is there a problem with my motherboard or is there a way I can overclock it to the right speed? You help is greatly appreciated.

I think that there are two variants of the 2600+, one with a higher clock speed and a slower bus and one with a higher bus and lower clock speed. You have the one with the higher bus.
