      I haven't heard anything back yet. I sent him an email days ago (an asked all me sources too)... nodda

      It looks good... but (of course) will it set the cache latency so it'll boot that way?... I doubt it

        nah .. it cannot replace an Eclipse.

        It's just like softFSB, it helps you to find your peak quite easily, but once you've found it, you should make it permanent via hardware.

        I guess he'll have two tools, this one for the L2 cache and another one for CPU core, hence you could boot at 100/500MHz and windows could reset it to whatever the peak is.

            Not quite. The K7M doesn't let you control very much, other than the RAM and FS buses. That forces the processor, cache, and MB chips to go faster. The MB seems to handle this poorly. The other options effect only the CPU, and the L2 cache.
