One of the notable features absent from the above specifications list is the plethora of front side bus speeds available. Standard speeds of 66, 75, and 83MHz are of course there, but the really amazing feature is the option to adjust bus speeds from 84MHz to 200MHz in 1MHz increments!!

That's right, if you're having problems getting your CPU to run at say, 124MHz, crank it down 1MHz to 123MHz, or bump it down a little further to 122MHz, the sky's the limit with the BF6! We'll get into this more once its time to discuss overclocking, but hardcore overclockers will love the variety of options available when it's time to overclock their CPU.
