I just bougth a DFI model P5BTX/l Rev B motherboard which has a "switching
voltage regulator that supports 2.8v to 3.5v core voltage.  I will be
installing a pentium 200mmx cpu.  The manual is clear on how to set the
"external Bus Clock-frequency Ratio" on what they call SW1.  It is SW2 which
sets the "core voltage" that confuses me.  The options are 2.8(board default),
2.9, 3.2, 3.3, 3.5.  From what I gather from Intel's site, part of the
processor uses 2.8 and other parts use 3.3.  What do I use, am I reading too
much into this ?
