For a computer I just assembled, benchmark test seems low.

My computer, 500mhz Celeron, 64m RAM, Pine mobo: 88.0
Benchmark 450 Pent II, unknown RAM, unknown mobo: 204.8

Bus speed is set to 100mhz. Processor core frequency is 5X. Changing
processor core frequency doesn't seem to alter benchmark much. 2.5X score
is 86.7.  CPU Frequency Ratio can be set to 66-133mhz. CPU Clock Select
can be set to default or Overclock (100mhz), but there is a caution that
Overclock setting is "for internal test only". I know of no control for
changing voltage setting. Board is designed for Celeron only.

Processor core frequency is set by BIOS, CPU Frequency Ratio by jumpers.
I read some articles on overclocking at No-Spin site, but do not know
what overclocking changes would be optimal for my system, or if there is
something else I need to do to bring benchmark up.
