    I don't know if this helps, but I built a computer last year with an Epox
    8K9A7i motherboard (VIA KT400A chipset). When I booted it for the first
    time, both the CPU and the memory clocked much lower than their rating. I
    noticed that there were two default settings alternatives in the BIOS, one
    called "Factory Default Settings" and one called "Optimized Default
    Settings". When I loaded the second alternative, both the CPU and the
    memory were clocked according to their rating. Factory default were
    obviously much lower clock speeds than rated.
