I am not looking to overclock this, but would like to run it at it`s most efficient at stock speed. I had a look in the bios and everything is set to auto, the fsb is 200mhz and multiplier is auto (i assume this is 13x). Would I be better to change this, and if so would it affect anything else. I have 2x1gb of corsair ddr2 800mhz ram cas5 ( which I cant find the latency settings for) and MSI K9Ag Neo2-Digital motherboard.

Regards

If you change the FSB over what it is now, you are by definition overclocking.

What I meant was, I am not trying to run the cpu faster than the stock speed, but just alter the factory defaults of my motherboard so that I run my cpu at its optimal settings, ie. would it run better at different settings.

There's not really much you can do in that respect. If you can find your latency settings, that might give a small boost.

Found the latency settings, set them to 5, 5, 5, 18, as recommended by corsair.
