Hardware expert please :-)

I have new Asus motherboard and other parts, for a new system box, winging
their way to me, as I bought a Phenom II x4 965 cpu a couple of weeks ago,
(965 is on the cpu support list for mobo).

After casting an eye through mobo manual, it seems that the maximum cpu
multiplier setting is 15x ,
...how does this work with the 965's 3.4ghz spec. ?

will "Auto" settings in bios do the job ?

TIA

regards, Richard

Normally "auto" is fine.

I never saw the point in trying to squeeze a tiny bit more bit of
performance out of a machine and experiment with over-clocking
