Yes 900pts more

exelent !!!

When Nforce 3 250 are out?

[andyddr]

I`ve e-mailed DFI to do a review on the 250 and they said early April . Epox might be end of this month though. The rest will follow soon after.

[neo.life]

anybody find core cg core?

[A64'uSER]

Wee, i just got my new Power supply, Antec Trueblue 480w, and now i could make a stable clock of my cpu. 10x230 - 1.65vcore. Is'nt that okay? I have'nt tried higher, but i'm sure that it can go 2400MHZ :P

[SupaMan]

Plugged it all in today. Much to my dismay gigabyte F'ed up the mounting bracket by using clips instead of screws... yay.

K8N Pro, havent done any testing or anything, just "hay, it works"

http://www.ocfaq.com/files/0310_supa642200.gif

Any one have a link to a thread with K8N pro tweaking info? looking for info on exactly what all of the voltages are, as well as how the hell to gain access to more advanced functions such as memory timings

edit: Note the CG.. anyone else got one of these? seeing pretty much all C0s in the thread

[misteroadster]

waouhhhhhhh a CG core !!!!! :banana:
you are very lucky !!!!!
what is the stepp ?????????
:toast:
it s the first i seen , i hope i could have one soon in france to chill it. :toast:

[SupaMan]

stepping is CAAPC date 0401

Got it shipped to me right from AMD... <3 review samples

[SupaMan]

Anyway... more random settings.. hehe

http://www.ocfaq.com/files/0310_supa642300.jpg

went to DDR votlage +.3 and HT +.1 and vDDQ +.1 core 1.7... probably could get away with less than that.

going to go play something :D

ok , pleased to meet you. ;)
have a good overclock :)
i hope the CG core had more potential.
show us how it perform.
I have to sleep i'm dead.
But i'm excited to get up tomorrow

[misteroadster]

don't touch the vcore ;) just fsb and hit the max stable at default voltage.
to hit max fsb put the LDT to 2,5X max about 290
LDT 2X max 330

[kakaroto]

YOUR VCORE IS WAY TO HIGH.

Try to reach max stable with Standard Vcore dude.
Set LDT@2.5x and play :)

damnz, I have a CAATC 0404, newer week than yours but one core revision older :p:

[neo.life]

+1 too kakaroto

where do you buy your cg core?

[SupaMan]

Originally posted by neo.life

I didn't, I run a tech site and review hardware. AMD sent it to me. :D

vcore is back down to stock now, trying out 210x10. Passed prime for 4 hours then crapped out... only other thing I changed was memory voltage +.1, might need more. Before I go further I want to work with the memory timing more. The comp refuses to load windows with any of the manual settings i've tried so far ( 6-2-2-2 7-3-3-2 11-2-2-2 ). When I was trying to get 7-3-3-2 working I thought it might be the tREF so I had it on 2x3120, 1x3120 1x1554 4x2??? 128... Once I get that locked down I'll toy with speeds more. Time to go look up the vmem mod and such.... my 1GB BH5 is hungry :)

edit: kakaroto, something else you might want to know is that my CPU is brown, not a green like yours.

edit2: have a look http://www.ocfaq.com/files/0304_IMG_0770.jpg

[misteroadster]

put the LDT to 2,5X
Desynch the ram AUTO to 150 or 166 , at default timings.
stock vcore.
and pump up the FSB with clockgen , i think 240 fsb is possible with a cg core at stock voltage , and try with LDT 2X.
the gigabyte mobo don't boot with +230 FSB.
Try with clockgen for NF3 !!!!

default ram timings arent acceptable... its BH5, i dont want to run 8-4-4-3

[misteroadster]

Ok i understand , but we want to know if the CG core is better than C0 at stock voltage.
Timings are not important for this test.
you can't hit 2400 mhz at 1,5v ? :(

If a 3000+ can hit 2.4GHz with 1.5v, its a lucky chip dude.
My 3000+ hits 2.3Ghz with 1.5v stable.

[SupaMan]

It doesnt look like its going to hit 2400 with just 1.5. Actually I havent managed to get it to hit 2400 with any amount yet ;) For some reason it just craps out at that speed, even if the memory is throttled back and vcore upped.

But anyway,
LDT @ 2.5
v@1.5
memory 6:5 8-4-4-2.5
max 230x10
havent stability tested it yet

[neo.life]

cg core is not fabulous :/

You haven't got ch5 ddr for test with this?

We're talking the hyped up CG core here, it's supposed to be far better than the core's that are on the shelfs right now.

The mem controller is supposed to be more tolerant with the sort of RAM used.

Send it over to me, i'll test it for you. :D

[misteroadster]

Supaman , do you use clockgen , if you don't , you can't hit high FSB.
my K8NPRO don't boot when FSB>230 in bios , by clockgen i can hit<330 FSB.

[SupaMan]

May be PCI bus getting to high thats messing with my OC... I use an m-audio revolution. I doubt its as high PCI speed friendly as the SB or onboard cards people are using.

Yes it suppost to be better, its needs lass Vcore at low speed.
But we have to wait and see what supeman do with his CG.

I only say that 2.4GHz with stock is a very very good OC. even for a CG.

[kakaroto]

Here another try with my 3000+ on crappie asetek.

fine for your cooling ,you ve got a good chip kakaroto !

[eviLRuLeZ]

what's new supaman?
what frequency did you hit finally?

[neo.life]

yes pleazzz

...

[misteroadster]

.....and supaman never go back :(

[SupaMan]

I have been playing with it, at 1.5V the max stable is 2.2GHz. Even there it isnt stable in prime, but I havent been able to crash it there yet. I am currently testing out 2.3GHz at 1.65V...

One thing I can say for certain is that without more vcore (mobo max 1.7V) the chip absolutely will not stabilize at 2.4GHz. even if the RAM is at 185MHz and the LDT at 1x.... 2.4 is a no go for sure, unless I am missing some key setting... and I believe i've toyed with them all

[EmineM]

show us some sandra bandwidth tests see if they improved the mem controller anyhow

[SupaMan]

eh....

2553/2551
in sandra

timings below, LDT 3x, 2.3Ghz HT 230

These timings suck big time!! :eek:
Are these the best timings it takes??
Set LDT to 2,5 and try other RAM, it might not like the RAM.

If you could just show a Sandra mem bandwidth test @ 10x200 and decent timings (2-2-2-6-11-16) we could make a nice compare.

Don't know what's holding you back but it doesn't look promising at all. :(

[SupaMan]

what would you suggest setting tREF at...

[Zeus]

I don't know these Gigabyte mobo's, i suggest you have a look at macci's site:

http://www.akiba-pc.com/article.php?39.0

;)

[SupaMan]

under absolutely no circumstances will windows boot with CL=2.0 so CL has to be 2.5 at least. Considering that, then I shouldnt go lower than 7 for tRAS or whatever that bigger one is called. Here is

7-2-2-2.5
LDT 3x @ 200
CPU 200x10
tREF is at its lowest value, 1x1552

[misteroadster]

Your ram chips are bh-5 or ch-5 or another ?
Do you increase Vddr to 2,9v?
Could you tell me the cpu temp °c full-idle at 1,7v ?
Try with only one Memory.
Do you try to desynchronise your ram to 166 or 150 or 133...
do you use clockgen ???
please reply to me.

please reply to me.

I had all of the in-BIOS voltage maxed,
VDDR +.3 (probably 2.8.... shouldnt 2.5 be stock?)
HT voltage +.3
VDDQ +.3
as well as core 1.7

About temps, downloading a large file right now so it will be about a half hour before I can get back to you about them. Idle at 2Ghz is 26ºC though if that interests you

I have it cooled with a swiftech MCW5000, eheim 1250, heatercore, pair of 80cfm fans.

I did use clockgen. when I was trying for 2.4GHz basically what I did was:

-max the voltages
-set LDT to 2.5 (later tried 2 and 1)
- RAM ratio to 150 (4:3) (wanted to be absolutely sure it wasnt the RAM maxing out)
- booted, started up clockgen.
If I lower the CPU multiplier, then I can get the HTT speed up to 253 at 2.5LDT before I have problems, but no matter what combination I use... at 2.4GHz the computer resets almost immediately. I think it needs more vcore.

The RAM is 2x512Mb Corsair XMS3500 v1.1 which is BH5.

Tonight I am going to try it with just one stick in.

[misteroadster]

there is some problems with BH-5 appearly , but normally the revison CG sould disable this problem.
yes the vcore should be welcome by the cpu.
but less than 2.4 ghz@1,7v in Watercooling iz not fabolous :/
i hope you're not lucky with this chip.
there's no use to increase vddq and vhtt. ;)

[s e t h]

hey SupaMan - do you have an smd grabber and a 50killo ohm multi turn variable resistor. the vcore mod is so easy you might just fall off your chair.
i have a pictureless guide up http://www.planetmars.co.za/forums/index.php?showtopic=11357

also try using only one stick of memory. the giga board often takes offence to two sticks. especially 512mb ones

[K32A]

I have a problem... When i try to set the multiplier to x9 it wont boot up, so i have to clear CMOS - Why can't i change my multiplier?

Please help me...

[EmineM]

K32A You can only change the multiplier if you have only ONE Stick of ram in your dimm slots

[K32A]

I do only have ONE stick! Maybe i should try another slot. Right now it's in slot 3. I will try to set it in slot 1. But thanks for the information anyway ;)

[SupaMan]

with clockgen mine changes with two sticks... just doesnt retain the setting after reboot, goes back to 10.

edit: I have SMD grabbers, gotta pick up that variable resistor though.

If I set my MP lower with clockgen, my PC locks.
But is remember the setting until I turn my PC off.

[andyddr]

SupaMan GlockGen is designed to restore your bios defaults at the next boot. So if your bios is 200FSB and you have 3200+(10x) and you set GlockGen to 250 x 9.5 then it WILL reboot at 200 x10 (default).

My system will also change with two sticks in either of the three slots BUT the Gigabyte boards love the mem in the 3rd slot for some reason. Give it a try, I did and got over 10FSB higher just by doing that!

3rd slot eh? ok I'll give it a go. I tried with just one stick (in slot 1) and it didnt really help with anything at all.

I figured clockgen wasnt supposed to keep the setting... would really screw people over if they picked a bad one if it did

[Matshui]

I was wondering how you guys can get such a high FSB, when the PCI/AGP lock don't seem to work proberly....?
Are you just lucky that it works on that time, when you are clocking, or does it have something to do with a newer BIOS..? :confused:

Mostly luck, and using PCI devices that happen to tolerate such speeds.

[Matshui]

I have recently discovered that it sometimes work adjusting your AGP speed throug ClockGen, atleast when I tried another time earlier, the AGP speed stayed and even went down when I clocked my CPU back to the stocj settings again...

Also before my AGP speed had no trouble staying at 66/33Mhz, without adjusting it, and then suddently it won't lock anymore... :confused:

But if that thing with ClockGen works, then it is no problem anymore... :banana:

[Perc]

when you guys say the pci/agp lock doesnt work? what speeds does it stop working at? so far mine has stayed working but ive only got it as high as 240 so i probly havent got to the point where it stops working yet?

your software isnt accurately reporting the speeds, to really see them you need a hardware PCI device tha measures them. Look at the anandtech article about this for some good information.

crappy... 2.3GHz @ 1.7V

I'd love to think it's the motherboard, or the memory, but I've managed to rule out both as the issue. The core just wants more juice. Isnt overheating either.

[eviLRuLeZ]

erm ok .. :/
maybe that cpu isnt that good.. i mean the cpu that you received from amd.. but others core cg may be good probably
we'll see that in a little while i hope ;)

[Perc]

ok guys i have had my 64 3200 system now for a week and i think i got the hang of it? right now i can run the system at 230x10 @ 2300mhz v-core 1.55v memory 2.9v everything else auto. now i am ocing thri the bios cause it seems more stable this way? also i had a question about the LDT settings? i had it set to 2x and it ran prime stable so i tired 2.5x and for some reason it shows up in sandra like its still set at 2x plus the memory scores stayed the same? i run the an50r with the an50s00y bios can anyone shed some light on this? also is 2300mhx at 1.55v decent for the 3200 chip?

thx guys perc,

[eviLRuLeZ]

yes
but did you try to hit a higher frequency? higher than 2300..?
1.520 is original voltage for the cpu isn't it?
try to determine where your cpu is stable without changing his voltage and tell us :D
and then tell us what max freq that you can hit with that beast plz :)

[s e t h]

yes that soud good Perc. 2300mhs for 1.55vcore is better than any chip i've run before. did you get the stepping before mounting it?

[Perc]

see thats the thing guys when i first got this thing it wouldnt do 2400mhz stable infact im not even sure if it will now? i did have a suicide shot of it at 2400mhz but it rebooted like seconds after i finshed getting the screen shot!! i have been running it at 220x10 for the last week then i decided to oc thru the bios since i wasnt getting all the great of ocs. thats when i tried 225x10 and finaly 230x10 and so far its prime stable and seems rock solid so im just going to leave it at 230x10 for a few weeks to let it burn in real nice :D my voltages are v-core 1.55v (*in the bios windows reports them as 1.52v) memory 2.9v agp 1.60v chipset 1.9v and my LDT auto set to 2.5 (i see no differance from 2x?) here is the stepping of the chip....ADA3200AEP5AP CAAAC 0345RPMW 9457135K 30810 i have only see this stepping once or twice before in this thread. infact when i first got it i thought i had a dud cause 2250-2300 was all i could get and that was using 1.7v on the v-core then i got mad and just set the v-core back to 1.55v and ran it at 220x10! thats how i found out i could run 2300mhz at 1.55v. i had no idea this was good kinda why i asked.... ok guys once again thx for your help you guys rock :D oh one more thing? LDT 2 or 2.5? im running 2.5x now and it doesnt seem any faster then 2x? thx...

peace perc,

[s e t h]

2.5 is good except around 300fsb maybe go 2x

Hey im running the Gigabyte k8n (non PRO and non XP).

Im still running with the "stock" BIOS, because i haven't read about them too much. Is there a BIOS availeble wich improves performance?

[Phyrox]

Pejsen you can use lower multis and chaneg them in the bios instead of crappy clockgen and doing it time you boot by flashing the gigabyte ga-k8nnxp-940 bios :) it works without a hitch!

[Phyrox]

hey can someone link me to the k8npro vmod

Hey Phyrox

thx for the help, i will defenently load new BIOS tomorrow :)

As for the Vcore mod: http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=20190

Very easy mod, indeed. I used a grabber on the IC pin10 and used the one of the motherboard "mountingholes" as GND (ground).

Notice that u should set Vcore at AUTO in BIOS or else u will risk loosing your CPU. Set the VR @ 50K ohms and turn slowly too increase the Vcore, please note that you should be carefull, at a certain point voltage grows ekstremly fast, so first time i tried i ended at 2.05Vcore HEHE. :e

However the K8N has an internal safety-thing that automaticly shuts down the board when Vcore is over 2.1V - been there, done that :p:

Ps. sorry for bad english

[Popcicle]

cpulloverclock...

You are one wild and crazy guy with those voltages. Even
with a Vapo.

You have the Fire Department standing by with a Hook &
Ladder crew?

I read somewhere a while back.... that if a guy will leave the
FSB set at 201 in BIOS the AGP/PCI will remain locked while
using Clock/Gen. At least above 200 which is default.
I found out this works for me as the first time I tried Clock/Gen
I had to go back into BIOS and make the change to get a lock.
This is with a Shuttle AN50R but I don't see why it wouldn't
be the same for any nForce3 150 board.

My 3200+ won't go anywhere near 2400mhz, could you tell me what psu your using and what volts the rails are reading?

[cpulloverclock]

According to the manufacturers of MB, the Socket 939 (MB and Proc) would be available at the end of may or at the beginning of june :mad: = ESTIMATE

[andyddr]

lil old me I`m running a VERY crappy 350Watt PSU and MB5 says my rails are around 3.1v.

[lil old me]

Guess i got a bad chip and you got a good one then! Our rigs are very similar but i cannot get past 2300mhz at 1.7v :(

[andyddr]

Well post your steppings so we can have a look. May be that your cooling, RAM or even PSU is holding you back and not the chip...always the optemist

[K32A]

I cant get any higher than 10x230 at 1.65 vcore, 1:1 2-2-2-5 2.7v - Is that good or bad?

Unfortunatly i didnt write it down and cant look until sat.

However my cooling stock hs with 120mm ys tech 45C full load, ram kingston pc3000, psu is hiper 350watt, it seems to fluctuate and i thought that might be what it was but if yours is ok with a bad psu it might not be the problem.

i think it's bad because you'd better decrease mutiplier ; and increase FSB , if your sticks don't support 255mhz, increase vddr to 3,3v (easy with AN50R) and pump up the FSB !!
9X255 FSB 1:1 would be very easy and much better.
8X287 FSB 1:1 a little higher , i think ; but if you'll do it ; i'll applause you ;)

[K32A]

I can't change my damn multiplier :( Every time i change it from BIOS it's set back to x10 when i come into Windows :( And with clockgen my computer freeze :(

What is the problem ?

[misteroadster]

set your LDT to 2,5X

[andyddr]

Make sure you click on `get values` before you change your multiplier settings. Once you change it click `apply FID` and then `set values` and your system should`nt freeze anymore.

[K32A]

Hey!

I've just tried that in clockgen, it seems to work fine if i set the multi to x9 and apply it, but when i want to run 2000MHz it freeze's x(

It is really p*ss*ng me off :(

[misteroadster]

try to clearcmos and retry. :/
or try to set to 230X10 and set multiplier to 9.
LDT to 2,5X or 500MHZ

[andyddr]

Take it up SLOWLY....don`t jump from say 200FSB to 230FSB in one jump, rather do it in 15MhZ intervals. Also (VERY IMPORTANT) set your FSB to 210 in the bios and then play in ClockGen. For some reason it like the system a bit overclocked before you push it further.

[andyddr]

Also your Mem voltage may be too low. Try more juice...say 2.9v and see if it helps.

you mean extreem good.
Most XPMW can do 2500MHz stable in air/water and 2600MHz with chilled water.

I had a:
CAAMC 0449RPMW = 2250MHz max @1.8v:mad:
CAAOC 0350XPMW = 2550MHz max stable @1.79v
CAATC 0404XPMW = 2550MHz @1.70v still OCing

Lucky XPMW can do 2700MHz.:)

All with WATER and AIR.

I can get a 3000+ CBAPC 0404UPMW (CG stepping) :D

[neo.life]

For me this
CAATC 0404XPMW = 2550MHz @1.70v still OCing

lovely !!!!

2) The Game 1 low details always has some fluctuations in the frame rate, if you run this test for, say, 10 times, you will see at least, there is a score have about 20fps in average more for the same setting :D

[K32A]

Hi guys!

I just got my gigabyte K8N non-pro todya because my Shuttle An50R was sick :( Well, is this K8N a very bad overclocker or what? I cant get it stable at 2200MHz... I've tried all kind of vcore selection in bios...

Whats wrong`?

I dont know if its the mobo there's seeing the wrong kin of volts from my PSU, because MBM5 says that:


Core 0: 1.49v
Core 1: 2.52v
+3.33 : 3.22v
+5.00 : 2.85v
+12.00: 11.19v



They are very lower than they were on my shuttle :s

Could a bios update be the solution?

[EmineM]

well your 5 v is a joke...
just 2.85v where it is supposed to be around 4.82v
its must be your PSU

[K32A]

No, it is'nt my PSU... On my shuttle an50r it was around the 4.85v

[Matshui]

It is your settings in MBM5, when I change something in my settings my voltages act the same way...

[K32A]

Okay... But is the K8N mobo a bad overclocker? Because i can't get it stable at 2200mhz... even at 1.7vcore

[Matshui]

Are you clocking throug BIOS or using ClockGen..?
I have heard that the K8N has problems when trying to boot with more that 230Mhz FSB, could be that problem you are running in to..

[K32A]

I have set vcore to 1.700v, LDT to x2.5 and chipset and vdimm to +0.3v in bios and booting up at 210x10...

Increasing fsb with clockgen to 220, and even there it is not stable at all!

Damn... I dont know what to do`?

[s e t h]

it's not a bad board. it is a well known good overclocker. it does have some quirks but then again they just about all do these days with us doing all the beta testing.

[K32A]

Have i done anything wrong since it wont get stable?

[lil old me]

My 5v line is like that too guess it must be the board.

I posted a couple of weeks back about my oc and someone wanted to know the codes on my chip finally got around to fitting my watercooling setup so here they are.

ada3200aep5ap
caamc 0347vpmw
9359625k30176

I've gained a small oc from using water gone from 2260mhz to 2328 mhz stable. 1.7v, my psu seems very bad so i think thats holding me back. Im 44C full load 29 idle.

now i can do 8,5x280 synchro 1:1 with a litle gain of performance.

i can beat 4x320 in synchro 1:1

why i can't do more than 280 with a cpu frequency near 2400mhz ?

the X8 multiplicator seems to work bad , but with 7,5 multiplicator it's the same : can't reach 280 .

actually the best combo for me is 8,5x280 , it give me the best performance but i want a litlle more .

my rig does better at 3dmark using 8.5x327 166 ratio than 9x309 166 ratio.

Does this 266 MHz effect only come into play for 1:1 ratio

no it's a problem when you use half multiplier .

look at this :

The memory divider is another thing which requires study with this motherboard. In the BIOS there are options for 200, 166, 150, 133, and 100MHz memory buses when HTT is 200MHz. These function normally, but a second divider gets introduced when the CPU is using a half-multiplier, like 7.5x. Since the memory controller is onboard the CPU, memory speed is based directly off of the CPU speed. When using a half multiplier, the RAM will behave as if the multiplier is actually the one half a step higher. The math for determining the memory speed becomes somewhat complicated. In all honesty the best course of action is to use ClockGen or CPU-Z to find the memory frequency, they have the detection method built in. Looking at the memory tab in CPU-Z which shows the divider being used is especially helpful in understanding.

Complicated is an overstatement. All you need to do is divide the FSB(HTT) with the multi + .5 and divide by the actuall multi.

IE.
280*9.5 - 280/10*9.5 = 266Mhz

or

300*7.5 - 300/8*7,5 = 281Mhz

CPU-Z does not show the ram-speed correct when using half multis, nor does Clockgen.

Atleast not here with the newest versions.. :)

thanks, now its clear
so 1:1 uses integral memory dividers

for me it doesnt matter anyway since I have to use the 166 ratio (mem is limited to 267 MHz @ 3.6V)

Running in 2.5-2-2-5, I cant run CL2 if i use 1:1.. just if i use 200mhz option in BIOS btw.

This setup is screaming for a vmod. I have to run the memory at 166 to get 2.7ghz I cant even do 220fsb @ 1:1 with 2.95v :(

speed up and get some mods dude :) you realy need it asap

[Formann]

Got another one a few days ago.. was hoping for a CG chip, but no.

A64 3200+
0351 CAAOC
"9"..160
Cooled by a Vapo PE.. poor thing.


Stable? It was.. now its acting up on me. It refuses to run nature in 01 at more than 2650. I also suspect my AN50R to be the sinner here, cause I can no longer run 270HTT with 2.5LTD. Have to run 2x.

Tell me please, does anyone own a CG-revision of A64?

I was watching this thread and it seems that everyone have C0.

[Matshui]

The stock vDimm voltages on the Shuttle is; 2,6v, 2,7v, 2,8v and 2,9v...
The vCore is from someplace under 1v to 1,7v and the vdd I can't remember - but it is something like max 1,8v or so...

Holy crap.. at only 1.72v ?!?!

Whats your water and cpu temp?

Nice chip you´ve got there, and of course nice OC :)

[paul007]

thanks is chilled ethanol and it is "VERY" cool.. down below -65c

cpu temp during all benching never dropped below -28c in bios ;) botto0m of block maintained a load temp of -56c wish I had access to a 20k VR for the vmod today as I think i could have pulled off some 3100mhz benches :)

more to follow and opf course 3d and a top spot on the 3dmark orb :)

[2PiZzA]

PLEASE answer my question. ANYBODY.

[paul007]

I think all fx53's are CG's if so ask OPP or XMAN they both ahve these chips.

[2PiZzA]

I'm not talking aboun FX. I'm asking about Athlon64 (No FX).

[paul007]

ahh well then out of the 100 forums I vist I have not seen one :(

[2PiZzA]

paul007 hmm..... I looked at this: http://www.amd.com/us-en/assets/content_type/white_papers_and_tech_docs/25759.pdf

and found out that there're A64 CG.

[paul007]

oh yeah there has been but I dont know when there are going to start shipping :(

[EmineM]

so paul where are your ownage 3d benches ;)

[paul007]

so paul where are your ownage 3d benches

stock 9800xt was dishish out in the 24.5-25k+ region the rest you all have to wait for till I get the card cooling on and have the time to vmod the 9800xt and so on..

Gaurt. 30k ;)

[Matshui]

I might aswell publish my currently OC result - not maxed out yet..!!

CPU is a 3000+ CAATC 0350XPMW

http://img21.photobucket.com/albums/v64/Jakob.Soendergaard/OverClocking/250x10.jpg
This is 112% stable and for everyday use - at only 47°c full load with watercooling...

I need to do the vCore mod to get much higher as my board maxes at 1,7v.....
Anyway there will be more from me later on, as I will convince myself about trying with 1,7v in vCore.... :rolleyes:

[K32A]

I'm doing a SuperPI in 39sec. on 2400MHz with 200MHz on RAM, is that okey or is it too slow?

(1M ;))

[andyddr]

39s for a 2400 A64 is not good. But them what are the timings on your mem? You should be seing around 36s with decent timings or higher clocks. I got 35s with 2.6g and mem at 3-4-4-7 at 270FSB

Edit: Sorry not 2.6G but rather 2.46G

[nutcase]

anybody going to try the New Athlon64 2800+??

[andyddr]

Yeah I`d like to. I saw a review a few days ago that showed it faster than the 3X00+`s in memory bandwidth.

Its a bit slow yes, what timings do you run ?

i got 35sec with 2500mhz and 227mhz on my mem. 2-2-2-5.

And my record is 34sec with2500mhz and 250mhz on my mem. 2.5-2-2-5 :)

[K32A]

I think it is because i'm only running 200MHz on my mem. and auto timings?

[2PiZzA]

Here's what I got.

Zalman 7000CU on CPU.

3.6V on memory

Albatron k8x800 proII mobo

Swiftech cooling soon

Look at the memory timings. It's not photoshop. Memory is OCZ premier series - the cheapest memory from OCZ.

[andyddr]

Good god. That`s pretty amazing stuff 2PiZzA! If you EVER want to sell your mem I`ll buy!

[2PiZzA]

This mem did only 217 2-2-2-5 with vmod on p4c800-e deluxe.

It's funkin weird. I just can't believe it.

[2PiZzA]

Oh, Lord. Look what I did with air cooling.

Hehe, printscreen stable ? :)

[lil old me]

Not going to last long with 1.9v!! :eek:

[2PiZzA]

1.9v is not a problem. Gonna vmod mobo for higher vcore.

It's realy printscreen stable. But if you look at http://www.vr-zone.com/ocdb/search.php , my a64 is the fastest 3200+ with air cooling. With the highest FSB and memclk.

but 2464MHz = 260x9.5 @ 1.8VDC is absolutely stable. With 2-2-2-5 mem timings in synchro.

[2PiZzA]

http://modorama.by.ru/overclocking/284mem.png

beat that

[Bennah]

I think these do :D

Some results that luihed got :eek:

http://www3.telus.net/luis99/292

:eek:

http://www3.telus.net/luis99/335c

[2PiZzA]

Bennah 335MHz? you mean that's 670MHz DDR? or it's photoshop?

[andyddr]

If that is`nt a Photoshop job then it`s the best BH5/6 I`ve ever seen. What system was this on and is that a buffered or unbuffered score?

[andyddr]

PiZza we think alike (u just type faster than me) :)

[2PiZzA]

andyddr My split keyboard helps me a lot doing that. :)

[K32A]

Now my Super_Pi is on 36 sec. - It's good with some faster RAM :)

http://keza.port5.com/Super_pi!.JPG

[2PiZzA]

K32A Not bad. Increase VCore. You'll get higher clocks.

I got 35 sec. It's maximum on air.

[K32A]

2PiZza I can't increase the vcore with out a mod. And i'm sending the motherboard in to get it fixed at the place where I bought it. There's some small problems when i update windows... What do tou think my RAM can run at 2.9v ? And with what cas.?

[cpulloverclock]

with my second 3400+ I get 2460MHz rock stable at 1.4v
it is worst than the first

[K32A]

Is that bad :| At 1.4vcore?

[2PiZzA]

K32A It's nice. pretty nice.

[cpulloverclock]

Originally posted by K32A

[2PiZzA]

cpulloverclock Someday I gonna change may 3200+ on 3400+ or 3700+ or whatever.

Update. Got 2580 at 1.92. Screenshot stable. :)

[Bennah]

Yea it is not a PS job. Its a real result that he got.

But using the A64 meant that it was'nt a real 335MHz, its a little lower I think.

macci posted somewhere on these forums, showing how you can work it out, but I cant find it now :(

I think his rig was

A64 3200+ (waterchilled)
AN50R
KHX3200

Pretty decent isnt it :)

[2PiZzA]

Anyway, you're all using nforce3 and i'm using k8t800. THat's a big difference. So there're no problems with fake clocks.

nono, your memory runs with 260 / 10 * 9.5 = 247MHz :toast:

[2PiZzA]

SKYNET This works on Nforce3. I've just tried 257*10 - no problems. But my CPU cannot work at higher frequncies.

So it's definately not 'bout me.

[Bennah]

So thats how ya work out the mem speed :)

FSB / 10 x Multi = Mem Speed :)

:toast:

[Orak]

I got my garden hose directly connected to my watercooling now :D results later :)

[cpulloverclock]

this is the lowest frequency for 37s with my K8n pro

I was testing FX53 Vs 3200+ for a french site.
The test will be online monday :
www.think-hardware.com
As you'll can see a 3200+ at 260X10 is most powerfull than FX53 overclocked to 13X200.
Very interresting , do you know ? don't forget the 3200's bandwith is very lower at 260FSb 1:1 than FX at 200.
For PC mark2004 i think my windows was crashed.

A little unfair IMO. Fx53 has higher mem timings and lower FSB. Obvious that it would come second. But the fact that it still beats 3200+ in some tests show`s it`s a better chip.
