core goes up 740 with 1.6v but i have 10 minutes time drive tests, then AGP slot gets water and i have to stop tests :D

i drive tests C02

anyone know who has the fastest air super-pi

[=[PULSAR]=]

Give me a couple weeks and I'll beat your Super PI with a aircooled 3000+:D Noise isnt a factor is it, I'll put the machine in a wind tunnel.

Hopefully I'll get a nice newcastle core and hit like 2.65ghz (9x295) and run full 1:1 DDR590

[s e t h]

=[PULSAR]= is your kv8pro a revision 1.1 and if so does vdimm work after 2.8v

[=[PULSAR]=]

Yep 1.1 with a working lock, but why lock the AGP/PCI when its helps 3D performance. Well in bios you can only set it to 2.8v but once you get a OS installed get the first version of uGuru and you can raise it to 3.2v, so the first time you boot just set the vdimm to 3.2v and reboot to bios and you will have a couple wierd characters where vdimm should be but under voltage monitoring it shows 3.2v. Also, VTT does not go any higher than 1.4v so you dont have to worry about burning the mem controller on your cpu.

[s e t h]

if vtt stays at 1.4 that will create instability using vdimm from 2.9-3.2. i know cause i had a kv8-max3 with the vtt issue and vdimm above 2.8 was useless. u sure vtt stays below 1.4? i was hoping that they'd fixed it with rev 1.1

oh well just have to mod then

[=[PULSAR]=]

Well the vtt stays at a constant 1.45v, but I havent found any instabilities about it. At one time I was running OCZ PC3200 @ DDR470 w/3.2v and it worked fine for me.

[s e t h]

hmmm. i'm def going to test one. thanks for the info

[Mariachi]

Verdict,

Damn good clocks man... :slobber:

Nice clocks king, But put on that baby phasechage and add some voltages... You can reache 3ghz pretty easily.

I Plan on it .... I'm just playin on air till chilly gets my cascade done. I'm hoping for alot more than 3ghz :P

[Mariachi]

I think 3.1Ghz + is completely possible with a good 3700+. That would rock, since my CPU maxes out at 3005Mhz, but i'm working on more. ;)

BTW, are you planning some 1:1 action? Maybe you should consiber EB3700 :slobber:

[k|ngp|n]

I am running it 1:1 in those benches. This one bh-5 stick will go 280-285 1:1 @ 5-2-2-2 but it needs over 3.5v.

The 3700eb looks good to tho.

does that uguru vdimm trick work with the new epox 250 boards?

[aoc007]

uguru is on ABit mobos only...

This is the Best I can do with this Motherboard :rolleyes:

Gigabyte K8NS pro with Vcore and Direct 3.3V Rail Vdimm Mod

Cooled with stock Prometia Mach 1

The OCZ Powerstream with the Direct 3.3V Mod allows me to adjust Vdimm Voltage to 3.85V :D

But, This F2 Bios needs a Lot of work.. Multipliers still don't work :mad:

Well, having a A64 at 2.6GHz is still great, and will be great for gaming for a long time too. As soon as i get money for a X800-XT i can start thinking about better cooling. But first things first :)

You should be getting maybe 2.65ghz @ 1.7V, I can get 2.6 @ 1.7 with a 3000+ newcastle but you have a higher stock clock.

So far got it to 3ghz (15x200) @ 1.824v using the multipliers alone having a few issues when you reboot but it seems perfectly stable otherwise. Will take some pics later on - super_pi is only 31 seconds though and I would have expected slightly quicker. Still experimenting though.

Yeah 4-4 are hurting your performance..
But now it's better ;)

[s e t h]

what board Chris88? try 8-3-3-2.5 on the ram and try one stick. looks like your board doesn't like 2x512 memory.

[Chris88]

I got Gigabyte K8NS MB. Gonna try with only one stick. And sure, i'll try anything. I just want my machine PRIME stable. Used 80$ on a Swiftech cooler so i'm gonna OC my CPU! :)

yay: i'm stable at 202fsb. Now i'm gonna OC this :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana:.. :D

[Chris88]

My machine just turned itself off for no reason, and the screen flashed. Then i took out one stick of ram and it booted. Now i'm gonna try that OC and check if it's stable. Weird stuff!

Basically I want to do 1:1. instead of the current 5:4 Memory Ratio. Should I get OCZ's 3500 or 3700 EB RAMs? another would be Adata DDR500????

[LardArse]

htkm, Go for BH5s. You've done vtt mod right? Pull the 3.3v from pin on the bottom of the board where the ATX 3.3v goes to the Leg of Vdimm mosfet and you should be all set. 3.38v vdimm + 1.67v VTT works good together. A Vcore mod should get you more on the clocks.

[htkm1]

Cheers man. :toast: a...which one is the Vdimm mosfet? a bit more detail with pics would be really good. and also the VCore mod. :D

AX = CG (newcastle)

the first two letter of the core (ex. CAAOC)

CA = CO or CG core
CB = CG (newcastle core)

it's faster then 313*8 but i don't know why? :confused:
http://www.forumdeluxx.de/gallery/data/500/101731_5V.JPG

[s e t h]

well at 313fsb you memory is iether doing 313x166/200=259mhz or 313x133/200=208. if you memory was divided to 133mhz that would explain why it is slower. cpu is the same speed but memory is down from 250 to 208. therefor entire system is slower. if you are using the 166 memory divider then i can't explain the drop in performance unless you dropped the ldt setting or loosened the memory timings

[tbonekot]

Ldt was the same (3) and the timings also the same!The memory has also the same speed (258) I don't know why its slower then sychron!

I read it very well actually but was thinking that you obviously knew that async option which has been mentioned about a 1000 times in this forum.. but obvious you didnt
try pressing ctrl + f1 in the bios ;)
So next time try thinking or asking twice before you´re giving people the rolleyes ;)

[p4z1f1st]

MAN, where that option came out ?! :D :D :D ;)

sorry :D :wierd:

ok, just w8 for results, will be back in a few moments :D

[p4z1f1st]

lol, there isn't any divider-options....

only one option, to set the max MEM-Clock @ 200MHz....but then, the HTT-clock is @ 200MHz fix too....

so, no way

[bias_hjorth]

download another bios ;) F9 version is what you want.. and the divider option is there ;) I´ve played with this board several times and owned the top end model k8nnxp so I know its there...

[p4z1f1st]

are u really sure ?

because, i've already the F10-Bios :confused:

[s e t h]

bias_hjorth - i notice that macci also uses f9. is that because of better memory overclocking or bandwidth or 1t timing results or what?

edit: i just checked giga's website and no f9 available. you seen a copy somewhere?

[bias_hjorth]

yes the f9 is slighty faster cause of tighten timings:

http://s6.invisionfree.com/underclock/index.php?showtopic=5 <--- bios

[p4z1f1st]

ok, i flashed the F9-BIOS....but there still aren't divider :(

just @ "Max Memclock" are 2 new options called

"xxx1" and "xxx2" but dunno what they are :stick:

so, u had had the board....tell me something about it :D

*signs

flash to the newest officiel one and then flash back.. Cant show you dude.. look for uself

[p4z1f1st]

dude, i really don't know from which divider-option u r talkin about....:confused:

now i flashed the F11 official....now i can set CPC to 1T or 2T...nice....but there isn't ANY divider....

but with the F11 i can set the multi....BUT, the VDIMM-max decreased from "default+0.3V" to "+0.2" :mad:

so, i think, i'll flash the F9 from tictac again :-/

[drcrawn]

This is basically my highest stable FSB, 224 bye bye OS...
2620mhz (218x12) is faster though, but I like running these settings 24/7 b/c I can keep vcore under 1.65 and it gives me 33sec pi runs.
anything above 219fsb with a 12x is not stable.

Hmm.. my new 3000+ is an "AR" not "AX". Must be a Clawhammer CG with half the L2 cache disabled then?

Will take a picture tomorrow, and post.

It does 2500Mhz @ 1.65vcore on AIR. Stock cooler with TT 70mm fan @ 4500RPM.

Yes, a 3000+ AR is a clawhammer core with 512KB disabled cache.

Anyone got any first hand experience with the 3700+ with air or water cooling? I was thinking about getting one, and noticed that they have CG stepping and 1MB cache. Just curious on overclocking results. TM30 just a couple questions, what exactly is your fan setup like on your rads? Fans? Push/pull? Voltage ran at? and of course your idle/load temps at those clocks you posted.

[Lifeless]

This seems to be my max overclock. And this gives an error in prime.
Its not my memory, so think it might be my cpu maxing out :(
http://users.pandora.be/lifeless/CPUZ.JPG
My SATA drive is connected to slot n°3.
My memory has 3.08V cpu 1.7.

Anyone got any advise on how i might get higher? or do you think this is the max of my CPU? I do have a batch number of 4xx so thats not that good i think.

according 2 my experiences & observations the following Steppings have a great possibility of a good clock-achievement

5 letter code: CAA..
4 letter code: XPMW

the week code is a little bit more tricky as it seems cause its not always like
the latest is the best especially week 21 seems to suck a lot.

would u confirm this!?

I have been met with nothing but trouble while overclocking on air but I just purchased the A64 adapters for my koolance and My temps have dropped 40 degrees. The funny thing is I have the ORIGINAL Mushkin PC3200 LevelII with the original BH5's in them and I have to keep the ram at 2.8v to boot the frickin machine stock. This is the same RAM that Pedro used to f*ck Macci's 6GHz benchmarks up. But I am running 2-2-2-5-1T but even when running from the SPD it would still crash. I had problems with a fresh install of XP b/c it kept complaining that it couldnt read random files on the windows cd so I bumped the voltage and low and behold it fixed the problem. Now the Abit K8V Pro I have automatically does 204 out of the box but even manually adjusting it yielded the same results. I will also say the bios reported the SPD at Cas 2.5 whether at 204 or 200 which I found very odd. I have not tried overclocking big time yet b/c I just put everything back together 2 days ago and I am happy to say atleast I am running very stable 204x11=2244@2-2-2-5-1T. I can get into Windows at 11x215 fully tweaked but crashes after I take the SS. Yes I am flashed and I do not have the 1.x revision.

[c0V3Ro]

it came only the chip, and it doesn't have the shim, the core is exposed, like this one:

You get a slightly higher cpu overclock on the Abit board? Is that with the same vcore?
Could you give your impression of the Abit compared to the DFI? I have the Abit and really like it. But I'd be curious to hear your thoughts since you have both boards.

both mobo are tested on the chip + ram (bh5)
my chip maxed out @ around 2.75ghz
dfi nf3 can also do 2.7 - 2.75ghz
reasons why i show the abit mobo @ slightly better result is because the ram is set to run @ 5:4 timing (ddr333) due to the low vdimm
n' dfi nf3 @ 2.65ghz because of it high vdimm allow it to run @ 1:1 (ddr400)
my bh5 is only capable of running 265mhz

imho both board are great
dfi need not to mod whereas abit need to do a vdimm mod if u want to achieve nice 1:1 result

Thanks for the lead Flytek. I have some interesting news on my OC. I poked around in the bios because of a post on this board and I started looking for the LDT which was set at 5X. I lowered it to 3X and ran 3dMark05 stable at 210x11 which is a first for me. Well the score is 4400 with my 6800GT flashed with Ultra bios and oc'd to 420/1.11. Well I get 5200 with LDT 5x at 11x204. wtf

I also called Mushkin to figure out why I have to run at 2.8v and they suggested lowering from 2-2-2-5-1T to 2-3-2-5-1T. wtf

nah. screw them. 2.8 is totally safe for bh-5/6. i have seen many sets that would not do what they were rated for until given 2.8volts. just be happy you have some.

Since i;ve used the MSi .. and i know the kinda bugs its likely to put out ... BUT once this bugger gets up and running ... its a sweet board

U cant go wrong with this board + a 3000 NC Core :) ... My Advice.

[=[PULSAR]=]

For a motherboard I would go with a Abit KV8 Pro, make sure its revision 1.1 cause they have working locks. It a great board for overclocking with stock air you with safe voltage probaubly bring it to 2.4ghz. I have a 3000+ OC to 2.68Ghz and went from 23fps to 30fps in the game I play.

thanks for the advice...I checked out the Abit site they have a Abit Kv8 pro and Abit Kv8 pro 3rd Eye...I don't see much differents between the two boards exept the 3rd eye is 10 bucks more (canadian)...since you said I should get the the 1.1 version could the 3rd eye = 1.1 ver...or I should just go with the Abit Kv8 pro and make the guy at the store open the box so I can find out the ver...thanks =].


and to the MSI K8N Neo Platinum suggestion...this board is 50 bucks(canadian) more then the Abit Kv8 pro...is it worth paying that much for nf3 250 chipset over the K8T800 pro chipset???

[=[PULSAR]=]

I have seen a couple reviews with the 3rd Eye and the only difference is you get a couple more points benchmarks, yes they have AGP/PCI locks which would constitute them at being revision 1.1. If your going for records go with the 3rd Eye but if your just benchmarking for curiousity then just go with the regualr KV8 Pro, both boards overclock the same from what I read.

[knw]

last thing I wanted to ask you about the K8V pro...is there any bios problems...and what version of bios should I have on it...also is there another version after rev 1.1?


cause I think I'm goin with the + 3000 nc cg core and the Abit K8V pro.

[pelikan]

I have no bios problems with my rev. 1.1 KV8 Pro, other than bad temp readings. It shipped with the 1.5 bios and I'm still using it. Rev. 1.1 is still the latest. I love this board.

[=[PULSAR]=]

I'm using BIOS v1.6, always have to try the latest. KNW if you can and you havent already AMD is suppose to be having price drops the Oct. 15th so you may save a little money if you wish.

I was just about to go pick up my new AMD64 setup...but now I might have to wait till the price drops the only down side is...I'm gonna be stuck with a p II 233mhz...but I'll end up saving $20us...could start saving up on a better coolin solution =]...

I also read that they might be coming out with a amd64 3000+ 939 512k (1.8ghz) at the same price as the 3000+ 754...I hope it's soon cuase dual channel would be nice =]...and of course in that case I'm goin with the AV8 =P.

i'm not sure. i would say 5:4 might win. i never bother unless it's 1:1. give your ram some extra vdimm :D

I was able to use clock gen to set the cpu to that speed, then when I tried dropping the speed back down it crashed when I pushed set. I was never able to take it that high agian, it would always instantly crash if I tried setting it that high. The CPU is a 4/20 3700+. It is doing 2.8GHz completly stable though.

Nice craig, what kind of cooling?

General question for all: Whats the highest vcore an AMD can take without frying it? Just wondering I'm modifying my BIOS.

Here's a totally unstable max screenie from my week 33 FX53 + R507 prom cooling

A R404a system. I always give my A64s 1.7V as if it was the "stock" voltage.

33-34 seconds if memory is 1:1

True :D
1:1 real gives a lot performance even with CL3 3-4-4-8 1T like mine

you could give it a little more voltage on water but not much. it will just overheat and crash if you give it too much.

I've got a 3500+ (DH7-CG 130 nm newcastle) with 1 gb of corsair pc4000 xms v3.3 and an MSI K8N neo 2. Max stable is about 2.53ghz got to 2.6 at 1.7v but I don't really know if it's really stable.

Is 1.7v even safe (bios 1.55v +10%). I need 1.65v or a bit less to get is stable to 2.5ghz (10*250). The mem goes to 260 at least but doesn't do 1T at this speed.
Can anyone tell me if 1.7v is safe enough to run at costantly. Load temps are about 50C-53C (according to corecenter, Pc wizard 2004 and MBM tell me 48-50C. Idle is 37C at 1.65v and 2.5ghz.
