Now why would you ruin an otherwise good thread,with a crappy overclock. :slapass:

fr@me,have you figured out how to do any volt mods to your board yet? I'm sure you could squeeze just a little more out of it with higher voltages. :D

[Serge84]

Oh its on.. I'll put my 2500 under d-ice today and see how she does.. Though pushing 470fsb for 3.3ghz is going to be interesting on a nf3

The 2500 is limited to 2450mhz. Anything higher it will not post even on a DFI board. 350 unfortionitly is the limit no matter who ya talk to. I have aready gotten there. Appears 2500+s and 2800+s are completly diff. Too bad too. But sempron 64 2800's are the best semprons to OC I beleave.

To the dude that got the awesome OC. Thats very impressive. I'm going to get myself a 2800 and some G skill ram brake some limits of my own with my board. Hee hee. :cool: G skill ram is nice for getting insane MB/s.

There is a big thread on IHS removal. Look it up in Best of AMD section.

Try using a non-heatpipe HSF under extreme low temperatures! I don't think heatpipes are effective in that temperature range. Something like XP-90C with a high CFM fan like Tornado should do a lot better

I think you need to revert back to an older bios. Try 1002 or 1005. BTW nice oc on default vcore.

@ fr@me

here is what is says on the hs

sda2800aio3bx
lbble 0540 mpmw
xxxxxxxxxx50005

i know voltmod can help , its actualy runnig at a lower vcore than stock,and i know a person who has amazing skills in that area, he can put a ram chip on the pcb again if it broke off. But i cannot find a mod for the K8N4 e deluxe. btw this is a bad rev. i've got the first one so i think it wont do 400 mhz ht. but it will do close to 1300 mhz htt speed, 1350 doesn't work.
I can get an rev 1.01 from i friend, this will do over 350 ht with my cpu but it i cant get it stable at even 2400 on that board.

and what do you mean with using s&m ?

@oicurafox2000
I think you need to revert back to an older bios. Try 1002 or 1005. BTW nice oc on default vcore. ???
I cant change the vcore in any bios, so why should i go back to any of those ? beter voltage stability ??

btw this is with an cnps7000A cu in a room on the attic, room temp appr. 21 C

edit : and yes i know a s754 runs better on 1x ddr than on 2x or even 3, but over here it seems to make no difirence. i can do 3x ddr ram at the same speeds, it wont go 1 mhz higer if i only put one in. The voltage is limiting this one, i realy need a changable vcore. Are there great biosmodders in the place ??
btw temps are 24 idle and 34 stressed

What board are you using at the moment?
If it is still the 8NPJ: What tweaks do you use, to reach this damn high FSB(HTT^^)? Was it not necessary to cool the mosfets? Are there now any mods for this Board?

[oicurafox2000]

@oicurafox2000 I cant change the vcore in any bios, so why should i go back to any of those ? beter voltage stability ??

From my understanding,(I have this board,I've just been too lazy to mess with it) this boards earlier bios's supported changing the Vcore on the Sempron's,but they later changed that with the later bios's. Anotherwords,if you flash to an older bios,you might have the ability to change the Vcore. I might mess with mine a little this week. I have pics of the VDimm mod if you need anymore then 1.7V. to your ram?

[Serge84]

The best S754 mobo is my mobo. http://valid.x86-secret.com/show_oc?id=55250 Somebody finally showed me this what my mobo can do... this is the best OC somebody has ever gotten on this cpu I beleave. And it was with a Tforce6100 S754 keep in mind. But it is not my OC. I didn't get a cpu with a memory controler that good. 110% OC I just thought it would be cool to show.

3ghz on a Sempron 64 2500+ I really wish I had a cpu this good. The best mobo is more of a taste and of oppinion. Everybody has their favs. More ppl should get Tforces. They have know idea what they can really do. I call it the budget DFI killer. Why, well damn if i had a good mem controler I would have a OC like that. Now I really can't wait to get my hands on that venice S754.

[LyP0]

@ frame

forbidden
cannot acces the ftp to download the file
and what do you mean by use only 2 sides ram ? i am running on a set of geil one, so that's 2 identical ram sticks, i dont use the third because my other ram is uccc and can't keep up with the ohter sh*t.And i run on 2 sticks because using only 1 stick doesn't provide a advantage so in this case is 2x 512 faster than 1x 512.

Vdimm: 3,2V
But you can't change Tref, MAL and RP timings :( Only by A64Tweaker.
=> Much inconveniences with RAM overclocking.
Vcore: If 1,5 default, you can change to 1,80 and next to 1,95
If 1,4 default, you can change to 1,7 and next to 1,85 (not work).

How much did it help removing the IHS?

It's depends of cpu. My friend's Newcastle with IHS oc'ed to 2.4GHz 1.6v, after remove ISH @2.5GHz 1.5v :eek: . I try with one a64 - about 70MHz more at same vcore, my another friend got 60MHz extra.

Try that, but be careful - it's easy way to damage your cpu :fact:

[AsAsIn8eR]

That's cool.What do you think will it work on mine?Does this earn extra mhz because the capacitors are cooled better?I was able to boot at 3ghz but it got stuck at win:( The PSU had 11.2 on the 12v rail:)).

[MaSell]

That's cool.What do you think will it work on mine?Does this earn extra mhz because the capacitors are cooled better?I was able to boot at 3ghz but it got stuck at win:( The PSU had 11.2 on the 12v rail:)).

I think it will work:) . It's give extra mhz, because cooler cooling directly core, IHS "breaking" heat from cpu. Lower temp = more mhz = more fun :banana:

And last think.... change this "PSU":slap:

ok, got a E6 2800+ tonight. can only do 340x8 with water and 1.8(possibly lower, never tried). temps stay low. but cant get it high, and dont wanna give more volts. should i keep this one and remove the IHS and see how it goes. or should i get rid of it and try to get a new one? place had only one.

[WeStSiDePLaYa]

just an update. been able to get it going at 350x8 with about 1.575 vcore. not sure how stable it is, and keep in mind this is on water. gonna see what the stepping are at another local shop and see about picking another one up.

What boards are you using? DFI nf3-250? My tforce sucks big time. HTT limited at only 285 :/

[oicurafox2000]

What boards are you using? DFI nf3-250? My tforce sucks big time. HTT limited at only 285 :/

What? Theres something wrong then. I've had my Biostar up to 384 HTT,and then my 2800+ crapped out (no multis to drop). I own the DFi NF3 250(Crappiest board ever),Chaintech VNf3-250,Asus K8N-E Deluxe,and an ABit KU8,and the BioStar destroys all of the others boards by alot.

[Fr3ak]

Well I put as 5 on the NB and SB, but that didnt make a change. I am running 284x8 with stock volts, 286 makes windows crash, even with 1.7v, so I guess it aint the cpu. Too bad you cant change chipset voltage. That might help.
I wanna get another sempron 2800+ rig and I am not so sure if it is worth getting another tforce as it seems like its a hit and miss :/

[shmaa]

Both of my 2800+'s are running in DFI LP NF3 250GB's.

[WeStSiDePLaYa]

yeah im using dfi board too. picked up another chip today too. older stepping, see how it goes. post pics and results later if i get time.

Sounds like a bios issue. You need to use the cr51mb02. It has all of the newest memory settings,and will solve your HTT issue.

There are some more here. http://lejabeach.com/Biostar/6100-939/6100939bios.html

I'll try BioStar TForce 6100. Maby it will be NEW WR :)

[WeStSiDePLaYa]

whats the full cpu stepping of your chip? is it an lbbwe?

[Fr3ak]

I am already using the B02 bios. Didnt make a change at all.
I had now 2 tforce board, one was maxed out at 270 and the other one at 285. Hopefully the third one will be better.

[xttz]

Da tu prosto molodec =) nice job!

[mindwreck]

nice overclocks. even at 1.6v my D0 sempy won't go higher and i don't want to push the voltages any higher.

[AsAsIn8eR]

Did anyone try to put an xp90 or a sonic tower on a naked Sempy?Please report in and one more thing what is the hight of the core since I wanna order a shim made of cooper.

My XP-90 is on a naked chip. I made my own hold-downs using a bolt,and a spring,so that pressure would not crush the sides of my die.

The first two photos are on a lidded cpu,the last is on a naked chip.

why isnt your 12v connector plugged in???:slap:

Because I solider the +12V. connector to the back of the motherboard. :fact:

Absolutely not,however it is more esthetically pleasing in appearance with no 12+wire in front of my mobo. :)

Nice read guys. can yall tell me what the max vcore you have used. Also Frame WHAT VCORE YOU USED TO GET TO 3.0+?

[AsAsIn8eR]

How do you interpret those numbers?I have LBBWE 0530CAA(strange I only have 3 letters.)

[Fr3ak]

there is another letter in the 3rd row

I have a LBBWE 0548GAD

or is the X already part of the serial number?
Looks strange indeed.

[AsAsIn8eR]

oicurafox2000 did that mod require dremeling the xp90?Or that plate that contains the screw was a fit there?Cause I see that the original xp90 has a channel where the clips stay.Thnx and some pics would help me!A how to..!

[Serge84]

I am already using the B02 bios. Didnt make a change at all.
I had now 2 tforce board, one was maxed out at 270 and the other one at 285. Hopefully the third one will be better.

oicurafox2000 is right, my old sempron 64 2500 I use to have in my Tforce6100 OCed upto 350HTT and 375HTT max. With this board. I am so nearly close to 3ghz after i started burning in my venice on this board at almost 300HTT. I want to try lower multipliers again highest was 379HTT so far last time I tryed on a athlon 64 3000. Newer bioses are out tho then the B02. Look on biostars china sight for 2006 bioses.

You shouldn't have any probs with the board are you sure you arn't doing something wrong? Its just not possible because me and oicurafox2000 rule these mobos. Easyest and best mobos you can use and get high HTT on. If you can't get any higher try clockgen. No way you can have 3 bad boards that can't OC worth anything. My girls mobo OCed just as good as mine and oicurafox2000's. Shes got the same ver 1.1 like oicurafox2000 has. I have ver 1.0. Hmm quite strange the prob your having.

[AsAsIn8eR]

Man I don't know what boards are thoose didn't test them but my DFi does 360HTT and more.I'll take some screens as for now I'm using stock cooler and can't get there as my CPU has stability problems when it hits over 50*C.I guess they are cool if they do that clocks but don't generalize if you had a wrong board.It doesn't meen that another one can't do better.How about the help on the mod?

[oicurafox2000]

No I didn't need to cut anything on the XP-90. I simply used the tool found in my pics below,and unscrewed the clamp-downs. Then I took a old piece of steel, and cut it around 20mm x 20mm and Drilled 2 holes in them(one bigger then the other. Then I put the screw back in to hold my piece of steel,and threaded a bolt from the bottom to the other(bigger)hole. Then I put my spring on there,and put my wing-nut on,and started threading it down. Thats it! Thread both sides evenly,and you won't crush the edges of you naked core.

Its kinda hard to explain,so here are some more pics.

[AsAsIn8eR]

Thnx man cool mod!I'm gonna do it myself soon.

[WeStSiDePLaYa]

update with some clocks and such.

anybody know why such a big difference when i disable L2 cache. it seems it doesnt wanna go higher. first shot is with L2 enable(24/7 speeds), second shot is L2 disabled(test) anyone help with how to get the L2 to OC more? IHS is off. with L2 enabled, anything over 355 is no boot. but 355 is stable.

[AsAsIn8eR]

I never tried doing that!Are you sure it isn't the temperature?A friend of mine that has an opty wasn't stable above 40 degres Celsius in full load after he got it below that it was stable.So it might be that.I noticed that mine gets unstable above 46-50 Celsius.They are pretty sensitive to temperature.

[Fr3ak]

I am currently running 315mhz Htt, but only with a single 256mb stick of ram. The boards is really crap when it comes to ram. 6 out of 8 sticks limited the oc at 250-280mhz :/
There is no way that the board is not the limiting factor on my side. I tested the sempron in a dfi nf3 250gb and it did 2700mhz occt and 32m stable at about 1.55V. Wasn`t maxed out yet, but I didnt have much time.
With the Biostar I cant get anythng above 315 stable, not even at 1.7V vcore, so ......

[AsAsIn8eR]

I currently have some trouble with my mobo don't know why but since I have this board I had 4 types of RAM and only 2 worked in slot 1.My Samsung UCCC SS only works in slot 2&3 and a Geil Value 256MB SS wouldn't even boot at all!

Did you do any cap mods on your Tforce? And where did you get that ram. OCZ 512MB PC-4000 500MHz Gold Series VX? Thats the next ram I want. I'll buy a OCZ DDR booster with it so just one 512mb stick will do. Man that ram is so hard to find, have any ideas?

Thanks!

[AsAsIn8eR]

@ oicurafox2000 do you know can the xp120 be modded the same way?Does in fit on DFI LP NF3?

No cap mods needed here,there are already very nice sanyo caps for voltage regulation. I just got rid of that ram,I bought it refurbished from the egg. Keep looking at newegg for refurbished memory. You wouldn't need the OCZ booster with the mobo,it allows you up to 3.2v. Vdimm,and 3.7v. with a PSU that has adjustable pots. If you don't have adjustable pots,do a 3.3V. sense mod.

[oicurafox2000]

I'll assume that it can be,because its using the same dimensions for hold-downs,and what not. Keep in mind that it might be a tad harder to work on because you'll need to work under more fins. (the screw won't be as exposed,therfore making it harder to thread/do)

[AsAsIn8eR]

I see you attached a 120mm fan to the XP90 have any close shots?Thnx!

Those 3 letters means it's assembled in China, instead of Malaysia.

[AsAsIn8eR]

Yes it is true.Does that mean that it is worst?

[WeStSiDePLaYa]

yup, temp deffiently not a problem. its watercooled and always stays under 38c.

[davidletterboyz]

Yes it is true.Does that mean that it is worst?
No idea. I got a 2500+ 0539GAC. Will try it out soon. Don't know what mobo to choose yet. :(

[AsAsIn8eR]

I would go for the lanparty.You won't have any problems with mods and stuff.With mine I did an almost stable 2880mhz.In my case the problem is the PSU but I'm sure that I can get a better PSU the board is not the problem.

Ahh yes I could do that, I was thinking of getting a OCZ powersupply that could do that. Mines OK. Or I could do the mod. I finally found someplaces that have that memory. And yeah I run this ram on 3.2v most of the time now with cooling but the voltage readings is a bit off on this board its really higher then what it reads about 3.3v for the memory and Vcore 1.78v. The bios or the voltage monitor on the board is just giving slightly off readings. I planned on getting some of that VX ram just to show off. Eather mod get a OCZ booster or powersupply that can regulate Higher volts. My 350 watt isn't really that strong. I was going to replace it in the future.

I know those caps are great, DFI quality they are. Rev 1.1 has afew new cap placements I see tho is what I noticed mine doesn't have so yours maybe slightly more stable. What have you tested that old ram of yours when you had it voltage wise? I'll be doing some out of spec OCing with that VX memory. What memory are you getting to replace that VX stuff?

think you could post some pictures of your board and where the new caps are? i got mine like just when they came out. so im most likely the first rev.

[Serge84]

Mine is Rev 1.0 yeah I got mine when they just came out and my girls is Rev 1.1, but its at her place now. Maybe somebody can who has Rev 1.1, I took a closer look at my board. It just looks like the caps are placed differently. No real change in them same caps just difference in placement is all I really see.

[oicurafox2000]

What memory are you getting to replace that VX stuff?

I don't know yet,I'm still waiting to hear back from OCZ on what they're replacing them with. I had to RMA them because they would never run at stock speeds (not even with 3.5V.)So hopefully I'll hear from them today.

Get these... even better if you can get your memory refunded. Best BH-5 based I ever seen UTT's breath new life into BH-5 like chips. Made to take upto 4v made for the DFI boards and can run upto 580mhz and 600mhz with 2-2-2-5 timmings at those volts. 3.2/3.3v and up. I'm quite impressed with these. Perfect for show and enough to play games on. Damn this is better then my video memory. Can't wait to see my videocard C 256mb's of that. This will be perfect for my games and give me all the performance I ever wanted.

I just ordered them so I'll start showing these babies off in afew days. I don't like my DDR600 OCZ's just didn't give me the performance I was looking for. Because horrible timmings limmited me. Now I can push my comp as hard as I want when I get this memory. Getting that OCZ memory refunded I am.

Edit:My bad the chips really don't have a voltage limit. PPL are running them at 3.8 and 3.9v are reported with the use of BH-UTT chips. This is the best quality stuff I ever seen just insane what it can run at.

There is a little update on my side.
I bought new cheap mdt ram and now I am running 348x9 2784mhz 1 m stable. Seems like I finally found some ram that the board likes. Cant boot at 352htt, but I am still messing around with the windows oc tools.
