Duron 1.3 @ 1781mhz teaser

[sysfailur]

Since my 2200+ is fried... (see AMD forum) I've been playing w/ my 1.3 .... I'm going to be working on this proc for the next few weeks. I'm hoping to hit 1.8 w/ it. Anywho, check it.

p.s. If anyone knows how to unlock the 1.3 please let me know, cus it's not just "connect the L1s".

LoL... tis all good. I started to post up and it wasnt there.. I finished the post, and it was!~! LoL.. Nice OC there man.

Whats the stepping on that? I got me a pair of 1.3 Durons, but no OC'ing those, Tyan 2466 board.

I think that is the steppings on mine........ cant recall for sure, but Im pretty sure.. hmm....

[JCviggen]

like I said in your thread at the [H] , unlocking that Duron is the same as the 2100+ XP cos it uses a 13x multiplier. you need to connect the L1 bridges and then cut a bridge responsible for the higher multipliers m8

Quick question about the Epox 8k3a+ temp sensors... my temps in bios were reading 22 - 22 and 25 - 25 for cpu - chipset. Mind you I have a 226w on the cpu and 85w on the chipset. I KNOW I'm not getting those temps... is this a bios problem? What's the deal with that.

[N8]

is that BIOS temps or MBM temps?

I think for the Duron the 8K3A reads from the in-socket thermistor and I believe that other sensor is somwhere else on the board other than the chipset (like in the PCI area). Think i read that somwehre, don't quote me :D

[sysfailur]

Those are bios temps. MBM doesn't load in safemode for me, and I was having normal windows problems, not due to the overclock, but due to me taking out about 5 things from my computer and now it doesn't feel like working properly :\

[UaZa]

the MB temp is not the chipset temp..
the sensor is around the #2 pci.. in the left corner ;-)

[KnightElite]

The second sensor on the AT7 is down in the bottom left of the board, don't know how EPoX does it.

An update... Like I mentioned before (I think) I couldn't get into windows @ 1781mhz... I could get in @ 1701mhz, and here.... is my most stable. The prob was that the darn thing got too hot... the ice melted and just caused all sorts of probs. Also note, i still have MBM labeled incorrectly as a 2200+, as that was what I _HAD_ in it just a week ago or so :P

heats gonna remain your biggest problem with that duron bc they still use aluminum for the interconnects in the core instead of copper like the xp has ive got a 1.1 that runs 1500 until the temp rises above 37 celcius then instant locl u its a new chip so hopefully ill have more luck as it gets broekn in from normal usage

I know this is a bit off the subject, but I have to ask this anyway. Sysfailur, how the hell did you get your Corsair running that fast??? How much voltage do you have going to it, and is it the 256 or 512 mb stick?

[sysfailur]

It's @ 3.1v on my Epox 8k3a+. It's the 256mb stick. Double-sided, version 1.1.

This is on my Duron.....

3.1v??? That Corsair must be writhing in agony. I wonder how long it will live. Thanks.

[sysfailur]

Hahah But oddly enough, @ 3.1v, and even at that high of a speed, it's not even warm to the touch!
