have fun

Inferno Katano GTI G14

For the overclock chip
Tweaker FIrmware

does setfsb or the foxconn ocing tool work on it now?
or still only bios ocing? :/
no idea
noone every reported it did not work, think you was the only one to say it does not work so you should have contacted the person that make setfsb with the information lol
@saaya: The Foxconn AegisPanelEx (for oc in windows) works fine since the first day.
@Lord Trident: I tried the new beta bios on my inferno katana:
bugs since BIOS P04:
1) switching between "dynamic mode" and "fixed mode" without cmos-reset before switching results in overvolting the vcore
- for e.g.: selected in BIOS: 1.25v -> hardware monitor and measure point for vcore: 1.55v !!!
2) current core speed in post-screen shows only cpu standard clock while overclocking
wishes:
1) lower pll-voltage than 1.70v
2) lower vdimm than 1.40v
3) lower vref than 0.69v
thanks for the information
will pass on thanks

and there is nothing hiyo can do with setfsb since the pll is controlled by the i-tweaker chip afaik...Quote:
Due to a couple of reasons, one being simply time, and secondly the lack of a Windows tool to adjust the bclk, I wasn’t able to get the maximum performance possible out of this board. I’d be willing to put money on being able to get to 220bclk with setfsb or an equivalent, as the system could fully boot and run SuperPi 32M at 215.
your the first person who said that... i thought there was no tool for inferno katana at all? which version of aegis panel EX do you use? and bclock adjustments work??? :confused:Quote:

you need to add heatsink to the voltage reg, the full version board is a lot better but not many out there (think none in the EU)
i will see if i can get information to the guy who make setfsb so keeping you happy saaya lol
well, at least one full version katana has reached europe... ;)
lol think i got the other 2 :D
and one of them is my work machine now
that would only affect stability under cpu load... it should affect bclock overclocking at all :PQuote:

but dont waste your time on this...
1. i only heard from 4 people using that board, one guy from foxconn china, rich who reviewed it, you, and chebu... so chebu is the only non foxconn employee who played with it that i know of :D the katana is off the radar for 99% of enthusiasts, the people who buy it arent into serious ocing so they probably dont care...
2. IF aegis panel really allows bclock adjustments as chebu claims (but didnt show in screenshots :P) then there is no problem... as long as there is a tool, any tool, thats alright...
190 MHz booted BCLK:Quote:

200 MHz BCLK adjusted with AegisPanel (CoreTemp shows already booted BCLK!):

cool!Quote:

Hey guys, just to clear this up - at the time I reviewed the board I was told there wasn't a version of Aegis Panel that supported bclk adjustment. I haven't revisited the review since then as I wasn't aware there was a version of Aegis that worked.
And Carl - my results weren't too bad so the GTI board is ok! Granted the extra phases on the non-GTI board can't hurt, but nothing wrong with the GTI ;)
@Lord Trident: can you give me any information or feedback about the bugs?Quote:

all i can say is the bug and wish list is passeed to bios person
so it will come but i need more fixes for the destroyer, and i think bloodrage has some more fixes as well
so it will come, just takes time
all right, thanks!
i dont think anybody knew it... none of the reviews mentions the aegis panel tool and iirc thg and anandtech also mentioned that setfsb didnt work and there was no tool to adjust fsb either... thats why i was so surprised to find out it actually works, and for a couple of weeks even apparently... :confused:Quote:
