As i understand it, that is exactly what is suppose to happen, just usually comes out to a 2700 or so. Oc it and see how high you get. Let us know of any change.Quote:

have i followed the wrong pictures? will my fsb most likely still be good - or will it be the same. currently as 228 fsb stable like i was at 133fsb.
cheers D:
Goku, are you using the 200mhzFSB mod? Sounds like that is what you have right now. Didn't you want 166mhzFSB mod?
yeah - but i used the pins that i found in the 2 pictures on this thread. checked and double checked - same ones.
anyways, i managed to get into windows at 240fsb @ 11-2-2-2 timings, however i needed to disable the cpu interface for this. this led to a drop in memory bandwidth from 3550/3360 (228fsb) to 3350/3100 (240)!
the mod has allowed me to go higher with cpu interface enabled as well - im hoping for 233fsb.....the memory bandwidth is what im going for as this has given me a lot of boost.
so er yeah - it worked....got me (atm 3 fsb - but hopefully more) with interface enabled but almost 20fsb more with interface disabled.....but probably not worth it D:
thx for ya help guys.
I've did this mod for my AXP 1700+ on my 8RDA+ 1.1 (A3)
It doesn't help me to get higher FSB's :(
I'm very sure I did it correct because the CPU is being detected as 166Mhz. The only difference is that I'll have to remove the 100/133 jumper from the mobo to get the CPU working at multiplier 10 and above.
I was doing 230 x 10 earlier but with this mod, I can't even do 230 stable. I wonder why people are getting good results but I'm not ? Perhaps this trick only works on the NF7 Rev 2.0 ? Any ideas anyone ?
The cause is your northbridge. It's an A3 and we're talking about C1's :( For these nb's cutting the 166MHz bridge was to enable them for high fsb.Quote:

yeah SAE is right. you'll probably need more intense Vdd mod and may need extra cooling on your NB. These old A2 & A3 NB chipsets are vdd voltage hungry and they will take all you give.
I would dis-engage the L12 mod for your setup if I were you.
Has anyone got better results with 200 mod than 166?
Also, i think gokou connected AH30 and AG31 together instead of AH30 to ground... that will actually give you 200 FSB if you do it that way even though i think i always here you have to connect both to ground.
oh to do the L12 mod via pins you have to make TWO connections?

is the pins i have joined...
I dont know why u guys use such complecated methods. I used a pencil.......
i think it was from you? it was either on this thread or linked off it.
I have done the L12 mod but I have a problem with memory, it's Kingston HyperX PC3200, and it can't go over 225MHz, don't know why. I saw posts where they are pushed over 240MHz with 4.2.2.2 sests. Someone has any idea?
what voltage are you running at? It is very possible they did a vdim mod and had some pretty high volts.
I might get to my nf7 mods this weekend. I am gonna have to get them done fast...I am realy close to getting a max3. Also I think I am gonna get a swifty 462-uht for my 1700. I want to see what it can do!
Memory voltage is 2.9V, 3.06 on multimeter, I haven't done vdd and vdim mod yet. I'll try and see what's gonna happend.
well I just got my new 1700 and did the wire drop (ah30 to ah28) not sure why but it showed up as 200fsb instead of 166. :confused:
When the bottom ag31 connection was removed, and only the top ah30 pin remained connected to ground (ah28), the 2100+ L12 became 166fsb.
this is what is in the article. has this method worked for anyone?
I am not sure which one is ah28 but i connect ah30 to the other pin one spot directly to the left(looking at cpu socket not cpu) and get 166 FSB. I have also connected ah30 to ag31 and got 200 FSB.. i have never heard of anyone doing this but i did it on accident and it works just like connecting both to ground i guess.
I am gonna try that with a pencil. If it doesn't work I am gonna pull out the spuer glue and defogger. I got my heatsinks for the mosfets cut. time for some modding.
Use wire in the socket holes... it's so damn easy, it takes like 3 seconds to do the whole mod.
what kind of wire whoul i use? I guess not the stranded kind...what gauge?
I used wire from a telephone line. not happy with the results though.
