Ah, okay. Hmm, here's another question. I thought the last one was my last, but now I have another. The modded BIOSes, they all seem to remove the dividers above 200mhz, why? No one likes to run their RAM at DDR speeds? If you're a gamer, low frequency RAM isn't really that great.
set it at 200MHz and it will run 1:1Quote:

To Zork:
Try clearing your CMOS RAM. Sounds like a setting in it is unstable.
Oh, you see, I was under the wrong impression then, I guess. I thought you had to the memory speed in MHZ for you to go 1:1 on a processor.Quote:

I thought that some people adjusted their memory MHZ as well. Reading about how some people clock their DDR400 RAM at 433,466, and 500 speed by adjusting MHZ and timings...
If you, or anyone else can, can you clarify this for me?

setting the mem to less than 200 u will be on a divider
Haha, Zeus, you're the man.
Thanks. I just tried this... I never knew. Works exactly as you say. 200mhz is 1:1 =)
Meaning what?Reset the CMOS...I tried that with no resultsQuote:

I don't have an answer to your post, but I'm not experiencing the problems you are with hard drive speed. Drives are running the same speed as they did on my old motherboard.. so.. =\Quote:

That's a pretty OK improvement over 2200mhz, which is what it normally runs at. I think that it could do more, though, but you can't put any more voltage into it from the BIOS. (I'm already at 1.550+10.0%) Full load for me runs @ about 42-45C and I've tried lowering the multiplier to 10x, higher FSB, and lower HT Freq, but all I get is a black screen.
You might be saying, well, try to adjust the RAM divider, and I have... still black screen.
I highly doubt the RAM is at fault after adjusting the divider, but I am getting some new RAM on Monday which is alot better for overclocking. (Not because of this problem, I've already had it on order..) So, we shall see.
Still, 2695mhz is a pretty good jump from 2200mhz on a dual core X2. I should be happy and I am. =)
Need some help with bumping up my CPU speed. I haven't had much luck in finding info by doing searches.:confused: I don't want to max this out. Just give it alittle safe boost.
My setup
MSI K8N NEO2 Platinum
AMD Athlon 64 3700+ Processor (San Diego)
2 X 512MB of Corsair CMX512-3200C2PRO (2-3-3-6 1T)
Antec SmartPower 500W
2 X 160GB Maxtor HD on a PCI RAID_0
Thanks:toast:

Here's also a good thread on how to overclock.Quote:

I found it very informative.
Anyone else tryed sinking the mosfets for the vcore? I've just got an 80mm fan over mine and i've seen some healthy gains. voltage is up by about 0.03v and seems to be alot more stable (i used to be able to clock high with more voltage, but it was never 100% stable as the voltage was all over the place). I'm going to heatsink them and see if it will be even more stable :toast:
I re-installed (once again my neo2 system)
now WITH d-bracket

system setup :
AMD OPTERON 146+ (E4)
1*512mb Corsair XMS LED (TCCD)
no hdd drive (was just for testing purposes)
no cd drive (was just for testing purposes)
ati radeon 7000 (crappy AGP graka)
pffff:confused:
hiya,
aah brecht, always having trouble with pc's as usual :rolleyes:
Ontopic: Usb 2.0, can't get this going, any one know a solution?
I've got sp1, installed all the drivers for my mobo so..
it keeps on usb 1.1 .

it's not my fault it won't work..Quote:

OT : did you check your bios yet ?
is it enabled ?
Lately I bought 2x512 PC3200 Geil UltraX (TCCD). I know from previous user that these ones can do 300+ Mhz with 2,9V on DFI, but on my NEO2 I can't do anything above 210MHz in dual channel (1T). But when I pull out 1 memory stick (1x512MB Single channel), the other one do 280MHz (1T) with fine timings with 2,85V . I tried 1,36b 1,8 rev3 NFM, some sideefect bioses for TCCD. I also red the guide from 1st page. What can be wrong?
Well, I got some OCZ El Platinum Rev 2 RAM. 2x512MB
I'm able to get pretty high clocks with this, but I can't clock my processor any higher due to the voltage limitation in the BIOS. I find it odd, though, that inside of MSI Core Center, you can pump up the VCore even more than you can in the BIOS. I wonder why they just don't release a BIOS where you can pump up the VCore past 1.70 (1.550+10%) since MSI Core Center can set to 1.85
I don't really want to rely on Windows to finish my overclocking, I'd rather have all my parameters set in the BIOS, so it's kind of an unacceptable solution for me to go higher. Are there any BIOS mods for MSI that go past v1.70 ? (1.550+10%)
Right now, I'm running an AMD Athlon X2 4200+ @ 2550mhz (255x10) with my RAM timings @ 2.5-3-3-7 Very stable and is a decent OC. It'd just be able to go higher if I could set the VCore higher in the BIOS...
no-one who knows a solution ?Quote:

I need help.. I have direct die on my msi and a opteron 165 when o put my bh5 memory´s it work´s fine with divisors, when i put the tccd memory don´t work with divisors, make a lote of erros, i use your bios (1c no temps).. :confused:
sorry guys, do you know if msi k8n supports X2?
yes, it does;)
.. but you have to use a new bios..Quote:
