Basically a Thermalright Xeon cooler with the mounting stuff of the stock cooler. Seems like it'll fit perfectly as long as you move the external power connector. P4GD1 should arrive tommorow or the next day. Will test if it fits then, don't see why it wouldn't though. And will test performance as well :)
Got my 2nd P-M 740 (retail box) and it won't boot at 200x13 even w/ 1.5v,
however it boots at 200x12 w/o any problem w/ voltage all the way down to 1.4v...
My other P-M 740 is an oem unit and it runs rock solid at 200x13 w/ 1.475v bios setting.
So frustrated, this new p-m 740 even has a later batch code, yet it just won't boot at 200x13 or even 199x13...
there are newer dothans that just hit a wall at some frequency, mine for example does 2.48 without problems at 2.4v in bios, but it just wont do 2.5. it all depends on the luck of the draw, and im afraid you got unlucky.
I am testing stability now running at 200x12@1.4v using 3dmark2001se looping infinte...hopefully it will at least run stable at 2.4GHz...
BTW, the batch code is 7514B114 and pack date is 04/28/2005
same problem here with my 740. Runs fine 13x198 with stockcooler, changed to a better one this weekend the temps went down 10-15c under load I can now bench up to 2.7ghz but I can't get it stable for more than a couple of hours in prime @13x200
This retail 740 is stable at 200x12 w/ default voltage, but it seems to hit a wall regardless of setting or voltage at around 2.46GHz.
I could boot up w/ o any problem at 189x13 or 205x12, however, if I increase the speed to 190x13 or 206x12, the system will freeze a few seconds after boot up.
Increase FSB by even just 1MHz to 190x13 or 206x12, the system simply refuse to boot up. Increase voltage to 1.5v still same result.
I just remembered that other P-M 730 tested earlier this month shows similar result, it could run 200x12 at 1.375v stable but I can't get it to stabilize at 250x10. Both chips are made in Philippines w/ date code around 14th week of 2005.
I have a problem here, my max stable oc didn't increase one single mhz when changing from stockcooler to an thermalright sp97, the temps dropped 10-15c and max bench increased but I cant get i stable @200x13 no matter what voltage I set. I'm running an p4gplx, anyone with an solution?
Increase your VAGP and see if that helps. You may need to do a VAGP mod.
that won't help overall overclocks, it "MIGHT" help getting to a higher fsb tho..Quote:

I ask because I have tried 3 CPU's; a 730, 740 and 750. Oddly, they all have about the same max OC regardless of multi or FSB settings. Something seems to be holding them back. I read Hipro's guide to modding the CT-479 but that seems to help FSB speeds more than max OC.
So, to those of you with multiple adapters, will a CPU clock higher on one than another?
I own 4 adapters........None of them has taken my CPU's higher no matter what.......It's about the CPU(well almost) on how to react.......But I've tested a 730, 740, and 3 x 770 CPUs and the worst of them was at 2750MHz..........How come and you cannot go higher?......Don't feed them above 1.55 - 1.5885VCore.......Some (rare) pieces of them, do listen above that but 95% do nothing above 1.575VCore.......They also makes things worse over 1.575VCore.....Quote:

I have your board and cpu. I can overclock just a little more than you with air cooling. Water cooling is useless for you. You will have to be in the -C to get any more of an oc. You seem to have way too much voltage also. I set the bios to 1.5 and asus probe reads 1.6. I am not sure which is correct.
Have P4GPL-X + 740M and a P5GDC-Pro.. i915PL and i915P rescpectively..
It seems that these boards/chipsets overvolts quite a bit..
If you set VCore to a value.. "actual" value usually is 0.05 to 0.075 more read from AsusProbe (or any other utility "probin" Bios sensors).
Must agree with previous "speaker".. It is of little use to increase VCore (actual) over 1.55/1.60 unless we're "talking" sub-zero cooling.. :)
I've been reading old posts about dothan and overclocking to see if there are any tips i might missed,
and I have a couple questions maybe someone can help me figure out.
What does VAGP has anything to do w/ overclocking? If PCI/AGP is locked at 33/66, then how dows VAGP help?
Some says VAGP helps system to run stable at higher FSB, but how so?
Anyone has clear answer to whether or not P4x800 series has correct PCI/AGP lock (33/66) at 200FSB?
From what I gathered, at 200FSB, PCI/AGP is indeed set to 33/66, but if using SetFSB or Clockgen, then PCI/AGP divider will not stay lock?
Lastly, what is vdroop? Is this the mod done to either cpu or adapter so it always gives a certain vcore?
vagp also increases volts to the northbridge, thus maybe helping you get to higher FSB..Quote:

Thermalright SI-9XV mounts perfectly with the stock mounts!
Can't test yet, haven't got a 24pin PSU atm...
Can you take a few more picts? This setup looks promising!
But I am a bit worry about if it will stay perfectly flat between the die and heatsink's surface.
From the pict, it looks as though the mounting hook is a bit tilted?

Sorry I'm not much of a photographer...
i cant see it clearly on the pics, so ill just ask; do you need to bend the power pins to the adapter to get it fit?
Yeah, or just remove the pins and solder the power connectors onto the other side - you need that for most coolers...Quote:

Figured the heatspreader wasn't making good contact.
Removed it and went to stock cooler.
Still up at 75C.
Shut it off, felt the die - a healthy 30C (approx).
So i figured I have on ****ed up sensor.
So went back to my thermalright solution, got it to 45C in the bios.
Set the vcore to 1.54V.
Set the FSB to 218MHz (max of the RAM).
And made it to windows- just getting the bench stuff ready.
EDIT:
Lol I love this board:
75C idle!
69C load...
:P
Ain't throttling either.

Kamerat, what did you use as the shim? It looks like some kind of a foam?
Is the P4P800E-Deluxe supported? And do I have to flash my bios? Cause it won't boot now :( I can see on the asus site that it's supported, but just want to be sure...
yes, it is :)
But I guess not from the default bios? Cause it just won't boot :( And I don't have an old cpu to flash it...Quote:

I can live with manual tweaking but not for long...
uh... is the SE bios really ok, don't want any raid issues...
If you use the Promise controller, it won't work. If you use the ICH5R controller, it will work. You really shouldn't use the Promise controller anyway as it has performance issues. Try benchmarking your drives using each and you will shortly be using the ICH5R full time.Quote:

It posts then goes to the RAID configuration and where it typically comes up with the Windows XP screen, it goes blank and does nothing. I have tried the jumper settings for 400 and 533 FSB with no change. Has anyone else had a problem like this?

Perhaps someone has a more positive comment, but isn't this just the perennial overclocking problem of being able to boot the PC, but not make it into Windows?Quote:

Since I am running in RAID, I will try it without. Maybe I will try booting off PATA. I don't think these things will make a difference since I am not booting at high FSB speeds (220 max and usually less than 210).
Anyone have any idea where i could find a guide for modding the fsb jumper bit, so it doesnt stick up, i've seen a few pics but never really a description, cheers
Yes, it's some kind of 3 mm thick "self sticking" foam, not sure what type or brand. Used the same stuff to isulate the CT-479. :)Quote:

So I started thinking and looking around what I could use. After doing the research the processor is .82mm above silicon. So a 1mm shim would work great. I found a 1.5-2m thicker rubber that I don't think I'm going to use as it is too thick! So I found a gladware container, exactly 1mm thick and semi plyable plastic. Capable of handling 55c easily, think microwaveable, boiling water, etc... Pictures below.
Pic1, Pic2, Pic3, Pic4
Thoughts?
I'm considering adding a layer of electrical tape to one side to up the squish effect under Zalman 9500 tightening. I will seat the HSF and then remove to see how the contact went. I am planning on flipping the S bracket on the unit and will monitor the tightness. Any other hints or tips? I don't see anywhere that anyone ever attempted a 9500 on a Dothan.
Also the EIST util and the CPUMSR link are not working.
Eist is just not there anymore and when you got download CPUMSR the download times out. I'd be more then happy to put these on my domain with unlimited bandwidth as a mirror.
Thanks! PM me if you have it and I'll send you an email addy to attach the file to :)

I did this with some stripped 16 guage wire that I crimped around the stock HSF posts as seen in the pictures below. Final step was inserting a washer underneath the sclip. I am still contemplating a 2nd washer, but have not done so yet. I need to get some feed back on my temps before I try to get the HSF tighter. First my idle temps with 1.6v (1.54v) is 44c, at full load it hits 60-61c. This is at a 13x215 OC. Running Prime95. Temps quickly come down to 44c upon stopping

For those of you who had modded zalman hsf to use w/ ct-479 and dothan,
the clip where you insert screws to mount with brackets has a slight angle makes it not flat.
Do you flatten it out then proceed with tighten the screws or do you leave it untouched?
Left it untouched... you need all the force you can since you flip the brackets it increases the height by about 3/4 inch I wish we had straight bars, that way i could get some clamping force!Quote:
Originally Posted by justthinking
I since have moved the brackets back to their normal position where they droop down but mounted them onto of the existing 478 bracket... it lowered the entire clamping setup about 3mm on each side... it has made about a 4c difference in temps! I was nervous to put that more clamping for down but that is exactly what she needed. Max temps are 52-54 at full load now.
Sunin: You could think of resizing those pictures, they are HUGE....
An other thing is why do you put so much thermalpaste on your CPU? You only need a thin layer to get optimal results.
Well rule of thumb is a bb sized drop... well as I found out the first time that is too much, so I since shrank that down to just a thin strip. When I checked it the last time it had hardly any over spill.Quote:

I would like to know what you guys think about using 2w resistors for the vdroop mod before I proceed.
So what is too hot for the Dothan? I read 100c on the intel page but that sounds insane!!!

Overall stability is great, I've run Prime95 for over an hour with temps getting up to 54c. Keep in mind this processor is rated at 1.375v and I'm juicing it 1.50-152v under load. Idle temps are around 38c, with 24c ambient temps
I read on Intels sight this processor has a max operating temp of 100c, Am I missing somthing... those are insane temps!!!
Next steps are waiting for a 50k Ohm pot to do the vdroop mod. I'm planning on max of 1.8v, which should translate to about 1.75v at load. Assuming temps don't go too insane! For now I'm happy with the swap and will most likely be selling my 3.2EE since every aspect of my computing experience is faster now! Well I assume multitasking would be slowed now, but maybe not, not sure how I could check that!
try to do an ecoding round, i am sure that 3.2 EE with HT will win...
the perfect cpu is dothan dual core with HT, maybe a yonah with HT is possible?
I know I'm sitting here wondering why Intel never put one of these on a 1066FSB platform with an dual core... I mean honestly this thing rocks... I'm totally impressed. :banana:Quote:

no actually I had set the 533 jumpers originallly and the silly thing won't boot.... rightnow I have no jumpers set... I'll try the 400. Well even at 400 the max I could set the FSB is 240ish... Its just a limit of the mobo...Quote:

My score : 3dMark 05, 03, 01 / 6011, 15326, 32079
P-M 740 @ 200x13=2.6Ghz w/ X800 Pro 12 pipelines @ 540core/580mem
im trading my 6800le for the same card
so @ ur clocks and cpu speed, it's looking very nice, as I should be able to push higher with my 760 :D
Well my core and mem is at 415/575, so it is not surprise you eeked out my Ultra even with 16 pipes. I'm still monkeying around some... the system seems to hit a wall of diminishing returns much above 230 fsb, so I need to play with it some. I also think I have a 6k + run in the system as is, just need to finish tweaking a few things. You've got some really nice scores for a lesser processor and less pipelines, some of that might have to do with your memory settings as well.Quote:

My processor can do higher, tried 210x13=2.73 and 225x12=2.7, yet it perform the best at 200x13 w/ full PAT and tightest memory timing of 2-2-2-5.
just increase the FSB after booting @ 200, with setfsb for example ;) you will keep pat full enable .
lowest I can go memory wise is 2335 so that is some of the reason for the difference.Quote:

BTW, anyone here has an unused ct-479 stock cooler they want to sell?

Yes.. the "locks" kicks in at 199, 201 for my XT800 PE, not for 200.. and PAT is disabled/performance are similar ("slow") for all three choises..
This board/Bios (1009.004) enables PAT only when RAM-speed is set to DDR500 (or DDR533) as stated in "Stryg's" sticky..
My P4P800-E Dlx "rig" behaves as you ("wwww" and "Lawrywild") explains though..
Well mine was with a P4P800se...Quote:
