You did lower the HTT to 4x right?
even at 210???? no i didnt should i have? i mean i know when using higher ocs you have to but i didnt realize that just a mere 10mhz would cause me to have to lower it? ok i go try 4x now :p:Quote:

Oh and dont forget to set AGP to 67, for the locks to kick in.
hmmm? this detect pci lock crap should i disable that or leave it set to auto? also i tried ldt 4x and 3x witht the htt set to 210 @ 1.55v memory set to 2.8v and i got blue screen at start up?? im using a FX-53 and i was hoping that i would be able to oc to atleast 25-2600mhz before having to up any voltages... sooooooo i either have memory conflict or this chip is going to require some voltage? just dont see 210 being even close to the limit where i should be having to up the voltage to ANYTHING??? anyone? any idea's? ill try disabling agressive timmings and set it to 67 mhz to see if the lock kicks in or not??
thx perc,
I'm glad I didn't encounter any of the problems a lot of you are experiencing. I picked up my board and a 3000+ Winchester from mWave this morning, installed everything into my case, and took it to work.
I plugged everything in and powered up my rig about an hour ago. I initially booted up at 201MHz with no other changes to BIOS. From there, I bumped it up to 275MHz with 2x512MB memory modules running 1:1 at 2.5-3-3-10. I'm currently running SuperPi 32M and will post a screenshot of that alongside a Sandra screenie when it completes.
VCORE is currently at 1.550V and VDIMM is at 2.85V. 2475MHz (37.5% overclock) isn't too shabby for my first hour. I hope there's still some more left in this puppy.
Would any of the BIOS files after version 1.3 happen to have provisions for more VDIMM? 2.85 isn't cutting it as I know my 3200 Platinums were scaling with more voltage on my DFI 754 rig.
Cheers!
:toast:
The 1.36 has more vcore, but I think 2.85 is the max vdimm in any of the BIOS
if you can get the 3.3 line up to over 3.4, you get a pretty nice boost in vdim.
I think I need more than a little boost. If the DFI NF4 isn't out by next week (I know it won't be out yet), I'm going to purchase an OCZ Booster so I can push 3.3V to these Platinums.
The proxy server here at work isn't allowing me to connect to my FTP server. I'll upload my screenshots when I get home in about 2 hours.
My 3000+ is now at 9x291MHz with a healthy dose of 1.550Vx10% pumping through its transistors. I just finished 16M SuperPi and started the 32M run. That's a 45.5% overclock good for 2619MHz as of this writing. Memory is at 5:6 because I've reached my max at 280MHz 1:1 with 2.85V. My RAM needs more juice.
Screenies to follow in a few hours.
EDIT #1:
Anyone using the BIOS from Onepagebook? Did you find that it helped your overclocks?
EDIT #2:
Here's the screenshots I promised earlier:

http://webpages.charter.net/conrad-d...290_on_air.png
Super Pi 32M failed towards the end of the 24th iteration when the HTT was set to 291MHz. I dropped it down to 290MHz, completed Super Pi without incident, and was able to run Prime95 for a little over an hour.
I'll run Prime95 for 24 hours after I post this and see how everything fares. If 24 hours of Prime95 without incident is a success, I'll start playing with BIOS 1.36, 1.37, and the one I downloaded from Onepagebook.
Cheers!

hey with this 1.37 moded bios i have lost firewire suport? anyone know else notice the lack of firewire suport with this bios?
thx perc,
I have 1.37 modded and no probs with firewire - my pod is plugged in right now :DQuote:

Is this a known issue with this bios?
Also have some issues with soft boot / reset not picking up my system (sata) HDD, even at stock. cold boot is fine.
Can anyone shed some light on this?
Apart from these minor issues I love this bios.

*edit* ok never mind on the hidden options it seems this 1.3b7 bios has them un hidden? NOW im still looking for the damm firewire optionin the bios? ever since i flashed the bios over to this 1.3b7 its not there anymore? i rember seeing the damm setting with the old bios but with this new one its gone! i need to get my firewire going cause i have all my files on this other hd :( anyone know what the hell? i wonder if i got a wierd flash somehow? maybe reflash?? anyone?
thx perc,
so if i set CPU VID to 1.55v and 15%. it would change the voltage?
ClockGEN says my max volt is 1.450 even after i set my volts.. whats up with that?
ahh yup it worked:
stock cooling, ram @ 166 [204]
cpu @ 36C

make sure your using the right sata slotsQuote:

conrad.maranan, theres a very simple 3.3v rail to vdimm mod, so vdimm=3.3v rail :)

I think i got a bad CPU and/or Taiwan chipset on the mobo
I cant go over 270 HTT no matter what
i tryed LDT @ 3x, multi @ 8x.. cpu @ 1.73v ram @ 133 divider :(
any tips guys?
i got 2x512 mb ocz pc3200 el platinum (with ch-5 chips) i put them in slot 1 and 3 and the booster in 4 (in the msi k8b neo2 platinum) that's ok for oc'ing?
In you have them in dimms 1&3 thats single channel, put them in slot 1&2 for dual channel.Quote:

In other words, the memory doesn't seem to speed up along with the HTT... :(
-edit-
I had set my computer to ACPI Multiprocessor PC... I set it back to Uniprocessor PC and it's ok now :)

but on the msi page it says i could put it in 1 and 3 for dual channel! :confused:
No 1&2 is dual and yeah booster in 4.Quote:

how do you guys get 1.8++ vcore.. i cant get over 1.73 with 5.550 + 18.3%
See post.Quote:

peace perc,
Wow, how about that.. before my board would not do 250.. and now it can boot 300*9..
here is a screenie before i made the chages in the bios
http://aonic.net/~oc/300.JPG
it wasnt stable @ 2.7 ghz with stock cooling and 1.744 vcore.. but it booted :p
what did you do? you change th bios or what? please tell :)
thx perc,
