yea, its on your cd that came with the mobo, or you can download it at dfi's websight.
While i had my system apart to change my ancient RBX for a Swiftech Storm block i could'n resist the temptation and popped the spreader. :)
Temp dropped a healty 5C under load, cpu can now do things it couldn't do before:
Im getting a opty 146 tomorrow wich will run 2800mhz @ 1.38v :) i will test that and try to Prime @ 3ghz
Oh really??? Well I put in the cd but for some reason it won't open. If you could send it to me that would be great.Quote:

But I was told that I would have to do something with the boot.ll or something like that. So what do I need to do first? Install the amd patch, then the hot fix, and the regisrty key? What order do I need to do it in?:confused:
Finally had to go to bed. New bios is nice! 3hrs@3100 with 1.408v

Once here, interesting shots will be taken. ;)
Zeus after removing IHS ur using Shim also ?
No, no shim.
The Storm waterblock has a very good mount without it.
Atm i have IHS removed but im afraid of put it on naked . I have TT SE watercooling . I dont know how well does that CPU block suits with my CPU .

I flashed my bios 4 times in 24 hours...is that bad?
Im confused now. I removed IHS and it helped with temps but i didnt gain anything with overclocking.
I got that chip from my friend who was running it @ 2800mhz with 1.39v prime stable on Dfi lanparty .
I cant even run 2800 prime stable @ 1.55v ........i have Epox 9NPA+SLI
Opteron 146 CAB2E 0546GPAW
And what means HT Width in bios ? its 16 up and 16 down. What does this give.
Ok, now what is the difference between the DFI.com driver date code 11/14/2005 and the DFI-Street.com driver 704-2bta???? I have the DFI.com driver date code 11/14/2005.Quote:

I've been fortunate enough to get my CABYE Opty148 upto 2.82Ghz (11x255) @ 1.375v and a maximum of 3.03Ghz (11x274) @ 1.45v
I have not gone to the max of 1.55v yet though. Until I have something better then the stock fan, it will have to wait.
The best PC upgrade in many a year....
@turbox997, you can find it here. http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...51&postcount=1 It has some updates and convenience features. I found I could run Prime for a longer time. I like it. I had to 'reset cmos' with this though. Never had to do that before. I used 623 for quite some time, then 11/14 for a couple weeks prior to this one. This one is very nice, and no, as long as you do it correctly.
@neoman, you have to keep it cool. 1.55v makes more heat than 1.39v. Yes, if you are on the line, a couple degrees will make a difference. Also maybe you will still need to configure your board slightly.
@TVFREAKAZOID, 11/14 is a dfi bios. The 704 is a modded one. Many people like it. I did not.
@zpimp, 1) yes 2) some 3)yes. Read what some others use for air cooling. It has come far and works very well.
@Jacksn, nice job. Do some research. It seems you have a good cpu. Get a good fan and get the most from it.
@coop, you the man! haha, answering all the questions in one beast post! Thanks for the info, too bad I don't have a floppy disk drive on any of my computers! I guess I'll have to wait for Tmod or someone to press a CD.
