L12 mod

Has anyone tried the L12 mod on CPU that went into an EPoX ?

From what I can tell most of the users in this thread have abit and if thats the kind of FSB thats yielded after the mod then I will invest in an Abit.

jonspd,

I'm looking forward to your results. I have a 0319 1700+ DLT3C that I may try xigfrid's L12 trick on. I'm currently stuck at 220 MHz DC but this may be due to the crappy OCZ Gold RAM I have (I'm exchanging it for OCZ PC3500 EL DC).

xigfrid, that guy on AMDMB.com forums is very arrogant and your English is not the reason he was being a jerk. Your findings are very interesting and I encourage you to post more often at XS forums, where you will not be attacked by self-proclaimed "overclocking gods."

Well my plan's are to see which of the 2 nf7-s board overclock on fsb the highiest and then mod the board do the vdd and add cooling where ever needed. If both board' stop around 220+ something then I will know to try this mod.


BTW thanks pc ice for the idea we have a hobby shop around here somewhere and will do it that way sence it doesn't hurt your chip.


My only thought's are that I might not be able to reach a high fsb in DC so there for I'am going to have to decide between 2 thing's 1 buffalo 3200 winbond and 1 hyperx 3500 and hope one of the 2 will do 235 fsb. 470 ddr is something to look forward to.

As I asked bf will this work on Asus A7N8X or not bs I really dont think that I could get that much FSB ???
The BIOS dosnt let me select more then 1.85V every thing is limited ):

I have tryed whit a wire bs could not fint the pait so no luck for me !!! my ram is only 3200 so I think I could not push it harder bs my bios only supports 2.8V on DDR So I dont know

how do u mod your power supply ?? MHM

You open it and try to find a pot, oherwise you add it yourself :)
IIRC the last pin of the L3 is to unlock the cpu or something like that, pc ice can you be more precise?

ok so to do this mod on a 1700 i just closr the third l12 bridge?

Do you guy's think a little peice of wire and clear tape will stay on and work it's just a thoght I had. I see look's like someone used supper glue so Y not something like shipping tape clear with a little peice of wire and place the tape where the wire closes the 3 L12 bridge.

A friend of mine had the same idea to unlock his 1800+ XP and it was a complete failure no matter how precise we were

Ok well let's try this which 2 pin's do you have to connect on the motherboard socket to be the same as the L12 mod?

I've done it but i don't know if the mod worked, how can i check if my cpu is now a 166MHz chip?
Isn't there a jumper to change on the nf7?

WOW!

So by modding my 1700+ to a 166MHz Bus on the chip it should get me far greater overclocks on my nF7 S r2?

And I just join that L12 bridge?

I HAVE DONE THIS AND IT DID NOT WORK FOR ME

Hey pc ice, can i do the 3.3v psu mod with a couple resitors in a series or sumthin dood?

also ive been stuck at 194 max not stable do u guys think connecting an l12 might stagbilize me at higher fsb?

yeah 8k3a, did the l12 mod seemed the same so i decided to try to get my 3.3v rail up from 3.24. I went to do the mod u describe but then i remember the PSU having 2 pots and couldnt remember what the second pot did, i knew one did 12v/5v and it turns out the other lil pot is for 3.3v WooohOoo.

so i tweaked that pot and me 12/5v pot and now im at 12.16, 5.05 and 3.42 wooot!

hafta try high fsb again, do u guys think 3.3v rail being fixed is good for fsb?

awesome dood, thanks for the tips wish i hadda unlock multi to play with i hate cranking her up to 13x194 cuz i need 1.95 for 2.52 to be stable. where 2.4 is rock solid at just 1.8vcore (13x185)

so far ive hard modded the cpu's default vcore to 1.65 (for a diff board) and tried unlocking 13+ multi's with no success so ive got my 5th L5 blown for a default of 13. Just cant seem to enable the high bit multi's. May reconnect my fifth L5 to get all my lower multi's accessable again and try for higher fsb now that ive done the L12 and PSU tweaks.

thanks again for your help dood.

From what I have read you should be able to wire the to red pin holes together to make your 2100(266) a 2700(333) by default. I'am going to be tring this after I have setup my NF7-s on my 8rda.

is this good for a 400W ps ?? And If I do this ps mod will I be able to get a bit more from my OC ??

I see that your 12+ and 3.3 is kinda low is it about the same as in bios?
