L12 mod

any of the u poster r good 1700xp over 2100xp and 2500xp over 1700xp :)

EDIT: LOL

so the 1700's are better i dont get the 2nd part about the 2500's

His order of preference (best first)-
1 xp2500+
2 1700+
3 2100+

If I was going to replace my xp1800+ @2.4Ghz (done 2.5Ghz with cold water) 2.03v; then I would consider the xp2600+ barton. I would imagine that they would generally guarentee a latesr core which *should* be a good thing.

but it is a newer chip and it is locked but it do's great on it's defualt multi so i kept it so it's a toss up on buying a newer locked chip or a older unlocked chip. i would think.

Can you get me the complete stepping? :D

whos stepping mine is airga

I meant pcice's stepping.

But I would suggest you to changing out the a-tbred for a 2600er barton... :) (Think others may have suggested you before)

Edit: Welcome to Xtreme :D

oh yeah oc ice i tried the 8 bit mod and all it did was take away my default and change it to only user defined you i also have to do the pin mod for it to work like yours

The L12 mod I did was to the mobo not the cpu and steal get the same options as pc ice

Try booting @ 200fsb then check the bios. it did the same thing to me"Loser defined";) . but after i went above 200fsb 3200+ became an option. i recently reverted to bios 10 & it did the same thing but listed 3100+ as an option. also when ever i reset the cmos it goes back to Loser defined till i go above 200fsb again.
bios 10 was unstable so im back to 14. this chip seems to like
high fsb but not above multi 11 yet.

i cant get to 200 fsb it wont start i think its memory i only have a 256 stick

pc ice what bios are you using or anyone who got 8 bit mode to work

Is it able to pass any bench???

how can i tell if the l12 mod worked??

See if you can push the fsb higher then before. did you do the 8bit mod? if so youll see +3200 & user defined as the cpu choises.

hey pc ice, wut stepping is that 2500? what cooling do u use? (I apologize if u already mentioned it and I just didnt read it)

If I get the L12 mod done then I'm definitely getting a higher FSB right ?

:thumbsup:

l12 mod didnt' do crap for me.

Ok, correct me if I am wrong. If the L12 mod is successful, my CPU would be detected as 166 default during bootup. Correct ?
