I'll be ordering a NF7-S V 2.0 soon and in short, I just need to close the bridges to L3 & L12 as you have done ?Quote:

Had a quick look earlier at my week 19 1700+ and the bridges have been miniturised even further, so I don't envisage this being an easy task.
Anyone done these mods via the wire trick and if so care to tell me which pins I should be shorting ?
TIA

Link to Workarounds article and FSB_Sense articles, maybe some others...to get detailed info on which pins/sockets relate to the various bridges, and where they are located in the grid of pins/sockets for modding with fine wire u-loops/jumpers.

hmm i got a xp 1800+ 0322 with the new design.. what about the L12 mod with the new design? any idea ?
Just try and tell us :)
Errr... guys.. I think I screwd it up somehow. I did the L12 mod, mounted the stuff, cleard CMOS and booted into BIOS.
I no longer have the option to run "default" on my CPU, the only choice in CPU Operating Speed menu is "user defined" !!??
The values under softmenu defaulted to 100fsb, multi 5 and CPU interface disabled. I changed it to 133x11 enabled CPU-interface and booted up. So far its working ok.
How is the NF7-S BIOS supposed to behave when you do the L12 mod with a 1700 DLT3C (mine is from 0308), anyone have that combo?
EDIT: ITS WORKING!!! LOL!! I couldn't get more than about 215fsb before and now I'm at 230!! Haha, this is fun!! :banana:
EDIT2: Forgot to say THANK YOU!! :D
What does it say when you first boot after the mod is done?
I don't know if mine is successful
dude , i 'm always amazed when ppl go from 220Mhz bottleneck to 235-240Mhz just this L12 trick ;)
well happy that my trick finally got a dedicated / working thread at Xtrem :D
next step : making it a sticky ;)
To check that : it is really easy , just clear cmos, then reboot : the cpu start at 11*100Mhz, then enter bios save and exit. reboot and look at the FSB speed in bios or in windows: it should be 166Mhz.Quote:

In the other hand, this trick will be considered successfull if you can get at least 20Mhz better overclock on your FSB.
I was wondering about the 200Mhz trick anyone did try it ? last time i did, my comp won't boot, it didn't like somehow the 11*200 don't know why
nice o/c :slobber:
but bandwidth is too low , I got 3703/3430 in sisoft with OCZ EL 3500 @ 2-11-2-2 @ 250Mhz
try to enable cpu interface and uppin your multiplier up to the max you can
with 250Mhz and some amazing cooling in order to get 10X, a guy reached 3900 on sisoft with 2.5-7-3-2, i'm aiming that bandwidth but my watercooling has reached it's limit past 2.4Ghz :/
there's an easier way to do the L12 mod
to turn 133 to a 166 FSB all u need to do is find FSB_Sense 1 pin on the CPU (AH30) and pull it low (tie it to any nearby ground Vss pins) i.e. AH28
Gonna try it later my self but I am 100% confident this mod should definately work
well join 2 large pins with silver lacquer, or a loop of wire is easier than paint 2 small bridges.. which are smaller than a bee's :banana::banana::banana::banana:..
rag, did you do it yet?
what about just using the jumper to set it @ 133fsb
or wouln't that do the trick
Could you post some pics once it's doneQuote:

i saw it on this page linked on xtreme
Quote: UPDATE/OPTION:- Users may refer to socket pinout diagram/s in 25175.pdf datasheet to locate Vss/Gd and Vcc/Vcore sockets near AG31 and AH30 to apply fine wire u-loop "jumpers" to reset their default LO/HI setting/s instead of closing/opening their respective L12 bridges...
Pulling my H2O apart now..
ok, i'm going to be buying an 8rda+ soon, to go along with my XP2100 AIUHB0301.
now, turning this 133fsb chip to a 166fsb chip will gain me better results on the 8rda+??
and doing the 8bit mod will enable a few neat features in the bios??
wow, soo interesting,
thanks...:)
Here is a pic of an L3 mod done underneath the cpu, same principle for L12 just get the correct pins. And here is pic of the same mod using a wire loop.Quote:

Like he says, both methods seem much easier to me than painting the top of the cpu. I did the L3 mod on a 2400+ when I had a KX7-333, took about 2 minutes (plus time to dry). :)
Hey lads,
i've read through this thread a couple of times, and i am still no closer to answering my question....
....is this mod only gonna improve FSB for 133FSB CPU's?
E.G. i have a XP2500+, will this benefit me in any way, going back to a 133FSB
Cheers
. Oh and, this jumper on my NF7-S 2.0, does it actually help also?
I gotta try this again!
First time didn't work, and damn those new process Athlon's are smaller than before!
Nf7-s 2.0 - you want a 333
nf7-s 1.0-1.2 you want 266
Do you know what pins should i join? I'm gonna try that one as the brigdes painting doesn't seem to work on my chipQuote:

I saw a website with all those info some time ago but i didn't bookmarked it

i am not quite sure if i got that right, you say the 8bit mod enables these new options in the bios?
i doubt that only the last L3 bridge is responsible for that because its closed on 1700+/1800+ by default, check out the pic in the first post of this thread to see what i mean. im gonna try this later today, would be nice if someone could tell me more about that L3 mod...

I did the mod joining the pins, it worked good :) heheheQuote:

U need to join AH30 to any ground pin (Vss)... u can find the relative locations on the XP CPU datasheet (25175.pdf)
I will get pics up in 5 mins
I'm gonna wait for a pic before busting my cpuQuote:

I am a happy man....
