Well.... after a week or so my CPU magically died..... a reboot and after that..... nothing.... changed the cpu and everything is up and running now.... RIP.

I have modded my cpu and the 192kb extra cache works! I can also clock the cpu as high as before.... Here a simple compare. The first bench is with 64kb cache and the other bench is with 256kb cache.

I'm burning in a mod'd Duron1400 at 2.52GHz and 2.00v atm. Not bad but I was hoping for a little more at that voltage.

Tested my second duron 1600 a bit, did 205*10 @ 1.55V, but then my nf7-s bios chip died...
hoping to get a chip of a friends broken nf7-s this week...
mean time, xp2100+ power

Hi NoStra,

Your post if of very good timing! :)

I have a friend who is at a computer fair right now and is looking at some of these chips...

Could you tell me how you did the mod with the new pcb??? My friend says the pcb is alot different to the old xp and keeps mentioning that the 'channels' are differnent if that makes any sense to you.

The chips he has seen their are MIU...0338's, new style pcb. I need information as soon as possible so i can ring him so he can buy the chip.

Basically how did you mod the chip and do you have any more info regarding steppings and if chips which are more new are similar in performance to the older siblings.

hope you are still abt

thanxs

Get the MIXIB chip...mine is a week 0335 Z
The L2 can be modded very easily. Just fill the lasercut with silverglue, and you are done!

It worked for me

Thanxs 4 the very fast response,

I need 2 confirm something with you. In your post u wrote 'silverglue' do u mean 'silverglue' or superglue???

If u mean superglue then im assuming this is the same mod that we had to do to the old tbreds to unlock the multipliers.

If you did mean silverglue, what is this?? Ive nver come across silverglue be4.

Also there only seems to be MIU...0338's their on new pcb so I hope my friend takes a chance to try one of these out. But like i said i definatly need confirmation on what i discussed above.

thanxs

Any electricaly conductive glue should work fine. All you have to do is fill the laser pit between the two bridges with conductive stuff and it should unlock the rest of the cache.

Silverglue...not superglue.. MIUHB 0338 should do also great clocks I think...

Hi! Im gonna buy a new duron on monday, should i buy a 1.4 or a 1.6? Im thinking of selling my 1700+ so I can buy on of each....

It shouldnt matter if you can verify the steppings. Worse comes to worse and it sucks or you get a Applebred "A", unlock MP and the rest of the cache and sell it as a MP :D

Im gonna buy it in a local store so that wont be a problem... Guess Ill buy a 1.4 then...

Just buy the one with the best stepping.... there is no difference between 1400 and 1600....

There is only 1 thing you have to know....NEVER buy a MIUGA stepping. That is a Tbred A core.

MIXIB is the best stepping huh?

Don't know...but mine is :) I haven't seen anyone going faster than me with watercooling...

Cant wait until my 1.6 gets here in a couple weeks from newegg :D I guess I'll have to do the L11 voltage mod to give it the full 1.85v of my kr7a without vcore mod.. although I might just do the vcore mod, lol.
10-26-2003, 11:31 AM

Ok, then Ill get a MIXIB if I can ;). And I will get my watercooling this week to...

I'm actually giving up my AIUHB XP2100 for the 1.4 I'm testing now. The person who I'm building the computer for will be pleased he's getting the "better" CPU and I'm pleased this "sucky" Duron is cruising at 2.52GHz. ;)
