Official Epox 8RDA+ BIOS with up to 250MHz FSB

I cant speak for anyone else, but I go with stock speeds, and nothing running.

You mean doing the flash from within Windows? Always a good idea!:)

Well I guess I should post this here............ I did one 59.33 , but I cant seem to find the screenshot grrrrrrrr.... I won't update until I find it. So far this is my best.......... I need a new better cooling to run higher vcore.........





Not bad, but not where it could be with better cooling.............

I thought the 48.xx was the time everyone was interested in???

Dunno bout that bro..... heheheh
Well I ran it again........

My personal best so far. finally broke 59... woooooohooooooo
223x11 2453 , 2-2-5-2 timings.

That's the 3rd fastest Pifast for AMDs and 9th best overall ahead of a 3.58ghz P4 :) What speed was that at and timings? My guess is with a faster clock speed you could easily be #1 AMD, as the other two are only @ 211FSB.

;)

The speed and timings are underneath the pic. And of course it's faster than a 3.58 P$ ( ooooops I meant 4 ... heheh ), If AMD could ramp up a little faster I believe they would take the crown np....... just getting the chips made and out to the public.

does this bios unlock the multipliers on the mobo?

Well the board will unlock certain multis according to your default multi on the chip. like 5-12.5 , or 13 up. Not both as far as I know. There is a thread on here about the whole issue.

Sorry I skipped right over the picture :p Well you're about 200mhz and 300mhz below the other two AMD scores and right up there. Is there no way to get a higher clock speed, that ought to do it for you.

This 8RDA+ has been great so far, just been a little disappointed that the Vmem only goes to 2.9v and th emod for it is like the mod for the BD7II. Apart from that and the multi unlocks, it's wonderful.

If you can slap a close up pic of the surrounding memory area, we can try some hit & miss troubleshooting technique to see if we can find that IC.

First, get your DVM lead on those Mosfet legs surrounding the dimm area to see which one is delivering the actual Vmem. The IC should then be in the general area of that Mosfet. If you can read the name on the IC, we can hunt for the PDF data file.

My camera is currently with another member of these boards unfortunately unless I would have huge pics up now to find the right IC. However I will use my multimeter to check the mosfets...It's usually the middle pin on them right, and then a ground?

I did ask DDTung about this and he replied -
"REfer to the BD7II Vmem mod. This board uses a similar Winbond chip(with 4 extra pins) but the Vmod is still using the STR1sense pin."

Now I'm not too familiar with that, perhaps someone else is? Either way it sounds difficult like the BD7II mod.

I've always found one of the 2 outer legs will give you the actual Vmem reading. Try all legs to see what readings you get.

Ace I have my waterpump and shi* in there, hard for me to move around much never mind take a few real good pics....... maybe someone else will though...................:D :D

Cmon guys someone????????????? Fookin nightmare in my rig.

Been trying some more stuff here and got my best Sandra mem so far pretty niice for an amd system:

I cant seem to publish sh*t on the onion... twice now I've tried. wtf is up with that guys.. anyone here ever have that happen?
