Yes default FSB is 200. 266 works fine though, so why would the pinmod help? What about this FSB strap thing. I see 133, 200 and 266. I've put it on 266.
EDIT : which pins to mod?

EDIT : which pins to mod?
search for e4300 pinmod to 266fsb...there are threads here...i'll ask DFI if they can mod a bios to prevent these artificially low walls when running 200fsb cpus...bios updates can fix this...but pinmods have done so too on other boards with 200fsb cpus
damn, just can't get it to be stable much past 500fsb.
Going from 500fsb which I barely got stable but is now stable as a rock, trying for 515fsb, it has a hell of a time even posting, nevermind finishing it. Oh boy..
whats the max fsb you have seen on that cpu on other boards ziddey?
hmm haven't really tested although I have tested 3.6ghz with 8x450.Quote:

you can find it on DFI's site.Quote:

any ideas to get it passed 450 at 8.the board will go past 450 with lower multi.so it most probley the chips max.

was wondering if you guys are pluggin in the little 4 pin floppy connector on the board above the top most pci slot that says 5v/12v
you know liek on the ultra-d's?

thanks I figured as much but I thought I would ask.
Try my bios settings a few posts back. Our rams may be somewhat similar. I really don't think you need to adjust your GTl, auto should be fine. My memory settings may be a bit tight so try 4-4-4-12-3-21-2-11-10-2-8-6-6-5-5-3Quote:

One thing I noticed is that the mosfets are staying decently cool even under load :)
ziddey - are you running stock vNB...if not try it...also try remove mobo plug from the board if you use it...both vNB and the plug can affect fsb walls...
so test from stock vNB to higher with and without the plug.
watch how max fsb changes and go from there.
mobo plug? the floppy? I've tried both having that in and out. It's currently not plugged in. Also, I've tried vnb from 1.25 up to 1.45v. I use 1.35vnb at 500fsb just so that it'll not lock up at post half the time.
Just curious, what "mobo plug" are you refering too?Quote:

the heat transfer seems fine as the HS gets hot....
I don't read all the thread, but anyone has problems with the 2:3 memory ratio?
I can't get past 590 MHz with my memory at boot...
My ram is Crucial Ballistix Tracer Pc667 C3, that can do 550 MHz stable with 2,375 Volt (4-4-4-12 fast/fast) without problems...
I know that with my RAM, I can't set Enhance Addressing to FAST and get much higher than 400FSB. Once I set it to AUTO I'm able to go much higher. So far I'm stable at 515 and currently testing 522.
hmm what if you put a fan on the heatsink? temps come back down?Quote:

the layer I placed full covers the chip and is thick enough to cover the marking...the amount of TIM on this NB was nothing like the RD600 but it was like gum paste...literally sounded like I was tearing something when i remove the HSQuote:

Mind there is heat transfer occuring as the HS get hot...again this is at stock voltage
a good bit on the nb is what you need had the same prob.
