I've tried 3* HTT multi as you sugested. And it rocks. Now board goes up to 237MHz, at 1:1 RAM:FSB and RAM timings at 2-3-3-7@ 2.7V. Obviously my TwinMOS Twisters are holding me back. But that's just because voltage on them is so low.
Unfortunately the board is not mine, I'am testing it for big A64 S754 board roundup. And I'am not allowed to do any mods on the boards.
This board rocks. It overclocks better than any other board on test. Except Gigabyte K8NS Pro wich is also very good overclocker, but the same CPU overclocked 30MHz better on Asus than on Gigabyte. FSB on Gigabyte also tops at 237MHz at same settings as on asus.
I also have some other boards, like Epox 8KDA3+, 8HDA5+, Asus K8V and one crappy Asrock K8S8X.
But they all suck compared to asus and gigabyte.
Today new I'll get next package of boards to test, I think MSI and Abit will be in package... :D
Will let you know.
I wouldnt say that it overclocks the best. try lowering the multipliers to about 6 and raising fsb and see how far your mobo will go. Also lower your memory to 166mhz 5:4 and push taht fsb. It looks like your ram is holding you back. You'll never test that mobo to its full potential untill you up your fsb as far as it goes. You just started testing that mobo.... You got long way to go.
Tested :D
Asus runs at 255 like a charm :D
But bandwith sux because of 5:4 divider...
Unfortunately I don't have time to test Gigabyte again because I have to return it tomorow morning.
Thanks milan03
Hi
Ohhh SmokeyTheBandit, dont keep us in suspense put up the pics of the mod :) and some results after.
Menty
It does compared to chantech vnf3-250 :PQuote:

Extra 50mhz is nothing to joke about. (that is even before my as5 to cure in :P)
You're welcome, TribesMan
Pics on vmod yet? :P Would appreciate vmem point as well as this mobo doesn't display it on bios... (Reading off the booster is pITA as I have to take one of memory out).
Just ordered 1 today, after another epox goes up in smoke my second board in a month.
Speaking to supplier seems like the voltage stability ant the only thing wrong with it. Hope this gives me more stable O/C. Ordered some ballistix so low vdimm shouldnt be a problem......fingers crossed;)
well, got mine yesterday with a A64 3000. So far at 250 x10. But memory isnt doing so well. for those who are running a decently high HTT:mem ratio, what slot(s) are you using. Im in 1 & 3 now and have to drop to a 2:1 ratio to get above 2.4Ghz. maybe i just have stupid ram though.
Slot 1 and 2. Using Modified DDR booster on slot 3 running 245x10 2.5-2-2-10.
Modified ? as in changing the components to the other side of PCB ?Quote:

I was following this thread for a while waiting for the Vmod pics but nothing showed up....
So I decided to go ahead.
For all of you waiting for the Vdimm mod

Maximum HTT is 285 on my K8N-e. The VLDT mod didn't help. It seems to be a bios issue, but I'm not sure
Fellow members following this thread with great interest. Been out of the loop for awhile but looking to purchase a K8N-E/3700+ combo. Which memory will suite the board better the new Crucial Balisitic or the OCZ 3700EB? Thanks
OCZ 3700EBQuote:

Since you have been out of the loop for a wjile. Have you heard about the DFI LANPartyUT? Read the sticky at the OCing forum.
Sure have. I've had dfi nf2 boards in the past. While the OCing features were rich the undervolting(what board doesn't)made it depressing.Quote:

I haven't played with a Asus board for sometime. This new setup is strictly for gaming and surfing. I like the fact the 3700+ is yeilding good OC's. I would think 2.6-2.7 will be easy with my WWB.
Does the OCZ booster work with the K8N?
yes and no... :PQuote:

It works but can't use slot 2... :P (so 1 DIMM)
You can unsolder few components, etc of booster and move it to back of PCB to make it work. or wait for HiPro's stuff :P
I wrote to tech support @ ASUS asking for more volts (at least 2.8 and 2.9 hopefully). The guy said that he will pass my request to R&D.
Seriously guys - ALL write and say that you have memory for which 2.8V is STOCK! Maybe they'll move their butts and give us 2.9.
If they can also reimplant the Vcore back to a 1.85 V max that would be great.Quote:

I got the board running with prom guys :)
Capable of posten into windows @ 3100 Mhz @ 1.7V :D :banana:
Its only pifast stable at 2950 @ 1.7V wich is also realy nice :D :)
My vcore mod works howeever it makes the board very unstable so i cut the wire.
Will look into that tonight though because this will be a 3 Ghz + 1.85 V combination :D
How did you get the ram working at 210 only with HTT at 268 ??? Which HTT multiplier did you use ?
RAM @ 333 dividerQuote:

LDT @ 3X
Somehow it doesnt realy like my 2 BH-5 Sticks ..... :mad:
Wow nice clocks on that CPU! If only I mail, they won't bother changing :stick: Everyone email them :toast:
Sorry about that. I let it up to Smokey to post the pics since he sort of discovered the mod. But he had troubles getting the pics from his hdd's :(Quote:

Have you had any luck with the vcore mod. The ADP3166 is controlling Vcore and pin 8 is used as feedback pin, but according to Smokey that gives some instability, while it's the same chip used on the K8V and maybe other asus k8 boards too, but I'm not sure about that.
Well i stole a pic of the k8v mod wich is the same as far as i can see.
I soldered a 10k pot to the resistor with the red dot.
It has to be soldered to the blue dot though ..... :stick:
If someone can test this :toast:
