I agree. You might need some more voltage on your RAM. MY RAM ran at 2.7v even at 300mhz on 2 other boards but i need 2.75v for only 285mhz. I think my PSU undervolds the 3.3v rail a bit or it's the board that undervolts.
Maybe your sticks just need some more voltage even if the rail is at 3.3v.
Just tried OCCT. Good program. I like the graphs it puts out after you're finished.
Hi Everyone,
How do I keep the cpu voltage that Core Center adds without running core center everytime I start up windows?? The bios only allows me to push up to ~1.73volts but I need around 1.8v to see if I can push my 3800+ to 2.8ghz...
I've tried 1.41mod, 1.37mod bioses and when I try use the extra options (ie. +13%, +15%, etc) the bios doesn't save my settings and just reverts back to "By CPU VID"...
Thanks!
Have you tried lower voltages?
My 3500+ Winchester goes 1.6V~2800Mhz
with +28-30C water. :rolleyes:
Or try 1.36mod...it's the only bios that has working +13, 15, 18% over-volting options.
:rolleyes: 1.41mod works too, but not stable for my neo2, uh not 'not stable' actualy but something weird......
Anyone have experience with Mushkin LV2 XP3200 (TCCD)?
I have two 512MB sticks in my new rig.
How far should I be able to go with stock cooling?
Here is the rest of my setup:
Asus Vento Case
Aspire 550 watt PS
AMD 3000+ winnie
MSI K8N Neo2
2 WD Raptors Raid 0
Any help appreciated since I am new to this!
Thanks,
stock cooling? maybe 2.6-2.7GHz.....
Hello all, my board has been fine up till now, ive just got some twinmos speed premium and have been burning away around 245-250mhz fsb 1:1, but when i try a 166 devider to regain my cou overclock i cant boot over 260fsb (and yes i dropped my ht multi) i can boot with the fsb at 250 and the mem at 214ish but anything hisger and no post. do you lot think that it is my board (1.36b bios) or my mem controler (everybody loves CBBID :( ) i have a suspecious feeling that its the latter not liking 2225 timings with a good clock (i used to run 2.55ghz all day and night)
1.36b works! :toast:Quote:

PC ICE did it first, but he never gave results (maybe his board didnt have the caps on as badly as mine from the start) ;)

oh thats just great, maby if i use cas2.5 a la tccd that would help, just goning to check now
update: cas 2.5 allowed me to boot at 260, 265 was no go, still not high enough to justify the lower mem speed.

I have tried all the BIOSs that are out there, different sticks, different CPU´s and been messing around with A64 Tweaker for god knows how many hours.
I even bought a second mobo, but im stuck at 215-220 on RAM with divider.
Pretty anoying when you have got a ClawCastle that does 3.2Ghz, but the 11 multi needs a 186Mhz divider.
Both my Neo2´s are Korea batch, and I get the feeling it has got something to do with it. Everybody I know with the Neo2 has got Taiwan or China, and neither of them has had this problem.
If you find out anything, please post here :)
I have an AGP card I want to play with, but my DFI wont do there im afraid.
well it looks like 2.2ghz for me for a whyle then, who said the neo2 plat was a good clocker, oh well you win some you loose some, its all down to luck at the end of the day and i dont seem to have much.
can someone tell me how to know that? (korea or whatever) thank you :)Quote:

haven't posted or been here in awhile but if I remember correctly the info is underneath the nb fan on the nb chip
yes okay, but how do we know the version? I haven't look it but I guess it just codes? hmmm what about in the box? can we find it there? :P

What's the best bios version for AMD Venice?? Any idea? :stick:
Hello everybody
I got a neo 2 platinum today with a 3700+ san diego was a little worried that the cpu wouldnt post but it posted fine :D .
The motherboard came flashed with bios 1.4 official and it detects the cpu and cpu speed just fine and is labeled correctly as a 3700+ :banana:
the ram will only run at 2cmd though and the option to switch it doesnt show in bios. I read about this in another thread regarding the san diego and im going to try other bios files later to fix it.
Regards
3700+ san diego
2x 512mb ballistix 4000
all in wonder 9800 pro
you have a link for that biosQuote:

First of all, flash to 1.6v BIOS because it gives you accurate temp. readings which is important to watch when your on stock cooling. Neo2 allows 2.85v (overvolts to ~2.90) on Ram. Set HTT to 4X and try reach at least 230 fsb with 2.85v option. This should give your winnie 2.07ghz. You can go safely till 2.5ghz+ on stock. I think your sticks are bh-5, so I suggest doing vdrr mod (3.3v volt mod) to give your sticks 3.3v, which is safe for bh-5. Small fan blowing at them wouldn't hurt. Read the whole first post, oc for some time and tell us your resultsQuote:

Thanks for the help.
I think the RAM that I have is what you guys call TCCP.
Should that make a difference?
