Yeah, come on ASUS!!!
P4C800 needs better BIOS, too.

Ok i see that Dothan overclock nice. But how is it's life performance in gaming. I heard that FPS is not stable could fluctuate 40 -50 fps. Also is it stable and bug free?
Does anyone actualy gamed with this cpu? Please share your experience with games you play on CT-479 :D
well i played the demo of "area 51" on it with a 6800u the monitor limited my res since its a 15" 1024x786. the game was really smooth, i havent had the chance to use the 6600gt yet in the rig. the 6800u is on loan to me from a friend. its really quick with that game... havent had the chance to play anyothers just set waiting for new case and psu.Quote:

I have noticed the lack of hyperthreading at times. One area that really lags is opening those damned pdfs and spawning Reader. :upset:Quote:

Yes i agree the 2.8 with HT is a smoother but everything i do day to day to either quicker or the same.
I use a program called videoredo to edit add breaks from mpeg2 recording of my sagetv box and it's no differant to the p4. also dvdlab (dvd auth software) runs the same.
I tested doom 3 1280-1024 high q time demo1 90f/s, mid q 100f/s halo runs at about 100fsb live for speed never drops below 70fsb no matter how many cars and need for speed underground 2 with everything on is minimum 60f/s.
Just waiting for some geil ultra platinum pc4000 so i can run memory at 1:1 as my crappy twinmos sp 3500 died on me and i dont like using the ddr booster. Running at cl2.5 will lower performance a little but higher bus speed will make up for it.
I still cant explain why i cant run at 11x233 any more same cooling , i have vid 4 and 2 for 1.64 vcore but my board shows 1.568-1.6v and get lockups / resets at 232. I could run at 235 when i first used this m730 and had vid 4,1 and 0 for 1.62v.
The only thing differant is i am using a 6800gt instead of a 6600gt could is be a power issue. I am going to run 2 psu's one for the mobo-ct-479 and one for everything else see what that does.

My psu is a antec truepower 430. it is happy with a p4 2.8c at 3.7 4x120mm fans on 2x 120.2 rads ,mcp650 5x hdd and dvd-rw so it should be ok with just a mobo, dothan, 6800gt and 1 hdd.
I could do another run but at the moment i have fsb at 230 and ram at 186 -2-2-2-5 so it's going to be lower than before anyway. I should get the new geil pc4000 tuesday so will give it another go then.
at 2.8 with 6800gt stock i scored 28k with 6800gt at 400/1100 almost 30k and 6800gt at 410/1150 just over 30k.

did you use any voltage increment?

what is vdroop?
mod on the board to stop the voltage going all over the place.Quote:

Well if your CPU is a FSB400, there you might have the explanation; they don't clock as high as their 533 counterparts :(
150x16 is 2400MHz BTW, which is okay without Vmods and the like, or is it 151x10 you are trying?
Its now ok. I set up pciex from 100 to 110 and now 2520mhz
730 arrived thismorning, hopefully it'll turn out better than the 715...
Running Pi (passed all tests so far, on 8mb now) 213*12 on 1.4v which doesnt seem too bad. Much better than the 1.5v it took the 715 to get to 2.4ghz.
Seem to have freezes at anything over ~ 213 though, have a feeling its the POS memory, need to get the TCCD in it later and test more.
Not bad for starters though.... :D
What about changing the divider to 3:2 to see if your memory is holding you back? :)
Done that already (all latest BIOS):Quote:

I tried forcing my 400FSB to 533 by doing BSEL 0 to VSS to force BSEL 0 L(Low), I think that was correct, but it's been a long time since I've bothered with wiretricking FSBs LOL. (pic)

Anyway it made no difference whatsoever. But maybe it should have been BSEL 1 to BSEL 0 to force Low? I though VSS was the same result.
(Whoops, posted this in the wrong thread LOL, nevermind eh?)

hello guys.. i just gut:
1.asus p4c800e-deluxe (droop mod)
2.asus ct479
3.dothan 740
4.vapochil xe
5.crosair xms 512x2 pc4400
and i have aLOT of problem!!
1. i do the u-wire 10 tims to get 1.660v and it didnt work. in the bios i see only 1.584! which vid i need to conect and with what?
2. my dothan temp are -25c' and i cant boot at 200/201 fsb only 195 no more!! even with clockgen if i goo one mhz above 2590mhz my computer is stop moving!! :confused: why is that??
3. i see here many guys that post at 200/201 fsb with the same thing (740+p4c800e-delouxe) what i need to do to pass this problem?
thanks :clap:
1. It won't be reported correctly in CPU-Z or the BIOS; as far as I know it won't be reported at all. You'll just have to ground it correctly and it'll be running at 1.660v.Quote:
