hipro5, how high did you have vagp set at P4C800-E del, at 1.95?
and what's the deal about vagp if using pci grapihic card, does it have any impact?

I work with 1.99Vagp all the time.......My VGA can handle it too, so I have no problem.......As for the PCI-E, I'll check that as soon as I have the mobo in my own hands...... :)Quote:

p.s and which graphic card could you recomend, for working in 80mhz freq and that high vagp, and pref for nvidia low cost, some GF2/4
Vagp feeds the Northbridge as well, that's why it does better when you raise it.........Nvidia cards do well with high AGP frequency......My ATI X800XT PE can handle 80MHz AGP and bench as well....... ;)
I can validate flashing a P4C800 Deluxe V2.0 with P4C800-E Deluxe bios, version 1024.001, http://support.asus.com/download/dow...800-E%20Deluxe, which I renamed p4c800e.rom, and used afudos 1.16b with switches to flash the bootblock.Quote:

This is my second Dothan build. First was using a P4C800E Deluxe, with a 1.86 Dothan. It's running 24/7 at 2425MHZ and 1.5 vcore with twin TCCD's. THis second one was built this morning, flashing a P4C800 Deluxe with the 1024 E version as described above. Running 209X11, PQI TCCD, and 1.5 vcore for 2300 mhz. THat's about it so far, just simple running the fsb up.
Both cpu's seem to be falling a bit short of my expectations. Any tricks I should be using, like a little vagp bump? Both builds are using the stock hsf's, the first has a faster 70MM fan on it though, and I did pick up a Zalman 7000alcu for some cooling goodness for the second one. I'll keep perusing these threads for some more tips, too. I plan on pulling the 1.6 out of my Inspiron 6000, swapping the 1.86 while I'm at it to see if that one scales any better.
These cpu's have amazing math power, but I don't hear too many people talk about memory bandwidth. Going to run a few Sandra benchies and compare it with my 3.2E and Lanparty 875. What sells me on the Dothans are it's low power consumption. My 3.2E and Lanparty 875 consume about 225 watts under load (which it is all the time, I'm a DC freak :cool: ) The Dothan/P4C800E combo uses a scant 88 watts on my watt meter! :banana:
Thanks for any insights anyone may have to get these puppies higher...

Mine just keeps getting worse and worse. It randomly resets and it's uptime each time it resets just keeps lowering till it doesn't even get into windows.
Might go check out how much a new CT479 is just incase mine is borked.

Did you try to up the CPU voltage by a notch or two? Or performed the vdroop mod?
The Asus MB does not keep the voltage stable enough for high stress OC'ing.
This is exactly the same problem I was having with mine, same mobo, same problem voltage, 1.295 or something. Even my DDR booster wouldn't go any higher than 2.6v. However, mine started acting up immediately after I plugged in a USB hard drive. All the USB went out, which I suspected blew the USB controller (pretty common with these boards from what I hear). After that happened it wouldn't take the overclock at all. It ran at stock speed for a while, then it stopped doing that alltogether. Couldn't even get a post at 400MHz fsb after a while.Quote:

1) My floppy connector was very loose, and
2) One of the prongs of the four-prong power connector going to the CT479 was jammed in, like one of the male prongs was :banana::banana::banana::banana:ed (npi) when I first plugged it in and pushed the female end going to the PSU in too far to make full contact. I'm not talking about the end that connects to the CT-479, but the end that plugs into the power connector coming from your PSU.
Either of these could have possibly caused a surge when I plugged in the USB device and probably shorted out the board. Just a few things you might want to check out.
It's fixed. I removed the HSF and CT479 and reseated everything.
Now running at 12*160 = 1920Mhz @ 1.6vCore {fluctuates between 1.58 to 1.6 going by CPU-Z.}
Wouldn't mind seeing how far it can go.

It doesn't seemt to want to go any higher. But already at this speed, it's way faster than my 1.8A @ 2.3G. I'm playing BF2 @ 1024*768 with med sound, EAX, low/med textures and 100% VD. Very happy. Will try vDroop and vDimm mods to see if I can't get some more out of this. I also thought my RAM was :banana::banana::banana::banana:, being TCC4, but it's holding up nice at 200 FSB DC 2.5-3-3-7 @ 2.85v. They aren't matched, and both had HS on them, so I don't even know if they are TCC4.
2.5-3-3-7 for TCC4???
geil value ram can do that! :eek:
2.5-2-2-5 should be easy for it,
or 2-3-3-6 if it doesnt mind cl2 ;)
omg banias at 200FSB!!! wtf???
lol yeh, it is pretty strange :confused:Quote:

I don't think the RAM modules are pairs. The lowest they want to go is 2.5-3-3-6. I'm happy with that. Wouldn't mind getting a bit more vCore into the Banias to see if I can't break 2G.Quote:

I also have some VX I was gonna run but heard that UTT can be tricky. Any tips/suggestions? Sorry if these topics have been covered, but I need info and cannot find it. Thanks.
Intel P4M 1.9GHz 512 400 PGA 478 OEM SL6FJ northwood
now,can anyone please tell me if i need a ct-479+asus mobo or i just slap the cpu on any p4/478 rig? thanks
you need an adapter and asus mobo combo :)
no he doesnt, his is not a pentium m, but a mobile p4, just put it in a normal mobo.
oh.... my fault... i saw it a bit strange, asking for P4 and it had M at the end and had that strange freq. 1.9Ghz...Quote:

Unless your going to do a voltage mod to your RAM or get a booster, it's pointless getting UTT as they really only shine above ~3v. IIRC, flashing the P4C800 BIOS onto your board and also flashing the bootblock {/pbnc /n} will give you multi and vCore options. Read first post in this thread to make sure please :) Don't really want to be responsible for a dead motherboard :)Quote:

I have looked at the first page and there is no mention of the p4p800e deluxe. I have searched 85-90% of this thread and and find no info on the p4p800e deluxe. I have also googled this subject with every form of a question I can muster. I can't see why the bios from the p4c800e deluxe wouldn't work since the 865 is almost the 875's twin, but I really don't want a dead mobo. Anyone else know/try this? Anyone know anywhere else to find any info on this topic?
To Bnc&skane:
Thank You, Both
It's in his sig... he has the booster. :)Quote:
