well here is mine from sig...

p4c800edlx, 4x bh5, 200w pelt + 11c water, vcore 1.7v, vagp 1.93v
hoped to tweak it under 24sec, but one bh5 stick mysteriously died.
is 3.4v 24/7 too high?

Well I haven't done any intense gaming on it (10*181 isn't very fast)Quote:

173*15 is rock stable though - it's what I run 24/7 at.
with a bit of tweaking I managed to get under 28 seconds for the 1m run.. Nothing great compared to some but it's nice to break these little barriers ;)
not ultra quick ...
but at 1.4v in bios ....
heh i can make 2.6GHz with 1.196V in the bioss but at 1.212V (next one up) I get around 2.2GHz :P
Did some 3DMark2001 today with my fellow 730 on air:
Spec's:
Dothan 730 @ 2794MHz (310x9 5:4) (vcore=1.62v real) aircooled
Mushkin 2x256MB BH-5 @ 248MHz (vdimm=3.4v real)
Asus P4C800 vdroop, vcore, vdimm.
Sapphire X800XTPE @ 520/560 (stock)

click for compare
...and some SuperPi at the same speed:

I'm having some weird problems with my Dothan on an P4P800-SE. I can't boot at anything over 225fsb and in windows I can't go much higher than 230mhz because the screen freezes if I go higher. I keep the RAM below 200mhz all the time . I've tried both tha 400fsb and 533fsb jumper but they gave me the same results. I have a Dothan 740 by the way.
The board shouldn't be the problem because I ran my P4 at 14*245mhz, this was at the bios that came with the board however.
Another weird problem I'm facing is that I can run Prime for hours at 2.6ghz 1.42v real but windows is not really stable at this speed. Another weird thing is that if for example a speed is prime stable then if you up the fsb by only 1 mhz it can't even boot anymore.
Should I try an older bios? I'm now using 1009.004 beta or something like that. Atleast it has a 9 and a 4 in the name. Are other people having the same issues that I have with this bios?
Please help me, I have tried everything that I could think of and I just can't believe that this Dothan can't do a high fsb.
whats all thise REAL vcore now??? :P
my VID5 is always 0 (grounded) so anything from 0.7V in the bios to `1.196V I get 1.212V to 1.71V
For me real voltage is measured directly on the motherboard and not the readout that CPU-z or MBM gives you.Quote:

My Dothan 730 (same board..P4P800 SE) maxes out at 2600Hhz.. regardless of MP (10x260, 11x235, 12x218).
At present I accept this fact until I've tried another combo.. or I can afford another Dothan.. :)
Yes I have tried all multipliers from 6 to 13 and I still can't boot over 225mhz. I don't care that my Dothan can do "only" 2.6ghz, I'm happy with that actually. Just the fact that I can't boot or run above a certain fsb is freaking annoying. And ofcourse it sucks that I can't bench even a few mhz above a 24/7 stable speed.
I bought much BH-UTT and a DDR booster for handpicking some nice sticks for high 2-2-2-5 action but now I can't and it really, really sucks. I will try with the 4:5 divider (fsb:mem) to see how that works but I really want to run 1:1. Default multiplier is 13 by the way.
I'm going to try another bios now.
What bios are you using?

I've got a replacement coming soon, hopefully it wont have a fsb wall issue, but if it does, I'm going to take a hard look at my adapter and possibly replace it.
This seems to be the case with Dothan... you "hit a wall" at a certain clock.. regardless of MP.. At one clock (ie. 2610Mhz) it runs Prime95 24/7.. at 2620 it just freezes..Quote:

Currently I'm running on Bios 1008 as 1009.004 gave very little extra gain.. A little higher max. VCore (1.6 instead of 1.575) and of course the ability to change the VCore downwards.. and to change MP.. As long I'm only interested in max.clock.. and we have the tools to finetune in Windows I do not see the point/benefit of running this Beta-Bios..
I saw the discussion somewhere about the fact whether old skool BH5 is/isn't the same as the BH-UTT.Quote:

You said they are completely the same.
Maybe this is also an example that this combo doesn't perform well :D
Put some "old skool" BH stickies and prove you are right :)
I'm currently buring my sticks in at 250mhz 2-2-2-5 using the 4:5 divider and it works like a charm.
I have a feeling that the 1009004 betal bios first sets the fsb and then adjusts the multiplier downwards. I can do 10*245mhz from windows now but I can't boot past 225mhz and this is annoying because I just want to memtest 1:1.
I think I'm going to get another 1 or 2 Dothans and see how it goes. I just can't believe the Dothan is the problem because it CAN run at already a much higher fsb in windows than it can boot at.
It's the bios alright.Quote:

If u want to do memtest on 250+, just use the DDR500 (=4:5 right?) divider on 200fsb+.
That's how I do it.
What bios do you mean? I'm using the latest 004 beta. Did you use the 003 beta for 245mhz fsb? Or the 1008 final?
003 betaQuote:

........................ I just bought 3 :banana:
I'm 16 years old and I'm a really, really sick person :fact:

here u go guys,
Thanks, I got it e-mailed already but you should keep it hosted for if other people are having the same problem as me.
I'm going to try the 003 beta now. You'll hear from me within an hour or so.
good its on there for our use :D
use it all u alike.
If u have any other files u want me to host ie
BIOS files. then let me know via PM.
