paul007 I think he mean 1.7v is the max on the board...so `stock` as in with no Vmod (yet).
ahh gotcha :)
Yeh sorry ... I meant without a VCore mod yet ... my bad.
I didnt write mine down
but it is an A64 3000+
stable at 10*251 1.7v

Here is some data on A64 RAM dividers w/ different CPU multiplier settings:
By Morkai of Muropaketti.com:
Interesting Sandra mem bench numbers I'd say.Quote:
4x250Mhz 2900/2900MB/s
4.5x250Mhz 3280/3240
5x250Mhz 3645/3600
5.5x250Mhz 3566/3530
6x250Mhz 3891/3850
6.5x250Mhz 3600/3600
7x250Mhz 3880/3880
7.5x250Mhz 3620/3620
8x250Mhz 3860/3860
8.5x250Mhz 3635/3635
9x250Mhz 3860/3860
9.5x250Mhz 3685/3685
10x250Mhz 3880/3880
As you know the RAM speed is divided from overall CPU MHz and not from FSB speed on A64 systems. So for example at 2500MHz with 10x multiplier the RAM speed is 2500/10=250MHz.
The thing here is that running w/ x.5 multiplier (9.5 for example) makes no sense at all. The RAM divider wont change when you adjust multiplier from 10x to 9.5x and so the performance will be the same if CPU speed remains the same. So 250x10=2500MHz (RAM at 2500/10 = 250MHz) is just as fast as 9.5x263=2500MHz (RAM at 2500/10 = 250MHz).
CPU-Z will report that that the RAM speed goes up (from 250 to 263) when you go from 10x250 to 9.5x263 but as you can see from the Sandra MEM scores the perfromance wont go up (9x250Mhz=3860/3860, 9.5x250Mhz=3685/3685, 10x250Mhz=3880/3880). Obviously the CPU-Z is not reporting the RAM speed properly when '1:1' mode is used w/ x.5 CPU multiplier.
So every highspeed RAM OC shot posted w/ x.5 CPU multiplier is false as the RAM is not running in true 1:1 mode w/ x.5 multiplier.
The 4x multiplier is yet another thing here too. If you check the numbers I quoted there it seems that CPU/5 is the lowest ram divider the A64 supports. So '381x4 1:1' does not mean that the RAM is running at DDR762. It seems that its actually running at 304MHz (1524MHz/5).
Do any of you guys know how i can change my multiplier??
Get a program called Clock Gen (www.cpuid.com) and u change the multi in windows.Quote:

Do you think it's the same thing on FX-51?
I now have the Corsair ER3500 they can do FSB 250-260 depending on the cas timings.
I run some SuperPi M32: 250 x 12.5 = 3125 the time was only a few sek better than 240 x 13 = 3120.
Timings was 2-6-2-2 :confused:
Recording to you, then 12 x 255 = 3060 is to slow, and 12 x 260 = 3120 must have slow timings. None of them is better than 13 x 240 cas 2-6-2-2. Right?
I might go 13 x 3120 cas 2-5-2-2 that will be the best...
Still waiting on my new Cascade, have made some change it will be a killer :D sub -120 C on load. The "old" one then going on the GPU. Have serius condensation problem on the ATI XT some of the small resistans almost korrode..
Well, i already have that program, but when i'm try to change the multiplier, my computer freeze... ?Quote:

ahhh, right
279 : 10 x 9.5 = 265
thats #%&#$§% :mad:
So if, for example, my cpu is running at 9.5 x 260, and ram is set at 1:1 in bios, the ram is running at only 247 MHz ?Quote:

"9" greenie
This chip is about 10c warmer than my last one.. its a weird chip. The differece between load and idle-temp is ~1.5c :confused:
First i thought it was the sensor.. but when I gave it a try in my Vapo PE I saw the same.. the evaporator-temp idle is -17c and load -15c.
Look at the cpu-temp.. I almost feel sorry for my PE.
http://privat.bluezone.no/forman/images/superpi-33.GIF
Sometime in the near future i plan to 404mod my PE.. not sure it will work out tho.. the BD50F´s doesn´t like 404 very much.
I know this is a bit off topic but anyone can with a K8NPRO (with F11 bios) tell me what you see under Cpu-Z`s `Mainboard` tab. Where it says `Bios version` do you see F7 or F11? Just not sure my system is `reading` my flashed bios (although in the boot screen it shows F11).
same thing with Cole's board andy. it's not you its common.
Very interessting find Macci, or should i say Morkai :DQuote:

Sorry, a bit off topic.... :rolleyes:
As I recently got my 3000+ and AN50R, I think it is time for some overclocking of this CPU...
It is a CAAOC XPMW (don't remember the 4 digits before XPMW, but can tell you tomorrow)...
If I then try and OC, doesn't matter if it is 50Mhz or 200Mhz, SuperPi gives me an "NOT_EXACT_IN_ROUND" fail.. :confused:
I am currious to know what to do about it.....!
Ohh yeah, VERY usefull information you found the Macci..!
Mmmm thought so. Something weird is going on here. Using version 1.21 it shows F7 as my bios. Possible that the second bios is taking over from the flashed original F11 one? Anyone else have this?
Matshui this is your CPU or your mem failing. Try upping voltage on CPU first and see if it helps. If not it`s probably mem so up voltage there or raise timings to higher values.
Matshui - andy's advice is good. it is unlikely that you caaoc xpmw is failing even with stock volts. the mushkin on the other hand could easily need more volts. sometimes it wont even do rated timings until vdimm is at 2.8volts
I have tried upping voltage on CPU, so I will then try my memory...
Just didn't think about it coulb be them, as they are underclocket, but I have experienced many weird things with my new hardware, so why not..!
Yeah these A64 motherboards are rather strange.
Are you dividing your memory at all? I`ve hear ppl with Mushkin`s like yours up voltage to 2.8 - 3.1v and all is fine. Seem to like voltage even at stock on these boards.
Now I think, how can I be such an idiot not to have noticed my memory only got 2,6v....
Yeah, those Mushkin love voltage, even at stock as you say, atleast they did on my old nForce2 board, they did run much better when I gave them 2,9v instead of 2,8v, only running at 217, but they clocked as hell (my CPU couldn't follow...)!
But thanks for the help, I just tried giving them 2,9v, my comp turned off while updating BIOS... :eek:
But a click on the Clear CMOS button, and it did run again... :D
definitely your ram. Try up your voltage.Quote:

It was my memory voltage causing problems, now giving them 2,9v and currently at 223x10 3xLDT stock voltage....
I think we will see more to this CPU, when my watercooling arrives.. :D
EDIT: How much does memory timings do on the Shuttle board, I am thinking about running mine at cas2,5 insteed of cas2, or should I just lower my timings from 2-2-2-6 to 2-x-x-x...?

I have the same problem and it's killing me! So i would be glad if someone could tell me what to do ?
I don't know about you guys...
But my Shuttle AN50R v1.3 is VModded to give me 3.42V VDimm on "AUTO"
But I can only run 2.5-2-2-5-12-16 at tightest...
If I try to run 2-2-2-X I get BSOD...
I've run my KHX3000 2X 256 (BH-5) @ 285 FSB 1:1 @ 3.6V so I know the sticks are capable of running high FSB's but I don't understand why my sticks won't run CAS 2 at all..
BTW My KHX3000 are single sided, not double sided.
A64'uSER, try upping your voltage, either on the CPU or the memory, it helped me....
BTW, what is a good for BH-5 memory at 2,9v, it seems like mine is maxing out at ~233Mhz 2-2-2-6...
It's only bugging me when i'm overclocks my cpu...
man thats wierd i can run 2 cas and im using some older rev el-3700 dimms? im even using the 512 sticks and they are double sided as well. i thought that the double sided memory was a no go in these systems? i gues its like everything else when ocing "its just luck of the draw" and "what works for one may not for the other"!! oh hey what is "safe" for my memory voltage and v-core ect on these systems? i run the an50r and just dont want to wind up with the paper weight!?!? can you guys tell me what is safe for these settings? also whats the LDT do? if i set it lower does it run faster or is it higher that i need to set it? sorry for the noob questions but in the case of this new 64 system im afraid that i am a nOOB :p:Quote:

thx perc,
okay... i've maxed my chip out...
2.6 ghz @ 1.8 volts...
was hoping to hit the 2.7 ghz mark ... i tried up to 1.9 volts @ 2.65 and it errored in prime...
so what's next? a new chip? r404 mod? :)
Hideo has a new 3400+
in air cooling :

11x224MHz for SUPERPI
CG core stepping? I dont know
more info, soon
Got my new A64 3400+ still boxed -- waiting for Mach2 lianli mod kit and pc65 to get here...hate the goddam ups -- screwed me big time with their delays
any ideas how well will this do:
CAAOC 0352 TPMW
sound like a winner to me Phyrox. i had a similar chip but it was the 3000+ and xpmw and it did 2.5ghz on air benchable. you have a 200mhz headstart on that chip so expect great things
I also got a new one :D
My first move: 2500MHz @1.66v with Asetekkie

asetekkie as in waterchill, correct?
yes, KT12-L20 with Airplex EVO 240 and 2x SUNON 120mmQuote:

anybody find core cg core?
Wee, i just got my new Power supply, Antec Trueblue 480w, and now i could make a stable clock of my cpu. 10x230 - 1.65vcore. Is'nt that okay? I have'nt tried higher, but i'm sure that it can go 2400MHZ :P

K8N Pro, havent done any testing or anything, just "hay, it works"
http://www.ocfaq.com/files/0310_supa642200.gif
Any one have a link to a thread with K8N pro tweaking info? looking for info on exactly what all of the voltages are, as well as how the hell to gain access to more advanced functions such as memory timings
edit: Note the CG.. anyone else got one of these? seeing pretty much all C0s in the thread
waouhhhhhhh a CG core !!!!! :banana:
you are very lucky !!!!!
what is the stepp ?????????

But i'm excited to get up tomorrow
don't touch the vcore ;) just fsb and hit the max stable at default voltage.
to hit max fsb put the LDT to 2,5X max about 290
LDT 2X max 330

YOUR VCORE IS WAY TO HIGH.
Try to reach max stable with Standard Vcore dude.
Set LDT@2.5x and play :)
damnz, I have a CAATC 0404, newer week than yours but one core revision older :p:
+1 too kakaroto
where do you buy your cg core?
I didn't, I run a tech site and review hardware. AMD sent it to me. :DQuote:
Originally posted by neo.life

vcore is back down to stock now, trying out 210x10. Passed prime for 4 hours then crapped out... only other thing I changed was memory voltage +.1, might need more. Before I go further I want to work with the memory timing more. The comp refuses to load windows with any of the manual settings i've tried so far ( 6-2-2-2 7-3-3-2 11-2-2-2 ). When I was trying to get 7-3-3-2 working I thought it might be the tREF so I had it on 2x3120, 1x3120 1x1554 4x2??? 128... Once I get that locked down I'll toy with speeds more. Time to go look up the vmem mod and such.... my 1GB BH5 is hungry :)
edit: kakaroto, something else you might want to know is that my CPU is brown, not a green like yours.
edit2: have a look http://www.ocfaq.com/files/0304_IMG_0770.jpg
put the LDT to 2,5X
Desynch the ram AUTO to 150 or 166 , at default timings.
stock vcore.
and pump up the FSB with clockgen , i think 240 fsb is possible with a cg core at stock voltage , and try with LDT 2X.
the gigabyte mobo don't boot with +230 FSB.
Try with clockgen for NF3 !!!!

Ok i understand , but we want to know if the CG core is better than C0 at stock voltage.
Timings are not important for this test.
you can't hit 2400 mhz at 1,5v ? :(

My 3000+ hits 2.3Ghz with 1.5v stable.
It doesnt look like its going to hit 2400 with just 1.5. Actually I havent managed to get it to hit 2400 with any amount yet ;) For some reason it just craps out at that speed, even if the memory is throttled back and vcore upped.
But anyway,
LDT @ 2.5
v@1.5
memory 6:5 8-4-4-2.5
max 230x10
havent stability tested it yet
cg core is not fabulous :/
You haven't got ch5 ddr for test with this?
We're talking the hyped up CG core here, it's supposed to be far better than the core's that are on the shelfs right now.Quote:

My 3000+ hits 2.3Ghz with 1.5v stable.
The mem controller is supposed to be more tolerant with the sort of RAM used.
Send it over to me, i'll test it for you. :D
Supaman , do you use clockgen , if you don't , you can't hit high FSB.
my K8NPRO don't boot when FSB>230 in bios , by clockgen i can hit<330 FSB.
May be PCI bus getting to high thats messing with my OC... I use an m-audio revolution. I doubt its as high PCI speed friendly as the SB or onboard cards people are using.
Yes it suppost to be better, its needs lass Vcore at low speed.Quote:

But we have to wait and see what supeman do with his CG.
I only say that 2.4GHz with stock is a very very good OC. even for a CG.
Here another try with my 3000+ on crappie asetek.
http://kakaroto.ntonline.nl/A64_3000/Pifast_2.62GHz.PNG
good :)
fine for your cooling ,you ve got a good chip kakaroto !
;)
what's new supaman?
what frequency did you hit finally?
yes pleazzz
...
.....and supaman never go back :(
I have been playing with it, at 1.5V the max stable is 2.2GHz. Even there it isnt stable in prime, but I havent been able to crash it there yet. I am currently testing out 2.3GHz at 1.65V...
One thing I can say for certain is that without more vcore (mobo max 1.7V) the chip absolutely will not stabilize at 2.4GHz. even if the RAM is at 185MHz and the LDT at 1x.... 2.4 is a no go for sure, unless I am missing some key setting... and I believe i've toyed with them all
show us some sandra bandwidth tests see if they improved the mem controller anyhow
eh....
2553/2551

Set LDT to 2,5 and try other RAM, it might not like the RAM.
If you could just show a Sandra mem bandwidth test @ 10x200 and decent timings (2-2-2-6-11-16) we could make a nice compare.
Don't know what's holding you back but it doesn't look promising at all. :(
what would you suggest setting tREF at...
I don't know these Gigabyte mobo's, i suggest you have a look at macci's site:

;)
under absolutely no circumstances will windows boot with CL=2.0 so CL has to be 2.5 at least. Considering that, then I shouldnt go lower than 7 for tRAS or whatever that bigger one is called. Here is
7-2-2-2.5
LDT 3x @ 200
CPU 200x10
tREF is at its lowest value, 1x1552
Your ram chips are bh-5 or ch-5 or another ?
Do you increase Vddr to 2,9v?
Could you tell me the cpu temp °c full-idle at 1,7v ?
Try with only one Memory.
Do you try to desynchronise your ram to 166 or 150 or 133...
do you use clockgen ???
please reply to me.
I had all of the in-BIOS voltage maxed,Quote:

VDDR +.3 (probably 2.8.... shouldnt 2.5 be stock?)
HT voltage +.3
VDDQ +.3
as well as core 1.7
About temps, downloading a large file right now so it will be about a half hour before I can get back to you about them. Idle at 2Ghz is 26ºC though if that interests you
I have it cooled with a swiftech MCW5000, eheim 1250, heatercore, pair of 80cfm fans.
I did use clockgen. when I was trying for 2.4GHz basically what I did was:
-max the voltages
-set LDT to 2.5 (later tried 2 and 1)
- RAM ratio to 150 (4:3) (wanted to be absolutely sure it wasnt the RAM maxing out)
- booted, started up clockgen.
If I lower the CPU multiplier, then I can get the HTT speed up to 253 at 2.5LDT before I have problems, but no matter what combination I use... at 2.4GHz the computer resets almost immediately. I think it needs more vcore.
The RAM is 2x512Mb Corsair XMS3500 v1.1 which is BH5.
Tonight I am going to try it with just one stick in.
there is some problems with BH-5 appearly , but normally the revison CG sould disable this problem.
yes the vcore should be welcome by the cpu.
but less than 2.4 ghz@1,7v in Watercooling iz not fabolous :/
i hope you're not lucky with this chip.
there's no use to increase vddq and vhtt. ;)
hey SupaMan - do you have an smd grabber and a 50killo ohm multi turn variable resistor. the vcore mod is so easy you might just fall off your chair.
i have a pictureless guide up http://www.planetmars.co.za/forums/i...howtopic=11357
also try using only one stick of memory. the giga board often takes offence to two sticks. especially 512mb ones
I have a problem... When i try to set the multiplier to x9 it wont boot up, so i have to clear CMOS - Why can't i change my multiplier?
Please help me...
