OK,
I found it in the bios and it is enabled. But syill not working for me.
Ok I am at 2.2 ghz steady on a Venice 3000+ with 2.5 cl on the ram I get a blue screen every now and then. How should I go about tweaking my ram and keeping the 2.5 cl. It is 2.0 Plat OCZ Rev. 2. Setting suggestions?
Should I just set it to 3.0 to crank it up to 2.4 and beyond? I'm not too familar with tweaking the ram much more then just changing the CL
Try to change other Trcd / Trp / Tras, with 2.5/4/4/10 you have bad timings but you can test high clocks ...
I re-switch to 1.A3 mod4 by Syar ... not stable with 1.3b6 ... but the 1.A3 seems to have a coldboot bug (with high fsb) ... I will do some test before confirm it.
does anyone know of a ovp mod for adj the vore i just did it but when i go higher than 1.8 it just reboots
thats cuz your cpu wont handle it dude
none of the amd64 cpu's will handle that kind of voltage unless your on vapo
but the mobo itself maynot handle that high.
now i maybe totlly wrong,, but ive tried it and the same thing happens.
1.8 is just insane and even alot of vapo chillers dont even go that high
Hello all neo2 users.
I have been now reading about the bests bios with venice and tccd memorys.
But im still in same place...what bios shuld i use too get best o/c?
Im now with 1.36mod bios old 1:(
And i cant hit over 300HTT and i cant use htx2 or ht x2.5 but x3 and x4 and x5 works nice when i need too changes.
My comp want boot with x2 or x2.5 in ht:(
So please what bios shuld i try?
And where cant i get it from?(link)
EDIT:
I use TT bigwater cpu cooler to get my temps ok..if that helsp to find good bios for me.

ok first
1)
whats your CPU ? what voltages are you using ?
1:1 your not gunna get that high of an HTT value. if you can get 300mhz 1:1 then bro you are lucky. Thats personal experience and also research talking. The neo2 just dont go that high 1:1
run the ram on a 166 divier and drop your cpu down to 8x and run the HTT @ 2.5x see what happens, then try the same but change to 133mhz ram.
TCCD ram needs 2.85 or 2.9 or 2.95v on this board to go that high. 1:1 and most of the time you wont get that high anyways.
2)
what ram do you have ? what voltages and what timings are you using.
3)
i personally recommend and the other guys will probably agree. use the NFM bios's 1.8 rev 3 or 1.36 rev 4. i am using the 1.36 rev 4 and its great. i get slight better overclock on BH5 and TCCD. plus it allows up to 1.8v cpu incase you have a cpu you want to fry ;)
i can run 370mhz HTT 7x cpu multi and ram @ 133mhz. (for me 8x multi is the sweet spot but 7x is perfect also)
cas timings are totally dependant on your ram. tccd start with 2.3-3-10 and then 2.5-4-3-10 then 2.5-4-4-10 then 3-4-4-10 until you find the spot that works best. btw the way there is absolutely no speed difference in 2.5-4 and 2.5-3 none i did a bunch of tests last night and the only thing it does is cause the ram to be a little tighter and cause errors if you have a high mhz ram like 265mhz+ switch to 2.5-4-3-10 you wont loose speed but it relaxes the ram and should let you go higher HTT
Hi,
What chipset drive do you recommend for this mobo?
Right now I use 5.03
chipset drive lol i was like huh? you meant DRIVER...
for me,, i recommend the 4.27 or the 5.10 or whatever it is right off nvidia's website.
If you use the 7.x those are designed for nforce4 boards and some people make them work good but i have had issues if i install them.
the 5.x drivers have an IDE bug that causes the system not to boot when you have certain DVD-CD roms installed,, you have to unplug them for windows to boot. If you dont have that issue then dont worry but my Lite-On dvd burner is one of the drives with issues with these drivers.
frankly if your happy with the drivers now your not really going to get any increase by going to a newer driver. the 5.10 were the last official nforce 3 driver if i remember correctly.

So where can i find the 1.36 rev 4 bios?
I have tryed out now 4 or 5 diffrents cpus and i have big trubbles too get up to 300htt or more i have tryed 300x8or9 and i have tryed with x3ht lowest...if i go lower and my comp will not boot more:(
So i shuld try 1.36 rev 4bios?

Thanks Lestat,
I do actually have oc problem. I pass memtest fsb255 (2-2-2-8, 3.4V) but in windows i can only hit 237fsb stable!
Singelchannel is 260fsb (2-2-2-8, 3.4V)in Windows no problem!?
The CPU is not the problem.....
Anyone here using A64x2 in your NEO2? How's the o/c result? My 3800+ reached 2650MHz but any thing higher will leadd to unstable system.
Vega if your ram wont do 250mhz in windows RMA it.
or reload windows there could be a hardware issue caused by a driver thats doing it.
and go to 3.5v and try it the ram will hold 3.6v just fine.
waiho are you the one who posted the thread about the poopy oc'ing San Diego ? i saw someone had almost identicle results.
Sideeffect has a san diego and runs it at 3ghz no issues he says. so.
you must have got a bad overclocker.
i mean frankly guys the higher the chip number the worse it overclocks is what i have seen thats the same for winchesters, clawhammers, venice's, newcastles... they all seem to overclock bettter the lower the stock cpu is. maybe thats jsut me but i see that everywhere.
My 3200+ is a total turd, only hits 2.7 and its now unstable at 2.7 so the chip is dieing.
heh no issues u say. Well i wouldnt say that i have issues all the time. To many issues to moan about them all day on forum ussually they can be solved.
Was reading over at msi german forum that maybe they found a way to unlock the 150 and 183 dividers in the 1.A4 bios. ALthough i think that those options are coming soon anyway in a future msi bios.
Im still using 1.8 at the moment will do until maybe 1.A5 is out i havnt tried any of the 1.A versions but ive heard some good things so am looking forward to testing it out.
well i didnt mean NO issues lol
more like no BIG issues that's keeping you from running your SD chip @ 3ghz lol.
bah i just dont trust MSI to make a bios anymore. i'm not sure who's coding them but they suck.
What speed did you get the redline up to Lestat?
Im getting into my burning in. Seems to work :woot: im using windows memtest and i set voltage to the max so thats 2.85 volts then i run a ram setting that didnt work before leave memtest running even though it detects errors for a few hundred percent. Then i reboot at 2.8 volts and run test again and i swear the errors are gone.
Im still using this 166 divider and burning it in has i think made it usable. Cpu wont really do more than 3ghz it starts rebooting at 3070 + and errors like crazy over 3020 or so in super pi etc. So im focusing on tightning up the memory timings now.
not sure your runnig a divider on that ram. the DFI nf4 boards dont even let this ram run on a divider very well. the redline just doesnt work with dividers , even the Mushkin forums are filled with people upset that the ram doesnt like a divider. maybe they changed it in later rev's of the ram
The guy i got the ram from had it runnig at 265mhz @ 3.65v on an Ultra-D which is pretty much on par.
for your burn in Side Effect you need to run the ram at 250mhz 3.4v as thats the stock setting and voltage for the pc4000 redline. i dont know what the stock voltage is for the pc3500.
you arent going to get very far at all with only 2.85v you'll need a volt modded board or the ddr booster.
anyways run 250mhz 3.4v run prime overnight or set it and go to work. then raise the ram up 5 and leave the same voltages, and prime again. if it fails go to 3.45v and just keep raising the mhz until it fails then raise the voltages.
seriously though if you have mushkin that runs a divider good then i think you got a good set but i cant say if it will run a divider past 250mhz..
My mushkin died... 1 stick is dead and the other is failing with only a max setting of 260mhz 3.6v and prime failed right away so i rebooted and the stick was dead...
yanked that bad stick out and it booted up,, then ran 255 3.6v and it was ok went up to 260 and it seems solid for a while then the 2nd stick started dieing.
so basiclly i have 2 dead sticks. The guy i got them from has been a real champ about it and is taking this ram back and sending me some super Corsair PC3500 original BH5. he had that running 270mhz 2-2-2-5 at i think like 3.7v or something close to that.. but its original bh5 she will take anything you give it.
im done messing with this neo2 though,,, my PC4800 TCC5 dont run right and i think its bad too. but Sean at OCZ has yet to respond to me with OCZ's settings for a neo 2 and this ram but i cant even run 265 2.85v 2.5-4-4-10 without errors and without a doubt this ram should be pulling 2.5-3-3-10 280mhz minimum or around 275mhz before loosening it up more.
Im a little upset at OCZ ram right now but i wont let it go further until i get an Ultra-D board...
I dont have redline Lestat i have crucial ballistix and 3.4 volts would kill it for sure . Maybe thats not such a bad thing though.
I was refering to your redline but looks like you replaced that now.
oh sorry hahahah sorry
im a bit screwy today my mind just isnt right.
but yeah the redline died so im back on this TCC5 PC4800.
Burn in only works for UTT and BH5 other ram it doesnt help.
I dont recommend people immediately go out and massively overclock their ram but burn in only really works for bh5 and utt.
tccd and tcc5 it definately doesnt work from the threads here and other forums and my own testing.
I just got this board up and running and so far I have had much better luck than with the dfi nf3 ultra board. I had a couple of questions that I have been reading through to find so hopefully I didn't just overlook them. What is the mtrr mapping mode in the dram config? Also are there any modded bioses that will give you access to write to read delay and read to write delay? I am currently using 1.A4 murdok modbios. These settings are too aggressive. I am currently oc'd at 10x250 but I had to loosen up on some of the ram settings. After looking with A64 tweaker I can see these 2 timings are too tight for my oc.
yeah i agree i think they are too agressive also. which may link to why i have such bad overclocks...
i wish they would make those settings visible for us to use. Since you can change them inside th ebios hack tool then you can make them visible inside the bios itself for us to change.
i would really like to see a totally hacked bios that shows everything... there has got to be more stuff there.
have you tried the 1.36 Rev 4 or the 1.8 rev 3 ?
what cpu and ram do you have? that will help us help you.
I just updated my sig. I have an x2 3800 so I have to stay with 1.9 and higher. I am using 2x1024 patriot pc3200 LL 2-3-2-5 ram. If I loosen the ram timings to 2.5-3-9-3 I can get better oc's. I was hoping there was a modbios that would open up all of the settings including bank interleave and one for the chipset voltage.
No there is no chipset voltage linked. Only way to adjust it would be to Solder a resistor. Also i very much doupt it needs doing anyway with your setup. The ram will never go high enough to need the extra chipset voltage.
People run 300+ HTT fine with the current voltage.
I have had the ram as high as 240htt but if I use a divider I shouldn't need it to go past 235. I had the chip up to 2.65ghz in another board but the board had a lot of issues so i dumped it. I would be happy with a bios that had access to the other memory settings. I did notice a setting that the current modbios made available and I have no idea what it does. Maybe someone here knows. It is called MTRR Mapping Mode.
