So what is the hot idem for Socket A these days?
Is the mobo DFI NF2?
And what is the best clocking CPU??

dfi infinity or lan party rev b iirc. some people get 280fsb+ on those boards STOCK!
best clocking cpu.... if money doesnt matter get one of those 3200+ cpus that are clocked at 2.33ghz instead of 2.2ghz like the normal ones.
or maybe rather get a bunch of mobile 2500+ cpus... you can change multis from windows with those mobile xps and some of them are insane ocers. a few people have hit 2.6ghz on air with them.
and defiantely try to get some bh6! from what ive seen the new bh5 sticks cost a lot more and dont oc that high. bh6 needs less volts than bh5 for the same overclock and also seems to scale better with rising vdimm than bh5.
Allright, finally some xtreme 32bit AMD action. Are you gonna strap your cooling beast on to this OPP??? That'd be sweet.
mhhhhhh i smell 3.5ghz amd here :D
You coming back to Old Skool OPP!!! I have 2 mobile XP 2500's i got friday. I put it in a crappy biostart M7ncg $60 NF2 board, micro ATX, multi, volts and fsb to 225 max on it.
They hit 2500 MHz on the factory sink!!! And a cheap budget board i must stress!!!
Hoping i can mod to put in my Asus 266-d duallie.and upgrade from the 2 xp1700@ 2250mhz each
I tried one, and the pin mod painting, But the dam things default to the lowest Multi like 7 or something. THese are only good on boards that you can adjust the multiplier, Or they default real low.
highest stable barton oc=3.45ghz atm
3.3ghz should be doable with some luck and a few cpus to pick the best of
For sure a DFI Infinity and a mobile 2500...My 2500 will boot into windows at 200x14, but I can't get a shot of it. Once I try to log in I lock. But the only down side is 2v limit on the vcore. Throw a vmod on that, and I bet this thing has 3ghz+ in it.
I agree with the weasel. Take down those prescotts!
:CTF: :D
i sense a great oc coming. good luck opp :) i actually had no idea these DFI NF2 boards were so good, they dont stock them in any of the stores near me (brisbane australia), if there reasonably priced i might order 1 in soon, i was planning on getting an nf7-s rev2.0
Is there a link to one of those 2.33g 3200 chips?Quote:

Edit: found this article from X-bit, guess HP definitely has some:
http://www.xbitlabs.com/news/cpu/dis...205075553.html
lol its a weird idea, but alot of overclockers would like it, having higher multi's unlocked, and 333mhz fsb could easily be brought back up to 400. how much do these retail at compared to the 400mhz 3200? and i believe its clocked at 166x14? also, whats the voltage set at?
i like the 2400 mobile bartons myself.. 100mhz higher clor clock stock than the 2500 at teh same 1.45v default.
yeah better try to get a week ~30 3000+ or 3200+
in case you get a 2500+, the best stepping is AQXEA 0330 "Y"
Yup the infinity is by far the best OC board right now in the 32bit land.
I have one running 260x10.5 24/7, which is my old rig, which became my brother's new rig when I went 64.
I was running 2vcore, 1,9vdd, 3,3vdimm 2-2-2-5 1:1
I'm looking at bagging a cheap A7N8X deluxe, to throw some volt mods in it and to see if I can break 260 FSB with it stable ;)
If anyone knows of where to get a cheap, new A7N8X deluxe lemme know :)
just get a mobile 2500+.. i have mine up to 3ghz and it can load windows all the way up to 3.1
Have you had any luck running those on your duallie? Can't you set the multiplier with the painting guide?Quote:

The 2500+ barton uses 1.25v according to The EggQuote:

My question is why are the 2400's faster than the 2500? Everything looks the same except for the voltages.
With a default vcore that low you should easily be able to hit 3ghz in a prommy. The cache on that chip is the same as the regular 2500+, as well as the mhz, but it needs way less volts? Is it a different manufacturing process? Anyways, I think i'll get one too after reading that.
yah if those chips can do 1.83ghz on 1.25v just imagine what theyll do at 2v
so what ya up to OPP?
I have to do a little research on cooling chipsets. See how much difference it makes from stock cooling to xtreme. When I use to run a NF2 mobo, useing a pelt on the Northbridge made all the difference, allowed for higher FSB and more agressive mem timings.
So I'm going to set up an NF2 rig again and see. While I'm at it I may as well get a good Overclocking CPU:D

Are the 3200 / 166fsb chips unlocked??

On the rev 1.2 NF7 xtreme cooling and xtra voltage took it sky-high, but for the later rev 2.0 without the round metal IHS on the NB chip Xtreme cooling nor more than 1.7Vdd didn't do anything.
My NF7-S rev 2.0 did 242 FSB@ only 1.6Vdd and bluescreened if going over 1.65 at high FSB.
I guess it's just hit or miss with those NF7 's.
Can't speak for any other NF2 board as i only had the Abit.
These Infinty and Lanparty boards seem to do quite well.
It'll be fun to see you pushing a Barton again. :p:
Good luck.
It's not so much the model of the chip, but the week of the chip to tell if it is locked. As least in the case of the "non mobile" bartons. If the barton is pre week 40, it *should* be an unlocked chip. Week 40 and up were locked. However with the mobile bartons, mine was a week 40 something I think, multi is unlocked.
So to answer your question :), if you find a 3200/166fsb chip pre week 40, it should be un locked.
since the Ultra 400 chipsets came out, extreme cooling on the NB hasn't really been necessary at all.Quote:

what you want:
DFI NFII Ultra Infinity with bios 12-10
some BH-5
mobile Barton
that should see ya to 270+ fsb with your skill plus vmods. (HIP 6301 for vcore, vdimm mod in mods section)
You'll want quite a high 5V/12V rail in my experience with the DFI. :confused: I have mine @ 3.7V / 5.6V / 13V
:toast:
What are KT600 chipsets like when it comes to clocking? they are cheap.... My A7N8X died and i need another 400fsb + board to get my 2500 back upto "stock" 2500mhz ;) Since its my 2nd system now, i dont want to spend too much on it, but it still needs to be clocked :)
been looking into getting:
Asus A7V600-X (KT600)
Another Asus A7N8X (although it would be a better rev now and the posibility of reflashing my dead A7N8X)
Abit NF7 v2.0 (nForce2)
:toast:
no locked agp/pci bus ;) get the dfi board... by far the best nf2 board on the market. by far!
Check out the mobile 2400+ :eek: link
I have a week 28 AQUCA 2800+ in my rig. Posted and halfway to windows at 2700 MHz yesterday, on air of course. :toast:
Oh and this board does prime at 240 MHz with 1.65~1.75v vdd ;) so dont worry about NB cooling. A WB wouldnt hurt tho ;)
Do you guys really think that these mobile chips can go higher then a 2.2 Barton?
To late for the mobile anyway, I went and put in my request for a 3200:D
We'll see what happens.
Maybe some 3.2 gig clocking with Xtreme cooling.
OPP
i agree that a 3200+ should oc higher than a mobile. mobiles are popular because they get great oc's and all, but for maximum oc overall, i'd say the 3200+ bartonQuote:

just noticed your location OPP, so, you live quite near CATCH?
btw, what's this socket A o/cing in aid of?
Just got my new KHX3200 BH-5, the best block will do 230MHz cas. 2-2-2-5@2.95v so I recommend these :)
I have Mushkin PC3500 Level II.
It's doing 272MHz with 2-5-2-2 timings on Shuttle NF3 mobo.
This results in the 3rd highest 3D2001 score in the world.
http://service.futuremark.com/compare?2k1=7488703
So hopfully it will do well on the DFI.
OPP
not sure if the 3200s oc that well... ive heard from 2 or 3 people who had the chance to test a bunch of 3200s (working in hardware shops) that they all pretty much maxed out at 2.4ghz on air, the average oc of any 2500+...
again, i think the best chips amd makes are sold as mobiles. whenever they introed a new speed grade they first released it for the desktop and after some time when the yield was good enough took the best of them and released them as the new mobile speed grade...
3200s are not bad cpus, but from what ive heard they are not ocing any better than desktop 2500s...
the chance to get a uber-cpu is MUCH higher buying a mobile xp. not all do well, but at least 50% of them oc better than average desktop cpus, and 1 out of every 4 ocs extraordinaryly well.
my nf7s rev 2.0 did 245@ only 1.4v vdd full stable...i can't go higher because bios 10 didn't more mhz :( and @ 250mhz i can't boot to windows!
i have kingston pc3200 AK2 and have CH-5 right?? my kingston did 233 @ 2-2-2-11 at 2.94v on psu 300w oem! this kingston r ch5 or bh5?? i think they r bh5 because ch5 dont like this timmings!u can explain me??
sorry my english...i know, its really bad! :(
My last socket A chip was a Barton 3000, it did 3d as high as 2970 on stock MachI. With the better cooling these days I'm sure the 3gig range will be easy.
Maybe if the 3200 doesn't pan out I'll try a mobile.

And about that english, it does not matter if it is good or not as long that we understand what you mean;)
Go for the ASUS A7N8X.... There is a new Vmod for it...so you can give the cpu 2.3V or more.
My ASUS does 215Mhz FSB without a mod...with a vdd and VDDR mod it will do 254Mh pifast. With DEFAULT NB sink!
You can mod everything on the A7N8X. AND you can give high Vcore + high FSB what the Abit boards most of the time refuse. The DFI boards have no good and stable Vcore. And most of the time you cannot run high Vcore (2.0V+) and high Vdimm at the same time.
I have had 2 8RDA's, 5 NF7-S boards....and now I have an ASUS. I love it!
http://home.kabelfoon.nl/~vnrswk/pifast2.jpg
Remember this isn't a Barton! Only 256kb cache...
hmmmm i pretty much have the same history nostra, the 8rda+ a bunch of nf7-s 2.0 boards and finally the a7n8x deluxe rev2.0 i really really love this board and im not sure if i would get another one or a dfi if this one should die... i didnt know about the high vcore/fsb/vdimm probs of the dfi boards... i think i will keep recommending the a7n8x then. a7n8x has the best and most stable voltage circuicity ive seen on a mobo. great mosfets and capacitors! even with 2.15v vcore, 2.2v vdd and 3.8vdimm with modded rails the mosfets only get slightly warm under heavvy load, not like the smoking mosfets on abit and epox boards... :D
the onboard stuff gets buggy above 240fsb no matter what vdd though and stops working above 260fsb. what good is 280fsb+ if you cant use high vcore and vdimm.... my board lets me bench at "only" 255fsb max but i can use any vcore and vdimm i want...
but....bh6 ou ch5???who's the best overclockers??Quote:

I think the NF7/S rev2 will be faster than the DFI board, and will "probabably" give a higher CPU clock... I say this merely as ive seen almost nobody on a DFI doing better than 2.7/8 gig at decent FSB.
Once I get around 3gig my FSB falls away... and I havent found a solution yet.
I think once I get my prommy fixed ill just go A64 anyway.
This is on my super Xp-3200 that is one of the few to run 3dmark at 3gig on my MK1 prommy... although that was on 8RDA+ and the FSB sucked.
I never quite got it running right on the NF7, got 3gig easy. but not at 245+ fsb that I can get at 2.8. Then I had the prommy problems and gave it a rest.
Id be interested too see how you get on, especially with what motherboards are best...
I thought you were aircooled with a duron @ 2.2ghz?? But now I see this...2.15v vcore, 2.2v vdd and 3.8vdimm ...that can't be for your aircooled duron that does 2.2ghz? :)Quote:

Allthough I cannot say that I ran 3Ghz....but the 8RDA's wouldn't do it. The Abit board wouldn't run it either. But the ASUS does...
Well hopefully AMD will send me the 3200 chip. In the mean time I ordered a 2400 mobile,, do to popularity:D

Ive yet too see anybody much do 3gig at more than 220fsb (in 3dmark) ... bar maybee LORD.. but I cant for the life of me remember what board he did it on... I have a feeling that was Asus.Quote:

But I see you are "only" running 2.7gig... damned impressive for watercooled duron... but very different to a 3gig barton at 2.3+volts.
I think its down to the ammount of voltage I use at 3gig that may cause some of the problems...
lastviking got 10x280 on his lanparty revb... not 100% stable but with a prommie he might get 3ghz with a 250+ fsb.
Considering OPP has a pci IDE card I doubt that'll be much of a problem, except for the video card. 300/6 = 50mhz. still 16mhz under the normal operational frequency of a Promise IDE card. However, 300/3 = 100mhz AGP which is way out of an ATi card's range :doh:Quote:

Ive never been 100% stable at 3gig, but I have done quite a few 3dmark runs... just a shame I allways had my 9700NP with the poo memory at that time..
http://upl.mine.nu/uplfolders/upload9/2801mhz_cpuz.jpg
(This screen is only for showing high fsb and high cpu speed)
But it´s only a screen. No benchmark speed. This cpu chip is not the best..And i´m only using aircoling (-11 out temp air). But i will modd this board a bit more i think...PM me if you have some problem later on with modds and bios and much more..i know this board pretty well. I will trying to modd so i cane get 290fsb but it will be hard...I don´t know how high my hyperX bh5 goes with tight timmings @3.7-3.9v.
Aparently I have a Infinity B coming.
What does the "B" stand for?? Better chipset or what??
OPP
there is no infinity b, but they have a lan party b. that must be what your getting. the only difference is that it has some additional useless features and looks nice with the black pcb and uv green everything else.
i want one, but i just got a nf7-s and its too late to send back to newegg. but i really need a fsb higher than 200 to really get my mushkin lvl II to a respectable speed. if you're ever gonna get rid of your lan party, i'd gladly take it off your hands :D :toast:
Well my contact said
"She is willing to send an NF2 Infinity B"
So maybe it's a new thing:D
I guess if it's an Infinity with just more features and not a performance enhancment it really doesn't matter anyway.
OPP
Just a newer rev. I wonder what your XP-M 2400 will do. What kind of cooling are you going to put on that thing?
Talked to Travis (DFI guy), It's gotta be a Infinity A or A+
There's the LanParty B ...in this case B isn't revision number, it's part of the model name. So its LanParty B rev A or something like that.
maybe OPP has the uber-new rev. of infinity that none of us have cuz he has connections and stuff
We'll just have to wait and see, I'm guessing a LanParty then:D
Sidebinder,
I'll be cooling it with mild 404a phase change. Down the road I may slap her on a -120c triple cascade for some benching:D
I just got the tracking # for the 2400 chip:)
OPP
It is defiantly the BH-6 and BH-6 chips, if you feed them with 3v+ they will do whatever you tell them to;)Quote:

I mentioned the 2400+ mobile as i reckon they are designed to run at low voltage and decent clocks, usually if a chip does well at low volts it opens some serious wupass with more :D
The Rev B is shown at the store i buy stuff from in the UK so i think its normal. I think the first infinity was a KT400 lol so mebbe its so no-one mistakes it for that heheh.
The 2800+ i have is an AQUCA chip, the same stepping as the 3000+ and probably a 3200+.
It prime stable at:
2.43 GHz @1.75v
2.53 GHz @1.93v
3D Mark stable at:
2.55 GHz @1.95v
PiFast sable at:
2.57 GHz with 2.06v.
The max i have got into windows at is 2.67 GHz and the max i have posted is 2.7 GHz.
This is using an SLK900U and vantec 92mm tornado, thel prime 3d mark and PI Fast testing was done with the case sides on too ;) So at -120 i think you'd manage at least 3.0GHz :D
I imagine you'll get something similar from a 3200+, mines a week 28 btw :)
That is a week 28... it is half a year old! The new ones will go better ;)Quote:

to clarify, guys:
DFI KT400 LanParty
DFI NFII Ultra LanParty A (old version, no mounting holes, not as good clocker, not as much voltage options)
DFI NFII Ultra LanParty B / DFI NFII Ultra Infinity A/A+ (these are identical, I believe rev A's have metal socket lever and A+'s have plastic):confused:
both LanParty B & Infinity are collectively called NFII Ultra B

there was something magical about those week 30s, must have been some very pure silicon or maybe they tried some new mix of metals or protective or isolating layer... the later chips oced worse, but the recent ones seem to oc pretty nice again, only that they are all locked (except for the mobiles of course...)

Thats what I thought - the 3200+ 333MHz is an OEM item - for companys like HP that use cheap boards and RAM that won't run 200 FSB, but need to spec high end CPUs.Quote:

AMD can't send me a 3200 333 chip, they offered a 3200 400 or 3000 333, like a dummy I took the 3000:D

dam i wanna be able to e-mail AMD and tell them what processor i want
i wanna be like OPP when i grow up :D
rofl :rotf:

ohh! nice chip opp, the XPMW are generally pretty good, week 47 should clock well, and batch 193 isnt bad either. i think we may have a 3gig chip here!, seems teh newer the AXP chips the better they OC, especially the unlocked mobiles! im ordering another mobile this week and hopfully ill get a week 50+, a week 1 would RULE!!
GL with that chip opp!
XPMW were the 'good' letters of the 0310 1700+ DLT3C as well.
3Gig with phase-change,
3.??? with - 120?
interesting to see how this week will clock. keep us updated, mine is 1 week newer than you, and different batch.Quote:

The lucky bastard has a XPMW cpu... man. A XPMW Mobile barton, that should do 2.9Ghz on water.... with a bit of luck ;) You can imagine what it whould do on a triple cascade!Quote:

he was talking of a kt600 board, not the a7n8x.Quote:

maybe i can get 3ghz with my waterchiller (2x55W+6x30W=280W tec power:D)
the DFI boards ive looked at dont have MB holes..unless its that colourful one....and im not paying a extra £20 for yellow PCI slots :(
can't wait to see :)Quote:

:( 2.08V is higest what I can run stable. I tryed to do 2.3V mod, but it didn't work?Quote:

If you can get 2700 on air ... simple phase might top 3 gig.
I'm betting on OPP's cascade(and skill !) to pull 3.1-2 out of it.
I hope my modded mach1 will get me up there too, but i'd be happy with a good 2.8 :)
Both Infinity and LanParty B have mounting holes.Quote:

Which ones you looking at?
if you're looking at pics on DFI's website or CPUCity, if you look very closely, there ARE mounting holes.Quote:

bottom one here...?
yes thats it. it has holes.. i have 3 of them. they do have holes.
I have the exact same stepping as OPPAINTERS CPU . Mine is batch 0038 though .
With my relative noobness I have it priming @ 245x11 with 1.95-2.0v Vcore on my LP B with a stock vapo PE .
I can crank it up to 2800mhz within windows , but it wont run a bench at that speed .
I am so hoping prime does not crash :)
It sure beats my old NF7-S which could never run high fsb/vcore and high CPU clock all at once .
Cheers
@ opp
May I ask why you are going to oc an XP again while we have such nice things like A64 and P4EE ? :)

Oh, missed this, thx.
Got the mobo today,
It says NFII ULTRA Infinity on the Box.

Thats a Rev A (only one of Infinitys). Should be very good to you. Ive ran 3d at 260fsb.
ok, sorry again for jumping in on someone elses thread, but would a old (i mean OLD first rev) Swiftech MCW462-B fit this board? might use my TEC's again :)
Aye, good stuff OPP. :)
12-10 BIOS will be your friend. Allows high FSB and very fast per clock on BH-5 (and I know you have some).
Cant wait to see the numbers this setup will make, Barton's havent seen the mega-OC light since March last year.
Good luck with the infinity, OPP :)
I hope you can get it going high fsb and high vcore together. I have to wait till I get a LP B as an exchange for my 3rd dead (crappy) infinity :(
With 268x11 it locked up due to the heavy load on components :mad: I only have a locked barton 2500+ being not extraordinary at all. Considering to try a new mobile now too :)
And with your extreme XT, cooling and clocks it should be easy for you to break 25 if not even 26k ;)
You have tryed the new voltmod? The old one gave me only 2.1V... The new one can give me 2.3V and more..Quote:
