Yeah, but shouldn't the 667 stuff be able to do 333 FSB, no matter how crappy? I was also running some OCZ PC8000 and still couldnt' get it stable above 340 or so

edit: I might need to send you...

Default ram specs for Kingston valueram 667: 5-5-5-15, 1.80v

What was your CPU voltage at in the first pic? Can't make it out with the funny color it changes

Had a 100 CFM fan pointing right at it during all testing, the northbridge was lukewarm to touch (it was awfully hot before, though!)

I'm still having headaches with this board - switching to OCZ ram got me over my hump at 320FSB, but now at 345 - 350 it doesn't fail prime, it just locks the machine up solid. Adding voltage hasn't...

Heh, who would have thought we'd have the same symptoms for completely different problems?

Is anyone else finding that this board has funny behavior when selecting voltage in the bios? At "auto"...

Update: Still running strong on this OCZ stuff. Going to trade in my kingston for a pair of Corsair XMS2 PC6400 sticks. I love working retail :D

I'm having the same problem with a P5B vanilla and an E6400. Everything up to 315 or 318 FSB works great, but a setting like 333 crashes almost immediately in Prime.

I've learned Kingston RAM is...

Running an E6400 and a vanilla P5B. Tried overclocking with both the 0211 and 0213 bioses, have not gone all the way back to 0170 yet.

Thought a nice easy spot to start for the overclock would be...

If you shoot for higher FSB, you'll get closer to getting your ram back up to 200 mhz, which would be nice

Does the P5B have any options to go less than 1:1 on the memory? I'm running some crappy DDR2 667 and anything over about 380 FSB my ram gives up on me... I know this chip has more room left in it!

From what I heard, the original Fab 30 was put in Dresden because there were a ton of east german scientists out of work after the USSR collapsed. Lots of pre-trained, talented workers :)

It was retail, we ordered it from one of our distributors in vancouver. they had just gotten them back in stock.

I just picked up a 3200+ this week... 0442SPEW on this one. Putting the water cooling together this weekend (have to finish classes first :mad: ) but I'm running 2450 @ 1.40v right now, which is...

Well, if you're going to say that, post a link :p

Oh, I would imagine it is :)

Well, I'm not a huge fan of paypal, but if that's what it takes, I'll live with it. I don't want to wait 3 weeks to get the board back.

I almost hate to give up the one I have... PCI lock is...

Wicked. Now if someone can give 2.0v vcore, I'll be happy :D

I've got a KV8 Pro with a wonky DIMM slot... I'm debating using the Abit cross-ship. The $7 fee doesn't bother me, but the fact that they take the $150 deposit through paypal seems a little...

Please post pics and explanations!

Has anyone tried modding this abit board? I could use more than 1.85v on the cpu, and the board maxing at 2.8v VDimm is making me sad

(sure it can be adjusted later in windows, but I want to boot...

With the beta 15 bios, my rev 1.0 board has multiplier adjustment.

This seems like a good place to ask, rather than starting a new thread.

Is there a windows application that will report PCI and AGP bus speeds? Kind of a double-check on whether the locks are...

Putting together an A64 upgrade on a bit of a budget. Given the choice, which would you take? If they're both newcastle cores, will they probably max out at the same overclock, or is the 3000+...

Our distributor has the KV8 Pro listed... not in stock yet, but the price is right ($100 CAD :eek: ). I haven't seen a whole lot one way or the other about the board. Has anyone here played with...
