DFI looks to have a winner here.

[Ubermann]

try "100 1/2" the first option

[Zeus]

lol, guys, nothing then 1:1 makes any sense on a A64-rig....your HTT could be 1000MHz.....when u would have a 1/5-divider your sandra-benchies would be @ normal 200MHz-results

HTT (async-driving), doesn't bring ANY boost....so, just forget that und drive 1:1 and enjoy

It's all about finding the boards max.
Imagine one could find mem that does 400MHz....

And like Ubermann says, it was fun!

[ugp]

Good job man...I shall try 420 as well...I have yet to try that...I will try it tonight

Ubermann add me to your message list Yahoo! or AIM

heyz



with 5x multi PC don´t boot (error "Detecting array")

[p4z1f1st]

man...i think, i've got the worst Board ever produced by DFI....it even won't make a HTT of 300MHz !!!!

i even set EVERYTHING @ timings on AUTO except of the divider (1/2)....FSB set @ 300MHz with 1/2-divider = DRAM-frequency of 150MHz....

mutli set @ 6.....i even won't boot-up clear.....it craps out at the drive-detection-screen in the beginning and hangs up.....

what to do?

Get yourself a ClawHammer.
All 400+ results are ClawHammers.

[Ubermann]

Do you run "command per clock" disable ?

Enabled and you get real good bandwidth but very unstable over 300FSB.
Disabled and you can run pretty much anything out of this world.
I noticed (maybe already posted here)
With 2T you can run Drive strength level 4
With 1T you must run level 1 (max 2)

Correct me if im wrong about this plz.

[p4z1f1st]

hmm....kk, i only runned with 1T....

so, ubermann, i'm running always with level4....thought, it would be the "relaxed" of all 4 options....

hmm...kk, i'll try again....

[p4z1f1st]

ok, i give ti up.....i tried everything, but it just hangs up in the same screen (drive-detection-screen)......

so, then i tried to drive my EBs with CPC-off qith 270MHz @ memtest.....hangs up.....now i really don't know, what me holding back....my CPU? my board? my RAM?

it just CAN'T BE, that all 3 items have they limit at the same point!

it just CAN'T BE! what for a fu*king random that has to be?!?!

now i'm getting frustated

just don't know, what's holding back

[Ubermann]

Can it be SATA ?
I use IDE and so does ugp and zeus from what i can see.

[p4z1f1st]

hmmmm........could it be?

...oh man, damn it all

@ bigtoe: did/do you use IDE or sATA? (what drive did you use for the 425MHz-HTT-record?)

[spaceman]

I see a drive detection screen sometimes, after making changes in the BIOS. Just let it go a minute, and it'll hit the normal boot screen.

[ugp]

I shall try some new settings and see what I get and then I will post back

And yes I have an IDE drive... I want two new SATA in a RAID 0

[spaceman]

Welp, I swapped out the mobile 3000+ for the DTR 3200+. I can get good clocks with low temps, but it takes a lot of voltage. I'm using 1.613v, I think, (fluctuates in CPUZ) for 2.5 GHz., and the chips only 27C. I about had 2.6 GHz., but when I got to 1.7-something, I chickened out, lol. What do you guys think, should I play it safe, and call 2.5 good, or go for it, since the temps are good? This is just good air BTW, no vapo or prommie.

[ugp]

That isn't that high of voltage. On air it isn't recommend to go any higher than v1.8. That temp is very good, I would go for it man. I would give anything to hit 2.5GHz right now. What settings where you using and what memory do you have?

[spaceman]

Usin' 2x512s of Mushkin LII 3500, @ 5-2-2-2-1t. I've had the RAM to 240 @ 3.3v, but the chip does much better using the 5/6 divider. Kinda of a trade off, @250 5/6, the RAM's only doing 208. If they recommend 1.8v tops, then it's probly good for 1.9v or 2.0v, dontcha think?

Go for it. I am setting on 2550 Prime stable with 1.85v with bad air. I know she will go 26xx with some cooling. The DTRs have turned out to be my best clockers & I have mobils,desktops both N/C & C/H , & DTRs. All are 3200 CGs Except the N/C 3400. The DTRs are the only 1m CPU I can get over 2500 Stable with my cooling. I have made it to windows at 27xx. Love to atleast have some water on it. My 3400 N/C only goes 2580 prime stable.

Welp, 2600 MHz. won't happen here, I even got nutty enough to try 1.968vcore. However, I got 2550 MHz. 3DMarkable, and broke 29k!! Enough for the bottom of the 1st page if you type in Athlon & XT PE. http://service.futuremark.com/compare?2k1=8135079 Doin' it with 1.65vcore @ 26C in the BIOS.

[Tony]

I used an IDE HDD for the 425 run and have used an SATA HDD on my retail board and hit 425HTT again...thing is both boards won't do 1HTT more for me as they are stock with good air cooling.

[Tedinde]

I'll be finally joining in on this DFI fun tomorrow. GameVe, shipped monday, I ordered 3 of the 754 250gb boards. Finally they will be here and more memory volts!!!

[eva2000]

try "100 1/2" the first option

k used 1:2 divider with 1x 512MB Kingston KHX3200/512 BH-5 week 27, 2003 stick of ram @ 2-2-2-6 1T and managed with AMD64 3400+ Newcastle 372HTT with LDT at AUTO and rest of mem settings at AUTO

sandra reports AUTO LDT set it as 2.5x LDT so 930mhz hypertransport speed

Nice numbers, but just numbers. No real benefit from these settings.

I´d be impressed by high "1:1"-results, but 372MHz reference-clock (what lot of people incorrectly refer to as "HTT") gives you nothing, when you clock down your RAM and get "normal" HTT-speeds with x2 or x2.5 multipliers.

Greetz, Flox

[eva2000]

yeah i know 1:1 is where it's at even with 372HTT 2:3 divider with ram at 248mhz 2-2-2-6 - memtest86+ reports bandwidth as 1710MB/s versus 245mhz 2-2-2-6 1:1 memtest86+ reports 1739MB/s

ok, now i don't know what to do
