Cell-SHOCKS ag. DDR3-2000 7-6-5-18 1T Prime_Pi Stable

[saaya]

vincenzo, so does increasing the cpu pll voltage help to get a high fsb stable or does it help to boot and bench at a higher fsb?
It didnt help me to boot and bench at a higher fsb at all, so i left it at auto.
FSB voltage bumped to 1.5v did help though and is needed to reach 530+ with the 6600 in this system.

what cpu are you using?

hehe I know the bad is a mess. I will try to fix it soon, that is for sure. But I can still sleep surprisingly well

dreaming of gorillakos strong arms holding you?
what does he have that i dont have? :,(

PLL voltage usually helps you to clock the CPU's FSB better when the CPU hits a wall. With most CPUs I have tested I need about +0.1V above 450 MHz FSB. FSB-Termination voltage usually helps to clock the board higher, FSB-wise. I didnt have to use more than +0.15V to hit 500 MHz FSB so far.

so fsb vtt or vfsb as its sometimes called is more of a help to get the chipset stable at higher fsbs and to be able to boot at higher fsbs, correct?

well first i could only get around 450fsb with this 6600 but bumping the vcore to 1.5v solved that and i got to 480 iirc, bumping vfsb gave me a headroom to reach 530, above that things got unstable. i tried raising cpu pll voltage but this didnt help me to get 535 stable either and i didnt want to try more vcore with the crfappy hs i was using back then.

The 666FSB CPU sound good, but I dont think its gonna come true any time soon. 400MHz will first hit the server market, then desktop CPUs. 666 is still a very long way to go. And even Oskar had a hard time hitting 600 MHz FSB on a retail board, so to think 666 MHz FSB on a retail board will come true son, is basically impossible if you ask me

but it is possible, and yes you would basically need a custom motherboard but hey, what else is quadfx and intels v8?
they could pick boards that can hit 600+fsb and cpus that can hit 600+fsb.
IF k10 beats 45nm (very unlikely unfortunately) then intel might actually do this... but yeah, its more of a nice thing to dream about

But 666MHz FSB and 6-6-6 timings looks "damn" good

Very nice explanation! =)

jupp, thanks vincenzo!

Edit: I had half an hour to play with the sticks 1 GHz is a no go even with 10-10-10-30. I managed to improve the low latency clock a bit, but not by much. And it seems like I really need 2.24V to boot with cl5 and 750MHz.
I managed to get this 1m stable, but the screenshot is corrupt :/

Some real stability tests are planned for the weekend

have fun then
