Could B3 Phenom be the rebirth of AMD....+1000MHZ OC done!

[Undersea]

Well Oskar must be sending you special Bios then because AOD locks up the PC at random just opening the Program up! Now with current AOD it shuts it down just by opening it up NO Oveclocking Done what so ever and defaults loaded in Bios. There most certainly is a Issue with this Board and AMD Overdrive!

I get this with 2.017

Tony, there is a "New" 4/16/2008 Beta up on DFI Site I am actually on it now.

I will be on it tomorrow, I doubt they have fixed the HT issue though. Force it with AOD to say 2.2GHZ at 2.4GHZ NB and 3GHZ CPU and the board just crashes hard, setting from bios does nothing, you are stuck at 2GHZ and have to push HTT to get higher.

you need the updated driver/engine/dll from over at techpowerup

My 9850...it LIVES! Bwahaha

Anyway, I'll post back here later with some results when I've got them.

[Sparky]

I've waded through pages but I haven't found this (maybe I'm just blind)

Has anyone clocked a B3 on a DFI M2RS, if so how well did it do?

[Tony]

Now that is an odd result. Can it be that you had too less nb vid applied at 2200MHz and 2400MHz. I'm shooting into dark here but maybe some internal error correction is in the way here.
Another thing is max async latency. This memory timing has an big impact on everset memory benchmark. Using an higher memory voltage resulted in an lower max async latency. I skimmed over the BKDG and found that it's value gets optimized at start with some pattern testings.

Don't have the DFI and 9850 running, testing 4850e in M3A but i found those setup screenies from my previous tests.

2.8/2.2GHz: MAL 56ns


2.8/2.4GHz: MAL 59ns


Between reboots at the same settings MAL differs at about 1ns, the other 2ns difference must be caused by the different NB speed.

Does the 1T setting work on the DFI for you? I allways have to use memset for that.

I will go back and test again, it got a little cold in thew workshop so had to pack it in for the night...CPU in bios was showing -5C LOL which I know is wayoff but its usually around 6C so I know it was cold

Working on it tomorrow.

Right now using stock cooler and its much too hot.

I'll try it again

Oh I just found a fix

sweet thanks, I'll be watching

oh on the vista 64 bit... I used it for a little while, got F@H running on it fine, and it wasn't slow with 2GB of ram. Just needs a couple tweaks and it works pretty well. Disable UAC, install F@H outside of program files, and disable "windows search" service to turn off indexing (which is responsible for the incessant disk thrashing).

AOD lives on the M2RS with a 9850, very nice. Seems to function

A few brief results so far. Temps seem average (52C under load for ~5 mins) using an Arctic Cooling Freezer 64 Pro and IC Diamond thermal paste. Reassuringly, my new K9A2 hasn't blown up yet after an hour or so of the thing being on. I've tried 2.6GHz at default voltage with good luck. If it makes 3.0 I'll be satisfied. 3.1 would make me excited and 3.2 would make me quite surprised. We'll see how this ends up, but in any case it'll be better than the C2D I had before (which is dying--barely stable at 1.5V).

AOD is working with the MSI K9A2 Platinum.

I dont understand why people arent overclocking their processors above 3.0 EASILY. Am i just lucky? All i know how to do is raise the multi to 15 and its stable. Im sitting at 3.0ghz and the temps are 31/32c system says 46c and the chipset is 46c also.

I have the MR2S i think... thats the cheaper version of the DFI LP MR2 right?
My system and chipset seem hot

[Undersea]

Is that Vista 64?

[Particle]

Yours does 3.0 at default vcore (I know what it's showing in AOD, but that's often wrong so I'm asking anyway)?

---

2.8 so far under extended load at default looks good--trying 2.9 soon

In AOD or Bios?

AOD is locking up at 13.5 & 14 @ stock volts. I will try in bios. Maybe read Tony's thread again.

[unkn0wnhacka]

its vista 32 and the ONLY thing i have changed in the BIOS is the multi to 15.

I cant use overdrive anymore because now whenever i press the auto clock my speakers go WEERRRRRRRRRRRABASDASD WEERRRRRRRRRRRR and i gotta shut my computer off. why? '
I wish i knew how to change the voltages or do something more than just raise the multi.

AOD. 14.5x200 (2900) is working at stock voltage too so far (p95-amd64-4td) and it's been about 10 minutes

[Particle]

Crash instantly at 3.0 using default vCore. I'll try jacking it up a bit.

[unkn0wnhacka]

whats the option for vcore? i cant find it rofl

let me know what you are doing please i cant oc phenoms very well

[unkn0wnhacka]

Hey guys... do you change bios settings then let AOD do the rest?

My AOD says
System is tuning, and this may take several minutes to several hours.

Current CPU clock is: 223 MHz
Current HT Link ref. clock is: 223 MHz

AutoClock is finished successfully!

So if i go and change my multi in the bios will my pc crash?
At 223mhz im only at 2787 MHz
If i raise the multi first and then run AOD it crashes after 3.0ghz

Does AOD auto tune rise the cpu and nb voltage also? If not try it with a higher cpu and nb voltage.
KTE tried it on the K9A2 Platinum. See here.

[Particle]

How should NB increase with vCore? I haven't been changing it because NB clock has been staying the same. Did I see somewhere that NB voltage needs to be >= vCore?

[unkn0wnhacka]

I cant figure out where to change those voltages in the bios lol.. i could use aod but does that change the bios or just apply a software patch everytime i boot up?

Change in PWN Feature in Genie Bios

What are you guys running latest AMD Overdrive or build 2.0.14????
