AN7 OVERCLOCKED!!!!!!!

Athlon Mobile... no L12 mod

[Dominos]

wow nice figures argh! tobad I'm not at home ATM, I'll be up all night trying to get this puppy to run fast

[enduracell]

ATTENTION
Disable the CPU disconnect function and always use 6/6 otherwise may experiences random freezes
Tictac the 133CPU propably work ok with C18R2 I will tell for sure tomorow so don't bother looking at it
S2K don't work anyway from BIOS

yeap out of the box only with ur BIOS

[Dominos]

I noticed a funny bug I cant boot with 166FSB or 200FSB, BUT 220 and 230 works fine? used clockgen upto 245, at 250 the comp. died due to voltage issues :d It needs over 1.9 in bios to be stable over 2.5 and I only gave it 1.87 from bios at 10x250
But I have a little problem, some boots it works fine but others it freezes quick. I have the divider fixed at 6/6 and CPU disconnect funktion - disable. I'l try some more and report back later...

EDIT: Now this BIOS is really weird!?!?! I can only boot at some specific FSB's and I get random freezes all the time, superpi and 3d are fine up to 240 but only for a little while I hope you pin down the last bugs so that it'll run stable couse this is a major asswhoping bios!

[tictac]

even though the FSB is much easier clock up... but the bios need furture tweak & patch... 250FSB in no time

yeah .....i received many issue on this new bios especially,.... system freezing & tons of erros in MemTest #5

Hope some1 can continue R&D this bios...

kinda busy lately with my study... dont have much time to look into it again for time being...

Good luck bro.. :beers:

[The Runner]

Should I go for a NF7 or AN7 then after reading this?

Also what is the best bios for both?

[tictac]

DFI Infinity is a top class board why would you need another board?

[Henry]

Here's my highest "benchable FSB" with AN7 and AXP-M (no L12 mod), CPU Interface Enable, 11-2-2-CL2, N24AAC18 bios :

[tictac]

henry check out Abit USA forums

Mr Enduracell just post new bios for AN7

Might fix the bug... especially the freezing issue and memtest #5 issue

anyway... Congrats... 36Sec PI on 245MHz FSB

[Henry]

Thanks tictac, i'll give it a try

I have a little problem with N24AAC18 : the max vcore i can use is 2v only, it can't load windows with > 2v vcore.

Btw, do you think L12 still needed for AXP-M / 133 FSB tbred/barton ?

[enduracell]

this problem exists on my combo too. I can't use Vcore above 2.03v and enter WIndows. But this bug exists on official BIOS too. I think it must be ACPI related.

[tictac]

Try use ACPI from other board..

maybe throw in DFI ACPI or NF7 ACPI in to that bios could help

or disable APIC mode... but that will hurt Benchmark score back down

[enduracell]

Ok I wiil through DFI ACPI and see what happens.
THanks for the advice tictac

AN7 vs DFI Infinity
clock per clock benchmark result

check it here:
http://www.overclockerindo.com/modul...a3d516889da434

[The Runner]

so they're both very simular ? I cant speak the language its wrote in either

[tictac]

similar clock per clock Performance

but

DFI can clock higher than 245MHz... up to 265MHz stable

but AN7 maxed out @ 245MHz stable

[The Runner]

whats the most stable board out of the AN7 / Infinity / NF7?

[Dominos]

Why not use the ACPI from NF7? DFI has problem with 2v+ too, but I have never heard about a NF7 having problems...

And the most stable between those three would be NF7 or AN7 IMO, and since AN7's bios is f*cked up I'd go for a NF7 if I wanted stability....

Hello tictac,
help me for the agpvmod please... ...thanx .
