NF7-S users - highest u can run with CPU interface on

**Ragnarok** · 09-25-2003, 10:27 PM

Hey guys, wats the highest FSBspeed u can run with CPU interface enabled (for ultra high efficiencies)?

Highest I can run is 232 with Interface on (board has done 246 with it off). Increasing VDD/Vdimm doesnt seem to help with CPU interface

Anyways to get CPU interface higher?

my bios doesnt liek it at all no matter what fsb :\

**SAE** · 09-26-2003, 12:49 AM

Up to 252MHz single (did not try higher)/don't know if dual too, dual up to 250 is sure

Trying another cpu may help...

Don't know exactly why some cannot do it enabled... weird issue though

**Ragnarok** · 09-26-2003, 01:36 AM

ohhh u got a sandra bench @ 252 SC?

No. I did not take one

Can do later... If I get my antec 550 today...

BTW I got the false 9800 model on rma... a nonpro

Have to wait till the right one arrives next week...

I wish I could get 228 stable DC and cpe enable

**lazytech** · 09-26-2003, 07:02 AM

I ran 230 no problem on the board i killed the other day.
230X11

THis new one im still working on. ran prime 14 hours at 225 (low multi for testing purposes)

now priming at 225X11, just gonna work my way up

**Marci** · 09-26-2003, 07:13 AM

229 DC & CPU Interface Enabled.

**st0nedpenguin** · 09-26-2003, 07:38 AM

240 DC CPU Interface Enabled.

Then my SB heatsink fell off, shorted something, and now all my board will do is "oooga, oooga, oooga".

New one coming tomorrow though, hoping Marci and the chaps and chapesses can send me another beastly one.

Ouch! That's a painfull loss.

Mine does 242 DC CPU interface enabled, 11-2-2-2.0

**Ragnarok** · 09-26-2003, 08:59 AM

that's it, I am getting a new cpu..

**kup** · 09-26-2003, 02:23 PM

I can run 250MHz(so far) DC Sync with it enabled!

It's a week16 C1 stepping n/b and only needs 1.76v(stock) for 250MHz DC Sync!

I can try to get some Sandra benches if you want!

**SAE** · 09-26-2003, 02:33 PM

Thx kup for the info

Here's mine at 252x9,5 2,0-2-2-11 dual channel.

Please excuse the bad img quality but I have just a crappy defective gf2mx till my 9800p comes from rma

**corrupt** · 09-26-2003, 04:40 PM

I'm getting better bandwidth than that at 235

What kind of vdd voltage are you guys running and where are you measuring it from?

**TheDude** · 09-26-2003, 05:09 PM

225fsb cpu and Dc on

regular water cooling
no mods

**afireinside** · 09-26-2003, 05:21 PM

Think I'll get over 200 if I turn this thing off?

**saaya** · 09-26-2003, 06:07 PM

what did you do to your 9800 sae? does windows look like that all the time with that card?

post a screenshot of a game please

must look really funny

**Nebulous** · 09-26-2003, 07:27 PM

237 DC w it enabled

**Ragnarok** · 09-26-2003, 08:09 PM

SAE - those benchies look rather low

@ 252 DC, u should be getting around at least 96/91% efficiency

btw, can u do those fsb with the radeon 9800 as well?

**cowpuppy** · 09-26-2003, 08:52 PM

It's because he is running on a 9.5 Multiplier. If you want high band width you really need to run on the 11x or higher multiplier

Here is 240x11 DC cpu enabled

**TheWeaseL** · 09-26-2003, 11:39 PM

I did 230 stable, in SC with it enabled...I could post at 240, but windows would crap on me...Seeing as how I was using PC3000 ram, 230 is pretty good I think.

**Marci** · 09-27-2003, 02:40 AM

On a sidenote, Penguin - send me yer ooga ooga board n' I'll take a peek n' see if I can resurrect it for ya...

**st0nedpenguin** · 09-28-2003, 04:19 AM

Definitely, just gotta find the time, prolly pop it over in person, might even spend more than 35 seconds in the shop this time too.

I removed the little vreg sink on the front of the card... removing three vreg-chips with it

Got a 9800 nonpro 2 days ago

Returned it hoping to get a new 9800p tuesday or so...

The screenie is from a gf2mx with one bad mem chip...

Did not install a gf driver though... cat is being reactivated installing a raddy again.

Yes. But did not get high vcore at heavily oced/v-modded one

Need a low vcore 28-2,9 Barton

Damn that's a long post, pretty fine overclock too.
