2400+ in 'da house...prelim. results here

[emtp563]

Just got my 2400+ today. This is the first setting I have tried as of yet, I just got this cpu this afternoon. THis is the first setting I have tried (166 x 15)= 2503Mhz



I'm cooling it with a Vapochill. The evaporator temp. is at -8C, cpu @ 1.9v. My 2000+ @ 2.0Ghz, 1.96v was -4c. This chip with out a doubt runs cooler.

I'm running it on a Abit KX7333-R mobo. I don't know the revision, the sticker is on the back of the board and I don't feel like removing the tray. But I flashed it with the newest B6 BIOS.

I assume the multipliers are unlocked for multiples greater than 12.5, but there is only a multiplier option for ">13" in the bios. I cannot choose 13, 14, 14.5, etc. With the ">13" setting, the multiplier reverts to the chips default multiplier of 15. Does anyone know how I can specify the EXACT multiplier? I'm guessing (like everyone else) that connecting the 5th L3 bridge will unlock multipliers 12.5 and below. I'll try that later. I want to see how far I can get on the 15 multiplier first.

Oppainter has a KD7, which is apparently able to manipulate multipliers above 13. The KX7333 apparently is not able to.

I should be able to attain in the neighborhood of 200Mhz FSB, as I am running 1 512Mb module of Corsair XMS3200CL2.

Let me get back to expirimenting here :-) Any comments and/or advice is greatly appreciated. Sorry for the cross-posting, but this is breaking news ;-)

2.5+Ghz amd power looks promessing.

Are you able to bench at that speed? How high can you get it @1.8V? I would never run a Tbred at 1.96v, even not for benching purposes only.

[emtp563]

Yeah, 100% stable at this speed. No crashes yet (except when I tried 2.6Ghz).

Here are a couple more benches. I'm holding off on the memory bandwidth benches, Q3A, and UT2003 benches, as this is not the FSB I want to be at. I'm going to have to unlock this chip to go higher on the FSB. I already tried 2.6Ghz without success. I don't want to go any higher on the vcore for the time being.

I could score a lot more on 3dMark with a higher FSB. This is only at 166Mhz and the Radeon9700 Pro is at STOCK core/mem settings!

Where'd you get yours?

[emtp563]

www.micropro.com I heard newegg.com got theirs in this afternoon.

I think the new Tbreds are diff..... I run my 1600+ @ 2.23v :P

They are. The default voltage is only 1.65v The 2400+ on up are the "B revision" T-Breds. THe "A revision" sucks. I had a TB "A" 2200+, which didn't OC worth a öööö, even @ 2.1v

[xgman]

I have the same rev. 2400 and it is unlocked, as long as your MB supports it.

[emtp563]

Yep, the Abit KX7333 doesn't. Per Oppainter, the Abit KD7 does :-)

[xgman]

The 2400 likes high voltage. 1.9v kicked it up a little and I think that with proper cooling and 3v, then you could see some higher mhz from this cpu. I have to check temps with this air cooling, but that seems to be the key.

[emtp563]

XGman, what speed are you up to? I'm leary on going much above 1.93v on the vcore. My Vapo isn't nearly as good as a Promie. I feel I can get to 2600Mhz easily @ 2.0v.

I'll be busy tonight modding this Lian-Li to accomodate the Vapochill:



The Vapochill case is one of the öööötiest, most poorly designed cases I've ever seen. This Lian-Li is a monster! Light, too. It only weighs about 10lbs.

Maybe a moderator should put a stop to that Marc guy (bot)? He's flooding dead threads with ty and useless casino adds.

hes on a vapo chill
heck i ran my 2400+m @ 1.95v on air with a sp-97 @2.7ghz

this thread is 4 years old dude, i think he has moved on.

but i remember my old 2400 tbred could boot into 2.8ghz. that was excitement back then.

[ChongL]

wtf...2002...I had a 1700+ that ran 2.6 until it started degrading to 2.5...then 2.4....

[Console]

LOL i didnt even check the date as it was @ the top of the page so I responded to it

[ANP !!!]

I m still running a XP 2600 on Stock as my main rig Can u believe it.,

waiting for my new rig to get into action

[mk0r]

1800+ with a Geforce3 is my main rig

[mnewxcv]

wow i thought this was a current thread, i was wondering why sysfailur said "Rarr I hate you! "
