xde pitih lah bro... 955BE is almost $100 more expensive than a 555BE...

kalu bagi free mau lah... better than sempron 140 atleast...

btw, i'm gonna stick w/ this gd70 till d day i switch to laptop... kinda sad coz i wish to retire w/ dfi but no ddr3 atx available here...

@ sis xixo,

makin ari makin pro... keep up d gud work sis...

nice rig there mate.

ya bios is kinda old, f7 was great for my x2 before, but they say f3l is solid for real quad core. do give it a try...

i always like to encourage htt oc eventhou there's not much performance gained thru it. and i know u have a BE chip there, some mite say why bothered while u have unlocked cpu multi. u can just simply crank up d cpu, htt (if needed) or even d cpu-nb multi & whack 'em w/ volts to make 'em stable, as simple as that. but by doin so (playin w/ htt), users tend to know how to make d best outta their components (clock speed, ram & cpu-nb). i'm not askin u to try insane htt oc like 3xx or higher, but i reckon a 250 htt oc or slightly higher/lower won't hurt seriously.



cputweakin:

1. disable those power saving feature as mentioned by sir antonio (c1e, c&q).
2. set ram divider @ 1333/1066 (from what i remember fxt doesn't like 1600 that much)
3. set cpu clock 200~300MHz (play w/ cpu multi only) higher than stock w/o touchin any voltage.
4. prime it (blend test), if stable, go higher (again higher multi). if not, increase vcore. keep repeatin until temp & volt is outta comfort zone (load temp > 55, vcore > 1.4/1.45v for me for 24/7 setup)
5. 965BE should be able to do 3.7/8GHz for 24/7 (that if u need that much of processin power)


ram tweakin:

1. set htt multi & cpu-nb @ 8x, cpu multi @ 13/14, vnb & vhtt @ 1.3v
2. set major timing @ 8-8-8-x-x (refer to timing table of ya ram in cpu-z), it is d loosest i'd go. cas 6/7 is preferred but not a realistic target for value unless ya ram is d9/elpida inside.
3. use memtest (dos based, press esc, 1 > 3 > 8 *credits to sir antonio for enlightenin me) to test d ram by setting higher htt, if ur on 1333 ram divider, u can try to play w/ htt 220~250, should be doable but depends on what chippies are used on ya corsair value. voltage wise i'd wouldn't advise to go above 1.9v for long hour of stress.
4. if memtest ok, go into windows & test w/ prime (blend). add vdimm bit by bit, by usin aod can save u some time to reboots.
5. timing wise i couldn't help much as i'm not so gud in ram tweakin. u can use cpu-tweaker to adjust main/sub timings but i'd say leave to main timing alone coz most of d time they dun like to be adjusted "on d fly" especially when u try to tighten 'em.




cpu-nb (a.k.a) imc tweakin:

1. once u know d mileage of ya ram, try to find d max cpu-nb (a.k.a imc) freq by just using d same setting from ram tweakin. increase imc multi by
2x/3x higher. prime (again, blend test) it, if stable, increase again, if not, add juices. unlike cpu tweakin, imc mileage discovery could be abit tricky. beside addin vimc, addin vcore mite help sometimes.
2. c3 should be able to do 2.8~3.0GHz (or more) for 24/7, voltage wise not so sure but i think should be safe ~1.4v (+/- 0.5v)


rojak tweakin (cpu clock + ram & imc freq):

1. now u know d max clock ya chip can take, max freq d ram (so do timing) & d imc can handle, try to find d sweet spot for all 3. as simple as that (sounds simple but not to me).
2. try to have more patience.

that's what i can think off now, otais pls correct me if i missed out anything/misleadin somewhere. i'm old & not havin enuf sleep, that's why i'm blur most of d time... especially in office...

olang muda mah... d hunger for challenges is there, unlike us bro, dah pencen (for me) or ampir pencen (for u but i doubt so )...

ajaran sesat detected...

790fxt is a solid board, hard to kill unless kill it by bios...

those becoz of natural calamities doesn't count lah bro...

btw, may i know what batch ya 955 c3 is...

thx bro, but isn't it 0929 way too early for a c3???


name samaran yg berbagai2... biotek lah, biopening lah...

waa, information at ya fingertips ah bro? so advance...
just havin a wild thought of buyin 955, but check wallet got bills ta'pon + kad plastik to pay...

anybody want a asus 1950pro & xtreme music...

pls sapot so i got additional fund for my new chip 9555... else i'll go sempron only...

got free lunch everyday meh? ofcoz not...

supposedly got $100 from buy & sell this week, but it goes to d bills...

no problem w/ that, 7750be is cool especially on stock/lite oc...

bebarang spare mah... no harm sellin...

yg baru RM180 (kucingfight sellin), mine is used but extremely new. to be honest this is d newst lookin 2nd hand stuff i've ever bought... if sound almost equal to xonar then i mite keep it. haven try, just collected this lunch break...

correct me if i'm wrong, isn't it cold bug referrin to chip unable to boot under certain temp? this applicable to agena's era iirc...

that's d plan while waitin for 555BE become affordable...

gd 70 bios is richer, especially ram tweakin part. suite u well sis... fxt is solid too, i rike d 8+2 pwm & 2 oz copper pcb... never try to unlock cores on gd-70 but fxt did really great. i think both are almost d same, gd-70 win in bios richness while fxt slightly better in material + award bios (thou msi use award like ami bios )... tough call, but i'd go for whichever cheaper if price diff is quite big.

with this kinda paria ram, sp 32m no hope liao...

some teaser, fresh from sls...

not really impressive coz voltage needed is kinda high consider it's not yet fully stable...

secret...

pm u later...

bro, it's a $15 top up from my x4 810... whether worth it or not it remains to be seen...

hopefully i can see 4.0GHz prime stable, then i can happily fully retired ledi...

$165, not so cheap but left me no choice as i just sold off my chip this afternoon.

initially wanna buy sempron 140 but when i saw only about 10 pieces available in whole sls i couldn't resist much...

laa... patutlah... ingatkan sape tadi...

1.39v restart after 1 hour +... hmm... not a gud sign...

need to try harder, especially dealin w/ acc value for each core...

bro, can check w/ u how many volt needed for 4.0GHz stable? havin some hard time to tame d chip...

thx bro... gotta take me sometimes to figure out d ways to make it run as a proper c3...

lemme work it out on d clock speed 1st, i'll update accordingly... aod keep on hangin here & there... PITA...
