i think he mmeans Ghz ---> performance rating thing (3000+, 3200+,...)

since on S939 its 1.8ghz X 5/3 ---> 3000 im guessing its clockspeed X 5/3?
nah i think im wrong tongue.gif

yyeah i know the DAGF = Infinity
i meant comparing those with the Ultra Infinity (with the NF4 Ultra chipset)

not sure which to get yet sweat.gif
selling your DAGF? brows.gif

do u think there'll be any difference in OCing between the Ultra and the DAGF?
since i wont be using the SATA2 or IEEE anyway sweat.gif

haha, cant wait till december man

nah, wont be using SLI either

yeay, just got a NF4 Infinity biggrin.gif

what's the lowest "acceptable" cpu & htt multiplier when testing how high the htt can go?
i mean, no fun setting 4x cpu and 1x htt yah sweat.gif

manage to boot at 345htt with 7x cpu and 3x htt multi

no problem at all with KVR, especially if you're not overclocking at all
but of course flash it to the latest bios after you're got it running

i just got my dfi system, now so confused with the fsb:dram multiplier

i'm running 300htt x 8 currently but when is set my divider to
1/2 -- runs the memory at 150 (this one's normal)
2/3 -- memory ar 200 (ddr400 normal)
3/4 -- memory at 218 (shouldn't it be 300x3/4=225 ?)
7/10 -- memory at 300 ( no idea why but it boot to memtest)

other multiplier wont even boot to the memtest, the wierdest i coud say is the 7/10 which runs ar ddr600 but i didnt bother to finish the mem test coz  it's impposible for my ram

any help is welcomed, sorry i'm noob in amd o/c .....  blush.gif
*
7/10?
shouldnt that be 1:1 instead?
erm..maybe a typo, ask other Ultra-D users

what are u trying to do first of all?
if you're looking for your proc's highest clock, just set the divider at 2:1 so you'll be testing your cpu only
if you're testing your rams then set it to 1:1 and start from a lower HTT

set your HTT to 240 then and FSB : DRAM to 1:1
change the cpu multi to 9X since the fsb is so low

btw isnt the LDT multi your HTT multi?
then it should be between 1-5
8X should be your cpu multi

if you're using a 3000+ as in your sig, your proc is limited to a 9X multi
10X for 3200+ and so on

the higher HTT would give a better performance, but its nothing noticable
for benching only la tongue.gif

CPU speed = HTT X multi (300 X 8)

as for the ram dividers, lets wait for someone with a Lanparty to explain it, mine's kinda different in the bios

btw with the 7/10 did u try getting into windows and using cpuz or something to verify?

then lower your HTT to about 280 with that divider or till u can enter windows and check
might be a bug

wah....... thx for veryfying for me dude

2 x1gb, chipset infenion BE-5, timing 3-4-4-8 1T, vdimm 2.6. now running 210Mhz

best can achieve is 2.5-3-3-7 1T at 200Mhz

i tried 220 but cant pass memtest, how much voltage should i feed the ram? how abt the mobo chipset voltage?
*
aiyak so low ar, was kinda excited with babyelf's screenie biggrin.gif
just bump it to 3.0vdimm or something, definately wont kill the rams
doubt any more than that will give a boost, but u can try it out la

i set my chipset to 1.6v, dont seem to have any improvement above that
perhaps the lack of cooling

hey dude,

how ur Smart Guardian is doing ?

mine doesnt work at all with my NF4 Infinity.....

wrong temp detection..... it shows negative value !

i've been using nvidia monitor so far, cause Smart Guardian gave me some extra low readings too (idle was like 15C or something laugh.gif )
guess it doesnt work sweat.gif

umm....first thing if u did not know yet, when u raise your CPU's HTT, your rams will be raised together
i'm guessing your rams are causing it to be unstable since u said u didnt change the multiplier for that
plus the Mushkin Green Line are pretty crappy... sweat.gif

think u didnt read the proper overclocking guides, am i right?
well first thing u do is lower the multi for your rams
i believe in the page where u set the timings there's an option for DDR400, DDR333, DDR266 and so on
by default it's DDR400 if your rams are, set it to something lower like DDR333 or lower

btw all these stuff are really basic...so pls read up on it
since i'm in a good mood, here are some links, these are probably all you'll need to know

have u updated your bios?

it might be some kinda protection thing too
if it detects that your settings are totally unstable, it'll set it back to the default settings
just my guess, dont take this as a fact tongue.gif

so its now locked as default setting all the time?? how to unlock it?? or i forgot to enable something in the bios once i clear cmos, wat r the thing?? i checked few times oreli..

All by default:
CPU voltage - 1.36v
RAM Timing - CL2.5-4-4-8@
DRAM - 2.52v
*
as i've asked above, have u updated your bios?
the CMOS layout will be different with some other options

read the links i gave above, thats all u should need

well, tq so much for your advice and the link bro tongue.gif ...my problem solved already after i flash the new bios update..by the way, what's the different between removing the CMOS battery and clear the CMOS setting? cool.gif

no prob, guess it was a problem with the old bios after all

PCB Revision  A

File  CK84D811.zip
Size 294,468 bytes
Description 1. fix IDE channel 2 access mode issue.remove CPU temp (outside) item.
2. Change DRAM configuration item value.
3. CPU voltage 1.55~1.85 one step 250mv.
4. add chipset fan control 90%, 70% and 60% 

i downloaded this bios, n extracted it. There are 2 bios which is the same as this one, but the file size is different..

did u bother reading the link titled How to flash BIOS at the top left of the bios download page? wink.gif
