I think there's nothing much to talk about since there's no more improvement nor any new findings with this mobo and its modded bios eh ?

Have to change to a new rig lah like this.

How about the VDD voltage for the nf2 ultra chipset ?

Its not just about ram timing dude. I suspect psu rail have a high fluctuation rate and below recommended value.

How about you power supply rails ?

No i dont think so. Ive pushed my vcore to 2v with no problems.

Maybe in the first place they dont even know what's on earth Soundstorm is.

Using multi x.5 kills the bandwidth.

Yup, selling it as i have new toy right now. NIUHB stepping which is the best Tbred-B on earth that can do 2.5ghz easily.

Locked or unlocked if they are using x.5 multi, it still kills some of the bandwidth.

Yeah, why not try and run 210x10 and compare it with 200x10.5 and see the results.

Using stock Vdd Voltage ? Try 1.7v and see how.

Are u sure ? I think what ure thinking is vcore, its totally different. Vcore = Proc's voltage. Vdd = Nforce2's voltage.

Mine last time stock at 1.6v, the highest i used was 1.8v last time. And i use DIY alu hs + fans to cool it down.

Not sure about the pics, will find it and post it here.

Everyone knows x.5 multi kills the bandwidth. But tictac said that using his D26 Mantarays, 10.5 multi gives extra bandwidth bump.

Double post.

Giving more voltage to the Vdd do improve the stability and gives higher fsb in my part.

Yeah, Tictac D26 Mantarays XT.

Im not sure about the exact values but i'll try to help you guys.

This was done on my nf7 rev2.

vcore : Depends on your proc. Im using AXP Tbred-B NIUHB so i put 1.9v to achieve 2.5ghz. Extra cooling needed bcoz running the vcore at 1.9v makes the processor damn hot. Im using watercooling so i get around 46c full load and idle around 38c.

vdd : 1.6v is stock, depends if u cannot go higher fsb u can increase it 1 notch to 1.7v. Highest i recommend would be 1.8v but u need a good cooling for it.

vdimm : Depends on your ram. Im using Hynix D43 rams, 2.9v max. U can use higher voltage for burn in purpose.

multi : Try to avoid x.5 multi as it would kills the bandwidth except for d26 Mantarays XT from Tictac.

mem timings : usual timings are 2.5-3-3-7, 3-3-3-8, 3-4-4-8. It depends on your ram chipsets so take a peek at the ram chipset to see what chipset they are using.

I'll try to help whenever i can, so ask me about it ok?

From what i interpreted, i think not enough voltage supplied to the proc. Even if u pump more voltage to the vcore, there would be a heat issue since you're using stock heatsink.

It depends also on the ambient temp, the ventilation and other factors also.

It's not the temp that gives u the extra fsb. It depends on the ram chipsets as well.

Yeah, the Logan website do provide lots of usefull information. I start myself with that page also and few others in order to get the best out of my nf7.

Sure can, but u need to run it at 2T. And of course lower overclocking potential since its a double sided ram and there's 3 piece of them.

D26 comes with softmodded L12 built in, so no need do hardmod.

Yeah, u dont need a shim if youre carefull enough and with steady hands.

But they did mention NOT FOR BARTON SERIES rite ? They wont state it if its unecessary.

Dude, Enermax is much better compared to the brands u just mentioned. A hell lot better. Its just because he's using 300w enermax psu which is meant for old skool hardwares. That's why its giving those problems.

The beeping thing, i supposed its because of low voltage rails, high temps or voltage used more than default on the software. About the screen flickering, its nothing to do with the psu at all.

You can check it thru SANDRA, from there u can check ur bios information.
