what do u mean by that ??

to FEED ur HUNGRY VOLTAGE SYSTEM. ?

By FEeding it more voltage what do we gain ??

by feeding more voltage into chipset,
u can push fsb further

sometimes when you reach max fsb without any voltage to the vdd(chipset voltage), u cant go futher....but adding maybe 0.1 or 0.2 volts u can go higher

it depends relaly on your rams wether they are able to go to that level.

but with all hardware, more voltage leads to shorter lifespan

ooo....now we got the answer!

so by increasing the Chipset voltage,

it will increase voltage to NB and SB ?

i think it only increase NB voltage. tats why Abit put a fan on it!

by increasing voltage to the chipset..which is the Northbridge, it will help u achieve that mhz u want to squeze out.

try achieving maximum fsb stable under prime, increase vdd voltage, and pump 2-3 more mhz..it should be stable....(this is theory ..i dono how much would you be able to get out of your board..try yourself)

and better looking for better cooling for your northbridge and southbridge.southbridge also very very hot

southbridge i dono got effect or not
but put heatsink also there
for northbridge, a cm blue ice will be enough.
else u can get teh zalman heatsink for 25 bucks. not sure whats the name and use 40mm fan on it

Hi there,

What should I do to OC this system?:

AMD Barton 2500+/1.8Ghz Unlocked with Stock Fan
Abit NF7-S rev 2.0 (Bios D27)
Apacer 256MB DDR266 x 2 (dual channel)
Nvidia Riva TNT2
Seagate 40GB PATA 7200RPM
Casing + Psu 400Watt Ayam Brand


I prefer not to do any physical modd to the mobo. It is too risky for me. I prefer to use the original Bios.

I just want to fully utilized my unlocked Barton. I need suggestion on RAMs, and PSU.


Thanks


BTW. is anyone selling mobile Barton???

i think for unlock barton it can do well at 2.4Ghz depend your heatsink and ddr400 ram

i think you can get 200x12 abt 1.85 vcore

Apacer 256MB DDR266 x 2 (dual channel)

erm.... DDR266,

maybe u cud try and get ddr400...


MY southbridge already has an alu heatsink installed on it....

My Northbridge heatsink has been replaced with a 40mm heatsink and fan...



mayeb i cud try increasing the chipset voltage to stabilize the high FSB.

thanks.

ur ram is bottleneck for ur system.try to use better ram(good chipset)

aiya...ur proc so good...but with a slow ddr266 ram...pull it down....
find a ddr400 ram with good chip 1st then oni try oc ur system. coz if u raise ur fsb to high, ur ram will coz trouble.
btw...ur graphic card.....hmm...

old skool graphic card

the ram will surely bring it down...

get a new pair of DDR 400

yup change to ddr400 and then push your proc to 2.2GHz or higher. but your gc...find a better one

Ok. What is the good ddr400.


Apacer or Kingston? Corsair expensive laa..


Ok AGP I can find one.. no problem..

How about power supply?.

if value ram,any brand should be ok but must be overclockable chipset like BH5,BH6,D43

better get branded true-power power supply at least 400w.more better

if ur into overclocking ur rams. get a good one, like techno fanatics said,

find a good VAlue ram with GOOD CHIPS.. SAMSUNG TCCC, UCCC , for the D43 , get a BT-D43 or DT-D43

if u have the budget. go for performance ram...

for PowerSupply,

i wud reccomend to get something higger than 350watts.

I read somewhere in ABIT NF7-S Manual, the minimum requirements for the mobo is 350watts. so u can get a 420 wattts or 450 watts truepower

GOOD LUCK

dude any new bios?

i think no new bios ady...the board considered old ady...no more improvement can be made oso...except some other modders mod new bios for us.
