why most of nf7-s v2.0 users here use pci sound card such as creative brand instead of the nvidia soundstorm?
is soundstorm not good enough? what the cons of this onboard sound? thank u. |

QUOTE(Mr_47 @ Jul 10 2006, 12:13 PM) mine is safe up to 4 years with propper air cooling and with 1.85...! thank u. if that so, i will overvolt a little bit until the 2.2 GHz clockspeed stable enough. Of course I have to priming and stress the cpu in order to check the stability issue.  I still yet to get more juice from this old mainboard. |

Mind To Share with us ? maybe i should buy CM Hyper 6+ or ThermalTake Big Typhoon.. any recommendation? My spec is: 1. AMD Barton 2500+ (unlocked version) running at 1.8 Ghz 2. Abit NF7-S v2.0 3. 2 x 256 MB Apacer DDR266 CL2 and 1 x 512 MB Kingston DDR266 CL2.5 -> total of 1 GB RAM in dual channel mode. 4. Palit geforce 6800GS 256 MB 256 bit AGP card 5. 80 GB WD 7200 rpm 8 mb cache and 20 GB Quantum Fireball Plus 7200 rpm 2 mb cache 6. Benq DVD-RW 7. Samsung CD-ROM 8. PSU Coolermaster Realpower 450 Watt 9. Normal casing. 10. 17" Samsung SyncMaster 753DFX CRT Monitor 3dMark03 score --> 10616 3dMark05 score --> 4981 I think if i overclock the cpu to 3200+ speed and change the RAM to DDR400 speed, the score will increase a few notch.

DDR266 i doubt it wont be able to raise till DDR400 with stability. moreover he is using campur-campur ram. i think if u wan u can sell ur current ram and get 2x512mb ddr400 ram same brand better still. |

erm...
i wud say, ur RaMS shud be traded - in or changed to DDR 400 and of course ur heatsink. i think someone is selling Thermalright SI-97 in the garage sale... not a bad heatsink Or u can try SLK - 800A if u are not into heatpipes.. very subjective If me, i wud go for a DDR400 , and SI-97 or SLK-800A GOOD LUCK.. |

QUOTE(lighter @ Jun 29 2006, 08:38 AM) yea.. yesterday i just flashed a modded BIOS by tictac How about the VDD voltage for the nf2 ultra chipset ? D26 Split Fire ----------------- I think after flash i can't even clock to 2200MHz vcore 1.85 200MHz x 11 vdimm 2.9 MT 3-6-6-11 Previously I use Corsair TwinX 2x256MB 2-3-3-6 run pretty stable! This Kingston HyperX really disappoint me  QUOTE(kulus @ Jun 30 2006, 12:33 PM) my old nf7-s also will make that sound when oc over it limit ot something not stable with ram timing Its not just about ram timing dude. I suspect psu rail have a high fluctuation rate and below recommended value. QUOTE(lighter @ Jun 30 2006, 01:28 PM) the bee poo pee poo sound is very low and slow.. its not like normal beep. ya.. previously my processor can run very low temperature with default clock.. it was about 38-42c on idle.. after 1 year it raised to 42-46c.. even clean up also same.. recently i've added a CPU fan on my silent tower.. now it dropped to 40-44.. haih... who wanna buy my Kingston HyperX KHX3200AK2/1 (2x512MB 2-3-2-6 v2.6)? i sell you all cheap cheap lah.. regret bought this RAM How about you power supply rails ? QUOTE(Radeon @ Jul 2 2006, 02:16 AM) from your post i reckoned is voltage problem becoz of the high vcore, it happens to me once when i push it to 1.9V, because i din touch my ram timings No i dont think so. Ive pushed my vcore to 2v with no problems. QUOTE(coolblade @ Jul 10 2006, 12:53 PM) why most of nf7-s v2.0 users here use pci sound card such as creative brand instead of the nvidia soundstorm? Maybe in the first place they dont even know what's on earth Soundstorm is.is soundstorm not good enough? what the cons of this onboard sound? thank u. QUOTE(zahri @ Jul 19 2006, 02:15 PM) someone told me that too... 0.5 multiplier is not so nice, kinda use up some resources , i dunt know... but for sure i am running at multiplier 9. Using multi x.5 kills the bandwidth.now at stock speed, waiting for new tubes to come then can go back to OCING. |

bro uzairi,
saw ur thread... selling ur Tbred-B i see.. it must be one good processor to be able to do 2.5ghz:D what if the original multiplier is already set to 12.5 or 9.5 ( for locked processors ) does it still kill the bandwith ? |

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. |
