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

210x10 i got tried b4 i think, cant enter windows after tat...get BSOD. maybe i will try 200x11 again to test again. planing to try different bios and see hows the result.

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

using 1.675v...now temp oso high ady when load....if use 1.7v then temp might be higher....without a better hsf later my proc blow lol

owh...

Gkwong,

have u tried and check out the link to the SI-97 ?


Uzairi,

I agree with u, i was running 200 x 9 on my old tbred-a , to me it was much better than having a *.5 at the multi.

now running 200 x 11.5 @ stock heatsink.

maybe when i have the time to change to my WC kit back, wud try and up more... now kinda lazy... BZ DOWNLOADING !!

hehehe....

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

vdd voltage at 1.7v , i think that is kind of high...

1.5v is the stock voltage rite ?

even at stock voltage, the stock heatsink is kinda hot.

maybe to pump it up to 1.7v needs a good HSF, or change i think.

Just my 2 cents.

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.

Kalu x silap, it's TicTac who stated 0.5x multi got lower bandwidth and Merlin who stated 10.5x multi got stability prob. :sigh: Too long oledi .... didn't remember. Pls correct me if i'm wrong.

Sweet...

1.8v , any changes in performance ???

DIY Heatsink ehh ??

I used a P3 copper heatsink for mine, but kinda interfering with the CPU CLIPs

so i took it out and reinstalled the ol HSF...

thinking of getting or making a new one...

U got the pics of ur ol NB HSf uzairi ??



Thanks to you . . . i am not using x0.5 multipliers anymore

staying at 9 only

Sejak tukar opteron nie, asyik lupa aje ye bang ??

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.

got, but the price can buy a Tt big typhoon.


ooo....sry i mixed it up hehe. i am using stock vdd at 1.5v i think. temp at 35-37c idle, load can go to 40c like tat.
btw, raising tis chipset voltage can help to stablise my oc wit high fsb?

so if i use the tictac d26 mantarays wit tis 10.5x does it reli giv xtra bandwitdh? is mantaray xt issit? version d26 the best ar? wanna try it.

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

Yeah, Tictac D26 Mantarays XT.

uzairi, could u tell us ur volt setting of vcore, vdd, vdimm used in your previous abit nf7-s mainboard?

And anything useful information such as do and don't.

this would help other forumer to gain knowledge based on experienced user such as uzairi.

thank u

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?

sigh...yesterday juz tried it. with d26 mantaray xt (cpc on). result exactly same like d27 from abit. can go up to 220x10.5 with 1.75 vcore and 1.7vdd and 2.9v vdimm. but cant boot into winxp, get BSOD. at 210x10.5 oso same cant boot winxp. try with 2.5-3-3-7, 2.5-3-3-8, 3-4-4-8 ram timing oso same.

btw...what setting is recomended for the 'CPU Thermal Throttling'?

so wut is the recommended vcore for a stock cooling like me ? at 1.7vcore load temp can go up to 65c ady....see liao oso not fun...

what is ur current setup gkwong ??

erm... 1.7v @ 65c full load.

stock cooling i wud say 1.6v or 1.65v

Have u decided what HSF ur gonna change to ?

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.

now change back to 1.6v vcore....temp is cooler. i actually decided to get a Tt Big Typhoon coz used SI-97A is more expensive than a new Big Typhoon. but still havent buy it coz doubt cant fit into my casing.

yup...nvr try to go more than 1.75v...but i think if i pump more on it with better hsf, shud be can go higher around 230-240fsb.
