wow, it really works...now its gone
thanks alot

BTW, i'm not sure what is that....will it affect the performance?

the performance wont affect IMHO... haha enjoy it, just a piece of cake

hmm....one more thing
I notice it goes back to 00 after restart...so need to set everytime I boot up?
I try to find inside the bios, but there isn't any such option...

Thanks for the tip there zt_lee, i didnt know bout the tweak there myself.

@evilnickwong . mmm 2.85v-->2.75v?

Personally,after some tweaks and tests, i've got 257fsb @2.75v prime95/fold/3dmark stable. 2x512mb Hynix DT d43, MAM on, Performance= standard. CL 2.5-4-4-8. Vagp= 1.6v. Trying to hit the magical 260fsb.

Anyways, The AsusLiveUpdate doesn't work with SP2, oh well

@Hornet, well i think u got to manually set the parameter everytime

ya.. i think u got to set it manually everytime restart

this tweaking software is quite good, u can disable PAT oso if u are using the 875 like me,in order to get higher fsb...

currently with my 2x512 tccd, i got 275 with all the memtest no error...

sorry...noob question.. where to check whether AGP is propelly locked?

Well my usual settings if I'm OC-ing are to set to 255MHz FSB, default vcore, MAM on, PAM standard, 1:1, 2.5-3-4-6, default vagp, vdimm 2.85v.
That setup is prime/3dmark/memtest stable. But the moment I take a step higher in FSB, prime goes to hell after less than a minute. Increasing vagp and vcore doesn't help, bumping RAM speeds down doesn't either. And yeah, the AGP/PCI is set to 66/33.

zt_lee: What are the other settings for in that little tweak utility you posted? And do changes take effect immediately? I never knew you could change timings from Windows.

of cos take effect immediately, u dont have to restart pc...
about the tweak utility setting, i am not sure which setting is the best.. paiseh bout that..try it out urself
all the best and post ur oc result after and bfore using this utility

Juz to note here, under the Performance mode in tw865, In theory, it should be able to enable/disable PAT. In the Case of Enabling it(865p families), and when it's double checked with CTIAW, it will only show Partially Enabled(not fully enabled), unlike the 875p which has Full PAT by default.

My point is tat,don be fooled thinking PAT is 100% on by juz enabling Peformance Mode in tw865. It's in fact, partially enabled

Don't know about other manufacturers, but I know that for a P4P800, PAT is always enabled if you're running at 200MHz FSB (i.e. not OC-ed). The moment you bump it up to even 201, PAT gets disabled. As far as I've read, the Performance Acceleration Mode only attempts to tighten RAM timings which means it's only useful with TCCD or BH-5. I know this for a fact because if I leave RAM timings to SPD, but set PAM to Turbo, my old BH-5 RAMs would default to 2-2-2-5.

The only way I've seen for getting PAT above 200MHz FSB is with bigtoe's BIOS mod. More details at the ABXZone forums.

I'd like to ask about the voltage for core and DRAM

1. in the bios, it's set to auto...does it means it'll automatically adjust for stability when I oc? Or better to manualy set it

2. I once tried set in the bios, vcore to 1.5875, but in Windows, Asus Probe detect it at 1.64V Which reading is accurate....is the BIOS setting there set it to absolutely 1.58, or it's just a rough figure?

3.whats the safe margin for vcore and also the ram

thx

1. Automatic, it means default voltage, depends on ur cpu itself, 1.525v or 1.550v. U hav2 manually adjust to find the sweet spot when overclocking.

2. Tat's the voltage during 'idle' mod. Try stressing the cpu by folding or prime and the voltage will drop to 'load' probablt to around 1.55v

3. Try to keep below 1.65 if ur on Aircooling. Aso apply some good thermal compund

the fightcat master has spoken....

hye my intel fella.. actually this my first time in this OC thing.. here is my first attempt after exploring this forum.. It's very good guide in Overclockers United..

I would like to hear some suggestion about the VCore that i applied for the processor.. Is it to high?.. Also i'm wondering if i can push it up any higher?.. Ur comment is really appreciated..

is it 1.8V applied for Vcore too much of risky guyz?!.. Im running my computer since this morning with dat configuration..

did overclock the proc too much will reduce their lifetime sifu?..

yup.. that is sure. But need not worry if u oc it wif dfault vcore

somebody help me here..

proc : Prescott 2.4A oc to 3.43 (191*18)
Mobo : Abit AI-7
RAM : Kingston KVR Bt-D43

highest fsb : 191
RAM Timings : 3-4-4-8
VCore : 1.425
VDimm : 2.8

y cannot boot up on 200fsb..? already tried loose timings, tight timings..

I have a question,about my P4 2.6C on Abit IC7-G mobo using Apacer DDR333 (Infineon chipset)with default timing 2.5-3-3-7.I got try to o/c my RAM from 166Mhz to 218Mhz with CPU:DRAM=1:1 ratio.My CPU is 218 FSB.Result is stable after i run on benchmarks and also playing games.But another thing is i am not so understand about my RAM that it cant even reach 200Mhz with CPU:DRAM=5:4 while my CPU FSB is 250.It wont be stable in gaming but stable in benchmark.The pc just hanged when the game started about 5 to 10 minutes.Sometimes no hanged.My Vdimm default at 2.6v.But i have tried to increased the Vdimm to max 2.8 but also happenned the same thing.Then i put back to 245 FSB then everything run smooth in benchies and gaming.Even 246FSB will cause pc hanged also sometime.SAD...

I wish i can go above 250 FSB but i know my Apacer RAM is giving me a limitation.Can anyone help me in this?10q...
