how do you do that? i cant even lower the HTT

Hello all Sempron64 Owners,

I have a question:

1) I see most of the extreme overclock here has been done on a DFi Nf3 board. Well, i am looking forward to get a PCIe board. Can the sifus here point me to a Nforce 4-4x board that overclocks just as well (or a tad worse)?

2) And what difference are there in terms of overclocking a Sempron 2500+ and 2800+?

A million thanks in advance

1. wats ur budget running sli?


2.act, i would say its depends wat codin u got though... but most of it, wit nice mobo, u can go 50% oc wit no swaet..
sempron2500+ 1.4ghz(7 x 200=1.4ghz) and sempron2800+ 1.6ghz (8 x 200= 1.6ghz) 2800+ got higher multiplier means higher speed can b achived...

Me budget is really low . If i were to go for a SLi setup, S939 would ideally be my choice. Really cash strapped at the moment
So any suggestions?

1 multi less and i really have to get a great board to compensate the overclock loss. So i think i have to get a 2800+ then because i presume the NF4-4x which is a crippled full fledge NF4 would't overclock well in the first place.

1) I would suggest a nVidia 6100 based motherboard instead. I found that they do wonders with extreme HTT speeds. This gives advantage to Sempron with 8x or 7x multi.

2) Technically, both overclocks the same way... but 2500+ may require higher HTT speed to get higher clocks. Actually 2500+ can go high clockspeeds, it's just that it depends on the motherboard which can provide better HTT.

i suggest u get the biostar tforce 6100 board, many ns OC done using tat, and quality oso very gud, i think biostar is slowly emerging as a quality manufacturer
1 multi diff really make diff when u OC to high FSB, 300*7=2100mhz while 300*8=2400mhz, tats a 300mhz diff!and i think most sempron wil reach 300mhz easily, so 2800+ is a gud buy
but if u hav the confident, go for the 2500+, somtimes low multi get u even higher result!

Thanks for the advice A great HTT overclocker at basement price is indeed hard to comeby. So i am set for a 2800+.

As for the board, can anyone recomend me a suitable 6100 board?

Thanks a lot as well I will try to find a Biostar. Another hard to comeby board.

PS: what is NS anyway?

Scouted around the web for this allegedly very overclockable Biostar. Unfortunately it belongs to the 6100-T series for the S939 variant. And there is no T series for S754. Bummer.

lol ya meh?i think u better go LYP try lo
anyway ur celeron d 3.8 stil not enuf meh?y dun save money to get a 939 system or new AM2 system in mid year

Would love to but my board is acting up on me lately

Sigh, back to square one. Dunno wat to get

i was also thinkin ab to get this mobo...

Thanks alot. Where can i get it in LYP?

Heard there is a shop called ATE selling Biostar Tforces.

taken from http://www.short-media.com/review.php?r=300&p=7

it said, Then, Overall HTT Bus Clock = Reference Clock * LDT Multiplier * 2
my HTT bus clock is: 285 * 4 * 2 = 2280Mhz

Ops! it is out of the safety range, the system is safe or not?

i think u will have some stability issues...
try lower down LDT multi to 3.....

s754 HTT bus clock at default only 1800....

i tried to lower to 3, PC bootable but XP failed to logon. With 285, i can run the XP fine, included install the Os, running the games and benchmark for a night...

what mobo u using?
did try to up chipset voltage?

MSI k8n neo3, the vcore is unadjustable...

not vcore but chipset voltage...

you mean the nforce chipset voltage?
