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)? notworthy.gif

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

A million thanks in advance blush.gif

1. wats ur budget wink.gif 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 blush.gif . If i were to go for a SLi setup, S939 would ideally be my choice. Really cash strapped at the moment sweat.gif
So any suggestions? notworthy.gif

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.

Thanks for the advice notworthy.gif 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?

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 a lot as well notworthy.gif 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. doh.gif

but mine mobo is s754 and since dual channel dun give a big improvement so no need to upgrade to s939, soon s939 will be out dated soon as will be replaced by a new socket or AM2. that is my opinion... smile.gif

Quite true. S939 will be replaced soon. S754 would go obsolete too. But at least it cost alot less.
