dude... what's your 2500+ stepping?

anyway... let's make a sempron K8 database

Cyclone,

I only set my LDT to auto for a 300MHz HTT, but on some mobo, 3x LDT may be required.

BTW... I believe your stepping should be 0528UPMW... not 0328UPMW

2003 they dun have palermo yet

very very true indeed. what most important is the clockspeed, because the FSB is running at full clockspeed

wah wah... so easily can do 2.7ghz!

palermo rocks!

this palermo E6 is the lil bro of venice

look for any sempron 64 ... it should be the E6 stepping

non64 sempron should be either D0, E0 or E3

exactly

s-754 = single channel
s-939 = dual channel

if it's a Sempron64 ... it sure does support AMD64 technology, regardless any speed it's rated at....

the xbitlabs that you read must've been covering the 32-bit version

BA = D0, E0
BO = E3
BX = E6

exactly

not so soon.... but currently there are s939 sempron, but only to catter OEM pc market only

yup... and a few 3GHz P4s also

in multitasking, P4 is the king... no doubt about that, even P4 had a big advantage in multitasking over Athlon64

for above 300mhz htt set...

LDT bus : Auto
LDT multiplier : x3 (on some nF3 mobo just set Auto)
AGP : 66mhz (67mhz for extra stability in gaming)

try play with different chipset voltage combination

MSI K8MM-V is just nice.... I'm using it on my 2nd rig/sis' rig. I bought it for RM230 last time.

download the new bios manually and use the dos utility to flash
works fine with me

Malaysian, Asus K8N is using what chipset?

why would u need 2T?

2T is 'cheap' lar

First of all... DO NOT RUN AT 2T.
2T mode sucks big time. There are many other ways to push the RAM to run at higher speed besides running at 2T. Just leave it at 1T instead.

redleaf,

Firstly, have you updated the BIOS? E6 runs best with the latest official BIOS.

Since you got an E6 and the best S754 mobo around, we skip 250MHz, and go for 300MHz instead.

First, we need to make sure whether your CH-5 can do 200mhz 2-2-2-5. I think you should know how do do this part, and enable the memtest option. Run memtest85 at Test #5. If you can pass 50 loops, it's okay already. If you cannot pass, just run your ram at 200mhz 2-3-2-6, it's fine enough.

Okay, let's get to the 300MHz FSB thingy.... try out this setting:
Genie BIOS Settings:

FSB Bus Frequency - 300
AGP Bus Frequency - 66mhz
Clock Spread Spectrum - Disabled
LDT Downstream Width - Auto
LDT Upstream Width - Auto
LDT/FSB Frequency - Auto
CPU/FSB Frequency Ratio - 8x


CPU VID Control - 1.4V
CPU VID Special Control - AUTO
Chip Set Voltage Control - 1.60v
AGP Voltage Control - 1.50v
DRAM Voltage Control - 3.10v

DRAM Configuration Settings:

DRAM Frequency Set - 133 (DRAM/FSB:2/03)

Command Per Clock (CPC) - Enable
CAS Latency Control (Tcl) - 2.0
RAS# to CAS# delay (Trcd) - 02 Bus Clocks (03 for better stability)
Min RAS# active time (Tras) - 5 Bus Clocks (set 6 if Trcd=3)
Row precharge time (Trp) - 02 Bus Clocks
Row Cycle time (Trc) - Auto
Row refresh cyc time (Trfc) - Auto
Row to Row delay (Trrd) - Auto
Write recovery time (Twr) - Auto
Write to Read delay (Twtr) - Auto
Read to Write delay (Trwt) - Auto
Refresh Period (Tref) - Auto
Write CAS Latency (Twcl) - Auto
DRAM Bank Interleave - Enabled

(everything else just leave it at auto)

Then try run SuperPi 32M or Prime95.
1. If there is error, you might need to increase the CPU voltage.
2. If you have trouble getting into windows (blue screen etc) try increase the chipset voltage.
3. If you have trouble running 3d applications, set AGP speed to 67MHz and AGP voltage to 1.6v

none at all

i'm running 300mhz htt without divider with my double sided 512MB TCCD at 1T

since you're using sata... make sure you're using nvidia sata controller (no 3 & 4)

don't use the marvell

the reason not to use marvell sata is because the sata port is not 'locked' properly during overclocking.
