eh.... i haven't post any OC result eh?

currently running default on my new beloved DFI.... not yet oc... it's late already

same with mine... I just scrap off that 'glue' and pencil it.

be careful not to scrap off the metal point

ikan_semilang : how about cooling? maybe the temp is holding back

anyway.... tested some DDR800 divider action on my DFI (current TForce550 bios does not officially support DDR800 divider for single core procesors)....

Team Xtreem DDRII-667 CL3
SuperPi 1M - DDR1000 CL5-5-5-13-2T @ 1.8V



I only used penknife

The bus speed should be in the same section as CPU setting.

Your cpu default multiplier is x10... there should be no problem.

bios update will solve the problem. try downloading the latest bios.

no... dual core doesn't have any effect on SuperPi calculation ... it's just a single threaded task

just to share....

3000+ @ 312x9, 1.575V (stock cooling)
DFI Infinity UltraII-M2
Memory divider DDR-400

SuperPi 32M


as for now I'm still trying to get the best out of my processor before doing further testing for my RAM.

312x9 @ 1.575v (bios set)
stock cooling

a64 3000+ .......................... around rm280-rm290
dfi infinity ultraii-m2 ............. around rm415-rm450
1gb teamxtreem ddr2 ........... around rm550
7300gt 128mb ddr3 .............. around rm330-rm380
160gb sata2 hdd .................. around rm220-rm250
dvd burner .......................... from rm120
enermax fma 460w .............. from rm290

but still... the BIOS flash wont let u have higher Vdimm options.

nothing much you can do with the very little Vdimm. even I don't feel enough with 2.5Vdimm option on my DFI.

Normally, casing comes with power supply, not power supply comes with casing... lol!

... and no, Enermax FMA is just a power supply.

good combo

except for XP-90C ... you will need Thermalright AM2 RM Rev.B to make it fit on your board. the XP90-C bracket wont work.

ah fong : you are greedy... that's high already. better cooling might help. or higher voltage.

try burn-in lor. use cpu burn-in and stress the cpu for hours.... minimum 8hrs.

anyway..... my 3000+ can default speed 1800mhz at 1.2v

ah... it's nothing big actually. it's just that 6100-AM2 bios memory timing options is limited if you compare with the TF500-series.

TF500-series is quite 'DFI-alike'.

I would suggest Corsair XMS2 6400C5 .... there might be 80% chance of getting Micron D9GMH.

XMS2 6400C3 confirm Micron, but it's much more expensive.

refer to my post earlier.... u need to use Thermalright special AM2 retention module kit Rev.B in order to use xp-90c.... and the retention kit is not easy to find.

fine tuning the RAM will probably difficult since the timing options are just basic if you're gonna do extensive overclocking to the RAM

anyway.... just found out that my cpu can go 2200MHz with just 1.2v



...and look at the HTT also above 1000MHz, no stability issue so far

Some updates: This is pretty much the highest speed I can get with just 1.2V cpu voltage. Will do some quick burn-in afterwards and see whether I can increase another few more MHz.



My previous Corsair667 was using Elpida chips.

Check out LYN DDR2 thread... I think I put my setting somewhere in there.

2.9ghz Sempron is about equal to 2.8ghz Athlon64 in SuperPi.

I think for AM2, cache is very not important because the bandwidth provided by DDR2.

The price between X2 3600+ and X2 3800+ is a lot different, it's like around RM100 more or less.

allenultra : i heard somewhere in XS forum that someone had multiplier issues with TF6100.

as for TF550, the latest BIOS update has already fix it, can use any multiplier already.

as with 754 and 939, all AMD that supports Cool n Quiet have unlocked multis (downwards)

have u tried the latest BIOS?

i know older BIOS does not have multiplier selection, and cas latency too!

hm.... isn't that TF550 bios u shown?

ah..that's weird.

old bios got... new bios don't have.

25'C is very low

CoreTemp also showing the same temperature?
