true unless you wanna do encoding or graphic work maybe getting am2 is a wrong choice

if you're from S939 probably it's a 'poor choice'

from S754/S-462... maybe not

tell us ur setting la.. or maybe u can try the beta bios..
i want to try but no free time right now..

FSB : 250
HTT Mul : 3
vCpu : 1.35 ( but CPUz show 1.184v only )
vDimm : 1.9v
DDR Base : 4-4-4-12 1T (by auto is 5-5-5-15 2T)
Bios : update to 320Beta
and 203 also been try same resulf happen

does i need to change to other ram better??

corsair or kingston? or stick with patriot ?

lol did u refer the setting i gave earlier.. maybe vcpu not supply right...
and again what's base ram u put? 533?

250*10 = 2500ghz (cpu speed)

DDR base 533: 2500/8 = 312.5 ~ 625DDR

DDR base 667: 2500/6 = 416.6 ~ 833DDR (sure ur ram not capable do this with v1.9v)

divider are vary u need to refer the chart that supply by soulfly..
AM2 oc different than s939 n s754..

the vcore i put at auto setting and i got also try put at 1.365v

i put my to DDR2 667 << maybe this is the problem

so any DDR2 667 ram able don 800DDR? or if the mobo can supply enuf Vdimm then mostly value ram still able do it??

i think we need >2.2v to get 800DDR..
u try put 533 base drr first... and vdimm auto..
the cpu u can increase until 1.5.. i've tried before but the temp quite high.. need better cooler to attempt more..

other thing is.. normally X2 3800+ can max 2.6.. so 250fsb should near the ceiling.. and it's par to 5000+.. just try it slowly..

i think i wil try using using DDR533 and 250FSB with lower multiple try can pass 250FSb onot 1st

i also using stock cooling , must try it slow and slow ~ lately quite buzy , later will tell u result

what type of heatsink that am2 use?...is it same with opteron?...enybody have change the heatsink?...please recommend me...wanna change the heatsink soon...

Zalman 9500 AM2 edition
ArticCooling Freezer64 Pro <--- best bang for the buck
Thermaltake Mini Typhoon
Scythe Mine

these heatsinks can be fit without any mod

any other heatsink that uses clip like OEM AMD heatsink also compatible.

Try
FSB = 250
multi = 10x
HT multi = 3x
Vdimm = default
DDR divider = DDR533 (or whatever the BIOS call it)
Timing = default

with this setting, your ram shouldn't be the one holding back. if not stable you might want to increase the cpu voltage.

did u know which shop selling mini typhoon?

So far I also cannot pass 250FSB. Last stable result was:
FSB: 246
Mult: 11x
HTT: 4X
DDR: 533 (CPU/9)
Vcore : 1.425
Vmem: Stock
but load was 67C so now on stock speeds

not sure.... but i think some forumers sell them at bulk section

Update: Today just sent back my item to shop, proc and motherboard. Then they're found my proc dead. Now they're change 1-1 a new proc but still not test yet. Need format my harddisk first.

thanks bro...oledi order TT mini typhoon with niclasteoh...maybe will get it next month...

ikan,
nasib can change the cpu..im waiting patiently for your setup.

anyway for Asus m2ne people..i got a friend working in Asus.I will ask him to look in this issue regarding vdimm.

errr can any one give me a link that say ddr2800 need 2.2-2.4v to run???

dunno where to find

thk a lot ...

hope it solve quickly~

Some Team RAM need ablut 2.0-2.2V to ram at DDR2 800

Team DDR2 800 1.95-2.20V

Asus Problem Discussion

Patriot DDR2 800 2.1V @@

you can run ddr800 at lower voltage depends on the chips and how tight the timing is.

This post has been edited by soulfly: Aug 17 2006, 09:14 AM

if i get at team DDR2 800 with timing 4-4-4-12

but i because my mobo cant supply the voltage it need and i need the run at loose timing

what point i get this ram ~

hope Asus can take note of their bios problem ~
