As far as I know... the current MSI K9N Neo 550 motherboard do not have multiplier selection in the BIOS... maybe future BIOS update will enable that.

Overclocking AM2 is just the same as overclocking 754 and 939. The basic is whenever you overclock, make sure the hypertransport speed does not exceed 2000mhz

Hypertransport (2000mhz) => HT bus x LDT multi x 2
Clockspeed = HT bus x multiplier (or FID in some cases)

hmm.... I think it's just the same la, it's just that Sempron had lower multiplier and clockspeed, as well as smaller cache. Which Sempron were you talking about.... 2800+ or 3000+? Both are rated at 1600MHz if I'm not mistaken.

For AM2 processors, divider is DDR against clockspeed.

Check out this table for Athlon64 dividers, Sempron might applicable as well. Not sure where the original source came from, but thanks to knacky from XS forum for posting it up earlier.



All AM2 processors run on dual channel.

no offence but, probably you need to do more research and more reading factual stuffs instead of rumours and news, or just purely using your own theoretical ideas.

1. Why do you keep stressing about DDR800? you don't need DDR800 to run an AM2 rig. DDR667 is fine enough.... heck even DDR533 is compatible as well.

2. Getting S939? You must be joking. by the end of the year (Dec 31).... it will be EOL already, if you haven't read the news. Smart buyer would either go for AM2, or if they're rich enough they might just go for Conroe.... not S939 (those who are already on S939 is a different story).

3. How mature is AM2? Mature enough that nobody complains as for now. AM2 is K8 technology as well, just the same as S754 and S939, no difference except for the implementation of DDR2 memory controller. If you're saying AM2 is not mature, that might as well as saying S939 or S754 not yet mature. Motherboard chipsets? AM2 runs with nForce4 quite well, that's the option if they feel not really confident with nForce500-series. DDR2 not mature? Come on..... DDR2 has been around for quite some time. DDR is yesterday... and soon it will meet the same fate as SDRAM. At least DDR2 is much cheaper than DDR nowadays.

4. Future technology? What future technology are you talking about? If something is already here, it's not the future anymore.

5. And one last thing... if you wait till AM3 release.... maybe S939 has no more resale value already.... just like AMD K6, Pentium III etc. Those who needs to sell their S939 rig probably lost a lot.

Oh ya... no flamming, just my 2 cents as well.

bro...care to share us your specs?

budget below RM400 = Biostar Tforce 550 is the current best option. Do not get Biostar Tforce 6100-AM2.... the bios sucks. The only downside to Tforce 550 is that the Vdimm max out at 2.2V.

budget around RM400-RM500 = Any ASUS AM2 should be okay. Or if can wait, DFI Infinity Ultra-M2 should be the best choice.

any budget higher than that suka hati....

didn't know M2N-E only has 1.95Vdimm max .... you should've gotten Tforce 550 instead, at least Vdimm is max at 2.2V

don't trust the website. on the review the bios supports up to DDR2-800.... and overclocking the ram depends on the memory controller (cpu) not motherboard

share your AM2 setup lah.... i'm gonna add to the list

bro... i only see black

obasan type... lol!

i guess the fair is just to 'alert' about the pricedrops ...lol!

any M2N-E user that hates the Vdimm limit? time for some Vdimm mod... lol!

http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/showpo...20&postcount=22

both is just the same.

MSI K9N Neo will do just fine I guess....

or Biostar 6100-AM2 if you like built-in graphics

* u mean MSI K9N SLI Platinum?

anyway.... don't have much comment on both mobo, but currently the ABIT KN9 SLI's BIOS is not stable enough.... had issues with certain RAM modules.

I used to have this problem. I'm not pretty sure how did I solve the PCI lock issue.... but I guess BIOS flash helps. You can get the latest one (Bios 703) here: http://www.lejabeach.com/Biostar/6100-550/N5taa703.rar

This BIOS so far allows me to get past 285mhz HTT limit and locks my PCI bus to 33mhz.

what vcore did u use for 2.7ghz?

http://lejabeach.com/Biostar/6100-550/6100550bios.html

Anyway... what stepping is your Manila?

This post has been edited by soulfly: Jul 26 2006, 07:53 PM

not bad eh...... 2.7ghz @ 1.35v

my 0620 SPAW not that good.... default voltage can run 2.7ghz too (3dmark) but not prime stable.

did u add extra volt for chipset or hypertransport?

This post has been edited by soulfly: Jul 26 2006, 09:11 PM

i would say 2.4ghz sempron

clockspeed wins

my default is 1.35v

but now it's only prime stable at 294 x 9 @ 1.4v .... i refuse to add more voltage at this point....everything performs just nice for now.

Processor ...definitely 3800+ X2. Mobo depends on your budget....

My list would go for:
- Biostar Tforce550 ... around RM350
- DFI Infinity UltraII-M2 ...around RM435
- ASUS M2N SLI Deluxe ...around RM790
