I tried Biostar's ori bios and rebel's modded bios... All just sux..
All i can say is Biostar is not meant for hardcore overclocker..
*
Yeah, not all tforce r good to be frank. Most Biostar bios r buggy...they always finished 90% only lol. E.g. 965pt 1t 2t problems (now solved...but thats months after the mobo came out)

However, at those price...we cant complain much. There r all oc-able..just buggy.

lol only now i heard biostar not good... is it becoz of ram limitation or timing etc..
*
biostar bios offers great range of parameters for ram...but not all r use-able haha. Some will revert back to stock settings after u reboot lol....

byfc2010, yeah. Newer revision of tforce has 2.4vdimm...so it's enough for most rams..unless u wanna go extreme tongue.gif

sjn hassan, i believe all tforce am2 will have hard time passing 285fsb (a bug) from bios. I have seen this problem with 6100 and 570u i owned months ago. However, u can fix that by ocing using clockgen. I got mine up to 340-350-ish.

thanks for your reminder. I'm making a list just now notworthy.gif
Those people who response to me when i survey around a while ago, i've counted them into a list

CV6149
sempronic
xixo_12
byfc2010
ongbs
likito
nik0ns
yeop
alive88

only 9 slots available as i only order 10 pieces of CCB8F 3800+ F3 windsor proc (1 for myself).
The list is not final list as some of them might quit due to certain reasons. Those who listed don't have to pay anything to me 1st. I will open a thread in garage sales section and we will discuss it over there once i get the proc ( should be on this coming friday).

For those still interested , don't be shy to let me know. I will inform you if any of them quit the list. smile.gif

Put me in teh list too hehehe.

is there no other way to flash the bios or anything?
it sucks man.. i spend 600 for this mobo
*
TF6100 for RM600? ohmy.gif TF6100 nvr been that expensive at all...

EDIT: read wrongly...it's 590sli haha. OK, check ur mobo manual, u can do 2.2V with jumper....check it. BIOS won't able to push it beyond 2.1V.

3.5GHz, dare to add vcore sure can reach laugh.gif
also depend on how good is the cooler icon_rolleyes.gif
Don't worry , FYI ...
If your cooler good enough... It is safe to add vcore till 1.7v brows.gif  ( please make sure u can overcome the generated heat) icon_rolleyes.gif
more than 1.7v...please think twice...the proc might be sudden death bcoz of high voltage
also...am2 proc.. normal user like us mostly stop at 1.7vcore...
more than that...the clock speed just won't raise...need extreme cooling only can work
i tried to add vcore till 1.8v before... my 5200+ still cannot pass 3.4GHz rclxub.gif
*
1.8V?!!!
wah lao...COD liao baru tell me! sweat.gif

no proc injury case happen on my hand 1... icon_rolleyes.gif
the proc is at -3C when i bench it...
what say u laugh.gif


Added on October 13, 2007, 1:39 am
not really....air cond + air cooling damn powerful also 1 icon_rolleyes.gif
can handle 1.6v above
*
Not really...lol
I have nvr seen such high vcore....even phase change also can tahan until 1.7v most. At this point, it's the voltage that kills, not temp... sweat.gif
I haven't test the CPU....my mobo not with me yet doh.gif

damn...something wrong v my settings....
slower 0.3s at 3GHz compared to 5200+ rclxub.gif
still troubleshooting....
hopefully it is not caused by less L2 cache compared to 5200+ cry.gif
*
LOL that L2 cache will surely improve a little... tongue.gif

Is the pci speed locked at 33MHz when your HTT is 225MHz?
