this morning i tried to go over 300 but failed. with mem divider set to 400/533, BSOD while loading XP. If on mem divider 667/800, pc wont boot(ram prob). What else should i tweak? vcore already 1.45v.. sweat.gif
*
try to pump more vcore..
and since u still using stock cooler, better keep it under 1.5v..
and set the divider to the lowest (533 or 400) and loose the timing (CL5 perhaps?)

more vcore? shocking.gif  shocking.gif

divider already lowest(400) but still same. timing 5-5-5-15-20-2t also no go...
*
yes, more vcore..my windsor already pumped up to 1.6v thumbup.gif
but like i said earlier, better keep it under 1.5v since u r still using a stock cooler..

and if all the methods above arent working, i think the board hit the wall already..

i dun really bother to use the auto oc engine, i dun feel like when it randomly change my timing and divide..

and 2.4GHz is quite low on brisbane..u will feel the excitement when u use manual oc and pump it to 3.0GHz thumbup.gif

just did some survey at lyp, and i spotted X2 3600 at most shops, but sadly they didnt even bother to update it into their pricelist , need to ask them to bring out the box so that u can spot it clearly (about the cache thingy, DD part) sweat.gif

anyway found out most of it retailed at RM240, and some shops even demand for >RM250, because the cheaper price can only be given if wanna buy bundle with motherboard..

luckily i found 1 shop (quite infamous in my favorite shoplist) and found out they sell it for RM235..perhaps can be bargain again, but didnt try.. smile.gif

after my mobo back from RMA, i think ill be joining the brisbane clan.. biggrin.gif

something bothers me about Everest and cpuz reading...

cpu-z:
FSB:DRAM = CPU/7
DRAM = 407

Everest:
FSB:DRAM = CPU/8
DRAM = 357
which 1 is correct? rclxub.gif  I'm using DDR-533 divider on BIOS.
*
since DDR800 is CPU/5 and DDR667 is CPU/6, so i believe DDR533 must be CPU/7 smile.gif

BIOS will lock it at 33.33mhz unless u change PCI-E bus speed with clockgen.

If ur oc and PCI bus change, go email biostar for further support.

ic..thanks for the answer..will try oc again with my 570U and see how it goes smile.gif

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..
*
perhaps its meant for budget-oriented overclocker rolleyes.gif
with the price of RM300, what can we expect more.. cool.gif

QUOTE(2uk3y @ Jun 14 2007, 11:28 AM)
hello all AM2 overclockers...... wave.gif
just wanna ask 1 question, what is the best mobo for oc....is it BIOSTAR TForce 550 coz i saw many of u used it ??? hmm.gif
i tot DFI type is good for oc !!! unsure.gif
TQ
*
TForce is purposely made for overclocking..
DFI also good, but its picky as well (some of it) smile.gif

byfc2010, yeah. Newer revision of tforce has 2.4vdimm...so it's enough for most rams..unless u wanna go extreme tongue.gif
*
2.4v is enuff, but the buggy part is u cant change the voltage between 2.1v - 2.3v, its either 1.95v-2.1v, or 2.4v...
unless u do some vmod on it.. sweat.gif

================================================================================

anyway after reading all this, i think i wanna change my mobo..
and im thinking of getting the same mobo with pWs : DFi INFINITY NF ULTRAII-M2
the newest bios provide option for overclocking 65nm processor .. wub.gif

user posted image

but i cant find this model on LYP's pricelist sweat.gif
pWs, mind telling me where did u get it and what is the price? smile.gif

wah..change mobo jz to OC...
dont u think changing mobo is the most hassle part coz need to reinstall windows frm scratch..besides tat, need to unscrew everything frm the casing and re-arrange all those cacing wire...
i will keep my mobo for at least a lng time....
*
that was just a planning..not confirm yet.. rolleyes.gif
yes, changing the mobo is the most hassle part, even taking it out from the casing also took a lot of effort.. sweat.gif

my plan is, OC with this TForce 570U first, after it back from RMA and see how far it can go..
then depends on the result, ill think back either want to change or not.. smile.gif
