I don't know any way to check the sata clock. Even hooking up a osciloscope would be useless because there is no stationary waveform on the SATA data lines. I'm not sure how to check if there is a dedicated crystal oscilator or IC to generate the sata clock, or if its based on an existing clock. Some boards have confirmed that the sata clock is based on the PCI-E clock, but not sure if this holds true for all boards.

ahh, i forgot i still haven't play with multiplier... thanks for reminding me...

btw, HT link around 1000-1100 still acceptable right?

no i didnt..if i still using the 1T setting, of course the beep sound will be heard, or my pc will went to blank screen..
but my problem is it will automatically restarted at boot screen, even when i use the same setting like before with my previous bios..
now achieving only 2.5GHz is so hard to do 

anyway how about the other setting like spread spectrum and anything else? im afraid i 'ignored' them..

Just try to OC with new mobo biostar TF-7050, able to hit 3.2GHz easily 

cpu-z validation page: http://valid.x86-secret.com/show_oc.php?id=219196

maybe you should give it a try 

btw, it is bcoz my proc boleh tahan also la. if get laosy proc cannot go high also

The new 560 am2+ chipset is just a BIG LIE from biostar. Actually it is not an am2+ chipset , just compatible / support am2+ platform like any other Nvidia 5/4 series mobos .

Take a look if you are able to read chinese, it shows that 560 chipset is just another am2 chipset which the Hyper Transport Speed is 2G also. If it is an am2+ chipset, it should be able to run at 3G. Also , i heard that the OC ability of this 560 mobo is not as good as his senior TForce550SE. You can try to get 570SLI or 590SLI if you plan to do some great OC as the OC ability of these mobos are confirm good.

I've bought this TF7050 bcoz i addicted to MATX mobo adi, dunno why but i just love matx mobo so much....

Tailow. Thank you for the advice.   

you're welcome

oh ya, anyone at here has try the new amd BE 2300/2350 proc? I've heard that it is not just ordinary brisbane, AMD has implemented more transistors into it, but dunno they've got fix the L2 cache latency problem or not.

i've read the articles about BE-2300 & BE-2350... no good... the OC ability is very low... the proc onli use low wattage onli... they said that the BE-2300 can be compared with x2 3600+ and the BE-2350 can be compared to x2 4000+ but to me, x2 is better than those BE's proc... it even cannot beat C2D E2140 in OC for christ sake... no use to test this... next week going to a fren of mine going to buy this proc and test it... but i doubt it will perform good...
AMD release this proc i think for user who want to save power not OCing,.,

i hv no idea about AN9 32X . sorry

maybe you can try to google it

i cant pass FSB 300MHz, which is easily achieved when i was using my TForce 570U 
still wondering, whats happening actually 

yeah same thought , the northbridge is really cool.

Currently i feel like 2.44vdimm is not enough , i'm looking for a way to further increase it (vmod perhaps...) . If you know any method that i can increase the vdimm, do let me know ok? Thanks

It didn't happen before you flash the new BIOS right? I wonder what went wrong

You can't pass FSB 300, what does that mean? Even with some tweaking here and there, the error msg after saving BIOS appear is it? If that's the case, well basically I'm facing the same thing. I once tried FSB 306 and 311, can boot but fail in Orthos. But I get the beep sound if I make it to FSB 316.
TF7050 is a better board for OCing compared to TA690G iinm. It just that TA690G comes with slightly better VGA for someone who is short of cash to get a stand alone GPU

no error message of whatsoever..there are 2 problems so far, and it happened either one in one time;

1) after done tweaking in the bios, i save and restarted, then the pc will reboot..but unfortunately what happened was blank screen, and both of the red didnt light up
2) even if i managed to pass the problem above, the second problem that appeared was restarted during the boot screen (only restart, no BSOD)

before flashed to this BIOS, i managed to get only 2.8-2.9GHz highest..but looks like this time it becomes even worse than before 

what should i do guys 

i am using an9 sli now....
overclock better and nicer than KN9 ... it is more stable... faster.... got esata... better build in off board audio realtek 882D ( Dorby Digital Live for digital output )
by using kn9 sli i cannot cool boot up if using 316x9.5 but 310x9.5 will boot... but it is a stable board too
now an9 sli it can cool boot ... and can gain more clock with 320x 9.5 now and still prime.... +plus more vdimm is 2.5
i even can boot at 330 x 9.5 and get in windows... but prime fail... i dun want that
it have uguru and can save bios.... solid board....
truely do recommended for all overclocker... happy to have it here after using AN8 Ultra last time... i have guru again =)
will post any new clock i gain and prime 24 hours....

i dun think we have x64 version yet... but x32 have support for vista and winxp

wondering where can i buy F3 windsor. Anyone has any idea? 

I got mine from US before it was launched in Malaysia.
It was freaking expensive. I shouldn't have bought it. 

Wow...CZ. Borrow me one night.
-pWs-

 
lend me for a night as well

wow you serious?    

i try to push my brisbane during this weekend 1st, if cannot then i'll find you ok?   

I've read your signature. What's the vcore that u pumped in order to get 2.8GHz?

ooooo..... by looking at it, it seems has very big potential to do a big job....
