bro,

what u mean by
- lowest vcore is 1.25v, can't set it any lower.

isit cannot set due to the mobo limitation or
the cpu itself cannot boot using below default value?

that mobo bios no cpu vid settings?
*
d lowest vcore available is d vid i think, it's not like dfi or biostar where u can undervolt ya chip voltage. there's only one option for d vcore settin, which starts from d lowest (vid) available. sad.gif

i've requested for a copy of beta bios, will try & share w/ u guys if it works better than d stock bios. wink.gif

@ Ah_Khoo,

So this is what you're up to...
So hows the AX78?

Bout the SB600, lucky i'm not running raid, if not you'll be sneezing in Singapore cz i'll curse u upside down...tongue.gif

Btw, what was ur cpu vid when u were using the 790FX? Is it what you're seeing on the AX78 now?
*
bro, u ain't need d sb600, u got a dedicated raid controller in SiI3132 which is alot faster than d crappy SB600, trust me. wink.gif

not much complain for a cheapo CF board bro, so far so gud thou i kena torture by d raid thingy for d 1st 2 days, then had minor hiccup w/ my sound card & latest d abit EQ issue, but all these solved so i can start playin d oc a 'lil. biggrin.gif

vid shown in 790FX & AX78 is d same, 1.25v for my lousy 0715... tongue.gif

bro, never use windows to flash bios unless u got no choice. wink.gif

if u wanna use AOD on ya x2, u can dl d hacked version which can be used on 770, 780 or even 790 boards if i'm not mistaken. smile.gif

Hi guys,
  It's my first post in this thread  smile.gif , anyway, I have a A690G board (Asus M2A-VM) and had stuffed in a Phenom 9550..but I noticed that i cannot use the AMD Overdrive software..is it for A700 series chipset only?

thx and ciao AMD brethrens.. smile.gif
*
690g is meant for am2 only, thou it supports phenoms but if u would like to have all d features available in ya 9550, get a phenoms board in 780g (or other 7x0 boards) equipped mobo. nod.gif

hmm..might grab a new board once i had finished with my exams smile.gif . I'm not really sure about Biostar, but is anybody using the Abit AX78 here? Wanna find out the price and whether it is good or not.. My rig is the "shoebox" type and can only support MATX at a squeeze tongue.gif .

nope, u can't fit a ax78 into those matx case as it's a full atx board. guess u gotta go for 780g matx boards ledi. d new biostar 780g w/ heatpipe looks awesome... drool.gif

try those in techpowerup then, i think it's moded version, should be able to use, will give it a try when i have d time. smile.gif

btw, to all 770 mobo users, do u guys face high temp @ pwm? i'm havin quite high (near 60'c on load w/ 1.35v vcore) pwm temp... w/ phenoms it's gonna be higher i think... sweat.gif

chip temp is acceptable @ ~47'c w/ d amount of vcore mentioned, surprisingly system temp is ok, below 40'c all the time. smile.gif

same old chip but new mobo, not so bad consider its price. wink.gif

some new findins:

- AOD works but voltages not shown properly.
- put v s.b = vcore, oc more stable.
- must disable d eq control thingy in bios if u want d abit EQ to work properly in windows.

that's all for now. smile.gif

i know we as amd fans knew that sb got 'lil to do w/ amd oc, but do give it a try (by increasin d v s.b for mild oc ) when u oc ya chip on 770 chipset boards (or atleast ax78). i managed to brin down d vcore a 'lil by applyin v s.b near or equal to vcore. smile.gif

this is my f3 oc @ 3100MHz too on ta690g which require 1.36v.

it helps in gettin orthos stable, mite even help to brin down vcore needed for certain speed. biggrin.gif

For budget with much good oc function and voltage . my choice  1st is ta770 ..2nd is ax78

Gigabyte limit the voltage coz they dont wan to RMA the mobo so much.
Msi limit Htt ..or cannot over 30% htt oc adjustment ..the mobo wont boot
Asus ..hehe gila bios option but useless for amd ..is good at intel side but not at amd 

from soket A until now DFI , Abit is very good then come out AM2  hv biostar

So dont blur blur with ur choice
*
i wud say biostar have d upper hand on bios side, abit's bios is too simple to moderate clocker like us. is d bios for ta770 still shaky? while d gud thing for abit ax78 is d cf feature (for those who intended to cf lah ofcoz) & d looks (heatpipe fever... tongue.gif ). biggrin.gif

Now running 3.2Ghz stable.
Will try to up my Vcore to 1.25v tomorrow and see what speeds i can hit if i have the time.
Hopefully no more OT for this coming 1-2 days.

yup, life is hard at Singapore which is facing quite serious inflation atm. sad.gif

3.6 is my target to hit on air. Anyway, the ultimate will be able to hit 4ghz on water.
Hopefully.

I have not seen how well this proc responds to voltage, so still too early to say whether it could or could not do 3.6 on air, but 1 thing i realised, my rig seems to be running hotter using the DFI compared to the Abit. hmm.gif

Maybe ITE Smartguardian is giving me the wrong reading, or was it Abit Uguru reporting the wrong figures all these while... sweat.gif

superb chip u have there bro... 3.4GHz for for 24/7 is just sweeeeet... thumbup.gif

i'm not so sure bout d temp readin too... my ax78 is reportin ~53'C for chip, 33'C for system (to be honest i still dunno what system is referrin to until now), pwm is d hottest among all... 63'C... sweat.gif

all temps are on load w/ 1.42v @ 3.2GHz, system reboot after 10 mins... laugh.gif

revert back to 3.0GHz now, no point forcin d chip to do wat it can't... smile.gif

gonna try how far d board can brin my 10 anni, but i'm not expectin it to be as gud as 690g for sure. nod.gif

For mine, the Proc~45c, System~46c, Chipset~48c. Roughly around tat.
My proc used to hover around 40c at the same speed, and bios set to 1.2v.

3.4Ghz for daily use is overkill for me IMHO. Maybe only for gaming.
I'll just run the proc on such speeds for benching and also stability testing purpose.
The final 24/7 speed will b the highest speed on stock vcore which is most likely to be around 3.2Ghz.

I have not really have chance to see how far my rams can go.
But not expecting too much from them as they're just cheapo value rams.

Btw, why are you saying the the AX78 might not be able to push ur Annies as far as the TA690g?
I tot TA690g has pretty limited Vdimm for rams?

-edited-Chipset not PWM.
*
ur wrong bro, ta690g is one of d best (if not d best) am2 boards. its bios for ram tweakin can be as rich as dfi mind u... tongue.gif

yeah, 1.3v (or below) is gud for 24/7 setup, but if ur on water, it mite overkill a 'lil. smile.gif
