MikeyLikesItSI Posted April 12, 2005 Posted April 12, 2005 hmmmm, thats funny, i don't ever remember the system powering on due solely to memory being inserted in their slots. Several others, as well as myself, have had auto-on problems with this motherboard, powering itself on after a few second of being shut down. Merely a few bios settings and adjustments to take care of this problem, a problem of which does not exist anymore. User error? Sounds like user correction. It seems that people that actually have methods and logic behind their testing find that the 5/4 divider does indeed work. I'm sorry you can't get yours to work at any given speed. Maybe a faulty board.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nosfer@tu Posted April 14, 2005 Posted April 14, 2005 i know a guy who is running 290 fsb 5:4 with his adata pc 4800 stable . vapo cooled . his cpu is a 540j 3,2@4,653 I believe he’s talking about me. I only did a 1 m superpi at that speed and since I Have a LS I cant sedel with 270 fsb 1:1 This link shows the Amount of errors I get at 275 Fsb and about 35 different timings.... If this isn’t a Defected board that had the best PR in the world by fugger. Wondering more and more how the man did that without modding this crappy board. http://img152.echo.cx/img152/4494/dfi2qi.jpg Feel free to delete my post, But Im VERY disappointed with this board. Should have kept my old IC7-G and just spend the extra 30 $ on a 3.2 Prescott Socket 478 and saved myself 100 $ for my LGA socket 775 kit. REALLY disappointed in this board and would love for a DFI supporter to ether come up with an explanation on how to proceed. MODDING and loosing RMA would be okay for me, 270 Fsb just isn’t enough. Only running 1.45 Vcore and my m8 did that whit water cooling on this board. So this is definitively a "SELL and share the pain" board for me. :eek2: :mad: :sad: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigStan Posted April 15, 2005 Posted April 15, 2005 Would those Adata 4800 per chance be made with TCCD chips? If so, TCCD mem isn't working very well with this mobo. I have both TCCD and hynix, and the hynix are getting me a higher fsb. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
red930 Posted April 15, 2005 Posted April 15, 2005 Ok, Ok, Ok. You all have peaked my interest beyond casual curiosity. I am going to test out the theories about the 5:4 divider on my setup and a secondary confg that I have. Results will be posted in this thread.

Nosfer@tu Posted April 15, 2005 Posted April 15, 2005 Im not Quite sure if they are TCCD chips. That means I would have to take the Headspreaders off and I havent don that before. I dont think the STIKER with S/N nr hould give em any info?? Im VERY happy to se that allot of "dudes" out ther woundering 2. I would love to se a 3.8 running with 14 multi and 271 fsb or beound 24/7. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nosfer@tu Posted April 15, 2005 Posted April 15, 2005 A-Data Support just reported back, they ar going to preform som tests with some DFI crew, and hey will report back ASAP Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigStan Posted April 15, 2005 Posted April 15, 2005 I would love to se a 3.8 running with 14 multi and 271 fsb or beound 24/7. The 14 multi is a definite issue. DFI for sure has not got that right on any BIOS so far. I've not seen anynone running higher then 275 with the 14 multi. But MiketlikesIt has done a lot of memory testing and has a pbs with TCCD mem getting very high even on default multi. I'm currently at 280fsb, 15 multi (default multi). I can boot and bench a little at 285 1:1, but my mem can't hold on there. I an post into Win at 290. So this mobo promises a lot, but not with the 14 multi, and it is picky with mem. I have some OZC4400 coming in today. We shall see if the mobo can hold on higher than 285 over the weekend. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigStan Posted April 15, 2005 Posted April 15, 2005 Good luck Ace! Most of us have found out that when it starts failing at 1:1 it is also failing at 5:4. Most always fails test #7 on Memtest v1.41 or higher. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest LightSpeed Posted April 15, 2005 Posted April 15, 2005 I was able to do 280FSB using the 11/30 BIOS and D0 CPU with 14x multi, but no higher than that, which I believe is the limit of my RAM. I have also done a lot of memory testing on this board, and with different CPUs (enough to make me ill). Now with a 640 I can't seem to get past 271FSB in BIOS no matter what I do...at least with TCCD. I have a kit of Hynix BT-D43 (HyperX PC4300) I will try over the weekend to see if I can hit 4.4 GHz. How hard would it be for DFI to tweak the BIOS for TCCD? Since DFI and OCZ work together, and also since TCCD is the performance RAM of choice these days, I don't see any real reason it shouldn't work. I also find it interesting how no matter what I do I cannot hit 272 FSB with the same RAM that does 280, when all I changed was the BIOS. It also sucks that one has to use certain BIOS depending on which CPU they have... For example, D0 should use 11/30, N0 should use 3/25, E0 seems to be the only decent one out of the bunch, and with that I would use the 1/25 BIOS. I agree with Nosfer@tu about this board...over-hyped and I REALLY don't believe that fugger got the clock he did on an unmodded board, especially now. Ironically, fuggers board never produced any benchmarks with the 875P-T as it died and he never bothered to try again with that board...hmmmmm Also interesting how someone with a vapochill is not getting any higher FSB than me Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

fordf250 Posted April 16, 2005 Posted April 16, 2005 How far did frugger get? I would like to see the post. With clockgen and the 14x I can get over 300fsb on air for a screen shot. With a vapochill it should go higher. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't quote me, but i believe fuggar had his cascade hooked up to the north bridge too. I'm sure frozen northbridge makes ALL the difference in the world.
