Guest LightSpeed Posted April 16, 2005 Posted April 16, 2005 whatever he did, the board didn't last long enough to run anything more than superpi. I have to disagree with the cascade making all the difference, as we are talking from hitting a brick wall @271FSB with current BIOS. Older BIOS clock higher up to 280, depending on CPU. 1:1 of course. I know the VX4000 didn't like the 5:4 divider at all which is a real shame If you had an ASUS board you would know that a frozen northbridge is not needed for 1200FSB, not even watercooling Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nosfer@tu Posted April 16, 2005 Posted April 16, 2005 The Board is Simply a frip off. Its the same . at when I Bougth the Asus P4PE and it tock 13 beta bioses for them to lock the Pci/Agp setting. I Dont belive that Fugger jused anything other than the standard Nbrighe profile, as fare as I recall. If its not posibel to do past 270 whit other ram im surly selling this ., And Im not quite sure what to buy then. Simply a waste of time, money and life to buy this board. I challange everybody to trie and go past the 275 fsb barrier and come up with a screenshot 1:1 and 10 passes memtester 1.55. I my self have done 277 fsb and 32M superpi but what good is that when I have a LS taking 200 Watts of power an hour and I could do the same with water. Asus and Dfi are now on my black list.

fordf250 Posted April 16, 2005 Posted April 16, 2005 You are running out of motherboard companys to like. This was with the 5/4 divider done with the bios not clockgen on air the only problem I had was the keyboard stopped working but some said I should change my pci mhz to fix that. I have not had a chance to see if that work.I know you wanted a 1/1 shot but that will have to wait. http://client.webshots.com/photo/312249557/315588034rOBMEJ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

fordf250 Posted April 16, 2005 Posted April 16, 2005 I,m not offended but I thought you said you couldn,t do more than 277. I dont even need water yet so why an LS. I also have an AS8 but like the DFI better but you can try abit if you like. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nosfer@tu Posted April 16, 2005 Posted April 16, 2005 Yes I have done 270 Error free in memtester. And 3 passes at 274 1 pass at 275 1:1 All of them then i did 290 5:4 and Im not quite sure if i did 295 5:4 I noly remember trying for 297 fsb and lost ntfs.

Yep...same thing here, but 295 I could boot into windows, and 293 it hosed windows beyond repair. I would NEVER run 5:4 with 2.5/4/4/8...talk about castrating a board, but that's just me Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
red930 Posted April 18, 2005 Posted April 18, 2005 With the testing I have done so far, I am finding that my RAM is partly to blame for me not being able to maintain any stability over 250Mhz FSB at 1:1 ratio. Once setting it to 5:4 divider with RAM at 220Mhz, I have been able to hit 4.138Ghz with ease. Even though it has been quite stable for well over 8 hours today, I am still running tests for long term use and will be pushing the FSB higher once I finish this round.

red930 Posted April 18, 2005 Posted April 18, 2005 Bumped it up to 277Mhz and lowered the voltage on the CPU. Have the 5:4 divider going on with RAM going at 221Mhz. Should hit 280 by Wednesday/Thursday timeframe. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
red930 Posted April 18, 2005 Posted April 18, 2005 Awww heck, you only live once, right? I bumped it up to 280Mhz, increased the CPU to 1.5125v and have started testing. So far, so good. Been running about an hour with several heavy load tests without a glitch. Temps climb close to 48c but I can live with that for the time being.

fordf250 Posted April 18, 2005 Posted April 18, 2005 Very nice and brave AceGoober.I found after 280 I needed alot more Vcore for my 560J at 14x to keep it stable.Is that musHkin hynix?My el 4200 Hynix liked the 5/4 divider better than my bh-6.

red930 Posted April 19, 2005 Posted April 19, 2005 So far, so good. Ran it all night and all day on Prime95 with Throttlewatch, CPUz 1.26, Hardware monitor and SuperPi without a hitch. I did see the temps go to 50c but those are still livable with considering the environment it is running in. My ambient room temperature is currently 61F due to me not having the sliding glass doors open to allow fresh, cooler air in. Otherwise, it would drop exponentially.
