3529

now I know you p4 people will think this is no big deal but I really hope the AMD people here can appreciate the degree of OC going on here.....

xp2100 @ 228x10.5 or 2.4Ghz
nf7-s v1.2 vdd mod with a pencil

2x256 pc3500 kingston hyperX still in dual channel!

all on air! ax-7 cooling the cpu. stock nb hsf with as3 in place of goop abit had there. passive TT ramsink cut to fit the sb. And one 120mm side fan blowing over agp, nb and sb.

229 fsb, nice

NFORCE 2 here I come-- I can't wait to get one of those Abit Nforce2 boards-- That would even make my current rig faster without changing any components- My ram would go higher than it can w/ my MB, the cpu could be unlocked from bios and pushed much further-

That might be my next upgrade- just can't figure out all the steppings of the Nf7's, seems like they release or announce a new release of a new stepping every week. I need to do some research on that.

I have ordered 2 of these in the last 2 weeks and both have been the "C1" stepping. It appears that is all they have....lol. They are pretty sweet, but don't plan on using the Serial ATA for Raid. Seems they still haven't worked out the problems with Raid 0 and the Silicon Image 3112 I think it is. Too bad, thats the only thing that keeps me from getting one for myself. Just not willing to take the chance that I will be the next one on the Abit forums complaining about data corruption.

Good luck and VERY NICE Shuki! Now let me give you my address so you can ship it to me....heh.

Shuki, there is a beta bios 17 floating around on the net. Give it a whirl. here

why is that? 3529 bandwidth not enough for ya?

Seriously, I'm a bit leary about changing my BIOS just because this 1.6 has been so good to me! Man I've changed 15-20+ settings at once (including 133 to 225 jump and all voltages, mem timings, etc) without the dreaded BIOS hose. Think Im just gonna be content here for a while until I have some reason to try out the 1.7....
