Read First Before Increasing Voltages!

Jazzyjazz2004 · Mar 15, 2004, 04:28 AM

aHa! I still get the same scores...I don't know why, though. I am still WAY ahead of my previous settings of 185 FSB though (about 12% ahead).
Anyway, I settled for a 210 FSB @ 1.775V...it doesn't seem worth it to go to 1.9V for 10 more FSB points ie; 210 to 220.
Changing the latencies to 7/3/3/2.5 gives better results than 11/3/3/2.5 in spite of this being a nForce2 board.

Thanks again,
Jazz

try downloading "aida32" , just find it with google, aida32, IMO, has 2 nice benchmarks that give healty memory scores which react to every change in bios and in speed.

Didn't FORGET you Mr. G@meBoy,

I downloaded AIDA32 and it gives READ results about the same as SANNDRA...nice utility. I get 3050 as my memory READ score and 2700 as my WRITE score. I am at 11 x 210 @ 1.775. It's Great.

I have noticed that my cpu is a very bad overclocker, I have bought the thermaltake volcano 12, which is fantastic, but my palomino 1800+ donÂ´t go over 1840Mhz without locks up. My voltage is currently 2.2v which is pretty high, I donÂ´t want to overpass it. Anyway, my system has a good performance

I still need some help locating documentation for 64 Bit AMD processors and Mobile XP processors.

Anyone?

I had bad luck OCing my old 1900 polomino chip. All i ever got out of it was an extra 100Mhz @ 1.9Vcore. I think polomino chips are bad overclockers overall. I ended up buying a xp2400 and gave the 1900 to my little sister at stock speeds.

Now i have a barton 2500, but it won't stay stable at 3200 (11x200 locked mult.

) speeds. I've had the core as high as 1.85 and it seemed to run ok i guess. I only had it running at 1.85 just for benching; but whenever i put it at 1.75 ie6, MSFT word, or a few other simple programs, they keep crashing. I'm thinking of taking out my old 2400 and using that one again since the mult. is unlocked on that chip, and give the 2500 to my gf.

I set my voltage to 1.6 and it goes to 1.68. I hate it. ah well. With no volt mods I can do 190FSB but to get up to 205, I need to up the voltage to 1.75. 1.85 for 215. I dont run it at 215 though because UT2004 wont open when I up the speed that much.

palomino core IS BAD overclocker, very few of them will be willing to go over 1.9ghz, I seen a few @2ghz but that is rare...

Not sure if it contains what you are looking for but here it is.

AMD Athlon™ 64 Processor Tech Docs
http://www.amd.com/us-en/Processors/...9_7203,00.html

The information you are looking for may be in one of these.

i pumped 1.825v thru what i think was a copperwood (socket370) 667mhz got it all the way up to 830mhz (maxed out the fsb) and with the agp/pci bus unlocked too.

my first, and undoubtedly most satisfying overclocking experience.
