Amd chip cpu fsb etc...

HI new here but have watched the board of for stuff on kt333 aru my prblem is this what is the cpu clock frq best set at for a 1900 XP this is my first time doing this so please help someone thanks in advance oh also i am buying 256 stick of ram at a time hope to go for 3 will this be enough as I have heard more is better wha tdo u guys think ?

Amd XP1900+ = FSB 133
Memory.... I personally would not bother with more than 2 256mb of ram sticks, as 512 mb is more than adequate. However you could consider getting a 512MB ram stick (Avalible) instead of two more 256's as you then have one slot remaining.
However i think that 512mb is more than enough.
Hope this helps.

Confused about the 'cpu fsb clock frequency' setting, etc., in cell in bios

just got a new k8n neo2-f nforce3 board with an a64 3500+ venice chip. It is properly recognized in the bios and windows as an a64 3500+ at 2.2ghz, but I'm confused about the cell menu settings in the bios. I see a 'cpu fsb clock frequency' which was automatically set at 200mhz, but the fsb runs at 1Ghz (1000mhz), so what is the 'fsb clock frequency' if not equal to the cpu fsb? Is 200 the correct setting for that? Should I need to change any of the other settings in here? I wonder, because my 3dmark03 score only went up 200 points from the same system with a AthlonXP 2500+ chip and kt4avl mobo, which seems like a low increase to me.....

I would set that to Manual in BIOS, so that you can incremently increase the CPU speed without causing a sudden crash. Each system is different and operates within the specs of not only the CPU, but system memory and PCI-E add-ins as well. Your video card is the primary driver behgind your 3DMark scores...but you haven't listed that?!

CPU FSB clock

I don't know much of computers and i have just bought an Athlon XP 2000+ processor. What BIOS settings do i have to change to make it work at the correct operating speed?
I've anyone could help me, i don't wanto fry my PC.
AMD says it's 266 for the CPU FSB clock it this correct?
thanks
Montana

Welcome
It may be set up correctly now. What speed is your chip running now - about 1667 MHZ. How is chip IDed at startup - XP2000+? If not, say you have 2000+ Tbred, set FSB to 133 (266 DDR) and multiplier to 12.5 (think that's correct default). Be sure to give your motherboard manual a good read! Will help with settings.
Depending on your motherboard model, memory, cooling etc, you may (with some experience) be able to run that chip to 166-200 FSB. But don't try above 133 FSB without proper research. You can damage your system. You'll have to furnish your system details to get a better handle on its potential.

Max Clock Speed (AMD Chips only please)

I was wondering what the highest CPU clockspeed in MegaHertz anyone has got on any AMD chip. This is sort of a see whos highest contest
If you can, put down the FSB, Multiplier and model.
Thanks

Hello, Overclocking Gurus, my set up is in my sig.
The highest Overclock I could achieve, with my Barton 2500, and were
it would boot into Windows, and run stable for any period of time was
220 x 11.5 = 2,530MHZ with the vcore @ 1.85v with my Core temp
running @ 10-20 degrees Celsius over ambient.
I didn’t want to smoke my Core or my RAM quite yet, so I back it down
to 202 x 11.5 = 2,323 MHZ with the vcore @ 1.70v, now my Core temp
runs @ 2-6 degrees Celsius over ambient, and totally stable 24-7.
The Highest Overclock for a Barton 2500 non-M, that I found was 3,210
MHZ with the vcore @ 1.90v and cooled by air with a SLK-700 and a
TMD fan. It’s hard for me to believe, that someone can reach 3,210 MHZ
on air with a SLK-700 and a TMD fan! If someone could achieve that
high of a overclock, I would have thought surely it was cooled by a
Prometeia rig! But who really knows, it could just be a little fib!
I found that info here http://www.overclockers.com and click on CPU database.
I can almost guarantee that there have been higher Overclocks using liquid
Nitrogen! But I don’t think it will remain stable for any period of time!
Liquid submersion is the way to go if you want to achieve nice Overclocks,
with a very low overall temp, but it is extremely expensive, and quite scary
putting all of your components into a bath of liquid, also, it might be a bit
messy if you like to change video cards or other components often!

[VIA] highest cpu/fsb support

I have an MSI mobo - KT4V (MS-6712) VIA KT400 chipset based
I would like to know what is the fastest cpu/fsb that can be used with this mobo.
I dont want to buy the wrong chip and have to return it because it wont work
Some help PLEASE!!!
I THANK YOU NOW FOR ANY INPUT
P.S. KT4V is written on the box - KT4V-L is written on the sticker with the bar code thats on the box

Hi
Here is a link to the MSI site about your motherboard. You can use up to an Athlon 3200+ providing it has a 333fsb. They are fairly hard to find. As long as the cpu does not have a 400fsb, you are ok.
The -L at the end indicates that it has onboard lan.

Setting BIOS CPU FSB clock to 333

Hello everyone,
I recently acquired the K7N2-Delta ILSR (MS-6570) motherboard; nVIDIA Next GF2 400 FSB DDR. The CPU is an Athlon XP 2500 1.85 GHZ, 333 MHz.
The mainboard specs states the Socket A (Socket - 462) supports AMD Athlon XP processors @ FSB 266/333/400. I have the jumper J11 on the board set to 'short'.
With all that said, I've tried adjusting the CPU FSB Clock Frequency to 333 in the BIOS Setup Utility yet 200 is the highest option it gives. Does the CPU Interface have to be set to 'High Performance'? Other adjustments necessary?
Thanks for any feedback!

200 mhz fsb is the correct setting, DDR is just that "double data rate" so 200 x 2 = 400 mhz

Cpu fsb clock setting?

I bought a Microstar MS-6380E KT3 Ultra with an AMD Athlon XP 1800+ (1.53Ghz) 266FSB CPU -- it just got in today.
I have it all set up EXCEPT for the clock frequency. The 6380 has a default of 100mhz, up to 220. But the AMD Athlon XP 1800+ is supposed to be a 266 fsb.
I don't want to overclock my system -- am afraid to endanger my system when I really don't need the extra processing power. I just want it set the way it should be.
There's another field -- CPU Ratio/Vcore (V), w/ the following manual description for it:
The items are used to adjust the CPU clock multiplier (artion) and CPU core voltage (Vcore). The fields provide users a tool to overclock the system. WARNING: Changing CPU Ratio/Vcore could result in the instability of the system; therefore, it is NOT recommended to change the default setting for long-term usage.
I was gonna _guess_ that I set my CPU FSB Clock to 133 and input a CPU clock multiplier (ratio) of 2 (assuming I could do that). Is that the correct way to configure this AMD Athlon 1800+ to this motherboard? The 'CPU core voltage (Vcore)' descriptor is what is making me afraid of experimenting. I would really hate myself if I destroyed my new cpu and/or motherboard less than 6 hours of having received it.
Please advise.

I doubt you can set the clock multiplier to "2" - simply it isn't available. Even if it is available and u hv not unlock your CPU, adjusting the multiplier ratio has no effect at all.
The default multiplier for 1800+ is 11.5x. Multiply it by 133fsb you get 1529.50mhz, hence xp1800+ (1.53G).
Don't confuse yourself, juz follow this setting if u r not overclocking:
FSB Clock: 133
CPU Ratio: AUTO
CPU VCORE: AUTO

845 Ultra ARU CPU FSB Ratios?

The bios provides DRAM Frequencies of 200, 266 and Auto. Given a FSB of 100, that means the ratio of CPU:FSB is 1:1 and 3:4. (What is 'Auto')
If I run the FSB at 133, are these ratios preserved, or does some other ratio come into effect. If I choose FSB of 133 and DRAM Frequency of 266, will I be running at 354 DDR? If so, do you think a stick of Corsair PC2700 (333 DDR) will O/C to that level?

X( You are correct on your ratio assumptions, but at 123 MHz the memory ratios become useless. The Auto option is as it suggests. The BIOS will automatically set all the RAM timings per what the chips are rated at. So if you have the memory set to Auto, you won't be able to change the CAS timings and the other various memory options.
The lack of memory ratios on this particular board is what really hurts it. I've got my 1.8A P4 overclocked to 2.52 GHz on a 140 MHz fsb. However, the CPU is being choked to death by a memory bandwidth of only 2.0 GB/s. If there were more memory ratios than the one 1:1 ratio that MSI gives us, I'm sure I could improve my system's performance quite a bit. The other problem with the MSI board, that affects me at least, is that the temperature sensor seems to be out of whack. PC Alert III and MBM5 say that my CPU is at 67-68 degrees Celsius under a full load. With the case open and my hand right on the heatsink during that full load, I can tell you that the reported temperature is at least ten degrees off. If it were really 68C, I would not be able to keep my hand on it without it feeling really warm.
So those are the only two things about the 845 Ultra-ARU that make me really wish I had gotten a different motherboard. :(
Hi jdurg.
I just found a post on Usenet that was very interesting. The poster has an 845 Ultra ARU. Here's the quote:
All this time I used fuzzylogic 4 to overclock my 1.6a to 2.1 @ 133. now I
actually went into BIOS and adjusted my memory settings. This is what I did:
Changed....
DDR Frequency: from 266 to AUTO
Configure DRAM Timing by: from MANUAL to SPD
What I noticed was the CAS# LATENCY changed from 2.5 to 2 (I didn't adjust)
Now I use a program called CPU-Z to get information on the CPU, MB, and MEM.
speeds. Before the changes on the motherboard/CPU speed was normal like:
Before: (with out bios changes)
CPU Frequency: 2119.1 MHz
Clock Multiplier: x 16.0
FSB Frequency: 132.4 MHz
MEM Frequency: 351.4 MHz
before I had problems of computer freezing after a few hours.
Now: (after bios changes)
CPU Frequency: 2119.1 MHz
Clock Multiplier: x 16.0
FSB Frequency: 132.4 MHz
MEM Frequency: 264.9 MHz
also CAS# L: 2clocks, RAS# to CAS# Delay: 2clocks, RAS# Precharge: 2clocks
and Cycle time: 5clocks.
now my main question is how come the MEM Freq. has changed/decreased?
and my system is very stable now (no crashes). is this normal? I have a
no-name, cheap(only paid $60 can.) is this normal for this mem chips?
There was no reply to the message, but it looks like he was getting a 3:4 memory speed ratio with the FSB at 133. This is good! He had DRAM Frequency set to 266 and memory timings set to Manual. Using AUTO and SPD brought his memory back to a 1:1 ratio. My board won't be in until the end of the week... is there anyway you could verify this on your board?

How do I change CPU FSB Freq on 975X Platinum Pue

Hi all!
I´m thinking about overclocking my CPU and that will be my first time ever. So I am a complete noob in this matter.
I have already read the sticky "975x Platinum Pue Overclocking Guide" (I do have that board) and will have it for reference later.
1. I have one question regarding changing CPU FSB frequency. I´m asked to key in a DEC number. But how should I do it. The guide says to "Start from 266 fsb increase by 3 fsb". So do I have to put in 269 to begin with, or how else do I change the number.
2. One other thing I want to ask of before I begin. My memory is Corsair XMS2 2x1GB 800MHz PC2-6400 CL5 in Dual channel. But in Bios it says 667MHz and voltage 1.8. Do I need to adjust memory clock ratio and the voltage before I begin overclocking?
3. My third question is: if overclocking Core 2 Duo E6400 to about 3.2GHz could I face some stability issue in regard to my PSU of 410W? (that my PSU could influence the system stability in a negative way). My system is very stable I think and the PSU fan is very quiet.
4. I´m using the the most recent Speedfan and it shows unusually high cpu temps, about 100c which is wrong as I´m using hardware temperature monitor which says about 35c idle and the BIOS says about the same. Which software cpu temp monitor would you recommend?

Speedfan is no good for Core2 Duo + 975xPUE, use CoreTemp
To change your FSB, simply put in a new number. The multiplier is locked on this board still I believe, so to calculate the frequency you'll get, just multiply the FSB by 9 and that should give it to you. So, yes, that means do 269, stress test, then 272, stress test, etc. BUT, the 266 they used in that guide is from an E6600, you don't have that. You want to start from whatever it is as default.
The reason you go up by 3 is because of stability issues as far as voltage is concerned. That is to say, go up by three, stress test (i like to use 2 instances of Folding@Home) and if it crashes, raise the voltage a little.
Make your fsb:memory ratio 1:1 always, and that means it will run a little slower than what it's rated at to begin with but then you can move up from there. As a beginner doing a pretty small overclock, you shouldn't worry about RAM. At 3.2GHz your RAM will be running at 712MHz, which is a little slower, but once you get more experienced that means you'll be able to tighten the timings.
Good luck and be safe

Diamond Plus; Cell Menu CPU FSB Set at 250 x11 but Board Running 200.9 x14

I have FSB set at 250 with the CPU multiplier set at x11. Memory is set at an FSB / DRAM ratio of 1:1. The memory modules are in slots 1 and 2 (green / purple). While in the BIOS Cell Menu it is reporting Memory frequency at DDR500 and the CPU at a slight underclock. This agrees with the above settings. However, in BIOS / Standard CMOS Features / CPU Configuration, it shows the CPU running at 2816Mhz with a multiplier of x14. This is equal to the settings (200.9 x14) that are applied when "Load Optimized Defaults" is loaded and saved. All of the settings in the rest of BIOS setup are definitely set to Manual and the setting values as noted in the first sentence.
CPUZ is also reporting a FSB of 200 with a multiplier of x14. It's showing the memory as PC3200 and running at DDR400 which makes sense if FSB is really running at 200. Long story short, it's reporting everything at the stock settings as set by "Load Optimized Defaults". It is correctly showing the memory in dual channel and the command address rate at 1T. This is the latest version of CPUZ. I had an older version saved on CD. I tried this old version and it reported the same thing.
I have all of the dynamic overclocking options, wakeup options, cool n' quiet and automatic fan speed controls (except northbridge) disabled. If there's any other options that could throttle down the CPU I sure couldn't find them. Even if there were, my CPU is running atb 39C at idle so it shouldn't kick in any thermal throttling. When I flashed to the version 1.19 BIOS version at MSI Tech Support's direction to solve the "phantom modem" issue, I took the extreme route to clearing CMOS; powered down, removed or disconnected all the components, pressed the clear CMOS button, removed the battery for 30 minutes, pressed the clear CMOS button again, reinserted the battery, pressed the clear CMOS button yet again, reinstalled / reconnected the minimum required components, flashed the BIOS, cleared CMOS again, cleared nvram, loaded optimized defaults and saved, manually adjusted all the settings, reinstalled / reconnected the remaining components.
I'm at a loss to explain this. MSI Tech Support says they can't help me because this involves overclocking and they're not allowed to provide advice.
Anyone have any ideas as to what could be causing this?
Thanks in advance for any help provided.

I've been experimenting with different combinations of FSB / Multipliers / Memory dividers. My best performance is with the CPU at 250 x12 for 3.0 GHz, and memory still at 3-3-2-8, 1:1 and 1T. This is all at stock voltages and I'm not willing to risk frying anything by raising it even a little bit. It's running fast, smooth and cool. That's all I'm looking for so that's as far as I'm going to take it.

I'm getting the same anomaly with the value for CPU Fan. That's the chipset fan speed for sure. It matches the BIOS reading and it's the only fan I have plugged into the mainboard. Everything else is running from a rheobus.
The NB temp on this mainboard is really exceptional. The NB on my old DFI SLI-DR routinely ran in the 48-49C range. I guess the MSI cooling solution is pretty efficient. One other thing though, I'm using Arctic Silencers on both of my graphics boards. The intake fan on the "slave" board is directly above one of the chipsets. That may be drawing an additional bit of heat off of the chipset.
As far as the voltage values, I'm getting the same skew with a different mainboard, BIOS and PSU so this looks like an Everest issue.
IMHO, if your machine isn't doing flakey things that can't be attributed to anything else then your PSU is adequate. If you do go with the Diamond Plus and SLI, I would suggest upgrading the PSU. It seems that the 1 kilowatt PSU's are all the rage now but in reality 700W is more than adequate. Adjustable potentiometers must be nice if you know what you're doing with them. I don't so I don't bother looking for that feature.
Hope this is helpful or at least of some interest.

C4380 Printer networks with AMD chip

Hi guys - I have to ex press my displeasure with HP in that when they discover an "issue" with a particular chipset which let's face it is a fairly fundamental piece of kit in a computer (it's not like you can just swap for another), why can't they release a complete download for software that works instead of just a patch?
I have been trying most of today on and off to get my Acer aspire one laptop with an AMD C60 processor to accept the printer software and enable wireless printing. It just does NOT work!!! I download this, download that, install this update and then that patch but I cannot get this thing to work at all!!!!
I have it printing ok on USB and then try to add device. I tell it it's a wireless printer, it identifies it correctly with the right IP address and when I select install it gets to 20 percent and then the red cross appears. It asks for retry which I try twenty times (because I am nothing if not persistent) and finally I sigh and accept the next button as it tells me it will install later..... Will it? No actually it never does!
So what's that all about then?
So HP - why not just write the software again which is probably copy and paste, then change the approriate bit of the code that didn't work with the AMD C50/60 chipset, then entitle it "Software bundle for AMD chip victims"?
Heeeeeeelp!!!!!

Hmmm..... this IS the official HP support forum isn't it? Impressive support I must say

Question about CPU FSB and K7N2-L

This is probably a nub question, but here goes anyway:
I currently have an 1800 XP Palomino processor which supports 266mhz fsb. I just installed this board with this processor and left all the jumpers at default. After reading the manual it says I should short jumper J11 (133/166mhz) on the mobo, and make the appropriate settings in the bios to achieve 266mhz for the cpu fsb. Now, I know it says this in the manual, but I thought I'd better make sure that this is the right procedure before I go ahead and do it so I don't screw anything up.
If anyone could help me out on this it would be greatly appreciated.
TIA

Cheers... it's interesting how many people make that mobo/RAM choice. I use a K7N2G-L with Crucial PC2700 DDR (2x256) and it works fine. Kudos on reading the manual, frequently it has the answers you're looking for. You're correct... make sure J10 (FSB Mode Jumper-133MHz position) and J11 (FSB Frequency Jumper-133/166 position) are set correctly, BIOS settings on the "Advanced Chipset Features" page are correct for your processor/RAM, and you should be all set. There is a good article on driver loading order (by liquidsoul) on the http://www.amdforums.com site... look under "MSI Motherboards".

Does Cool N Quiet + AMD Chip Driver = Video Card Overclocking?

For some odd reason, my 9800NP is automatically changing its clock rates on me. Never down, only up. Does N Quiet and/or the AMD Chip Driver impact your video card? Right now it booted at 378/330 which is a 9800Pro. I'm using the normal BIOS for a NP, but it does show up as a pro in the Display properties. Any ideas?

I think the Cool N Quiet software doen't like RadLinker/RadClocker. I enabled Cool N Quiet in the BIOS, but did not install the associated software. All better now!!

Amd cpus..what fsb etc etc

well ive no intention of writting it all so
start here
amd
it list all the codes and explains what they are
how to tell them apart

http://www.overclockers.com/tips00173/

Amd XP1900+ = FSB 133
Memory.... I personally would not bother with more than 2 256mb of ram sticks, as 512 mb is more than adequate. However you could consider getting a 512MB ram stick (Avalible) instead of two more 256's as you then have one slot remaining.
However i think that 512mb is more than enough.
Hope this helps.
