Arctic NV Silencer 5 + ZM-NB47J on Neo-Plat

I'm thinking about buying the arctic silencer 5, but I wonder does that silencer fit combined with a passive northbridge cooler on the chipset? it seems kinda big, and don't wanna buy something that turns out to be utterly useless

Dont think it will be a problem. I was just about to buy that one too but I had a check at my G card and found out that the heatsink wasnt realy fastened. fixed it and now my temp is 50,5oC (droped 7oC) @ idle. So that makes me satisfied for the moment my Gainward 6800GT GS runns @ 420/1200 totaly stable.

Arctic Cooler Silencer 1 for Radeon 9800

Anyone know where I can find a Arctic Cooler Silencer 1 for Radeon 9800? Or do you know if the Acceleron s2 will fit in a G4 Sawtooth with this v card?
Thanks

Hi-
Just don't let the fan get dirty. The 9800 is a hot card, and too much heat is bad. Since you also have a processor upgrade, you are adding lots of heat. The heat also affects the PSU, because it is all removed through the PSU, and hot air doesn't cool well. Hot PSU's, don't produce good power.
Another cooling option (and a good one) is a PCI slot fan that exhausts to the outside of the tower.
This Thermaltake has really good airflow, and will help cool your entire system.

Xp-120 on msi neo plat (754) with arctic rev3 agp cooler

I want to put a thermalright xp-120 on my msi neo plat s754 board. looking at some pics, the heatpipes seem very close to the agp slot.
I have an arctic cooling rev3 cooler on my connect3d 9800pro, and I'm not sure if there is enough clearance between the heatpipe and the bracket on the side of the AGP card.
anyone else got this setup working ?
thanks

Please elaborate a bit more on the results.. what were the actual temperature difference? what was the noise difference? did you o/c? etc etc etc...
The results you posted there mean totally nothing since you don't state on what grounds you placed them on those places.

Stock fan problems, Arctic Cooling Silencer Ultra 64 and MSI Neo4 Platinum

Hi,
A few days ago, the stock-fan of my Amd-64 CPU(+3000) started to running at 4500-5000 rpm at default speed, when before it had always done at 3000-3300. (official maximum stock amd-fan speed I think). To avoid so high and noisy default speeds, I have activated “Smart CPU Fan Target” in Bios to keep CPU under 50 º C and obviously now speeds are much lower. It helps to diminish the noise and to minimize the fatigue of fan, but obviously CPU run hotter. Even though I think it is in a safe range of temps (40 – 50 ºC). Nevertheless I’m worried about the odd behaviour of stock fan and what could happen in the future...
I wonder what could be wrong, cpu-fan, motherboard regulation cpu-fan system.
NB fan seems to work as always, running at 5000 rpm as ever (speed regulated by fan-mate 2). Not change is noted about.
I should aprecciate any suggestion about what is wrong ?
On the other hand, I have thought to substitute the stock-heatsink+fan by Arctic Cooling Silencer Ultra 64. But I have some doubts about it.
Does it fit in a Neo4 MB ?
I wonder if is possible to control the speed of Arctic Cooling Silencer Ultra 64 (not TC model) by Bios or under Windows via Core-Center as stock-cpu-fan is?
If anyone was so kind to help me.
Thank you very much,
M. Lin.

One idea is, try to disconnect your current HSF and see what happens.
I think nothing will happen because there is no alarm for it in this board...
Be well....
Thanks for the idea, but I think that it would be more prudent to wait for views about, of some owner of cpu-cooler-fan (thermal regulated or not), witch being set to start to turning at very low revolutions (ie:0--500) when computer power on.

I have the "no TC" version of the cooler. Maybe you missunderstood me. The mobo can controll the speed of the hsf. I can watch (with Everest 2.01) that it controls the speed between 2300 an 2000 rpm. The only thing i can't watch and therfore cannot confirm is how low the speed goes under 2000 rpm. Everest shows nothing when the speed goes under 2000 rpm and the core center tool from msi shows only "low", but no digits. Im sure, the fan turns with less than 2000 rpm but i don't no whether with 1500 or with 1900 or such. I can only confirm that the cooler is very silent when it turns with less than 2000 rpm. Then i dont hear the cpu-fan but only the other fans of my system (gpu, northbridge; five 80mm Papst Case fans). The Pabst fans stock rpm ist 2000 but i regulate them down to about 1300-1500.
For the northbridge i remove the stock cooler that turned with 8000 rpm. Now i use a Titan Copper VGA Cooler, TTC-CUVAB/RHS. The stock rpm of this cooler is 4500 rpm. I use the small Zalman Fan Control for this one to regulate it down to 3200 rpm. Measured with a temp probe the temp of the northbridge is now at 45 to 50 degrees C. I think thats a good compromise between heat and noise.
Yes, excuse me, at first I had misunderstood you. I interpreted that your cpu-fan was unable to turn under 2000 revolutions. I means only could be regulated between 2000 and 2300 rpm. But now, I'm quite sure what you means. Your tell me that the speed of the your cpu-fan is adjustable in all its range, from 0 to 2300, only that when it turns at least of 2000, the rpm reader programs are unable to report the speed. ok?

M Lin, why r u so set on this silencer product....here is a madshrimps review on a64 heatsinks. I would go with the xp90 for the same price or less. The link is here:
http://www.madshrimps.be/?action=getarticle&articID=224
Thank you for your advice, I already knew it was a poor performer compared to what you refer me, but, firstly, I have a chronic immune illness due which I suffer some disabilities that makes difficult to do manual labours myself . Second I use my computer for office-surfing-programming purposes. So my power needs are low, -I own a +3000 amd-64-, compared to most of you, I think (I’m not doing over clocking too).
To sum up, I’m going to pick this cooler (fan+heatsink) because is as easy of installing as stock one, enough to cool my cpu... (slightly better than stock one), and very cheap in my country. There is no more reasons to choose it.
A lot of thanks to all.

Hi everyone,
Suddenly for 4 days ago my pc wouldn't boot up when I pressed the on button(infront). So I toggled the on&off button on my psu and after a few tries my pc booted up. So in the next few days I did the same thing. Weird I tought, since I haven't done anything with my PC.
And when I would turn off my pc it wouldn't shutdown properly, it just stod there after windows was shutdown, still it would just be running.
So today I had enough and checked inside the pc. I found the Power switch cable was disconnected from JFP1 , no problem, i'll just plugg it back I thought...
Then again I tried both sides and tried booting with the button & on&off on PSU, didn't help.
It only started up(with on&off with psu), all fans were running and light from gfx card, but it didn't get any signals from monitor nor would cd-rom eject. So it was on, but not booting up to windows or bios...
Also looking at my manual I noticed I'm missing the POWER LED cable in JFP1. I've searched high and low, only found 3-pin POWER LED in JFP2.
Where is this missing Power led with 2 pins ? Is this cable important?
Is my psu dieing?
Can anyone help this gal in desperate need of help?

MIST PSUs is manufactured specially by a reputated PSU manufacturer to a dedicated entusiast shop in norway aimed to silent computing among other things .
MIST as a brand is dedicated to silence .
They have also come out with CPU-coolers , watercooling , case fans , etc in the MIST line .
Theese PSUs are well known by overclockers and people wanting sileced products and is top of the line .
The previous MIST psus were based on FSP/CWT PSUs and MIST where modified silenced models and thourougly tested exclusively for microplex.
With their new one there have been some secrecy from them about who they have been working with to manufature the current sample .
The shop has now had a deeper role in setting demands of the products and specs and component choice of the psu to be produced together with the manufacurer.
It's said that the latest one has been under development over almost one year , and microplex has rejected several
samples before they got it like they intended .
(i have a hunch that it's the danish chill-innovation they have worked toghether with)
This new one is a atx 2.01 based one with two indipendent +12v rails each at 18A , -36A of +12v , and it's efficiancy is very high over the whole specter.
Max. @ +3.3V and +5V together is 275W.
Max. @ +12V1 and +12V2 together is 380W.
Max. @ all outputs together is 500W .

K8N Neo Plat SM Bus Controller Problems

Hi, I just did a recent build witht the K8N Neo Plat and am having some problems.
My original build kept getting corrupt files from any self extractor that did a self verify. I could install windows and the MSI NForce Drivers but many files got corrupted. I finally figured out it was Bad Ram and replaced the PC 3200 I Was using with a stick of PC 2700 I had lying around. I installed windows with no problems and all of the windows updates(which were where I was getting corrupt files). But then when I installed the NForce3 Drivers from the MSI Cd I get blue screen of death, which I did not recieve with the bad ram. I then revert to last known good setting and can install of of the NForce3 drivers except for SM Bus Controller. I have tried using the NForce3 Drivers from the MSI CD and a download version. Both won't install, it still shows up with an exclamation point next to it in device manager. I have tried choosing the driver directly, but I get an accessed denied message. The only problem is when SM Bus won't install, I cant run my new 6800 GT at AGP 8X. It stays stuck in PCI mode.
Also I see a lot of talk about CPU Temps reported by BIOS. I am using the 1.1 Bios, and it shows the CPU running at 65-70C. Core Center shows this also. Is this just a misreported temp? Im using a 3400+ CLawhammer CG Revision with a Zalman 7000 ALCu with Arctic SIlver 5, the HSF seems to be screwed down completely, but the temp reading still makes me nervous.
Thanks for any help.

apply minimal heat paste
clamp sink down switch machine on
the prob is not the heat the prob is the chip clocking 8ghz
the sink and fan work really well
the bios is version 1.5 public
i'm trying to back flash it but i need version 1.1 .1.2. 1.3 and the prog to fash it
and an explanation (it's my first time lol)

Try raising RAM voltage to 2.7v - 2.8v.
If no go - Run Memtest86 http://www.memtest.org/#downiso
If no go - Try onboard Audio ( disable / remove Audigy2 )

Did I burn my NEO Plat?

Hello,
hope someone has an idea that could help me but i fear i burnt my Neo Plat
The story so far:
A friend of mine bought a new tower chassis, and he found its front panel usb ports were not working, at least any connected devices were not recognized. Since usb connection seemed correct on his mobo he asked me if he could connect his panel to my Plat USB Ports in order to find out if ths usb panel was really junk.
So i said yes (which i now severely regret), and we connected his panel to my Neo Plat. On first boot up, everything was fine, than I went to Bios in order to check whether i had activated all usb ports (since i normally don´t use usb myself). after exiting the bios the board would report that it hat set itself to "safe mode" and my fsb was reset to 201 (?) (down from 220 oc´ed). That had never happened before but i was stupid enough to not hesitate but make a reset and system would boot up ok then.
We found that even through my board his front panel didn´t work and so i set everything back to normal, and reconnected my thermaltakes front usb.
But when I booted my sys afterwards a terrible smell (!) and a constant deep buzz from the pc speaker would make me disconnect it from power immediately.
I checked everything, wiring or if anyhing had shortened on the board but everything seemed ok!
So i boot up again and sys would at least go as fat as win boot option menu, than same thing again. Now system holds before memcheck. D Bracket is 1 green 2 red 3 red 4 green. I´m too tired to look further inot this now but it seems i somehow was stupid enough to burn my beloved Platinum by my very own hands .
Now I wonder if maybe anyone on this great board has any suggestions, ideas what it could be- i recall the complete d-bracket codes were explained somewhere but i cannot find them right now
Well I hope to get some sleep now, any help from you guys would be really really appreciated...

DrCool
I must disagree with your sweeping statement, having just switched over from an ageing tower case, mainly to enjoy the benefits of front usb/fireware ports.
Quote
the ports on 3rd party cases, are as non-platform specific as possible.
- is advantage My very cheap case had single wire, well labelled plugs so i was easily able to plug them into my mobo connectors with reference to the pin outs in the manual.
As a result both usb & 1394 worked 1st time
I must admit to being guilty of doing a bit of research 1st on my new case
The key here is to recognise that there can be issues & be prepared.
This as we've seen most notably with the Antec Sonata & our mobos can be an issue otherwise.
have great sympathy with noob256, it's one of those knee jerk things we all do from time to time & unfortunately regret.

Msi k8n neo plat problems

I have built 2 computers exactly the same.
msi k8n neo plat
512 corsair xms ddr 3200
8og sata maxtor
amd 64 3200
128mb ati 9800 pro
asus cd drive
When i tried to install windows xp pro on both the machines i got the same error. could not copy file. On each try the file was a different one. After hours of trying new things i found that putting the memory in slot 2 on the motherboard solved the problem, windows installed and booted up as norm. When i moved the memory back to slot 1 the computer would not boot.
I have now left the memory in slot 2 but the computer will still crash every hour.
I am sure this is something to do with the memory but not sure what the problem is.
Can anyone help.

Can anybody tell me what i should set the cpu fsb frequency to in the bios.
I just read this in the faq
What is the fsb speed of this cpu?
Depending on which FSB you are asking about: The Athlon 64's have the memory controller built in (which was previously part of the Northbridge on the motherboard) which uses up to 200MHz DDR Memory (400MHz FSB) The HyperTransport link from the CPU to the rest of the motherboard runs up to 800MHz. Just to expand on my answer... The HT link is 800MHz, but it's 16 bit in size (2 bytes worth of data per clock) the total bandwidth of the HyperTransport link is 3.2GB in total - 1.6GB sending data to CPU and 1.6GB receiving data from CPU.

Thermaltake Venus 12 + K8N Neo Plat

Has anyone used the Thermaltake Venus 12 and the KN8 Neo Plat? Im getting a OEM 3200+ with 1MB cache.
Also is there any speed differance between the 3200+ 1MB and the 512k versions?
-Thanks Chris.

I am using Venus 12. It works very well. My CPU temp at idle is 43c and load 45c. Three hours of Desert Combat and 45c is not too shabby

XP 64 + K8n neo plat question

Will the very newest nforce drivers for windows XP 64 work for my board??

If you mean the 'standalone' nforce4 drivers on the nvidia website I believe so?
Only don't install the nvidia sound drivers coz the NEO plat uses creative.

Neo plat 1(7030) + OCZ mem

Just wondering if anybody has tried OCZ PC-4000 Dual Channel Voltage eXtreme (2x512) 500Mhz on the neo plat. I know I won't get the 3+ volt I need to take full advantage of it, but I'm hoping that it will allow me to get a high fsb w/ 1t using bios version 2.1.
Any thoughts?

sswilson,
Timings 3.4.4.8 should work with it. (If you run it at 200Mhz you should be able to run 2.2.2.6) It is pretty much the same chips that Mushkin used with they high voltage Redines.
Take Care,
Richard

Msi Neo Plat & A64 3000

Hi guys
Well finally after a few months of waiting ive got rid of my stock A64 cooler and had chance to fiidle with some overclocking i really would like some advise on my recent overclcock perhaps some of you guys know where i might be able to tweak my system alittle bit here's the details
System
A64 3000+
MSI Neo Plat
2 X 512mb Crucial Ballistix PC4000
Radeon x800 pro Vivo
Hiper 450w PSU
60gig seagate IDE HDD
80gig seagate SATA HDD
Cooling
Thermalright SLK-978u
Artic Cooling rev4
so far i have reached this
FSB 235 x 10 @ 1.65v mem @ 2.5,3,3,10 @ 1.70v
temps are around 39
3DMark 2001 = 23766
3DMark 2003 = Havent try'd yet :p
So are my mem timings good ive try'd higher FSB but couldn't seem to get it without upping my volts, im thinking that it might be my memory settings holding me back but not really sure
Cheers for reading
craig

Second double sided dimm in the 7030's seem to really give it headaches. WILL NOT run @ 1:1 no matter what I do. Automatically defaults it to 166 divider no matter what slots or bios settings I try. I managed to get them to run @ 200 by OC'ing to 240fsb but even then I had to use way worse timings than they would do by themselves. OCZ is the only manufacturer I have found that makes a 1 Gig stick that runs at the same timings as their 512 Mb sticks. When I get one of those babies I'll really be able to see what this thing will do @ 1:1. Probaly only get to 220 or so with pc3200 but doing it @ 1:1 with good timings will be sweet!

Need help upgrading BIOS - K8N Neo Plat

HELP!!!
I have bios 1.1 on my K8N Neo Plat. I have been trying all morning to upgrade my bios to 1.3, but have been unsucessful so far. Note that I do NOT have any fancy MSI programs installed (I don't like bloat).
Sooooo, I donloaded bios 1.3 from the MSI website. This is a little zip file. Then, I tried the following....
1) Install from an XP boot floppy. -- Flashing the bios appeared to work, but upon reboot, ver 1.1 was still there.
2) Install from Win98SE boot floppy. -- Same story. Flash appeared to work, but 1.1 was still present.
For both type of boot floppies, the flash program says that it is currently re-programming the bios, and it exits normally, without any errors. The filename that I was loading a file called "W7030NMS.130".
3) Just for giggles, I downloaded bios ver 1.1, and use the "FC" command to be certain that they were different.
4) I checked my BIOS screens for any hint of BIOS protection, but could not find any.
5) The readme file that came with the ver 1.3 said to work from the hard drive, but boot floppies do not seem to like NTFS. So I simply cannot do it this way unless I re-partition and re-format.
Any ideas???

Try making a boot floppy with this.
Thats Dr DOS Disk For Bios Flashing from http://www.bootdisk.com
It's pure DOS, and will work with any OS.

MSI K8N NEO PLAT + CD / DVD-RW Drives

Hi, i have the msi k8n neo plat. I recently had to replace my old mobo due to the old power supply blowing or something. So i got me a 480watt enermax coolergiant psu. Replaced the mobo for a new msi k8n neo plat. Put the mobo in and psu. Working fine and dandy. Now i installed 64bit xp to primary, and ive had it running for for about 2 weeks. Went to install linux to the second hard drive, so i changed the boot order, saved settings and went to load disc...however now my cd and dvd drives dont work, and they dont work in windows either.

Can anybody tell me what i should set the cpu fsb frequency to in the bios.
I just read this in the faq
