Barton 2500+ K7N2G-L How to overclock?

Hi
Im completely new to overclocking and I dont understand the jargon here and at overclockers.com.
Could anyone explain in simple words how I could speed up the system?
Ive heard there are some windows programs which do it, could this be that simple?

It would be best not to overclock untill you understand every thing about it and the terms.
1st if your running stock cooling i would not even try
2nd If you have the newer barton 2500+ then the CPU is locked and the wire trick does not even work, But older models are unlocked with the motherboard you bought. esay way to tell if you change the settings im going to mention its unlocked.
Over clock in the bios chage the FSB up in small increasements it should be default at 166 (333 CPU bus speed) and you can also change the multiplier it kind of works like this.
166FSB X 11multiplier = 1830MHz roughly (your CPU)
If you change something like this:
180FSB X 12multiplier = 2160MHz
but if you cant change these settings then your CPU is locked and you cant overclock unless you want to go some major altering your CPU.

Hlp. on Overclocking AMD Barton 2500+

BlueI need help on this overclocking matter.I just got this New AMD Athlon(tm) XP 2500+ Barton run on Ms-6734(KM4ML) MSI mainboard.
I 've read a lot about overclocking Aticle and found out the only way to clock is to go for this so call 'Multiplier'.but when I go thru my Bios setup there was no mutiplier?But the board say it support overclocking?
I did download CPU-z software.And it say my CPU speed are 1.83 Mhz.Pls.hlp me on this,I really need to know how to overclock this CPU a little far from 1.83Mhz?

to Alex66: i do not know much about your board, but try looking to the manual for some advice on the jumpers, and many boards today can go over the fsb limit, many p4 board have gone way over their 400fsb "limit", its just that chip companies dont use speeds that are "odd", so motherboard companies can make a mobo that works with a variety of chips, try to find out what those jumpers do or look around in bios, to see if u can change it "manual" or somethin
I did go into the Bios setup go thru the Frequency/Voltage Control this is what the manual say if I need to do some Overclocking.There only two option in Frequancy seting: Auto Detact DIMM/PCI CLK (Enable/Disable)
Spread Specrum (Disable/+/-025%,0.35%,0.50% and0.75%
If I need to overclock I have to Disable the Specrum?One thing I did too is I go for the jumpers too but the seting are still the same,the thing is that there no Multiplier could be seem in the Cmos?I dont know wat else can I do to overclock this board.Might be this board is non overclocke type but why does it say this board designed to support overclocking?Ahhhh.....wat a life I've got this board for...I really need help on?There must be a way.....:(

Overclock Barton 2500 with PC2700 memory

Using MSI K7N2 Delta L MB.
Want to overclock Barton 2500 [without and CPU mod]. But, memory is not overclockable.
Is there a way to overclock the CPU while keeping the memory running at 166/333?
When I've tried to raise the FSB of the CPU, I can't get the memory clock to stay at 166/333.
Thanks

dont run a fsb higher then the memory as its most likely to be slower.
you can try to increase the speed 3-4mhz at a time until it starts to crash and then you back off 5mhz.
or buy faster memory.
you can always raise multiplier.
im not sure but i think the highest you can go is 12.5 and if you chose higher it goes back to lower numbers.

Msi Kt333 woes with barton 2500

Hi,
I just got this new processor, the barton 2500 and my computer is very instable.
I have a Kt333 ultra 2 with bios 5.7 and it worked fine with an athlon xp1800+
I set up fsb 166 and everything else in auto and It will crash at random in winxp.
The culprit seems to be accessing the hard disk which is a Maxtor ATA133 7200rpm 60gb.
In one of the BSOD the file that caused the crash was ntfs.sys
I am now running the board at fsb 133 just so I can use the computer.
I have currently installed 1G ram, two sticks of 256m pc2700 and a newly acquired stick of 512 pc3300.
I have a Gf3 ti 200 128m at default settings.
What can I do to fix this without having to go out buy more hardware?
Thanks.

I don't think the KT333 suports ddr400(3200), the Bios 5.7 you have was to fix the 3200+ barton NOT the 3200 ram, So you can only run the DDR333 (2700) ram
and should never mix your ram it will cause nothen but trouble

Powers off above FSB of 133 (barton 2500)

Ok here we go....
K7N2 Delta ILSR
AMD (Barton) 2500
Mushkin 512MB 3200 In the Light green slot
Enhance 300W PSU
Fresh Install of XP Pro SP1
Copper cooler CPU Fan and heat sink
120MM Case fan
Big Ass Problem
First of all when I was installing XP from CD it would get to the starting windows screen and then just power off. The only way to start back up was to unplug the power supply and it would power back up.
I changed to the Bios to defaults and was able to get XP loaded. (Only running at 1100 on the processor)
Now when I change the FSB to 166 it will run for about 5 to 30 min and the power of issue is back. I change the FSB to 100 or 133 and it will stay on and I can even use it.
Could this be a memory issue or a heat issue? It has even powered of in the BIOS screen when I had the FSB on 166.
Any ideas?

Afternoon
Depends what else you've got on your system. My system runs fine with a generic 350W PSU - people will tell you that you need 500w beasts, but hey - Kingmax Memory is supposed to be stroppy with Deltas, but mine's fine The only thing I'd say is that if you've got more than 1 HDD and 1 CD/DVD, then you could do with pepping up the PSU.
Mine's been running non-stop since I got it, night and day, never hit more than 35C with stock cooling and no case fan, and never locked up. Yippee

Most of the time, this sort of problems arise because of power suppliy issues.. U have a enamax 300W PSU which is a VERY GOOD PSU but might just be on the line...
If u can, try swapping the PSu for a good 400 or a 420W PSU.. this might solve your enigma.. I really dont think this is your processor...
Read this two articles on PSu wrtten by one moderater which will aid in solve in fixing your problem (PSU1 , PSU2 , Troubleshooting Guide )

Hi, I want to get my new PC to recognize my Cannon multipass C-2500 machine. How can I do this?

Hi, I want to get my new PC to recognize my Cannon multipass C-2500 machine. How can I do this? I searched the list of printers and find a lot of Cannon inkjet references on my new Gateway computer but I don't find that one. I obviously want my machine to relate to my printer. Does the linkage require updated cannon printer drivers? Thanks for your answers on how to make them compatible.
Wayne Frye

Hi waynefrye,
The MultiPASS C2500 was release several years prior to Windows XP. While the printer can be installed on an XP or earlier system (official drivers are only available for ME and earlier), I'm guessing that you are using either Windows 8 or Windows 7 since this is a new computer.
The MultiPASS C2500 is not compatible with these new operating systems. Since your device is not supported under the current operating system, you are eligible for Canon's Loyalty Program.

MSI 6712 (KT4V) Problem AMD Ath Barton 2500+

Hi guys , im wondering if u can help me
ive got a AMD Barton 2500+ running @ 1498 instead of 18XX , ive tried the following,
Setting Vcore standard to 1.65
FSB 166 , System does not boot
FSB 133 , System thinks its a AMD 1900+
FSB 150 , System does not boot
FSB 100 , System thinks its AMD 1100
so now im running 1498mhz instead of 18XX mhz
every time i have to reset the bios to make it boot again ,
My memory = Whitelike 333 DDR 2x 256mb Pc 2700 (single sided)
My GFX = Chaintech Gf4 64mb AGP 4X
Running XP sp1a Professional
Any ideas setting it to 18XX ??
ive tried all the ratios 11 , 10 , 4 , 12.5 , 11.5 , 13.0 14 , 15 nothing seems to work
even setted the memory to 200mhz , that didn't work ...
Any ideas?

Well Mate - If the temperature in safe mode at the lower CPU Speed is that high then it means at the proper speed the temperature would be high enough to prevent the system from booting.
And according to what you wrote about the white paste I suspect that your installation of the heatsink is the cause of the problem - which brings us back to the point - have you tried re-installing the heatsink with a thermal pad - not the silicon paste as per AMD instructions?
Anf if after following AMD's installation instructions to the letter you still have the problem you may have a faulty CPU - but unfortunately you will find that you have voided your warranty if you have used any paste instead / as well as the original Thermal pad.

Spread Spectrum ---Disable--- why
Spread Spectrum is for unique situation where there are TONS of computers in close proximity and is used to prevent them from interfering with each other via emf. It is also less stable.
Quote
Q2 :Intel Turbo Boost ---enbled--- why
This would be enabled when using a turbo oc. It boosts the cpu multiplier when under load.
Quote
Q3 :Enhanced Turbo------ enbled----why
Enhances turbo operation by increasing the multiplier on all of the cores to the same amount.
Quote
Q4 :intrnal pll overvoltage -----enbled---- why
You can leave this on "auto" for most everyday overclocks. It increase voltage to the PLL a tab but can cause issues with sleep if you are using an everyday OC.

Hi,
If you're new to overclocking I would suggest you do a lot of reading on the subject. If you don't have proper cooling and know exactly what you're doing you had better have a deep wallet. I've had many people come to me with fried components because they were overclocking without having proper knowledge and experience. I have seen people come to these forums looking for help in overclocking only to get irate when things didn't go right. If you still want to go ahead with it their are plenty of sights on the subject, just do a search.
Good Luck

K7N2G-ILSR, Corsair TWINX512 3200, Barton 2500

Is anyone out there running this setup? I have read mixed things about the K7N2G-ILSR and Corsair TWINX512-3200LLPT 512MB DDR400 XMS3200 Dual-Channel Memory. Just wanted to make sure that the two actually work together. Thanks.
Scudd

Scudd,
Check to make sure that the RAM is nForce Approved. If you are not sure, call Corsair and ask them. Personally I only use the High Performance Level II Black Muchkin RAM and it is 100% Rock Solid Stable with nForce.
Take Care,

I cannot run a 10 x 200Mhz on my barton, it won't POST
it never will as board has only 1/5 divider so agp would be 80 and pci 40

How to overclock my x2 3800+ with K9N Ultra

My current rig as below:-
AMD X2 3800+ AM2 stock fan
MSI K9N Ultra (MS-7250 v2.0 but on board stated v2.1) bios upgraded from 3.2 to 3.5
1G DDR2 667 Kingston Value Ram x 2
MSI 8600GT-Overclock edition
Lite-on 20X Sata DVD-Ram
Seagate Sata2 320GB
WD Pata 120GB
Cooler Master 500W Extreme
Cooler Master Centurion 5
As I'd seen in many forums that a lots of people are able to archieve 2.4G~2.6GB easily but I don't know why I can only able to archieve highest at 2.3G only.
My current setting is as below:-
Multiplier - 10
HT - 230
HTT - 5X
FSB - 287.5
Ram divider - 533
Clock speed at 2300mHz stock vcore & vdimm 1.95
But the moment I try to increase the HT to 240 or higher it tends to be unstable even I increase the vcore and vdimm.
Can someone advise me on this matter.

Quote from: BOSSKILLER on 10-May-07, 12:03:37
"Besides that I'd also tried to set HTT to 3x and loosen the ram timing to 5-5-5-15-20 2T. vcore at 1.45 vdimm 2.0 and HT set to 240 but it won't boot."
try with lesser steps. give CPU vcore only when need. what is your actual memory frequency at latest good OCed settings?
"Btw I'd not seen the function "DOT & aggressive memory timings" where am I suppose to disable it?"
aggressive memory timings option doesn't exist in your BIOS, DOT(Dynamic Overclocking) its Disabled by default, but ensure it.(located in Cell Menu).
"My PCI-E has set to 104Mhz. Coz I'd seen some forum advise to set to 104Mhz. So actually 103Mhz or 104Mhz will be more stable?"
nop will be the same.
provide screenshots from CPU-Z with your last good known OCed settings.
I'd set to disable on dynamic overclock all the time. btw I'd upload the link CPU-Z validation but I don't know how to put attachment thats why I upload the link.
