Best BIOS for DTR CPU

Wondering if anybody with a DTR CPU can tell me which BIOS version they know will work. I can boot at a 4x lock, and then proceed to windows for full speed via clockgen right now, but that is with the defacto shipping BIOS version.
I have a 3200+ DTR and am getting zero results with overclocking (actually currently underclocked to 9x200 for full prime95 testable stability). I want to try a new BIOS, but the last thing I need is to lock myself out by updating to a version which won't even boot a DTR.
Questions, comments, answers? Fire away, and thanks in advance.

First off, thanks for the quick reply Ish. What improvments went into 1.2b5, do you know? Did it help your overclocking results at all? Also, I just wanted to mention that tedinde from the overclockers.org forum noted that half multi's can be detrimental to stability and performance. Thanks again for the info, I'll track down a copy of 1.2b5 and see what happens...
Are you using a raid0 by the way? I'm wondering if that might be why my setup won't o/c worth a so far...

K8n neo nf3 250: best bios for OC.

Hi.
What is the best bios for overclocking on msi k8n neo fsr/platinum. I use bios 1,47 now, but i think it is playing games with me.
I have no problem running my cpu at 10/255/2550, but my Ocz 3500 EB wont follow that long on 1:1. So i tried running this at 9/280/2520 and my memory running at 5/6. But my cpu wont get totally stabil here...
My temperatures here is 32c idle and 48c load.
Is there a better bios for OC?

Try 1.42

BIOS support for DTR Cpu's

Just wondering if anyone knew if MSI was working on better support for DTR and mobile Cpu's with it's next bios revision?
It's neat that I can get my CPU to run 1.5v and 10x multi through clockgen, but It'd be really nice if I could just set it and forget it in bios...

I realy hope so, as i can only run it at proper mutlipliers with 1 memory stick in slot 1, not sure if this is because of the corsair memory, or the boards support for dtr's (i think it is the later).

K8N Neo2 Best bios for Opteron 146?

Hi guys,
Forgive the rather basic question, but I haven't been around for a long time and things have moved on a piece.
I am running an old Athlon 64 3200+ in my Neo2, with a very old bios. (See my sig below for current specs.) Heck, if it works, don't mess with it! But tomorrow a new Opteron 146 arrives, so I guess I will need to update the bios.
So what's the recommendation for the best bios to go for?
Will I be OK in "jumping" so many bios versions, or would it be best to do it incrementally?
And finally, I remember some issues about Windows not booting after upgrading the bios. Has this been resolved, or will I need to do a clean Windows install as well? I really *do not* want to have to do a clean install. That would be horrendous.
Thanks for any advice.
Cheers
Chippy

9x290 (2,6Ghz) is a very good OC, passing prime95 with both core´s tested.
I can't complain about a 45% OC... Started with 1.8Ghz.
Quote from: bejon2000 on 02-February-06, 15:13:05
I "only" manage 10x270 ( 2,7Ghz) primestable so far with my DFI and X2 3800+, since one core gets unstable at 2.8Ghz and beyond.
( But I´m still happy, running Pi at 33sec with 3-3-3-7 RAM / Sandra cpu benchmark gives 24.067mips and Sandra mem.benchmark 6.733mbs )
What kind of voltages are you running to get your OC?
I think that I'm starting to reach the limit of what my Neo2 Plat can supply to the Opty - In BIOS, I specified 1.5v+5% and it gives me only 1.45v or so....

Best Practices for Optimizing CPU and Memory

It would be really helpful if someone would summarize the best way to set things up between Concert Level, Set Level, and Patch level, along with using aliases, to make sense of the most efficient ways to set up a new concert in MainStage. I have spent quite a bit of time messing with it all, and have a pretty good understanding, but a summarized document and "rules" would be very helpful.
As an example, I have two guitars that plug into separate inputs in my hardware interface. But I want to use the same channel strip for both (with plug-ins for effects and lead sounds). So, I have some patches that select Input 3 for one guitar, and Input 4 for the other. Am I duplicating all of my plug-ins and effects by doing this, or is there a more efficient method?
I have come across similar "puzzles" when using MainStage, and can always make things work, but am never quite sure what is most efficient. Has anyone seen such a document or best practices guide? Or can you just share your learnings here?

As far as I know, the only load on the CPU is the active patch. All the others are 'bypassed' according to the manual. My own experience backs up this claim. When I experiment with sounds - several synths with complex FX plugins - I usually put a large CPU meter on my layout to monitor the load. The load seems to be fairly similar whatever channel strips & synths I have. (NB normally I only have one synth in each set. If I have several synths in one set, that does change the load.)
FX including Amp Designer don't put as much load on the processor as synths as far as I can see.
Amp settings are a bit of a nuisance as you can't call up Amp Designer settings from a controller yet. That means if you need more than one amp setting, you will need more than one instance of Amp Designer. In that case, you might as well load it in each set's channel strip. You shouldn't notice any gain in CPU load.
Pedal Board: if you have a consistent set of pedals that you move between all the time, then put the board in an Aux channel. That way, you will only have to set up the controls once. My GP guitar pedal board layout is Wah, Overdrive, Delay, Chorus & Flange. All have Bypass buttons allocated & some have extra controls set e.g. Chorus & Flange parameters & Delay times. The Overdrive usually has a fairly comprehensive set of controls depending on the pedal I choose.
This allows me to change the sounds quite a lot with a minimum of controls.
Do you put your sound into a guitar amp or a PA system? I put my rig into a PA from the computer. I have found that I get the best, most 'natural' electric sound by not using Amp Designer, but by using Channel EQ instead. I have an EQ patch that sounds very close to a Peterson clean channel (Peterson amps are an English made transistor amp that sounds rather like a Mesa Boogie 20 watt valve amp). When I add FX to that, I can get a very wide range of amp sounds very easily. It might be worth while exploring EQ settings.

[AMD] Whats the best BIOS for overclocking on the K8N Neo-2 Platinum

any one know which one is best.
thanks

I have no idea what biosversion that is the best in general for OC the K8N Neo2 P.
I use 1.5 and it´s the only version I´ve used.
I believe not many people have tested OC potential for all 6 versions 1.0 - 1.5.
( even more if you include the beta´s).
I would say OC potential depends more of what hardware you are going to use.
Good RAM and a good CPU stepping are in most cases more important then biosversions.

Best BIOS for the job? (K8N Neo4f)

I have, as stated in the subject, a K8N Neo4F mobo and an AMD Venice core CPU. I have read that there are BIOS specifically tailored for Venice core, and some are not. Which version of BIOS should I be using to optimize my system? Honestly, as I am not at home, I'm not even sure which I have, but I believe it is 1.6. I do seem to be hitting the same walls that I have read other people hit without a BIOS modded for Venice core. Is there any truth to this? I am still rather new to all of this, as this is my first build, would it not be advisable to start messing with this stuff?
Thanks for any help.

Is there any problem with your hardware? If you don't have any problems do not flashed it as it might cause you problem unless it has a problem then you have no choice to flashed it. Many ppl used Ver 1.9 while other's don't. You may look into this forums where you have the same spec's of yours.See from my sig as it might help you how to flashed the bios. Gd luck.

Best Bios for OC 865pe Neo2 LS

as my OC has become unstable when upgrading to 2.1, i wonder with which bios version the members of this forum are able to achieve the highest OC!
i will downgrade maybe to 1.9?
please post your thoughts and results.....

I found bios v1.9 the best so far, only a few fsb points difference between this and 2.0 and 2.1 but much better than anything else below 1.9, also the most stable for my setup ( see sig ).

Best bios for z68-gd65 G3

I am using the latest bios from the msi website (v25.8) and have a 2600K. Ever since upgrading to the newer bioses with the new management engine, my overclocking potential has really gone down.
I ran at 4.6 Ghz stable before but now I am struggling with 4.3 GHz. I have tried to increase the voltage but that has very little impact on the stability.
So do you have any input on what bios revision would be the best for overclocking a SB on this motherboard?
I have seen post making it possible to downgrade the ME aswell?
Regards M

Ivy bios versions won't work well for oc with Sandy cpus on 6 series chipsets.
You can try the betas with suggested method: https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=163866.0
To be sure you can downgrade to the latest Sandy version 22.8 with the following method (it won't work any other way!):
>>Use the MSI HQ Forum USB flasher<< and with it point to the attached and NOT unpacked (!) bios archive (Mode 1: Point to Archive). After flashstick has been prepared boot from it and let it flash the bios.

MSI GT70 0ND-219US Bios settings for fastest cpu, and maybe gpu performance?

What is the best BIOS's settings (I have the unlocked BIOS)
For overclock cpu on startup and GPU

Honestly? Stock. There's little to no performance gain overall for the CPU.
You can't change the GPU performance from the BIOS.
If you're asking these types of questions, you're probably better off not changing anything without doing a TON of research first. There's plenty of website out there that detail what you can do, and why, and how it really isn't very effective (especially in the mobile space) just because you can't increase it as much as you can on the desktop space (in some cases).
Unless you have upgraded the CPU from the 3610 that was originally installed in your laptop, overclocking is really pointless.

Best Bios in your opinion for Neo2 Plat

Trying all these bios's myself but just curious as to what you ppl have found to be the best bios for your setup with overclocking in mind.
The best I can do so far with my crappy samsung TCCC chips is 265X9.5 or 250X10.5
Also any Ideas why system won't boot overclocked and setting CPU multi to an even number meaning 8,9,10,11,12 the only stable boots I can get are with a half number 9.5, 10.5, 11.5 or 12
Thanks for your thoughts and comments.

Well at 245x10.5 your RAM is running at 233......(245x10.5)/11...
As stated before when half multipliers are used, the RAM is divided by the next whole multiplier.
Also, at 3 and 4 multi, your RAM is not running at the speed you think it is either, but slower.
A full multiplier table can be seen here, posted by Oskar Wu, a DFI mobo tech http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/showthread.php?t=41595&highlight=multiplier+table
Thank you thank you. Now it totally all makes sence. I know I have a really chitty ram but now it makes sence that it won't go that high in ram frequency.
But my question still stands what bios to you all like to use on this mobo.
