Best bios settings for K8T Neo + Athlon 64 3200+ + ATI 9700 Pro ?

Hi, i just got my k8T Neo (MS-6702) and can't figure out the best/most stable settings in the bios for my system yet. I am mainly using my computer for GAMES, so this is what i am talking about when i say "optimization"
I got an ATI 9700 Pro, an Athlon 64 3200+ and 2x512 mb of Kingston Value Ram (bank 1 and 2).
The main settings i really don't know how to set are:
-Internal Cache
-External Cache
-System Bios Cacheable
-C000, 32k Shadow
-MPS Revision
-AGP Fastwrite
-AGP Aperture Size
I wish i could get rid of any instability problems, i had a few crashes so far. Yet, i would like to set my system to get the most of my hardware in terms of speed.
Thanks in advance for your help guys !

internal cache-on
external cache-on
system bios-disabe
c shadow stuff-disable
agp fastwrite on unless you have problems, you'll know fast
agp apperature size..depends on sys ram if over 512 best to atleast 128, if not 256
(official recomadation is 1/2 your system ram)
disable any onboard stuff you dont use like sound,sata controlers,  
quick boot enable. smart enable
logo disable, floppy drive seek disable,
 i wouldnt mess with mps table version.
power management to s3 usb wake enable..power management agm-disable
suspend time-disable-...set wakeup events hit enter, choose kbc & or mouse.
that should get you started.

  • Best BIOS settings for Kt3 Ultra2 and Geforce4?

    Hi,
    Can someone tell me what the best BIOS settings would be for my KT3 Ultra2 running a Geforce4 ti4200?
    I get crappy scores in 3dMark2001 SE and I have the infamous stuttering/crashing problems in 3D games.  I've tried pretty much every configuration of settings and drivers I can think of.  
    I saw on these forums that the Kt3 Ultra2 can be a bit fussy with GF4 cards.  If someone could post the best BIOS settings for performance and stability I'd be eternally grateful.
    Alternatively, email me at [email protected] with them.
    Thanks in advance

  • Best BIOS Settings for Performace?

    Hi Guys,
    I am new to all this PC stuff, i was a mac user for the last 8 years. At the moment i am learning all this stuff on the Bios - can anybody help me out give me the best settings for my PC (without overclocking)? I understand if i disable cool n quiet - i will get better performance.
    my info:
    AMD 64 3200+
    K8T Neo FIS2R Mainboard
    2 x 512MB DDR400 (1 gig totalling) Kingston
    9600XT Bravo (powercolor) 128MB
    550W Antec True Power Supply
    TT Venus 12 CPU Fan
    Idle - 36 - 37c
    Full load - 41 - 45c
    I ran the 3dmark03 (demo) and the score came up 4005 - i am not sure if this result is how it should be but i really think its slow compared to my mate's 2600 XP running 9700pro and getting a score of around 5500.
    Any suggestions/tips would be appreciated.

    3dMark03 is very GPU-demanding, and your mate's 9700pro is a faster card then your 9600XT.
    Try runing 3dMark01 and it whill test the hole system more or less.

  • Best Bios Settings for stability/performance on Neo2 Platinum?

    My sys has been running for several days and has cut off twice.  Wondered if any of my settings in Bios could be responsible.  Before getting to the general questions about the Bios, wanted to ask for answers to questions generated after running Sis Sandra Lite. 
    1.  SMBios/DMI info may be inaccurate 
    2.  Check vCore settings.  vCore less than rated minimum
    3.  Check to see if Bios is being shadowed
    My responses to the above:
    1.  Don't know what to do
    2.  Cool 'N Quiet says my vCore is 1.06, but the BIOS says 1.45.  What's up?
    3.  In Bios I have "system bios cacheable" enabled, so doesn't that take care of shadowing?
    I've been spending a lot of time in the Bios and realize there are several things that I have left at default because I don't know what the #@!* they are.  Can anyone give suggestions on best choices for these settings: 
    1.  Advanced Bios Features:
         Gate A20=Fast (Other Options=Normal)
         APIC Function=Enabled (Disabled)
         MPS Table Version=1.4 (1.1)
    2.  Advanced Chipset Features
         AGP Aperture Size=128 (32,64,256,512)
         AGP Fastwrite=Enabled (Disabled)
    3.  Onboard I/O Chip Setup
         EPP Mode Select= EPP1.7 (EPP1.9)
         ECP Mode USE DMA=3 (1)
    4.  Power Management
         Sleep State=S1(POS)  (S3(STR))
         Video Off Method=DPMS Support (Blank Screen, V/H Sync+Blank)
    5.  Cell Menu
         High Performance Mode= Manual (Optimized)
         Spread Spectrum=Enabled (Disabled)
         Adjust AGP Frequency=66 (67, 68, ...73)
         Adjust CPU VID=startup (1.4,1.425,1.450 ...1.550)
         Adjust CPU Ratio=startup (4, 4.5, 5, ...7)
    In general:
    Voltages stable in CNQ & Bios
    CPU Temps=low 40's
    Sis Sandra and Performance Test, based on Prime95, didn't ring any bells about my memory.  I downloaded mem86, but don't know how to use it.  Any advice, does it run under Windows?
    I'm throwing a lot of stuff at you, but i would appreciate any and all advice.     

    Quote
    1.  Parallel Port=SPP.  Do you recommend this instead of EPP/ECP? 
    Sorry don't use it so can't help Leave on default i would guess
    Quote
    2.  Spread Spectrum=Disabled  What does it do and why is it better disabled?
    see [ur=https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=54798.0l]The Complete Guide to Spread Spectrum  [/url] If you go into the cell menu & watch the spread spectrum whilst you increase saty the FSB from 200 you will see spread spectrum turn itself off. So to some extent you can leave it to look after itself. But there have been occasions when disabling it has helped stability.

    3.  Why does Cool 'N Quiet report such a different vCore (1.06) from the Bios (1.45)? It also reports 201 Mhz X 5 = 1004Mhz.  In the Bios the Front Side Bus is 200
    Do you mean CoreCentre with Cool'n'Quiet enabled ?? Another Good Read  Cool 'n' Quiet FAQ The 201 instead of 200 is normal

  • Help finding the Best BIOS settings for P67A-C45 (2)

    Hello again folks
    I Have a P67A-C45 board with an Intel i5 [email protected] and 8Ghz DDR3@1600 of memory
    I just want to know what are the best setiings to my system. I'm planning to make an overclock, but i don't know much about these.
    My ram are at 1333 MHz. What's the problem????

    Quote
    My ram are at 1333 MHz. What's the problem?
    Your CPU only natively supports up to 1333mhz memory. Your memory sticks, although rated to run up to DDR3-1600 speed, are only natively DDR3-1333.
    Hence, if you have not applied any overclocks, and are running at default settings, the BIOS is reading the default native SPD setting for your memory, which will be DDR3-1333 settings. So no, there is no problem really. In order to run your sticks at their rated setting, you will need to overclock.
    But, you might want to have a read of this:
    https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=147704.0
    If you have more questions about overclocking, then please ask them in the correct area of this forum (the Overclockers area), after first reading the >>Posting Guide<<

  • Best Bios settings for my new rig

    Hi there
    I have just put a new rig together & at the risk of soundin like a newb am a little stuck with the Bios. Am used to Intel chips, haven't had an AMD in a long time. At the moment everything is set to optimised defaults. Am not looking to overclock it with any voltage increase. Any safe basic recommendatios would be welcome.
    Thanks in advance for any help.
    MSI 890FXA-GD70 890FX Socket AM3
    AMD Phenom II X6 Black Edition 1090T
    Kingston 8GB DDR3 1600MHz HyperX Memory Kit
    Corsair Cooling Hydro Series H50
    Corsair CWCH50-1 Cooling Hydro Series H50
    Xenta 800W Modular Fan PSU
    Crucial 64GB Real SSD C300
    Sapphire HD 6870

      At stock voltage OC should be up to 3.5GHz or so, barely enough to really make much difference in performance in my opinion. I really don't notice much performance increase until OC of 400-500MHz or so. I would suggest a slight voltage increase to 1.35V & try OC to 3.6 or a little more. There's also plenty of available info if you search the web for OC on it. Here's one:  http://www.extremeoverclocking.com/reviews/processors/AMD_Phenom_II_X6_1090T_15.html

  • Suggested K8T Neo BIOS settings for CL 3 Kingston Value RAM

    G'evening!
    I'll be putting together a system with the Athlon 64 3000 and K8T Neo board and had a question about optimal BIOS settings for paired Kingston non-ECC DDR 3200 RAM (2x512mb) that's CAS 3.  Should have gotten some CAS 2.5 probably but this is what I have for now so in it goes.  I'm reading the quick users guide and noticed that you can manipulate the CAS, TCRD, TRAS, and TRP.
    First question:  Will the board's auto detect do a good job in picking out a stable configuration?
    2nd question:  If you had to or wanted to make manual settings, what would you suggest?  The CAS value is rather easy since I guess it should be set to 3 but what settings would one pick for the others?
    And if I still have your attention...
    The other things that will be going in the system are the infamous Maxtor 120 gig SATA HD, a XFX 5900FX video card, Lite-On combo burner.  Powersupply is an Antec Solution Series 400W PS.  After reading the forums for a bit I get the impression that you shouldn't forget to load the SATA Promise drivers so the HD will get recognized.  My SATA drive will be the only drive in the system and will of course be the boot drive.  Any other possible pitfalls or problems I should know about with the Maxtor SATA's and the K8T Neo board?
    Also, I had thought I read from a review that the Zalman Al-Cu CPU heatsink/fan will fit on this board.  Of course after seeing it in my hands for the first time I thought that it was a pretty damn big heatsink.  Anyone else using this heatsink? (haven't taken it out of the packaging yet so that's why I wanted some impressions).
    Thanks for any advice you can give me.  It's been a bit of time since I built a computer and I'm sure there's alot of basic things I'm relearning along with the fact that the Athlon 64 is fairly new technology.  On the other hand, when it's running smoothly...

    Cant offer anything on the Timing, (sorry as I am Intel Fodder ), But I can assure you that the Zalman 7000-AlCu, Will Indeed Fit onto your Motherboard (With Room To Spare!) :biggthumbsup:I can attest to this because My buddy just installed the Zalman 7000-AlCu on his K8T ....And He loves it! As do I ....It's about the only thing that we have in common as far as PC'S Go .........Sean REILLY875

  • Should I update BIOS for K8T Neo?

    I recently rebuilt my system around my old K8T Neo Fis2r.  Just wondering if you guys think its worth my while to update to the last BIOS using Live Update.  I'm running the original BIOS right now.  I figure if it aint broke don't fix it, and I'm not trying to overclock or anything.  Does the most recent BIOS even offer any better overclocking then the original BIOS?  The K8T Neo is not much of an overclocking board anyway.

    dont recommend flashing in windows.
    better to do it with a floppy but not from a floppy.
    check what the latest bios fixes compared to the one you use now and make your decision after that but if it all works there is no reason to update.

  • What are the best optimization settings for Logic 9....

    Hey guys,
    I am running Logic 9 on a Macbook Pro 2.53GHz, Intel Core 2 Duo, 4GB RAM, OSX 10.6.4, with a AK1 soundcard. And I was wondering what the best optimization settings for this setup are?
    I have been having a few issues with drop outs in sound during playback, which is also carried over when i bounce the audio. I did some research and found my latency settings needed to be higher, so I set the I/O buffer size to 512. I am also running all samples from the local hdd, I was thinking maybe put the samples on an external drive. I also changed Logic 9 to 64bit mode.
    Does anyone know if this is right and anything else I need to do with Logic and/or the AK1??

    First, return to 32-bit mode. 64 bit still has some ß-issues and some features that are not working/disabled, and the only perk of 64-bit is that Logic can adress more than 4 GB RAM, which you don't have anyway.
    Samples on the startup drive is not a problem, unless you start using really big third party sample libraries, or zillions of EXS instruments. Some of the Logic content insists on residing on the startup disk anyway, better leave that where it is.
    If you have an external, use that to store your Logic projects, or, in other words, make it your recording disk (as recordings are stored in the project folder). You do record audio too, I assume? Anyway, if you get an external, make it a FireWire one, not USB. FireWire is much easier on the CPU, and +for audio (and sample-) streaming+ more reliable and faster than USB.
    If dropouts you hear during playback also show up in the (offline?) bounce, it is probably not a buffer issue, as the buffer is irrelevant for bouncing offline.
    So how many tracks and what kind of tracks in this project? Which plugins and how many instances of them?

  • What are the best export settings for a HD video in Premier Pro CS4?

    Hi!
       I've been having so much trouble with this issue and it's something that continually frustrates my boss. I have a HD video the settings for it are
    FPS 23.98
    1920 x 1080, then a few lines down it says 1408 x 792
    16 bit,
    2 channels
    48000 Hz
       What should the settings be when I make a new sequence?
                 When I look at it in the window in Premiere Pro I have to contantly 'shrink' the image to fit the window, is that something I should be doing or does it indicate the sequence settings are incorrect?
    But more importantly what should the export settings be? I exported a 4 minute long video and the size was 1 GB, I know that's too big.
    I need to export it without loosing any quality and export another one that meets the Youtube and Vimeo limits on size.
    Vimeo is 500 MB per week, sometimes I upload 4 videos per week. I think Youtube you can only upload 500 MB at a time.
    I need to get smaller sizes with loosing the least amount of quality possible AND the best export settings for quality, so I guess I have 3 separate questions-
    What are the best sequence settings for HD video?
    What are the best export settings for HD without loosing any quality?
    What are the best export settings for the size to come out around 500 MB with loosing the least amount of quality possible?
    Thank You!

    On the above thread I used the 5th anwer, and it's going to take about 7 hours to export a 4 minute video :/

    It Stands for "Coder Decoder."
    Your format is like a container for your video file. Certain containers can hold certain codecs and not others. Other containers can hold other codecs. Sometimes different containers can hold the same codecs.
    This might be a bad analogy but I'll give it a try.
    A coffe cup (container) can hold pretty much any liquid you drink, where a red solo cup (container) won't hold scolding water. So, the coffe cup would be your container of choice most likely because it has the most options for liquids (codecs). But, you might want a red solo cup for just a single crappy beer at a party (a moderate quality streaming video on the web). In that case, you don't need all the optoins of another container.
    In Premiere Pro CC H.264 is a Container and the Codec in one option. This has been streamlined for web distrobution of video to be played in browsers without things like Flash or special players.
    Were as if you choose the QuickTime Container there are over 40 codec optoins (at least on my machine with additinal ones installed) but you may run into an issue where your browser doesn't support QuickTime playback.
    I would say that your container is for compatability with players and your codec is taken into consideration when looking at the quality of the compression.
    Yesteraday I wrote a blog entery on Exporting from Premiere Pro and found that the MPEG-4 codec inside of the QuickTime container gave me much richer colors than the H.264 container/codec option.
    I posted the link before but here it is:
