KT6 FISR -XP2500 Barton Overclock Settings !

I would like to know what FSB/Multiplier settings people are using with their KT6 FISR (or FIS2R) M/B and the XP2500 Barton CPU. I have had my CPU up to 2004MHz only (11 x 167) without any problems but, rather than proceed any further and "cook" my CPU, I would like information from people that are running higher settings with good stability and acceptable CPU temps.

Yes I'm saying If you buy a 2500 barton, you can try and overclock it at 200x11, if it isn't stable increase voltage a little bit, to 1.75 or even 1.80 IF YOU HAVE A GOOD COOLER.
The most important is that it must be stable in windows and games;
in super-heavy-stressssss tests such as Prime95 it may fail... it almost doesn't even affect real world applications.
And another point, DON't buy a 2500 barton and leave it at 166x11.
2500 barton are way slower than 2400 tbreds, are more expensive, as I've found (I had one until a few day ago), and you can easily give an athlon 2400 a slight 100mhz boost by just uppering the FSB to, say 140, at no cost...
Consider this, my ex 2400 tbred @ 2100mhz (140x15), in SuperPI test it totalled 58 seconds, In stead the 2500 barton scored 1.00 minute.
Not to mention the tbred is cooler...
Definitively barton is not that "discover".
It's only a mediocre core in spec use...
The best were tbreds.

  • Sound problem with c-media 9739A/kt6 fisr

    Hey guys,
    I haven't figured out this one, my sound is weird meaning it seems like its missing buffering (its like cutoff a millisecond or two by second when i play games) and its really annoying.  It did it first a lot when ive overclocked it it started going fine... here are my specs
    MSI KT6 FISR W/2800+ barton core O'C'd to 3200+ (just 117Mhz + :P)
    MSI T128 128mg. 8X agp card
    WD 120Gig 8 m. Cache HD
    LG Combo Drive
    300Watt PSU
    wireless key+mouse
    I have all the latest driver (i swear) Hyperion all-in-one Cmedia's latest driver Bios update... Im wondering what does that as it is working fine just when browsing/listening to some musak and .... i was playing ghost recon with the sound ok.... but now its started doing it after about ... 3 weeks
    If you have avenues to troubleshoot this pleaz, but you know something not freaking obvious as i am troubleshooting a lot but this one i just dont want to send it through warranty and its kinda different when its your own :O

    Knew i forgot something
    Crucial PC2700 512 Mb
    the psu came with the case and ... i dont really think it has a brand its written sunny technologies on it if it can help you out. i noticed something strange while trying to fix it yesterday.  it seems either a video-sound card issue or a 3d effect issue as in two different games (MOHS, Ghost recon) when i shooted in the far distance, i noticed that it was doing it. If i shoot the ground, which is close it doesnt do it... and note that when i start both games the sound is great, until i get into the actual FPView.... ill try again some stuff....
    Thanks for posting man!

  • What is not in the box of KT6-FISR that is in the FIS2R

    I know the KT6 Delta-FISR is missing the Promise Raid option, but what cables, brackets, software etc. comes with the FISR.
    The product pages have no reference as to what is actaully is included with the KT6-FISR. I know what is included with FIS2R, LSR and SR.
    Is it the standard cables or the flashy red ones, do you get all the brackets and S-ATA leads?
    Is the software bundle included?
    TIA

    Hi Elton,
    It sounds like the DNS lookup is resolving to the wrong ip address.  When the RD Gateway (RDS02) looks up remote.yourcompany.com to connect to your broker/RDSH it should resolve to the ip address of RDS01, but it appears it is resolving to RDS02 instead.
    I recommend you use Set-RDPublishedName to change the name back to what is was before (remote.yourcompany.com) and verify that your DNS settings are correct.  For example, if you log on to RDS02 and try to ping remote.yourcompany.com it should try to
    ping the internal ip address of RDS01, since that is your connection broker.

  • KT6 FISR (5188) - Jumbo frames support

    Hi,
    I have the KT6 FISR motherboard up and running with a gigabit network (after a dodgy network cable dropped my speed to 100Mbps ) and was wondering if anyone knew whether it supports jumbo frames. Have searched the spec sheets and also broadcom's website without any joy. There are no settings in the 'configure' section of the hardware.
    Anyone?
    Mike

    Taken from the netgear site - http://kbserver.netgear.com/kb_web_files/n101539.asp:
    What is the Jumbo Frame Supported by Switches and Adapters?
    Ethernet traffic moves in units called frames. The maximum size of frames is called the Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU). When a network device gets a frame larger than its MTU, the data is fragmented (broken into smaller frames) or dropped. Historically, Ethernet has a maximum frame size of 1500 bytes, so most devices use 1500 as their default MTU. An Ethernet packet larger than 1500 bytes is called a Jumbo Frame.
    An Ethernet frame uses a fixed-size header. Since the header contains no user data, it's overhead. It is more efficient to transmit a larger frame — the overhead-to-data ratio is better.
    The performance problem arises when the MTU of one device is different than another. Indeed, casual changes to MTU to "optimize performance" are likely to have the opposite effect. See MTU, Partial Loss of Internet Connection, and Performance for an explanation of MTU problems — before considering the effects of Jumbo Frames. Also note that Jumbo Frames only help LAN performance, traffic leaving your network to the Internet is limited to packets of 1500 bytes.
    With Jumbo Frames, much larger frames than the Ethernet standard of 1500 bytes are supported. If most of your local network devices and applications can be configured for the same Jumbo Frame size, your network may benefit from large packets, little fragmentation, and little overhead. However, if there are many applications and devices on your network that already limit frames to less than 1500 bytes, Jumbo Frames might decrease your performance slightly.
    So with a switch and NAS both supporting jumbo frames it would have been good to have used them (or is that being too greedy? )

  • KT6-FISR + Network error

    Hello guys,
    Im novice in the forum and Im from Brazil..
    I bought a KT6-FISR recently and I installed windows XP normally, During one day I used this mobo without problems, but when I started again, the on board chip network don’t appears more.
    My configuration is:
    Windows XP professional, Athlon XP 2500+ , 256MB , Soundblaster Live 5.1 and riva TNT32
    Today I’m using a network card 3Com and dont have problems with my network
    Thanks

    Hi,
    I had other problems with the Broadcom GIGAbit Controller - caused Blue Screen with the 6.xx.x.x Driver version so I got to the Broadcom Inetpage and pulled Version 7.xx.x.x which made my system stable again
    Can't say this will cure your problem - but maybe it's worth trying it
    Also - try clearing NVRAM in the Systembios - and set PnP OS Option on YES when using WinXP
    Hope this helps  

  • Z87m-g43 Overclocking settings

    Hi guy's. I bought an  i5 4670 processor and z87m-g43 motherboard about three days ago.  I have gtx560 1GB 256 bit, 8GB (2x4) 1600 mhz dual channel ram. I want overclocking but ı don't now OC settings and i think these can uploading from Usb. Can you tell me a highest overclocking settings or someone can give me these with folder ? Please answer

    Quote from: montyface on 07-August-13, 06:28:19
    I finally found the answer after a little more web searching. You have to manually enter the ratio. There is no drop down or sub menu. Now I'm trying to figure out why Windows 7 only sees a 3.4 ghz cpu..
    Where do you enter the ratio though?

  • KT6 FISR 4 Red Lights Good CPU

    I just replaced my old KT4 Motherboard with a new KT6 FISR and a ATI 9500 128MB Video card.  I get nothing but 4 red lights.  Look in book says it's a probable bad CPU.  Unplug everything but memory, CPU, video and look at lights.  Same thing 4 red lights.  Try another CPU same thing 4 red lights.  Try to pull Video, no beeps just 4 red lights.  Try to pull memory and video, no beeps 4 red lights.  Take this CPU out and try in another MB, no problem works fine.  Is this a bad motherboard?  I can't think of anything else to try.
    - Zych

    I think you both have hit it on the head.  I will go to my house and check.  I don't think the 4 plug is plugged in know that I think about it.  (Too many good shows on TV  :D)
    I will let you all know as soon as I check.

  • Did all KT6-FISR have north bridge fan

    I've just bought a KT6-FISR brand new. The first thing I've noticed is that the north bridge has a heat sink on it, but no fan. Neither is there a fan in the box.
    Did all KT6-FISR have a north bridge fan as standard?
    Is it fitted onto the heatsink on delivery, or does the user have to fit it?
    I'm just wondering whether it has been taken from the box by 'someone' at the computer shop.

    I depends on what MSI included in that particular bundle as it isn't the same for every board the SR/LSR I know probably wouldn't have it the FISR could have it though still doubtful only the top of the rung FIS2R would be the one that should have it no questions asked. Now the heatsink on fanless boards will do just fine the fan is tiny noisy at times, and isn't needed in fact I'm replacing my northbridge HSF with a Zalman fanless one.

  • Overclock settings

    I need some recommended overclock settings to start with for Asus x99 deluxe, haswell 5930, 32gb 2666 ram, coolermaster 212evo cpu cooler, gtx970 gpu. This will be for premiere pro as well as after effects.

    Why did you up the base clock vs just the multiplier?

  • MOVED: KT3 Ultra + Barton -- overclocking results

    This topic has been moved to Overclockers & Modding Corner.
    KT3 Ultra + Barton --> overclocking results

    I'll try to answer a few questions raised:
    zip227:
    5.7 is designed for all the KT3 motherboards, ARU or not, Ultra or Ultra2.
    Do not use "Auto", always configure it manually, especially if you want to go higher than 133.
    Your PC2700 allows you to set the FSB at 166. Since your CPU is unlocked, I would try setting 12*166, for a start. If temperature remains under 55°C (idle) and if an hour of Prime95 does not give you an error, then increase the coefficient 12-->12.5-->13-->...  until you reach the temperature limit or get errors.
    Okay:
    Thats the whole point! The first KT3 Ultra1 does not officially support Bartons, but in practice, it does!
    MSI never gave an explanation as to why they pretend it does not work, as far as I know.
    There is no PCI/AGP lock, but there is a PCI/AGP divider, as explained in the original post. The consequence is: you may run into instabilities at FSBs between 145 and 152, but it may automagically work with an FSB above 152!
    BarryB:
    Since my Barton is locked, I just incremented FSB 2-3 steps at a time.
    At 178, it would not even load Windows.
    At 176, it would load Windows but would crash randomly + temperature under load would reach the KT3's safety shutdown CPU limit too (64°C on my board).
    At 175, it works fine. I ran Prime95 for a couple of hours, and CPU temperature under load maxed at 63°C.
    Note I use a silent TT fan (2300rpm only), and have a poorly ventilated case, so your max FSB may differ . Also, I will probably have crashes when the room's temperature rises in summer.

  • Overclocking settings?

    i was just wondering if there is anyone that can give me some good overclocking settings for the amd 64 3000+ and k8n neo platinum mobo. i have stock cooling, but my temps usually read 40C idle. any help would be appreciated. my sig should contain everything about my pc setup.

    u may need to relax ur ram timings.. 2,2,2,5 is quite tight while overclocking
    also, a decent heatsink n fan combo will pay u good dividends when overclocking.
    remember tho, overclocking is purely luck..athlon 64 overclocking is very dependant on manufacturing process...
    mine is rock stable at 2.4Ghz at 1.55v...i cannot get it stable at 2.5GHz even with 1.7v :(
    even using ram dividers
    drop ur timings a lil on ram then try again and see how far u can push with a lil vcore increase
    make sure ur AGP is set to 67 to make sure the lock is in effect
    Good Luck dude

    don't really need more power, the only thing I want, is USB2.0, Firewire400, optical audio output, onboard Raid and some more oc features
    Well, you'll like the KT6 Delta FIS2R for sure.
    Of all the mobo's ive studied, none have as many USB2 inputs on the back of the board where all the other ports are. This has 6 ready for direct use without any pci slot blocking dongles. (8 with the USB2/Diagnostic lights dongle installed).
    It sure has optical output, but the sound quality from it isnt as good as an Audigy.
    The promise controller is very good, letting you use 2 PATA and 2 SATA at the same time.
    Firewire use a pci slot blocking dongle but has 3 sockets (2 big and 1 small)
    As for OC, ive tried above 200mhz FSB (208 Mhz) but it was a little unstable, not sure why, never really tested it out.

  • Ideal KT4V BIOS settings for XP2500+ Barton

    I've read AMD's recommendations for the KT4V BIOS settings  http://www.amdforums.com/showindex.php?s=&threadid=186506 , but they seem to be very generic. I would like to know the settings that would give me the highest performance, without causing any instability, using my present system and usage. My son does 3D animation and gaming on this computer. This is a stand alone computer (no network). The latest version BIOS for the KT4V offers an option in Power Management Features to enable CPU HALT Command Detection. I heard that this would work better than Cooler XP in cooling the CPU. I enabled it and my CPU Temp dropped 6-10 degrees C. Is this recommended? What is the down side of this action? My system is as follows: AMD Athlon XP 2500+ w/ Vantec VA4-C7040 CPU fan (w/Arctic Silver 3) MSI KT4V mobo Gainward Golden Sample Ti/450 TV w/ 128MB DDR (GeForce3 Ti 200) 2 - Kingston 512MB PC2700 DDR RAM Antec TRUE550 power supply 1 - 40GB 7200RPM hard drive 1 - 30GB 5400RPM hard drive 1 - CD-ROM 1 - CD-RW 1 - floppy drive Windows XP home Any help would be appreciated.

  • Xp2100+ vs xp2500 barton for oc

    i plan on overclocking and the barton is only $50CDN more.  which would be the better purchase?  both unlock with the wire trick so that's not an issue.  has anyone had great success in overclocking the barton?  i know people have had their 2100s at 2.3GHz with ease but what would a barton get me?  cooling would be better on the barton cause of the bigger core but with my volcano 9 i'm not too worried either way.
    quick answers would be appreciated.

    Cujo, I'm on an XP2100+ and it rox for o/c! w/o changing the voltage settings or the Factor Multiplyer settings I can set the FSB up to 166 and it runs just as a 2700+ would run, completly stable. I have gone as high as 2.3 ghz, fairly stable and according to sisoft sandra benchmarking utility, I slightly out perform the 3000+. Here is a guide that may help you when picking out a thurobredB based chip: http://lowyat.isentral.com/guides/athlonxp/ Hope it helps!

  • K7N2 Delta ILSR and XP2500+ - strange overclocking problem

    Relevant configuration data:
    - K7N2 Delta ILSR (with 7.6 BIOS version)
    - Barton 2500+ (AQXEA)
    - Arctic Silver 3 thermal compound
    - GlobalWin CAK 38 (7000 rpm DELTA, all copper)
    - 2x512 MB Corsair XMS cmx512 3200c2 (it should run 6-3-3-2 at 200MHz on AMD systems according to older documents, and on 6-3-3-2.5 at 200MHz  on AMD systems according to newer documents)
    - PSU Enermax EG465P-VE (430W)
    - Gigabyte ATI Radeon 9800Pro 128MB
    - Battlefield 1942 game  
    I have 2 seperate problems:
    1. When I try to set my proc on 13x166 (Barton XP3000+) BIOS won't recognise that settings and it gives me real-clock rate of 833MHz (and no name, just "Athlon XP"). Just a note, when I set proc to be XP2600 or XP2800, everything is great in BIOS and in real conditions (Windows, Battlefield). I had 7.4 version of BIOS and I tried with new 7.6 version and nothing has changed (as I suspected). Can someone help me about this ?
    2. Second problem is a bit more serious.
    I'm having problems setting my proc to work with 100% stability on 200MHz FSB speed.
    This is what's going on:
    - Behaviour in Windows is pretty much good (no random restarts).
    - Sometimes (on rare occasions) blues screen appears when I'm in windows or some program. Last time when it appeared it said something about "memory managment". I tried to lower memory settings but nothing seemed to be better.
    - If I try to freshly install windows on 200 MHz FSB in 98% of the cases installation will be abrupted (blue screen or resets) or it won't even start to install.
    - What's bothering me the most is this: Battlefield 1942 is crashing on regular basis. Sometimes it can hold for 5 minutes, sometimes 20 minutes, sometimes half an hour. But on certain moment, puff, and I'm out in Windows. Not a computer restart, just it throws me on desktop.
    I've been checking the temperature on regular basis when I'm playing. It is always low.
    I've tried to raise core voltage all the way to 1.8v, but same thing happens.
    I've tried to lower memory settings, but I get same BF crashing.
    I don't know what else to do or what other component to acuse for instability.  
    Can somebody please help me ?
    Thank you in advance !

    ...loosen up your memory timings to add stability, and give it a try again at the 200 mhz fsb without changing the multiplier.
    I drove the memory according to the Corsair's specs, and I drove it on lower settings also. No change.
    Quote
    also you may wish to go up to 2.7 volts for your ram, and 1.7 volts on your processor to add stability, remember sometimes you have to go up gradually a step or two at a time and keep it there for a day or two before you reach your top OC.
    I might try upping ram voltage but that doesn't sound good, because it IS DDR 400 memory (an excellent one too !).
    It's not like I'm trying to drive it over 200MHz. 200MHz is this memory's normal frequency.
     Quote
    Newest video driver from ATI may help with the stability on your gaming.
    Already have newest drivers.
    Anyway, thanks for the tips !
