Maximum Cpu For K9n Ultra

Hi guys,
I have a K9N Ultra Mainborad(about 2.5 years)
I need increase my computer calculations now and my cpu is 4000+ !!!
What is the best cpu for this mainboard?(in last amd cpu)
I change my vga about 1 month ago(older vga was DEAD) and my newer vga is MSI GT430 OC dual fan.
Installed ram is 3Gb(2*512Mb + 2Gb bus800).
spec of this motherborad:
http://www.motherboards.org/mobot/motherboards_d/MSI/K9N%2BUltra%2B%2528MS-7250%2529/
thanks a lot.

An Athlon X2 6400+ would be the best CPU your motherboard supports. (CPU code ADX6400IAA6CZ)
Here's the list of supported CPUs for your board: http://eu.msi.com/index.php?func=prodcpu2&prod_no=253&maincat_no=1

Maximum CPU for my board

Hi there, its a while since I posted here as my MSI 865PE neo2 board has been faultless (Still is, lol)
I currently have a P4 (Northwood?) 2.8c 800 FSB CPU installed, and am planning in the next 3 months to upgrade it.
My question is what is the fastest P4 cpu that I can get to fit on this board?
Many thanks, Chris

Thanks for the quick reply Danny! Well it looks like I have a bit of a choice Are there any particular issues with the Prescott? I am running a very early bios (Only 1 rev up from shipping BIOS) as I havent had any probs with this rev, havent bothered flashing any higher.
Cheers Chris
Ooops, forgot to add, at the CPU change, will also be adding another 2x256 of the KVR RAM listed in my signature

K9N Ultra BIOS update

Hi. I have K9N Ultra. I had Sempron 2800+ installed on it, and everything worked fine. Now I'd like to install Athlon64 X2 5600. BIOS POST said that it doesn't know processor's revision and won't work at all. I downloaded new BIOS from http://global.msi.com.tw/index.php?func=downloaddetail&type=bios&maincat_no=1&prod_no=253 (7250v3A.zip). Unpacked and copied Afud408.exe and A7250NMS.3A0 to disk C:\. Then I booted from win98 boot floppy and did the following actions:
> c:\
> Afud408.exe A7250NMS.3A0
BIOS update was successful, I turned off the computer, cleared CMOS with SW2 button and installed new Athlon64 X2 5600 CPU. Then I booted again.
The problem is that my system works unstable now. It may suddenly turn off in Windows when I play games. In Linux it may suddenly turn off when I use microphone in Skype.
Motherboard's version as it written on the board between PCI slots: MS-7250 Ver: 2.1.
How to fix it? Thanks!

Read >>Posting Guide<<
Reseat the CPU and make sure CPU heatsink is mounted properly and no overheating issue occur.
It is not overheated, because my system turns off immediately after test call in Skype (in Debian Linux). I can compile software for hours, using 100% of both CPU cores, and my system works stable, so I can conclude that it is not overheated.
I have 2x1GB Kingston DDR2-800, GeForce 7600GS PCI-E, 2x250 GB SATA Seagate drives, Athlon 64 X2 5600 (AM2).

K9n ultra-2f strange behaviour with 250htt and more

Hi... My Pc:
Athlon 4200+ Windsor F2
MSI k9n ultra-2f , bios rev. 3.9
2x 1024 DDR2 Goodram 800mhz
Palit 8600 sonic+
Chieftec 420w
I have problem with overclocking more than 240htt... I turn spectrums off , and i set pci-e freq on 103. I also set processor multiplayer on 6 , mem on 400, and HT x2. The problem is that motherboard boot and works with 250 htt , even 300htt but... not always. It works good when i want to boot from shutted down pc, but when i try to change something in bios or reboot it from windows it's not working ( black screen , mobo doesnt boot ) ... I have to turn the pc off , and then turn it on again. Have you guy's some idea's about this problem ;/ ?
I tried with diffrent HT multiplayer's , i saw also that in CPU-Z , with 250-300fsb it shows HT x1 instead of x2-3 which is set in bios.

"The problem is that motherboard boot and works with 250 htt , even 300htt but... not always."
High HTT freq is not important. Go for max CPU freq. and keep HTT below 1000.
Leave CPU multi to Auto, drop HT link to x3, apply 667 memory index.
Then start rising CPU HT with small steps and re-test.

K9N Ultra-2F no display after shutdown

Type:K9N Ultra-2F V2.2 ERP:110
BIOS version:7250v3.6
External VGA Type:MSI NX8600GT
CPU Type:ATHLON64 X2 5000+ ADA5000IAA5CS
Memory Type:2X 1GB CORSSAIR
Power Supply Type:THERMALTAKE 400W
And here is the problem: At first turn on(after clear cmos) it was can display normally,I can set the BIOS configuration,then Save&Exit,and display again.But after I shutdown manually with short the PWSW pin,then I turn on it was can't display.It was can display again if clear cmos before turn on.There is any problem with that hardware configuration? or need to update the BIOS?
Best Regards,
Nurman

take a screen shot of CPU-Z with both cpu and memory screens with fail safe defaults loaded, and then with optimized defaults and post them here( you may have to use a hosting site)
if that is 20amps on one rail only I beleive your PSU is not strong enough for your setup. what is the model # that TT400w psu?

K9N Ultra-2F walls at 260FSB!

Hi,
I have recently bought Msi K9N Ultra-2F mobo. And my cpu is x2 3600 brisbane. I have a pair of kingston ddr2 667 ram.
A friend of mine also have this mobo too. But his processor is x2 4600. With his system i could do 290fsb by lowering the multiplier to 5x.
But my mobo can only do 260FSB. And it is not stable. Sometimes i can go into windows with this FSB but immediately my systems crashes and gave me Multi Bit ECC error( I have no idea with this error).
Now i am fully stable at 254FSB. But it is only 2.4ghz and this is too low for brisbane processors. I was expecting to go 300FSB+, when i was buying this mobo...
I have tried lots of things, but none of them worked. Now i need suggestions for increasing my FSB.
Regards,
ChivaricKnight.

have you disabled spectrums & setup pci-e freq. to 103Mhz?
provide screenshots from CPU-Z (main & memory pages)
also read Moan Guide and list full system spec.
Yes, i have disabled all spectrums. But set up pcie freq to 100mhz. Here is my cpu-z. I couldnt upload here correctly, sorry. I give the direct link:

K9N Ultra-2F woes...

Hello,
I have a MSI K9N Ultra - 2F and for the moment an Athlon64 3500+ processor. Right know I am thinking of upgrading my CPU to a Athlon64x2. I did some research in the internet and all was well, until I found this post on your boards.
Needless to say that my m/b serial number is 601-7250-050XXXXXXXXXXXX!!!
The thing is that I bought this m/b 2 years ago. So, should I upgrade and if a problem occurs contact my local dealer (I bought this m/b from a computer store in Greece) or should I contact MSI directly if something goes wrong when I place the Athlon64x2 cpu?
Thanx in advance

Hello!
The problem occurs when moving large files around. https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=100766.0;wap2
If you should upgrade motherboard and processor, or just the processor, depends very much upon what you use the computer for.

MSI K9N ULTRA 2F max vdimm (max DDR2 voltage!)

1st: I would like to ask you, the maximum voltage for the vdimm, that MSI K9N ULTRA-2F provides.
2nd: Will it work with OCZ PC2-6400 EL DDR2 1GB (2X512MB) GOLD EDITION GX XTC ?
Greetings from Greece

Original 7250 supports 1.80 - 2.45v in 0.05v steps , latest bios is :7250v143
K9N ULTRA 2F is MS7250-040 and use another bios , latest : 7250v31
It supports DDR2-800 (PC2-6400) DDR2-667 & DDR2-533
The OCZ DDR2 PC2-6400 Gold GX XTC Rev 2 Dual Channel 2 GB nominal voltage is 1.95 volt
Latest bios for this board is
K9N Ultra (MS-7250) V3.1 BIOS Release
1. This is AMI BIOS release
2. This BIOS fixes the following problem of the previous version:
- Update AMD NPT version.
- Update SB module version.
- Support AMD AWAY mode.
Hard to say for sure if the VDIMM is the same (max 2.45v) since no manual is availible on any MSI location for
this K9N Ultra-2F version (only found it at Japan site ) . But it should be the same .

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.

"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.

Problem with K9N Ultra and Windows 7!!

Hello,
I have the following system:
- K9N Ultra (MS7250 - Version:2.0)
- AMD Athlon 64 3500+
- 4x Kingston KVR533D2N4/512
- NVIDIA GForce 7300GS
- Seagate Baracuda: ST3120827AS (7200rpm)
- NEC DVDRW ND4571A
I am running Windows XP SP3 but when I try to install Windows 7 (either 32 or 64 bit versions), when the system boots up, I choose to run from CD/DVD, the files are being loaded in the beginning but then the system is stuck in the next screen where it says Starting Windows with the green bar. I have left it for up to 90 minutes and it remains there, no change. I have tried with several different disks, always the same. I tried disabling legacy USB drivers, disabling on board audio, disabling USB and having a normal keyboard and mouse, always the same, no change whatsoever, the system halts at the same point every time.
Can someone please offer some help?

i tried once more, again disabling onboard audio, legacy, floppy, everything.....same thing, when the files are loaded and the screen goes at the green bar, the DVD spins down and halts there for ever.
i am really pissed with this problem. i have installed windows 7 in all of my computers and this is the only one that absolutely refuses for windows 7 to be installed!
hmm..what do you mean about the PSU? why would the installation of 7 have a problem with the PSU? 2 days ago i installed again windpws xp sp3 (just to see if they would install in contrast to 7) without a problem. i am really tired of changing keyboards, DVDs, taking RAM in and out etc to it...i could live without the need to take a PSU out of another pc and install it to that one, is there some BIOS fix for the problem you mention?
the bios is version 3.00 from what i read.
also..what is nvidia boot agent that is the fourth option of boot in my bios??

Is there a maximum size for an internal hard disk ?

I just bought an 2.5" 160 Gb HD to replace my internal 120 Gb. Presently I only tried to mount it as an external disk, but it is recognized as a 128 Gb disk, not a 160 Gb. As it is a pain to change the internal HD, I would like to be sure the disk will be recognized as a 160 Gb before. I called Apple hot line, but they have no information, for them the maximum capacity for a Powerbook G4 12" is 80 Gb as it was never offered a larger size, but already I have a 120 Gb that I mounted myself perfectly working.
Is there a software / firmware limitation of the addressable size of a hard disk on a PowerBook G4 12" ???

I have called Apple several times, I have talked to the Apple Store in KC. Same answer...well it comes in 40-60-80 configs. Not a good answer.
The 12 inch powerbook G4 supports ATA-100 (100Mb/sec) interface. The specs on the Hitachi HD refer to ATA-6, which refers to the higher speed transfer rate of UDMA6.
As I understand the ATA (AT Attachment),PATA (Parrallel ATA), IDE (Integrated Drive Electronics) and UDMA (Ultra Direct Memory Access) are basically used interchangeably to describe the interface (see wikopedia for detail difference of implementation of specs).
Since the Mac OS supports terabystes of HD data, the OS is not a limitation. The limitation is in the motherboard interface and controller for ATA (ATA-100)
The ATA specification is 28-bit addressing with a maximum capacity to address of 137gb - 128gb formated. It is calculated as follows. A bit is either on or off meaning it is binary - or in mathmatical terms base of 2.
2 to the 28th power = 268,435,456 disk sectors to address.
Each sector has blocks of 512 bytes.
268,435,456 * 512 = 137,438,953,472 or 137GB
Once formated the drive capacity for data is 128GB.
This is the same issue as the W98 PCs. An indication Apple is way behind in technology for HD interface and controllers. Very sad!
Now the part I do not understand ATA-6 introduced 48 bit addressing, increasing the limit to 128 PiB (or 144 petabytes). This is much larger than 128GB standard ATA. My assumption here is the Hitachi HD supports ATA-6 however Apple does not support more than standard ATA on the motherboard HD interface and controller. The G4 HD controller I assume does not support Ultra DMA mode 5 compliant (UDMA5). This would mean it does not support the 80-connector cables, only the older 40-connector cables.
Does anyone know if this powerbook supports ATA-100,UDMA5, 80-connector cables?

Monitor doesnt wake up when booting first time, have to restart - k9n ultra-2f

So, I have few problems. The main problem is in da topic:
I bought an used computer about two weeks ago. I installed windows and all drivers etc.
With the old bios (cant remember what version) all was okay except always in boot an error message was shown that said something that the proseccor could not be recognised but the processor was still shown right in My Computer.. :s
Because of that error message i decided to update bios. I updated it throught live update 3 to v.3.6 and now i dont get the processor error message but the monitor doesnt wake up in the boot.. I have to press reset button and then when the monitor wakes up there comes an error message what says something like "Warning!!! The previous performance of overclocking is failed, and the system is restored to the defauls settings". Then I press any key and windows boots normally.
I reupdated v.3.6 bios today manually from floppydisk but the problem didnt go anywhere.
I have searched this forum but cant find same kind of problem posted.
Can somebody please help me with this and tell what could be the problem?
Also when booting second time so that the monitor wakes up, i get four alert sounds.. What could those mean?
My computer is pretty powerful (amd athlon 64 5600+ x2, club3d gf 7950gt, 2gb 533mhz..) It should be very smooth and fast but it often appears slowliness and ..how can i say it.. temporary tilting? :p And the 3dmark03 benchmark gives me 19465 points, it should be giving much more. The computer is clean, no viruses or adware. What could cause this?
Sorry for the messy message and bad english and im not really good at computers

Thanks for the reply.
I didnt have this issue before updating BIOS..
And i didnt find jbat1 from my k9n ultra-2f. I didnt even find it from the mb manual. Theres only a Clear CMOS Button: SW2. I pushed it few times and then i rebooted my computer. At the first time the monitor woke up instantly and i was like wohooooo but then i shut down the computer and booted it again.. The monitor didnt wake up before pressing the reset button, the same problem was back.
I think that the SW2 button reset the bios settings like the jbat1 would do, because i had disabled the big logo at the boot and after pressing SW2 the logo was back.
Then i set the memory vcore to 2.0V but it didnt help. Infact i think the computer had come a bit more slowly.. :s I think it may be the RAM what makes my comp so slow... dunno.

K7N2-L maximum CPU support?

Apologies if this has already been answered somewhere. I just wanted to doubly confirm what the main site says about this mobo.
I've a K7N2-L mobo with the latest BIOS. Am I right in that it will support CPUs over and above 3000mhz as well as PC3200 DDR ram? Right now I have a 2000mhz CPU with PC2100 ram and would rather just upgrade the CPU and RAM rather than fork out for a new mobo as well.

It boils down to the choice of a new PC entirely or just getting the best CPU/RAM I can for this mobo. I don't really OC my machine too much anyway so I'd rather just go for the maximum CPU possible.
If I can put a 3000mhz and some PC3200 RAM in there, I'll be quite happy. Then it's just a matter of waiting for the graphics cards to drop in price a little and I'll be able to happily play the Half-Life 2s and Doom3's of the coming months
