MS6330 V3.0 board and CPU Question

Hey everybody!!
I have a question, and maybe somebody can help me...
I have the ms6330 v3.0 board, Award Bios 2.8, and i want a new processor. I currently have a Duron 900 that is working fine, but i need to speed up a little... I was researching on the website, and i discovered that i could only run a Athlon XP 1800 on it at 1.53 ghz...
The question i have is this: since the board will run at a FSB of 133 mgz, and it has a clock speed multiplier of 9 - 13.5, shouldn't i be able to run a 1.8ghz processor? The athlon XP 2200 is a heck of a lot easier to find right now. I don't understand why this would not be possible..
Can anyone explain why i wouldn't be able to use the 1.8ghz processor? It doesn't look like any of the bios updates will help...
Thanks for your help!!

Hi Frooshfreak,
The board has been limited by MSI to use the XP 1800+ PALOMINO type of processor - the reason for that is the fact that the power lines are to thin to accomodate (much) bigger CPUs. If you want to use bigger CPUs it is wise to invest in a Turbo2 board (Version 5) which are very affordable at present and you will have no problems for sure.
With the V 3.0 board, and additional problem will be that mixed results have been reported for THOROUGHBRED type of CPUs, sometimes these will work, sometimes they do not - IMO it is better to take no chance there.

You can upgrade to an SSD.
The simplest method is to use an SSD like the Corsair Force 3 and be sure that you purchase the migration kit.
The migration kit comes with cloning software and a usb to SATA/power cable that connects to the new SSD.
It is recommended that you purchase and SSD that is about 256 GB in capacity if you can find one that is affordable.
SSD with migration kit options in a search that I did.

770-C45 Motherboard and CPU question

I have referred to the CPU compatibility chart for this motherboard and my question is in regards to the AMD Phenom II X4 965 Black Edition CPU. I see other 965 CPU's listed as compatible. I realize that this CPU is 140 watts. Is this a problem. Could someone please clarify this for me.
Thanks for your time

thanks for the assistance, I have decided to go with a 955 instead of a 965.
I also read the Memory sticky and it said to look for AMD tested RAM. I am using tigerdirect.ca and dont see any RAM that says it has been specifically made for an AMD. Currently I am looking at Kingston PC10600 1333MHz 4GB DDR3 (KVR1333D3K2/4GR). I only plan to use 2 as per the guide. Any suggestions.
Thanks for clearing up my earlier question.

Have I blown My M/B and CPU

Hi There,
Ive got the K7N2 Delta-ILSR Motherboard with a 3200 xp 400 fsb and it looks to me like I've blown them both.
I was installing the Thermaltake Aquarius 3 Water cooling system, I took the fan off and put the water block on the CPU but when I powered up the system the cooloing unit didn't work and my pc booted for about 2 seconds then shut itself down. Is this long enough to bugger both the board and CPU?
The board diagnostics Lights say the CPU is damaged but when I try an old 3000xp, which I know works, in the board that doesn't work either. The system now powers up but the monitor doesn't fire up, I've tried resetting the Cmos and the Jumper to safe mode, but nothing. Any Ideas ?
Thanks,
Paul.

check all cables.
try another gfx card.
try with only 1 stick memory
set jumper j10 and j11 to safe mode and then clear cmos.
remove battery for atleast 10 mins while doing that to do a dep clear.

Premiere Cs4 handle CPU...performance...and idiot questions

Ok, i tried to read as much as i could, performance threads about Premiere Cs4...but couldn't help it.
So i upgraded to Production Premium Cs4 before 2 weeks...
I've noticed all the problems that were mentioned...what i can't understand is the LOW PERFOMANCE in export or preview
my system runs a QUAD 6600 with 8gbs RAM, NVIDIA 8800GT and XP64...
after effects runs fine in almost maximum CPU (if you adjust it in preferences), but premiere (that means and ABOBE MEDIA encoder) exports in 5-20% of the CPU...if you try to encode with TMPGEnc processes go much faster and cpu is quite high...
question 1) (yes i know i am dumb...)
exporting speed has to do with footage, type of media that is being exporting and GPU??????
2)is my system, just not enough???
3)Premiere CS4 cannot handle multicore anyway...and every user here has the same problems??????
Sometimes...i think that i will do BAD things in my PC when PREMIERE is SO SLOW and i am in such hurry...Someone...coould answer? before i start taking drugs????????????????
A Straight answer 1) ,2) ,3) would be really nice for my emotional condition...

Roger thank you very much!
It is now starting to make sense. I have only run it once and not tried any other tricks yet (like trying to use the Source from the RAID array rather than from the C: drive)
Now rather than taking 130 seconds for encoding it is down to 25 seconds versus 8 seconds for CS3. I suspect that at least some of that is because they are using the C: drive for the source.
MPEG encoding has also a major improvement by using the rendered preview files and as matter of fact it reduced the MPEG encoding time from 75 seconds (CS3) to 57 seconds (CS4)! Maybe we will have to go back to suggesting rendering the timeline before any encoding.
One other plus for CS4 is that the rendering is much smarter in that any duplicate segments are rendered only one time.
Why do they hide these menus with such tiny hard to find icons? I had a similar problem finding a playback option for my second monitor.

Installed new hard drive in imac and i get folder with question mark, put in OS install disk and it does nothing? All I have is wireless key board and mouse, is this a factor?

Other than put disc in you don't give much info about what you've done. With the install disc inserted restart your Mac while holding the C key, that should start it up from the install disc. Should also work fine with a wireless Apple keyboard.

Question about the logic board and video

Hi, i own a macbook pro 17 in. @ 2.4 ghz, and have the nvida 8600 gt card. I'm pretty sure that the card has failed since no video has shown up during start up 2 weeks ago (i asked a friend of mine, and he had the same problem with a macbook pro 15 in., he was pretty positive on a card failure). I brought it to the local genius bar, and they fixed some firmware or whatnot, and it worked fine for a week. A week later, the same problem of no video showed up during start up.
My question is if this is a video card issue, is it possible that the logic board could have been damaged from the faulty video card? The tech. told me that it might be the board, and im afraid of paying the hefty repair fee, although i personally feel that the card is all to blame.

Here is the article on the NVIDIA 8600 chip:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2377
Note that Apple will do the repair free of charge if the chip fails within the first two years of ownership. The repair will be to replace the logic board, as Apple does not work on boards at the component level. Your machine should be new enough to qualify for the free repair.
Good luck!

MSI KT8 Neo2 F board, upgraded cpu and used MSIs Live Update, now unstable BSODs

I've had this mobo for almost 2 yrs now with an AMD 3500+ cpu and recently upgraded that to the FX-55. To do that, it required using MSIs Live Update and needed newer chipset drivers. It has the latest bios according to Live Update.
It took a few attempts but finally booted w/o BSODs and has been running for over 1 week BUT is still not right. It's sometimes unstable and will crash (BSOD) just by starting up a browser. I had the bios settings at "optimized" and have tryed a few other changes but so far, I'm not gaining. Last night I couldn't keep it running more than a few minutes w/o it crashing.
I have the MSI manual for my board and plan to spend some more time playing with it tonight but might anyone here have any ideas? It's not running hot (reads 50C) and was stable before with the 3500+. I've tryed "Fail Safe" bios settings too but nothing's better that way either.
I'm hoping that someone here has a few ideas?
Perhaps related?
After initially running this with the new cpu, I'd see the "searching for MAC address" message and it'd hang there on boot. Someone told me that was because it was trying to do a network boot, selected in the boot sequence SO I've unselected that and that's when things got worse (oddly as it shouldn't IMO). One can select the 3+ boot devices (floppy, USB, CD-DVD rom, HDD) and it use to see the HDDs (2) before but now I'm not (only floppy and CD-DVD rom) and if I unselect the ethernet option (boot other devices), it fails to boot at all and says "insert floppy" as if I was installing Win98 way back when (running XP Pro btw). Something's definately not right with my bios selections.

Let's go back to basics here for a bit. Start by posting your complete specs in your signature like we do. Make sure that your PSU values are also in there.
Let's also look at some tests to help determine where the issue is. I would recommend Memtest86+, OCCT, Prime95, and 3DMarks as a great first series. Also get CPUz and lets see what it shows for CPU and Memory.
If we can get an idea where things begin to fall apart then maybe we can determine if this is driver, hardware or some other issue without having to make the flash happen first. The reason why I am avoiding the flash at this point is that if things are mostly working maybe there is some other cause than Bios. We know that some FX's work with 3.x and some that don't. So I would like to try a bit of checking before we dive into a flash that could cause more issues than it solves if we get this wrong. As things are mostly working now we can assume at least for the moment that maybe the flash is not needed. If we don't see anything during testing that sheds some light then maybe we go ahead with the flash.
That is if your willing to take some time to try and sort this out and maybe learn some stuff in the process. It is of course your call and we will respect whichever decission you make here.

CPU VDD Control over Voltage and Temps questions

Hi Im running a msi890gxm-g65 with 1055t and g skill ddr3 ram at 1667 and am sitting overclocked at 3.5 Ghz with voltage at 1.375. I was trying to push it further so i know i had to increase my voltage but whenever i increased the option CPU Voltage in bios to any number it would always show as 1.375 in any program such as cpuz or coretemp. So i noticed i had to increase the CPU VDD Voltage option also to be able to obtain the voltage i wanted. So my question is how do those two work together? to obtain whatever voltage i want should i change both of these to the same number ?
Also in bios which i know is not idle I am noticing my temps at around 46C which is around what my full load will be with prime ( with a max of 50C after 12 hours for a short period) as reported by coretemp and hwmonitor. I know there is many reports that Thuban 1055t temps are not reported accurately in software programs so that it would be a good bet to add 10-15C to whatever the software temp is shown. So does anyone know how much load is put on system when bios is showing temperature, i just want to make sure im not running it to hot as i know they should not exceed 62C, and i expect to overclock it more then it currently is.

thanks im getting kind of confused though i noticed if i change CPU VDD Voltage and CPU Voltage to the same number it will change what is reported in cpuz VID. I changed it down to 1.35 instead of default 1.375.
So basically for CPU VDD VOLTAGE and CPU VOLTAGE do i need to change both of these to the same number to get required voltage needed for my overclock ?
Also i had to raise my CPU NB Voltage to be able to boot into windows past 3.8ghz and few minutes of prime seems fine.
My current settings are
CPU VDD VOLTAGE AND CPU VOLTAGE are at 1.387 and CPU NB VOLTAGE AND CPU NB VDD VOLTAGE are at 1.3
Running 272x 14 = 3.8 ghz and ddr3 memory running at 1450mhz.
I cant seem to get it past this ghz even when raising cpu to 1.475, should i raise cpu nb voltage more to achieve ? had same problem at 3.5ghz and cpu nb set to auto.
Are the voltages i posted safe ?? are CPU VDD VOLTAGE AND CPU VOLTAGE the same thing and cpu nb vdd and cpu nb vdd the same thing as well ?

Question about MSI Z87 boards and NVMe PCI-E SSDs

With the release of the Intel SSD 750 PCI-E SSD and more NVMe SSDs no doubt to follow, will the older motherboards like the Z87 series get updates so that they can boot with NVMe SSDs?
All of the Z97 and X99 boards already have compatibility:
http://www.msi.com/news/1949.html
What about older chipsets like Z87, Z77? Z87 in particular is very similar to Z97, so I'd imagine it'd be the most likely candidate.

Yeah I did.
Quote from: jkinneberg on 13-May-15, 07:04:11
Did anyone get an answer from MSI.
MSI is there going to be a BIOS release to support the ability to boot off of nvme PCIe cards for the M87 boards?
MSI Tech. 05/14/2015 We unfortunately do not have any information regarding any future support for these series boards and supporting NVMe, you , you may continue to visit our news section for updates as they become available. http://us.msi.com/news/
I think is possible though - that and it's likely these boards may support Broadwell as well.

Having logic board and inverter replaced - will post results.

My MBP is afflicted with the CPU whine and the LCD whine, not to mention the "Moo". I solved the Airport not connecting automatically issue on my own.
Talked to Apple about the whines, they wanted me to take it to the local guys, which I was happy to do. I dropped it off this morning, going to pick it up after work.
They are ordering me a replacement logic board, and the inverter (at my request). I will keep my MBP until they come in and then they will swap the new parts in.
I'm guessing it won't be a short wait for the parts, but I will follow up in this thread detailing further results and noise levels.
Personally, I am very impressed with the local service response. They agreed to get the inverter at my request even after opening it up and finding the noise to all eb coming from the logic board.
I know it ***** to wait... but there is more to come. Any questions about my specific machine, etc; post and I will answer.

BrenM - Good luck with your MBP! I hope the replacement logic board and inverter resolve the issues.
As for me, my MBP has been at an Apple Authorized Service Provider in Oakville, Ontario for about a week and a half. They first ordered a replacement logic board, which came from California ... took 2 or 3 days. Unfortunately the replacement logic board did not resolve the high-pitched "whine" issue. The tech told me it is quieter, but not gone .... So on Monday he advised me that they are replacing the inverter, which is on order. They expect to receive it on Wednesday. To be honest, I don't think the inverter will address the high-pitched "whine", as I've been following this issue on here very closely. But it probably will resolve the buzz from the screen when adjusting the brightness, so that's good.
The ASP that I took my MBP to in Oakville has been great. They're really on the ball with it and I know they are doing the best they can. But what it really comes down to is ... if Apple doesn't have an issue to this high-pitched "whine", there's not much the ASP can do. I appreciate them replacing the logic board and inverter, but it's really Apple that needs to get their act in gear and resolve this once and for all. The MBP's have been out for what ... 5-6 weeks now? This has been a hot topic ever since people starting receiving their MBP's, and Apple needs to face the fact that people are not going to let this go until a solution is provided.
The ASP told me that if after replacing the inverter it is still not resolved, I'll need to put up with it until Apple resolves the issue, as there's nothing else they can do. I asked him - what if it takes Apple 2-3 months to resolve the issue? He said I can bring it right back in to have it fixed. So that's good.
The other thing I was considering is when I get my MBP back, to contact Customer Relations and put up a fuss to receive a replacement. But ... then the replacement will probably have the high-pitched "whine". I don't know what to do at this point. It sort of bothers me that my $3000 MBP is no longer pristine, as it has been serviced and received replacement parts ... what do you guys think? Should i be firm with customer relations and (politely) demand a repacement?

Compatibility between MSI i7 boards and Corsair DDR3 RAM kits?

Similar issues from other posters: Thread 1, Thread 2
Are there any known compatibility issues between MSI's Intel i7 boards and Corsair's 1600 DDR3 triple-channel kits?
My brother's machine (which has been discussed here before last time I tried to fix it) is still having trouble, and also uses the same type of RAM as the two threads above. The symptoms are:
1) Occasional lockups, followed by a reboot
2) Inability to POST: the machine will try numerous times, rebooting each time (as in threads 1 and 2), followed (eventually) by the POST saying "the previous overclocking has failed and the BIOS is reset to default settings" - as in thread 1. The machine will then (normally) boot. Reducing the RAM speed increases the chance of a successful boot, but the settings don't stick (presumably they are wiped when the BIOS is reset to the default settings). Cold boots (after the machine has been switched off overnight) tend to be the most likely to fail.
Any ideas what could be causing this, if not an incompatibility with the RAM (in 3-channel mode)? Dropping down to one stick stabilises the system, but at the expense of dropping to a mere 2GB of RAM.

Quote from: HU16E on 06-September-09, 15:10:01
Out of seven MSI X58 boards, none had a problem with Corsair sticks. With the 1600's running at 1066, they should only require default (1.50v) auto voltage. They should also work using settings of 1N 9 9 9 24 without issue. As the CPU IMC only natively supports 800/1066, your particular CPU may have a limitation of working any higher. But, something is not right within the system if it will not run the RAM at 1066. To rule out a bad stick, test with just one in the black A0 slot, & swap it out & test the other two individually. As far as DRAM voltage, if all the sticks check out ok, try raising it to 1.55V. Keep the forum updated on your progress.
Added: Make sure 'Spread Spectrum' is disabled in bios Cell Menu, as well as 'Extreme Memory Profile' if your bios has it listed.
Are they 2GB sticks? (All the threads in question use the 2GB sticks - one 3×, and one 6×)
Back around the time I tried the BIOS flash as the solution, I Memtest86'd each of the sticks individually in the MSI-recommended slot for a single-stick configuration, and each tested perfectly. Part of the advice given at the time was to disable XMP and Spread Spectrum; they already were.
Whilst I can't be certain that the RAM is the problem, at least three threads on this board now are using 2GB Corsair 1600 sticks and having strikingly similar symptoms...
I'll try investigating the voltages later today. Thanks!

KT5 6590 board and new Barton 200fsb amd

Does anyone know if MSI will be updating the BIOS on the Kt4 6590 chipset to take the new AMD Barton 0.13 XP3000/XP3200 200FSB Processors.
I have checked the CPU support for my board and at present it says no, but When i look in my Bios I can make the FSB go upto 200 as at present its running at 166.
I am using Ver 1.4 at the mo
Thanks in advance
Daz
?( ?(

The KT400 was not made for 200fsb, it was made for DDR400. So to answer your question, I would have to say no to official supprt. As of this date, the only official support for the 200fsb CPU's would be from the nForce2. No real word yet on the KT400A yet.

Another memory/cpu question/s

I have searched the forums, and the links everyone has posted , and i cant find a answer to a few questions i have !
#1: I have seen nothing on what brand ram would work using 2-1gb in dual channel ,on the k7n2-Delta , all the tests/talk has been using 512 or smaller ,any ideas??
#2 : Can I run pc3200-400fsb memory (1gbx2) with a 333fsb Athlon-XP-3000+ , and will it lessen or gain performance by doing so??
#3 : What is the highest CPU(socket A) that i can use on the k7n2-Delta(would a 3200+ etc work ?) or am i limited to the 3000+ ,as i seem to get that feeling from some posts i have read , or if it will work would i be better off getting a 3200+-400fsb along with pc-3200 1gbx2 (refer to #2)
The reason im asking these questions is i want to add more ram (currently at 1gb and want to use 2gb ) but im not sure which brand would even work as i have seen nothing posted about using 2gb in dual channel and only a few manufacurers offer 1gb sticks ,let alone a matched set for dual channel, and i am unsure of the REAL limitations of this board and weather i would notice a difference by adding 400fsb ram while still using the 333fsb cpu , then if needed later swapping out my 333fsb cpu for a 400fsb cpu of the same speed or higher , or leaving it as is ,or if i can even do the upgrade i want to do to this board !......any help would be appreciated!!!!

well i tried the board with a barton XP3200 and a Corsair value kit 2x512mb PC3200..
didn't work well.. it froze half of the time.. when playing games... it the texture flickers..
I went to the salesman and changed my RAM to Kingston PC3500 (i know it want work at fsb433!) but underclocking is always good.. still didn't work...
it seems like its incompatibility... and the board seems to be really picky... MSI motherboards are really stabil... but to be picky? comeon... why didn't MSI made it compatible with the best ram out there...
why is it only running most of the ram on PC2700?
i suggest on finding another board if u like ur current ram and it doesn't make any errors in memtest... or check the list for compatible ram in one of the thread here..
