7.5x140 - try it, you'll like it.

 

[Hanpan]

Done

No mam.

 

[Becks2k]

i like 7.5x150 myself

 

[Mannix]

can't get mine stable at 7.5x150 - any suggestions

 

[DarthSideous]

today at 100x10.5, monday at 140x7.5 and beyond....I should have my new kt7a by then, woohoooo

 

[Bignate603]

hmm, that's a thought, i may just buy a new board and see how fast i can get my 800 t'bird going. It's almost certain i can hit 8x133 (i haven't bothered to unlock the thing).

Heh, my A7V won't even do 107MHz stable (I know, it's a KT133, doesn't do more than about 105-110 usually, I'm just saying it for effect ) My A7V133 that I will get soon, on the other hand, will hopefully do 140 fine

 

[Bartman39]

Hehehehe... 11.5X156 is even better...


(of course thats what the memory is at not the fsb...)

I think you will be happy with it as long as you have some decent RAM. Just to LYK though, I still have trouble running multiple sticks of Infineon 2x256MB, or Mosel Vitelic 3x128MB counting the RAM amount correctly at CAS2, even with the latest 1003A BIOS.

The best RAM that I have found to work in my A7V133 is single sided 128MB sticks of Crucial CAS2 PC133. If my 1200 would not top out at a little over 1400MHz, the inexpensive Crucial would run at 150MHz CAS2 just fine. It does great at the 148MHz CAS2 that it is set at currently. I actually got the system to POST, and make it to the Windows splash screen at 1500MHz today, with the RAM at 3-2-2 (10x150). I then ran at 1450, but crashed soon after Windows booted. Then I tried 1425, and made 4 loops of the 3DMark2000 Demo before crashing. Oh well..1405MHz 100% stable at 148/148 CAS 2-2-2 is not bad. I can live with it If I were to do the voltage mod, I am pretty sure that I could run at 1500, but at 1405, I only need the voltage set at 1.80.

The bottom line is that the A7V133 is the best board that I have run out of a bunch I have tried, with the exception of the IWill KA266-R Rev. 1.3 DDR board. If it only had the ability to raise the voltage to the AGP/PCI, it would be my primary box. Right now it is doing very well as my backup system. I have a request in for IWill to include a BIOS I/O voltage adjustment other than just the jumpered DDR RAM voltage adjustment that they have now, in a future BIOS revision if possible.

I have a 1.1tbird and a a7v133 which does quite nicely at 8.5x150
