OK, its up and running! 1600 benchmarks are kinda pathetic tho. temps are funny too...

room temp = 25*C
CPU idle temp = 28*C
CPU max temp = 32*C :Q L O L!

133fsb is next....

 

[Flashram]

What hard drive are you using?

 

[zzzz]

1600mhz 100fsb = 1.56v (default)

Isnt it 1.5V or is it due to the motherboard reading?

 

[THUGSROOK]

i really didnt think anyone would care what HD i use :Q
Maxtor DM+ D740X 6L040J2 40gb (ata133/7200rpm/2mb)

-----------------------
133fsb ran on default voltage - big surprise huh?
ill let you all know when this starts to get interesting

140fsb is next...

 

[THUGSROOK]

yea zzzz, 1.56v is what i get when i set it to AUTO or 1.5v.
(asus boards usually overvolt) because of this i always post what my vcore is in windows. (actual)

 

[THUGSROOK]

...140fsb on default voltage.

145fsb is next....

 

[AlexKN1]

why is everyone getting 1.6A these , why not the 2.26

 

[oldfart]

why is everyone getting 1.6A these , why not the 2.26

1.6A retail $140.00
2.26 retail $274.00

 

[THUGSROOK]

AlexKN1 ~ half the price

------------------
...145fsb on default voltage still.

150fsb is next....

 

[galtsfan]

Thugs I took it up to 170FSB but it took all of the 1.7v available to do it... temp went up to 60C, so

I'll wait till I get the Alpha to try it again....do you have to do the wire mod to get higher voltage or is

there a hack?

 

[THUGSROOK]

galtsfan ~ check your idle voltage from windows. dont use more than 1.75v!
on a p4b533 setting 1.7v usually equals 1.75-1.77v in windows.

 

[galtsfan]

Thugs- Yeah I've noticed that, loaded (Prime95) it goes down to 1.63-1.65v.

 

[THUGSROOK]

...150fsb and still on default voltage.

155fsb is next....

this is where it gets interesting folks
my "other" 1.6A (a 3/19/02) can run these benchmarks on default voltage.....

np, feel free
(i just copy pasted it from one of my old threads too)

 

[SupermanCK]

man...I don't want to take out my Volcano again...I am just going to bench everything from 1.700v...taking out that piece of $hit is a pain...and then reapplying AC3...and putting that tiny wire in takes some skills when you don't have perfect vision

 

[wtfOO]

my 1.6a chip from malaysia says its max cpu speed is 2400 mhz in Asus Probe. Can it go higher. I am runnin a Volcano 7+ wit AS3. thanks for any help.

 

[THUGSROOK]

SupermanCK ~ nothing like the old P3 slot1 days eh? ...swap a cpu in less than 30 seconds!

be careful not to rip the cpu out of the socket when removing the heatsink :Q
"twist" it a few times to make sure its free from the cpu - youll see what i mean.

-----------------------
....155fsb and still on default voltage

160fsb is next.....

woohoo! so far so good!
only 1 more hurdle - in order to "beat" my old 1.6A i need to run 160fsb on 1.6v or less :Q
impossible?

 

[THUGSROOK]

wtfOO ~ ignore that, it doesnt mean anything.

 

[wtfOO]

Thanks

 

[wtfOO]

Could i reach 2700 mhz or higher with keepin the default Vcore?

 

[THUGSROOK]

wtfOO lol! - you tell me

 

[wtfOO]

haha airte...ill try it out sometime.

 

[THUGSROOK]

....160fsb needed only 1.6v to complete the benchmarks

166fsb is next.....

woohoo! this a better chip than my old one so far (by .025v)
lets see how she does @ 166.
