Anybody tried running T-bred's in a Tyan Tiger MP? Will this work?

[BatmanNate]

I saw that Newegg has the $92 2100+ T-bred's with free shipping, and I think this would be a nice upgrade to my 1500+'s that are in there right now. I can't seem to find any accurate info on whether or not the board will support the new T-bred "b" however. Bueller?

Bump.

So long as you close the L5 bridge, they should work fine.

What's the L5 bridge? Does that disable SMP on the new chips? I heard a lot of motherboards don't support T-bred's, and mine only "officially" supports MP's, and I was looking to see if anyone has tried it. I posted over on 2cpu's forums as well. Can you still unlock these with the rear window defogger pen?

Modding the Athlon XP into an MP

Works the same with T-Breds.

i modded my 1900+'s on a tiger mpx board but for some reason I am getting odd lockups in prime95 now. any ideas? it is not a heat issue, no temps over 52c, not a memory issue either i think because i have ran memtest86 for three days straight no errors, i can run dnet-rc5-72 for a week straight with no issues, but prime95 locks it up after 30 minutes. could this have anything to do with the modding?

Could be a power consumption issue. Did you check your voltages?

i have and they don't seem bad at all. I have an antec 400 watt. Itsn't it kind of odd that prime95 would lock it after 30 minutes but dnet is fine for 7+ days..? that can't mean its a power consumption issue right..?
