I have an AthlonXP 1700 from Dec 2001....it initially ran at 150 fsb..11x150 1.85v...seemed stable ran 3 d games (MOHAA and RTCW) but then a month later had a power surge..yea no UPS...anyway still seemed ok but 3d games occassional crash..then in spring tried to play JKII and it would not run at 150..had to drop back to 148fsb..I figured it was a heat issue...

I have replaced my AlphaPal 6035 with AX-7 and it runs cooler and added add'n case fans..but it runs winxp no problem 150 fsb..but when trying to convert video from my camcorder I get floating point error at 150fsb but not at 148...also JKII runs forever at 148fsb but not 150fsb....

I think my early 1700 just peaked at 1630...it is not unlocked and I just do not have the desire to do it...
 
After three unlocking attempts I think I'm giving up. On the first attempt I could use a higher multiplier, but not a lower one than the 1600+'s original 10.5. But with my MSI KT3's clock generator keeping the AGP and PCI at stock MHz's using a FSB of 133, 166 and 200MHz I was able to get 170x10.5=1785. I know the CPU can do a bit over 1800MHz's using my watercooling system.

the asus a7v333 does read from the on die thermo diode
it has COP (cpu overheat protection) which is great
and it measures pretty accurately and fastly
it was,if i am not mistaken, in fact the first released board with this ability (and one of maybe 4 at the most to date)
AMD has made it clear to motherboard makers that it is required to be able to read from the on-die thermo diode so any boards released from now on or released recently should also have the ability

b00m!!!

SoulKeeper,

the fact that C.O.P. reads the internal diode was not and is not being disputed. The fact remains that C.O.P. temps aren't readable by the end-user, only a socket-thermsitor temp.

So why don't you read the above posts first, before making some broad-based statement like yorus?


Mike

P.S. Evidence against Asus Internal Diode User-reading:

Extremely small delta from idle to full load.
Lack of variability in temps despite CPU changes
Lack of variability of CPU delta from idle to load.

Now let's look at the 8k3a+ diode characteristics.

Delta ranges from 2C with watercooling to 14C with fairly agressive air cooling
WIde range of CPU temps varying with the CPU and system temp
Variability in CPU temperature delta from idle to load.

The A7v333 has no characteristics other than "higher temps' that would point to internal diode readings. The fact that the readings are high, however, is nothing new with Asus motherboards.

😀Well, I just put this together;

1. MP1900+ AGOGA if I remember the stepping right? I've got an AGOIA MP2000+ coming in a few days. Abit KX7-333R
2. 200x9 1800mhz factory unlocked - stone stable - (love those MP's)
3. Alpha Pal 8045 w/Delta 68cfm hair dryer
4. 1.8/2.65 set in bios
5. 35c idle/ 38c looping 3Dmark2001se for 2 hrs.
6. Corsair XMS pc3200 2.5-3-6-3-2T 512mb one stick. I just got this and it flat out KICKS some serious a$$.

I haven't really even pushed it yet as I'm taking it up in small steps and looping 3Dmark2001 with each step up. I'll repost when I get the new MP2000+ and go from there!!
 
ok for the time being, lets not argue about diode reading... i just want to see OCs and the specifics.

the only reason i posted that question about reading from diode is that some of the temps seemed a bit unbeleivable

so if you have an epox 8k3a then you CAN read diode, i'd have to say that asus might not have them reading that previosly posted link, but the new revision Might have it
 
Mikewarrior2 first i would like to thank you for attacking my post (it's easier to identify your type when you make yurself well known in such a fashion -heads up)
I don't think yur delta junk is any indication for or against any argument saying that the asus a7v33 does not read from the diode
there is a lot more to consider then what yur temp program tells you
such as implementation of bios logic and so forth, which can vary from motherboard to motherboard

just a thought
--Soul_keeper
 
and your statement proves that hte a7v333 reads internal diode how?

Motherboard Logic can alter an internal diode reading up or down. Motherboard logic when it comes to internal diode readings, cannot altar actual temperature changes. IE socket-thermistor compression of temperatures.

If motherboard logic manually induces a 2X-4X temperature delta compression,t hen it is no longer a diode reading. This is the case of a7v333. since the a7v333 doesn't actually give end-user the diode reading anyways, this compression is due to standard socket-thermistor compression.

And unfortunately, due to C.O.P. rading the diode, the board is AMD approved for "diode reading" even though end users can't see the diode reading.


Mike

Again, MechBGons tests linked for your reading pleasure. MechBgon's socket-thermistor a7v333 testing. Touching a cold surface to CPU backside when reading internal diode does not drasticaly reduce, nor quickly reduce CPU temp, both which happen on the a7v333.
 
I don't see any way that cooling the backside of the motherboard could >instantly< drop my CPU's core temperature by 10C, since the core is insulated from the motherboard by an air gap and the CPU substrate. Logical conclusion: if the temperature changes practically instantly and very sharply when the motherboard itself is cooled, the reading cannot be the core temperature.
 
Mikewarrior2 ok Mr. bold text
My statement doesn't prove anything and neither does yours how about you e-mail asus and stop fighting with people
i get yur point you win
I still don't believe you tho and you can't change that. (only cause i know that's what you want me to do)
nobody is right or wrong here so stop attacking people
that's the reason i posted in the first place (stating only facts)
perhaps i shoulda read the whole thread word for word and studied it hmmmm
then i woulda know that someone might misinterpret things i said
ohhh welll
maybe it doesn't read from the on-die thermal diode to get yur asus probe readings
but I wonder what the bios reading is from
and whose to say that a newer bios or motherboard revision won't implement the on-die thermal diode reading wouldn't be too hard

Motherboard Logic can alter an internal diode reading up or down. Motherboard logic when it comes to internal diode readings, cannot altar actual temperature changes. IE socket-thermistor compression of temperatures.
Click to expand...
I don't see why it wouldn't be able to alter it's own display of a temp change since they do use complex multipart equations in some cases to come across the results. compression huh thought we were talking about on-die thermal diodes

ohhh well as i said you win
--Soul_keeper
 
Oh, and my AthlonXP 1700+ is overclocked to... oops, it's not overclocked. 😕 It's my 'pooter at the office. Still feels very quick... that Seagate Cheetah X15-36LP probably has something to do with that 😀
 
all I have to say is regardless of whether or not the asus probe reads on die or not, compared to other mobo's asus reads a little high, temps in sig speak for themselves and dannybin1742, try setting your multiper to 9.5 and jack that fsb up till she can't take it no more!
 
i would but i run u10 and it is very sensitive to running out of spec, that why i'm sitting at 1/5 pci divider 166fsb, with teh 1/6 i would still be in spec, and i second the comment made a few posts back about "feeling fast cause i got a 15k hd" i got one of those too, and god da@mn it makes my system hella fast. no eide hd can compare to the 15k seagate, i wish i could find the 16mb cache version of it.

if i could, i would make love to my 15k cheetah, btw just finished "backing up" super troopers -R.B.R. > thats my motto, i'm sure you can figure out what it means

good movie
 

1. rated speed and core revision and MOBO: xp1600, agoia, kr7a-raid
2. FSBXmultiplier: 150 fsb x 11.5 for 1.73
3. type of cooling: svc gc68 h.s. with a ys tech 80mm fan.
4. Vcore/Vdimm: stock voltage for everything.
5. load and idle temps: idles at 47, full load at around 54.
6. Type of memory and timings: crucial pc 2100 (512 megs on 2 sticks) running cas2 settings.

a real bargain system that is fast enough for me.

dirty.
 
I decided to oc my XP 1900+ despite having stock hs/fan so I went up to 145 fsb and left multiplier at 12, got up to 1744 (from 1600) and only about a 3c temp rise (idle) 50c - 53c

1. XP 1900+ Abit KR7A non-raid, not unlocked
2. 145 x 12
3. Stock HS/Fan
4. 1.79 / 2.62
5. Idle: 53-54, no load
6. DDR CAS 2.5 - PC 2100 I think. (1 gig)
