POST your xp OCs, i'll start with mine....new OCs posted

[dannybin1742]

HEy just got my waterrig up and online, currently running 1500mhz on a 166fsb (unlocked cpu)

things to put down
1. rated speed and core revision and MOBO
2. FSBXmultiplier
3. type of cooling
4. Vcore/Vdimm
5. load and idle temps
6. Type of memory and timings

so i'll start with mine

1. xp1600+ AGOIA, EPOX 8k3a
2. 166 X 9
3. watercooling
4. default 1.75V/2.6Volts
5. 35 idle/39load .......so far
6. genuine samsung pc2700 @ 2-6-2 2T (have not messed with this yet)

now if i just had some free time, and a 1/6 pci divider......

more ocs to come, just give me a few days to push the core, i know this core will go way higher, but i'm in the process of running looping nature demos to test stability

 

[DaFanMan]

Okay here goes:

1. xp1600+ AGOIA (From Google Gear, 1.4ghz), Iwill XP333R
2. 150 X 10.5 (1.57ghz)
3. Volcano 7
4. Core Listed at 1.86 in my hardware monitor
5. 43* Full load (DVD Encoding 100% CPU for 20 minutes)
6. 1 stick 128mb PNY 1 Stick Micron Memory, default timings haven't had time to mess much

Going to play around with all the memory timings and once I get my Active Memory cooling installed going to crank up the FSB to 166mhz and let my 1/5 PCI divider kick in

[Cruze8]

well I guess I'll go next

1)Athlon XP1600+ AGOIA Asus A7V333 (Non Raid Ver)
2)190x9.0 1710mhz
3)Extreme Air Cooling. Thermalright SLK-800w/84cfm Vantec Tornado 80mm fan, 1 120mm intake 1 80mm intake and a 120mm exhaust, Also a 10,000 btu air conditioner to keep ambient temps at 19c

wtf..i tried to unlock my XP 2100+ six times so far..i thought i hit the spot on my last 2 tries..everything looked perfect. I applied supregule to the laser cut, let it dry for 10-15mins. Apply Defogger window repair kit paint to connect the bridges..no cross connection..evrything neat and clean. but the thing is still not unlocked..i dont know what i'm doing wrong. HELP!!!!!!

 

[Egrimm]

Although I use an oc'ed P4 1.6A for my main rig now I still have my old Athlon XP as a secondary rig:

1. 1600+ (1.4Ghz), AGOIGA, MSI K7T Pro2 RU
2. 160x10,5 (haven't unlocked it), 1680Mhz
3. Air, Alpha PAL8045 with 46.5cfm Papst fan, another two as case-fans
4. 1.85/2.7
5. 34 idle / 42 load
6. 1Gb (two 512Mb modules) Kingston pc2100 @ 2.5/3/3/7 (cannot remember, was the least agressive possible)

 

[grunjee]

Right now I'm running it a little different than in my sig...

XP 1600+ (1400 MHz) AROIA-Y, week 13 of 2002.
167x11 = 1850 MHz .... This chip will do 1766 MHz stable at DEFAULT Vcore
Watercooled [DD Maze2, Eheim 1048, D-Tek heater core]
1.95 / 2.9
Load about 50 *on die* -- recently lowered my rad fan speed, has resulted in increased temps.
Crucial PC2100 -- Running at 167, Max aggressive timings ("Turbo" in bios)

Lovin' that AROIA goodness!!!

 

[XBoxLPU]

1.)XP2000+ ? ( Newegg ), Abit KX7-333
2.)190X9.5 = XP2200 ~ 1.81ghz
3.)AX-7 with Delta 68CFM
4.)1.775 Vcore, DDR Voltage is 2.7
5.)48C Load, 35-40C idle

7.) 5:2:1 Divider

2790/2500 Sandra Memory Score

8627 3dmark

 

[dannybin1742]

man having a fast fsb really kicks up the 3dmark score, mine jumped 1000 points going from 133 to 166 and a cpu oc of 100mhz.

some of these temps posted are not from the internal cpu diode, they are way too low, i'm water cooling and i'm reading from my internal cpu diode (literally inside xp chip), my temps are actual. my actual idle is 35 with an ocational dip to 34, but room temp is 26C, so maybe with some AC it will drop lower.

i think only the epox kt333 boards show internal cpu diode temp, and maybe the a7v333- but i'm not sure on that one

 

[dannybin1742]

hey grunjee,

where did you get you aroia? i hear that one ocs slightly better than agoia cores interms of when a voltage bump is needed to increase stability.

anways nice OC

If only epox would pull their thumb out of their A$$ and give me a d@mn 1/6 divider, i know this baby can run at 200fsb

 

[Egrimm]

You're right, as my mobo doesn't support the ondie-diode (most Athlon mobos don't) my temps are from the socket thermistor.
Most people will get temps from that and because it's so far off their temps cannot really be used to anything as it varies so much from setup to setup, even with the same mobo.

 

[jaybee]

1 - XP1600+ AROIA (or possibly AGOIA, can't recall) on Abit KT7a rev1.3
2 - 12x140fsb (I think northbridge is holding me back) for a total of 1680MHz
3 - Cheapo ($7.50) Speeze Big Rock II rated only to 1700+
4 - 1.85v indicated, 1.81v actual
5 - idle 45C, load 52C
6 - PC150

Nice upgrade from Slot A classic for about $160. Very disappointed in fsb overclock though. I'm gonna pull the northbridge hsf and see if I can do something about it. I get about 9650 3dmarks with my Ti4400 at 305/620 though. Also, I'm sure there's at least another 100MHz in my chip (with better cooling), but my mem & fsb are the bottlenecks now.

Got 2 AROIA-Y's, including this one, from Newegg. Both AROIA's and AGOIA's are excellent overclockers, but actually the ones that go the highest tend to be AGOIA's from what I've seen.

Edit: I just updated my post above to show that my chip will do 1766 MHz rock stable (Prime95 stable) at *default Vcore* -- that is pretty friggin' sweet if you ask me... a 2100+ right out of the box.

 

[Cruze8]

Dannybin1742;
The A7V333 Also reads temps from the xp's internal diode.

 

[Mikewarrior2]

the a7v333 does not read the internal diode, at least not in a way the end-user can see the temps. Fellow forum member MechBGon did a test a few months ago, the readings that the asus a7v333 gives the end user-both in bios and in "windows" through MBM and Asus Probe are socket-thermistor.

These temps are measured via an SMD resistor in the socket-base. This, unfortunately, is not uncommon. However, at least the A7V333 C.O.P. function reads the int. diode and provides the user with cpu thermal protection.

But the COP temp isn't readable by end user.

[Cruze8]

I beg to differ mikewarrior I have done tests aswell whereas I've measured the asus probe temps vs a thermal diode touching the core of the cpu. and the asus probe temps are about 8-10c higher than the temps read from the temp probe attached to the side of the core, this suggests that infact the asus a7v333 does read from the internal diode rather than an insocket thermistor. also note that temps read from a Epox 8k3a will be about 8-10c higher than a probe touching the core, seeing as it is known that the epox uses the internal diode I think it's safe to say the a7v333 does infact use the internal diode readings, it is possible that the forum member you speak of was using an old rev of the board.

 

[Mikewarrior2]

Cruze8,

since you need evidence to convince you, very well.

Asus temps have always been in the "Higher" temp range as far as socket-thermistor temps go. Just because it is higher does not signify internal diode. They are hihger because of how Asus compensates their socket-thermistor temps.

Just because you "tested" versus side-mount thermsitor does not mean you've tested against socket-thermistor. Here's the link:Scroll down for MechBGons tests

Backside drastic temperature adjustment is the clear-cut sign that the tmep reading is socket-thermistor rather than internal diode. Cooling pins does not result in drastic Intenral temperature drop.

So, in your method of testing, all Asus boards read the internal diode, even those with tbird cpus? All asus temps have been in the 50-60C range regardless of CPU for quite some time now.

[Boonesmi]

my xp1500+ runs perfectly happy on a 166mhz bus, giving a speed of 1666mhz or xp2000+ (my board has the 1/5th pci divider so the rest of the system is in spec)

the nice part is that it runs this speed at default voltage so i dont have to worry to much about heat output

 

[Cruze8]

mikewarrior, like I said in my last post that he was probably using a diffrent revision of the a7v mobo and after reading through that post you linked to I noticed a few things, first he's using a diffrent mobo then me and second he states a lag time stating that that is one of the ways he knows it's insocket thermistor, however my temps don't have the same lag time that his seems to have, I belive that because he's using a diffrent version of than me that's why his could be insocket whereas mine is internal diode, also Ive inspected the area inside the socket of my mobo and have seen no trace of a thermistor.

 

[WarCon]

Cruze, I was wondering if you really thought that a 2C variation from idle to full load is realistic for an internal diode measurement? Just curious.

 

[Cruze8]

well I guess you have me there. but also could that be explained by very good cooling?

 

[Mikewarrior2]

Warcon,

LOL.


Cruze8,

You don't get it. You can look all you want for a "thermistor" on an a7v333. In fact, you can do the same on the A7V266, 133, 266-E, A7M266, etc. All Asus socket-a boards since the a7v have not had a standard "thermistor" per say in the socket. Asus has used (and continues to use) SMD-resistors in teh base of the socket for tmep measurement. So yes, any of those resistors in the base could be the one used for temp reading. THe lack of a "thermistor" or "traditional thermistor" doesn't mean internal diode reading. Just like lacking a thermistor doesn't make hte A7V266E an internal diode reading motherboard.

The a7v333 does not have any characteristics of an intenral diode reading motherboard, and that is any given version or revision.

its very hard to lag "temp responses" when your temps move a total of 2C. How long is htis "lag free response" anyways?. This reply is very important.


Mike

 

[Mikewarrior2]

Doubtful that your "good cooling" has naything to do with a 2C delta. even if your CPU only shifted from 45W to 75W full load to "idle without idle hack", you're looking at 12.6C over ambient to 21C over ambient.

THat's a shift of 7-8C from idle to full load that you shoudl be seeing with your particular combo


Mike

 

[WarCon]

The only reason I ask is that is an incredibly small delta that even great watercooling probably couldn't pull off. I was also noting that your ambient is 19C and your using two 120's so your case temp is probably pretty low. My idle was rarely but a few degrees above my case temp (system). And my delta was 10-12C with a average watercooler and that was with a low reading thermistor and an external thermistor. While that heatsink is a really good one, it isn't magic. There is a science to thermodynamics.

So either your machine isn't idling (can be checked with resource meter) or your temperature readings are wrong.

Only reason I commented was for you to look into it yourself, not as a slam so please don't take it as such. I think this place should be a place we come for real answers and real solutions and not more disinformation. We have some really good members that take the time to actually do the footwork to find out things. Mikewarrior2 wouldn't of bothered to comment if he wasn't pretty sure what was up.

Just my two cents.

 

[Cruze8]

well you both make some excellent points, I guess I am wrong, please excuse my rashness in my earlier posts, I've just been under alot of stress lately and working too many hours!
