Tyan Tiger MP FSB Speed

[skAry]

I read the article about the Tyan Tiger MP
that sais that you *can* change the FSB
speed on the board, it's just no
documentation for it.

So i simply wonder if anyone managed to
figured out any of the speed settings. I'm
especially interested in speeds just above
133, like 143 and around that.

And is there anyone who might know
which PLL (Clock generator) the
Tyan Tiger MP use?

Look here. It all depends on what clock gen chip you have. There are additional threads about this if you search 2cpu.

Using CPUFSB on my Tyan Tiger MP rev 1.03 i was able to overclock my Athlon XP 1600s to 1800s, i have the FSB set at 150. From what I can see there is a negligable temp increase(42 deg celcius not underload). I so far my system has been stable. BTW im using Volcano 6cu+ and radeon aiw 32mb ddr. Anybody else have and experiences doing this?

No, no experience.....I'd love to do it though. I had no idea that I could even overclock using this Mobo!!

The Problem is, using my AMD stock Heat sink/fans that came with my XP 1700+'s, I idle at a constant 40c........I know that's not bad for 1700s on stock cooling, but it still scare me.

I know the volcanos are good fans because I have installed them in computers before, but they are way too loud for me.

I don't know if you guys would know about this, but in my on-line specs after running a 3Dmark 2001 benchmark, it shows that my memory is running at 100mhz. I know they should be at 133mhz(266DDR)....any idea why that would show up that way?

Also, do you know if I can use Swfitech heat sink/fans on this board? if not, what's the best high performance cooling that works with this Mobo?

thanks.

Yes, you can use Swiftech MC370-0A, or the newer version - MCX370. They cool quite well and can be paired with a quiet Papst or similiar fan.

Here are some results I acheived with Sandra,

CPU Arithmatic:
1600+=7741mips
1800+=8712mips

CPU Multimedia
1600+=15392it/s
1800+=17316it/s

1600+=17916it/s
1800+=20159it/s

MEM Bandwith
1600=1491mb/s
1800=1642mb/s

Are these results significantly different? I don't notice much of a performance change? BTW is there any downsides to running your CPU/Mem/PCI bus at a faster FSB? ie DAMAGE?
