I am running a 2100+xp oc'd to 2600+ and another 2100+xp oc'd to 2700+. I have MSI nforce2 boards on both of them. On the faster one I am running corair low latencey memory though is the only difference between the 2 systems... hopefully I will get enough money together soon to get a third system up and running. :D

I have a watercooled cpu as well. However if I try to overclock, even 100mhz, i start to get errors in Prime95. Should I bump of the vcore or what
I have a xp2600(333) on viakt400 board with 1024 pc3200, 2 WD 80gb SE hdd, geforce 4 ti4200. Any suggestions?
Im running at 30c.

BTW, what team do you crunch for extreme?

Ya, Bump the Vcore up a little at a time till you stop getting the errors in Prime95. Dont know how much your going to get out of a via chipset though.

I crunch for team15 www.speedguide.net

11-30-2003, 04:10 PM

drop the multplier and get more fsb. That chip can go alot further on watercooling that what you have it.

I have tried everything to get it higher i can only get it to about 205FSB but 200 is not bad for a 133 CPU i think. I have even lowered the FSB and raised the multiplier. The highest i have ever got this CPU was 2400MHz but could not run stable. Im pretty happy with my almost 600MHz overclock.

I also had a 2500+ barton but didnt like it as well and the most i could get out of it was 2300Mhz even though it had more cashe it didnt perform as smooth at that speed as the 2100+ does

Jeff

12-02-2003, 03:32 AM

I can't get anywhere with mine. If I clock my 2600 to 2800 (2.25) it runs sluggish and usually crashes. I have watercooling :evil:

TA_Super_10

Well the VIA 400 only supports 333FSB but I think the 400A supports 400FSB. Maby if you go with the 400A, 600 or Nforce2 (2nd revision) then you should get 2300Mhz+ easy. Also check the 12v rail on your PSU. Did you wire trick it to unlock it?? as a locked CPU will not let you raise the FSB as high as a unlocked CPU will.
And last check your ram run www.memtest86.com on it, but only 1 strip in at a time.

Jeff

12-03-2003, 11:51 AM

What wire trick...explain!
Jeff

TA_Super_10

12-03-2003, 05:35 PM

You take a small section of wire (i like to use the wire inside of and old IDE cable) and you connect the 2 pins that is marked in the picture. The good thing about this is that there is no cutting of the bridges and if you overclock and burn up your CPU AMD cant tell you overclocked it :D but and it only unlocks multipliers 12.5 and lower.

have you tried the wire trick yet to unlock your CPU's and see how far you can get them? I want to see how far you can get with your setup.

I believe it goes 2000+ and lower are unlocked and 2100+ and higher are locked.

I run a 2.66P4 and my new baby the 3.0HT. Will adjusting my ram speed make a huge difference or will the bios just resort back to the normal speed? Running pc3200 now is there any need to adjust?

Bionic_Redneck

12-30-2003, 12:06 AM

higher rams speed will increase performance but raising fsb up does more than increase memory bandwidth also increases hdd, agp, and cpu speeds. I don't know what divisor you have but I like to keep my pci bus to 37-38 mhz any higher and I lose my network card occationally and have had a hdd get corrupted once w/ bus speed 41mhz.

some other dc projects that are more favorable to intel cpus. distributed folding is decent with p4's and 17 or bust is suppose to be pretty good too. I think they now have a client that can use sse2 and another project that good is folding@home if you use the advmethod flag to use gromacs core it make p4's about equalto xp's what I mean is a p4 3ghz is on par with a xp 3000+ or even a little faster then they have been talking about having a new core for sse2 for awhile now

whens a good time to upgrade to a faster cpu?
board will handle up to 3 ghz

Bionic_Redneck

01-01-2004, 04:20 PM

now is a great time to upgrade. The newer 1800+'s are overclocking past 2.5 ghz not bad for a $50 cpu.

01-01-2004, 04:31 PM

sorry for being off topic
is it possible to oc'd this one?

Bionic_Redneck

01-01-2004, 04:59 PM

yea you could. the older steppings don't overclock as well but I would guess 1.8 ghz wouldn't be to difficult but you may want to increase vcore a little if it gets unstable. I would recommend not going past 1.8v unless you have top of line cooling. The more you raise vcore the more heat cpu will produce.

They had a guy that posted some benchmarks of a xp 1800+ on another site (don't remember stepping) overclocked past 2.7 ghz. I would say thats definitely worth upgrading

Welcome em99010pepe. Are you running Ubero in text mode? It is faster than GUI mode. Also IBM Java is quicker than Sun Java. However, as I discovered recently it is a whopping 161 Mb d/load cf to Sun's at 30-ish Mb for the SDK version.

em99010pepe

01-01-2004, 09:47 PM

Welcome em99010pepe

Thanks.

Are you running Ubero in text mode?

Yes I am. I have SDK version installed but I can't put Ubero running in server mode. In Ubero's page says it is quicker.

PS(sorry if my english isn't good)

Bionic_Redneck

01-02-2004, 02:17 AM

I don't think there is a server mode. Maybe there was one in older version I couldn't say but in IBM's 1.4.1 java for linux there wasn't a sever mode.

I don't have that much money to through around, so I've only got one computer running all my DC projects, games, school work, etc. It's an AthlonXP2400+ @ 2155 (195x11) running XP Pro.

Hm, I see that your rigs a different league to what we're running back here in Central Europe. I own 1 GHz Morgan Duron overclocked to 1.16 GHz (you don't seem to use value CPUs), though I'll be upgrading to Thoroughbred 2400+ withing two weeks.

Keith75

02-29-2004, 10:50 AM

Hey Jarous! I was just reading you post and wondered something. Can you not get the faster CPUs over there or are they just way to expensive? Welcome to the board!

Welcome Jarous. What DC project are you using?

Jarous

03-06-2004, 08:15 AM

Sorry for replying so long. I've been actually preparing for the CPU upgrade and ruined my BIOS. So now I am typing this on 80486SL notebook hooked on 18 kbps dial-up modem. What do you say to that :shock: ? Fortunately, my uncle owns an EEPROM programmer so I can get the reflash pretty soon. Then it will be Athlon XP 2600+.

em99010pepe, I am (or better said, was, before I tried to flash the BIOS) running the Lifemapper.

Keith75, yes, hardware is available much later here than in the US or western Europe and usually more expensive. But not by much. It's the relative price. $500 CPU might not be that expensive for someone with annual earnings of $50,000. But here - the average annual income is about $5,000. So even if the hardware is approximately the same price it's ten times that expensive relatively.

Just like in Portugal. We live in the third world.

Jarous, do you have bandwidth limits?

03-06-2004, 10:43 AM

Jarous, do you have bandwidth limits?
Severe. I normaly (when I have a working PC) use 56 kbps dial-up. Telephone fees are a pain. But ADSL is making inroads into the country. I recon that within a year I'll get one myself.

Well got a new CPU over a month ago. 2500+ Mobile with the barton core, i reach speeds of 2300MHz easy 200 X 11.5 and my Vcore is only 1.625v thats still lower than the normal bartons.
