    K8N Neo4-F

    JungleJunk06 - it's there. Go to the Advanced Chipset Features. Set User Config Mode to manual, it'll then let you change 2T (default) to the faster 1T setting. This board never ceases to amaze me, I now have my new RMA'd board running at 345 x 8 on the 133 memclock, 100% stable. That's...

    K8N Neo4-F

    Are you sure about that? I'm running 1B right now with the ram on 133 and my HTT is at 324, not a problem in sight. I'm going to give 345x8 a try tonight, maybe this board has a higher ceiling. Though I was out of rubbing alcohol and didn't clean/reapply paste on the CPU when I did the...

    K8N Neo4-F

    Have my new RMA up and running and it's flies just as nicely as my last one (the FSB fan is a lot quieter too). I loaded the latest BIOS off of live update, 1.B I think. It doesn't have the 125 or 150 memclock options, only the standard ones (100/133/166/200). Does anyone know what the...

    K8N Neo4-F

    Well my Neo4-F bit the dust over the weekend, only 8 months in. It started up & lost all CMOS settings. Multiple CMOS resets and changing the battery both didn't help, CMOS would never save settings again. It would still boot XP and was just a little shakey on default settings for 2 days...

    Too much Thermal Grease???

    Not to threadjack, but is it actually harmful to not clean and reapply thermal compound when you remove/reapply the heatsink? (in terms of CPU life/longevity). I switched mobo's early on and kept the same stock AMD thermal pad on the CPU. I know it's recommended to reapply, but I didn't have...

    4x512 = DDR333 only?

    Thanks for the all the replies. Sounds like I should be fine going with 4x512 Corsair VS. I'd hate to go to all the hassle of ebaying the current 512s and dropping $200 on 2x1GB for the benefit of basically one game (which I already had to ditch my Ti4200 for, thanks to nVidia & EA's private...

    4x512 = DDR333 only?

    Planning to upgrade to 2GBs for BF2 like everyone else.. I know I'm forced to eat a few % with going from 1T to 2T. However, I checked my mobo's manual (MSI Neo4-F) and it states that if all banks are occupied with double-sided RAM (the 512s) then the system will run at DDR333 instead of...

    K8N Neo4-F

    I'll second that, 150 divider on the 1.6 bios is very stable, CPU-Z now correctly states my RAM speed whereas it showed simply blank on the 1.3 bios. I only infrequently crash playing CS:S, but only on very hot evenings. I may actually back down from 2.7ghz as my DVI LCD caps me at 60hz/60FPS...

    FPS difference on LCD with 12ms vs 8ms

    This is incorrect. Your FPS is insignificant beyond your refresh rate, or 60hz with DVI (75hz with analog, but I'm not sure on that one).

    K8N Neo4-F

    Cobalt, have you had problems since enabling Cool N Quiet? Almost every A64 OCing guide I read says to disable that feature, but I would like to try it out as my case noise wan't infact the NB fan, but the CPU fan, which is running faster than all hell. Also, check for my last post up the...

    K8N Neo4-F

    Cobalt, what do you have the 2 settings beneath the 1T/2T option in the BIOS set at? ("Read Preamble Value" and "Async Latency Value"). I'd prefer to leave these on auto and let my RAM's SPD value decide, but if I want to force 1T the Neo4 doesn't leave an auto selection for those 2 settings...

    K8N Neo4-F

    Thx Cobalt, strange that my PMs were off, they're back on now. Monk never got back to me via email either. I can't imagine there's any significant difference between 1.6 and 1.6.1. It's odd that MSI's site doesn't have either revision up yet, even though the other site I posted early on says...

    Help! New system won't boot :(

    These are just random thoughts, but when you tried the PS/2 keyboard, you plugged them in when the system was off correct? I know that certain BIOSes won't recognize the keyboard if it's plugged in after start-up. As soon as you turn on the power switch, hold down the DEL key. You should...

    Can anyone who's running the 1.6 BIOS confirm whether or not it has the 150 and 140 mem dividers? thanks

    K8N Neo4-F

    Cobalt, I just started gaming on mine over the weekend and subsequently had to back down on speed. I was passing Prime95 Large FFT fine at speeds north of 2770mhz, but CS:S and UT2k4 have crashed over time at anything above 2.7 flat, I'm guessing due to the added heat on the video end. It was...

    K8N Neo4-F

    Thanks for the tip Doobie. I noticed that the NB fan on the Neo4 has the insertion clips placed pretty far apart. I originally tried to use a fan from my old Epox 8k7a but the insertion clips weren't wide enough apart to fit the board. Let me know if this VGA cooler fits on your board...

    K8N Neo4-F

    It isn't detected for me either, not sure why. Once you disable the annoying "Platinum" BIOS splash screen, the regular BIOS startup screen will conveniently tell you your RAM speed and timings. It confirms that the 140 is working perfectly, not sure why CPU-Z, nTune, CoreCell, etc can't seem...

    After several days of Prime torture, my NB fan now makes the infamous leaf blower noise. Has anyone else encountered this? I'm going to look into getting a less noisey NB fan.

    K8N Neo4-F

    I'm still on the 1.3 BIOS. I brought the mem divider down to 140 last night, chip to 2772mhz (9x308), 1.6v, RAM 216mhz @ 2.5-3-3-8-1T and it Prime'd Large FFT (extra heat) test all night fine, with the room A/C off. Not bad on stock HSF, no reapplication of thermal compound.. I'd keep her...

    K8N Neo4-F

    Wow, you're using the 2:3 (133) divider too! I guess they finally fixed it. It was the BAIN of my existence for over a month. I'm sticking with v1.3 for the 140 divider, even tho whenever I use it, CPU-Z, Clockgen, and Core Center can't seem to detect my RAM speed.. SuperPi 1M still takes...

    K8N Neo4-F

    Yes, or the 1.3. I also tried the 1.7beta and it too worked beyond 220HTT where the 1.4 and 1.5 wouldn't. Although the 1.7b oddly lacks the 150 and 140 mem dividers which I use the most, so I went back to 1.3 and is all good. :) http://www.lejabeach.com/MSIK8N/k8nneo4ultra/k8nneo4.html

    K8N Neo4-F

    After much hair pulling, I solved every Neo4-F user's problem. After having such great luck out of the box, I was really hesitant to upgrade the BIOS with nothing wrong happening. Well I updated anyway, and then everything went wrong. No POST on v1.5 or v1.4. Back to v1.2 and everything is...

    Help o/cing my +3200 Venice, PULLING HAIR OUT!! :)

    2.9v is pretty high for any mem speed below stock (200). Mine hits its max (229) at stock vcore. Download motherboard monitor and take a look at your rails, maybe it's a PSU issue. Your problems seem identical to mine when I was trying to use the 133 mem divider. Maybe the Epox has...

    K8N Neo4-F

    I just did a search on anand for the Neo4-F and there many users reporting a bug with this board and overclocking past *specfically* 220 HTT. Since you are able to hit 229, I don't think you have the same problem, but try searching around. What mem divider are you using? The 133 mem divider...

    K8N Neo4-F

    Got it to replace a Gigabyte K8NS, had it for a week and love it so far! Screams with my 3000+. 2808mhz at 1.6, but I prefer to run the chip a little cooler and the RAM a little faster (at settings in my sig). I have not upgraded from the stock BIOS (3/2005 I believe). 229mhz is the max...

    Help o/cing my +3200 Venice, PULLING HAIR OUT!! :)

    Make sure Cool 'N Quiet is disabled in the BIOS. Also very important, make sure your PCI bus is locked. Usually that isn't a specific setting in BIOSes, some do it for you by default if you overclock, but for others, it requires setting the PCI core +1 to 67 (as opposed to default of 66)...

    got 3200+ venice to 2.7 but would like to take it higher

    Going back the 2.8 issue.. I'm able to hit 2.8 with my 3000+ Venice after upgrading from a Gigabyte K8NS to the MSI K8N Neo4-F, but only at 1.6volts, so I'm a little unwary at running at that voltage long term.. My maxes are: 9x312 = 2808mhz with the 140 mem divider (RAM = 216mhz...

    Corsair RAM issues on newly OC'ed Venice 3000+

    Corsair RAM issues on newly OC'ed Venice 3000+

    Be sure to check out FiringSquad's X800XL roundup if you're in the market for one. They also show OC'ing results (tho they don't say if they are maximums, I'm skeptical that they couldn't push the Asus more than they did). Unfortunately they don't rank the Connect3D, but the reviews on newegg...

    Corsair RAM issues on newly OC'ed Venice 3000+

    I'll check the BIOS version after work, but I'm running it stock from the box and haven't checked for upgrades yet. Since the X800XL is also a new addition to the system, it's hard to discern how each fan independently sounds, but nothing sounds too loud. When I had the case door off, I could...

    Corsair RAM issues on newly OC'ed Venice 3000+

    How fast can your RAM handle? If you can hit 220-230, then there are plenty of options with the 166 divider. Does the Epox have the 150 or the 141 divider?

    Corsair RAM issues on newly OC'ed Venice 3000+

    Well I finally fired everything up last night. Popped in the new Neo4. I didn't reapply thermal paste, might've been a good idea, but it looked like a sticky job to get all the AMD stock grease off the heatsink and chip (would GluGone do the trick?). They were both pretty well coated so I...

    Any recs on the BIOS/CPU temperature monitor software? I thought CPU-Z would have that info but it doesn't. What's that standard app that everyone uses?

    AMD Athlon FX-57 review!

    I agree, though since my weakness is the vdimm on this mobo, I don't trust any tests that incorporate RAM. We'll wait and see how things go with the Neo4, I'm perfectly happy with 2.7, 50% overclock is plenty.

    AMD Athlon FX-57 review!

    1.6 volts. It's stable running Prime95 small FFT torture 24/7, however I still can't get my RAM to run alongside with it even at DDR333 (which is most likely a vdimm issue on my Gigabyte K8NS which is going back to newegg tomorrow to replaced by a MSI K8N Neo4). So with the chip...
