Hi
yes it is the cpu and northbridge which is at 400/533mhz (100/133 Mhz really). I wasnt looking for a highly techy answer, its just I was intrigued by how it manages to do two data transfers on each of the rising and falling Clk edges.
DDR is easy to see how it works, but quad transfer seems...
Hi
Can anyone explain how the P4 quad pumped bus works. I can get my head around DDR busses but quad speed is puzzling me?
For example the rising clk edge must be divided into 2 phases eg For a 3V signal, clk1 is during 0 to 1.5V transition and clk2 is during 1.5V to 3V transition. Is this how...
Hi
I have built my BG7 machine now, turned out fairly painless all seems to be working pretty well. I am happy with my 1.6A @2.24Ghz 140 FSB, 4:5 mem ratio.
The extra 12V Connector is I guess just to deliver the high 12V current straight to the CPU, reducing the resistive drop across the...
Could anyone post a link please to the USB drivers for the BG7 board. Either Win98 or XP preferably, I would settle for USB Version 1 if that is all that is available at the moment ? Thanks for any help.
Regards Geoff
Hello Tyoung
Good questions, I would like to know the answers to some of those myself, that FSB strap one seems puzzling ? I have got a BG7 on order but not got it yet so cant help you very much.
Your question about what Ram speed multiplier to use?
Firstly, as you didnt say what speed RAM...
This amused me
That question I had posed yesterday about the BG7 DDR RAM speed, for a laugh I thought I would ask ABit Tech support. Here is their reply.
Dear Customer,
Sorry, BG7 can only support PC1600 and PC2100 due to intel 845E chipset limitation. Faster RAM may not work properly on...
Thanks for the update guys, looks like that problem with the GF4 and DDR33 might be nothing too serious then. I think I will go ahead with the purchase now.
Interesting to see your test results Crapito, keep us posted with any new updates please

Hi Wildcard
At the moment I am also hoping this was an isolated incident, but it sounded like Crapito might have come across a similar problem with his GF3 board and BG7. At least Crapito managed to get to DDR333, I would be happy with that, but it would be a waste of money if I was to buy a...
Hello
Interesting thread, could I throw a question at any of you BG7 owners please?
I was just about to buy a BG7 and a GF4 when I came across this problem someone is having with his BG7 (see below).
Has anyone got DDR333 running stable with either a GF4 Ti4400 or a Ti4600 on a BG7?
This...
Hello All
I am looking at building a new P4 based PC, not finalised the Spec. yet but I have a question I could do with some thoughts on please ?
I really want a desktop case rather than a tower. Having a P4 system in a desktop case seems to be a rarity, is there a problem with the desktop...
