Overclocking a 1.2 Celeron (L2 256kb) with Intel D815EEA2?

I don't think it's possible, without extensive electronic hacks to the Mobo and modifications to the BIOS. But there are two issues here - one is just to get the chip to work on that mobo with respect to the voltage - this may be a bit simpler if anyone knows how to - I don't know if the normal...

P3 800/133 and BX chipset?

I have a BX board (ga-bx2000) that will only run at FSB=120MHz. This is probably your worst case, then your CPU will run only at 722MHz. For a BX board like this you really need a chip with FSB=100. Maybe your board is better than this - Good luck!

what's the fastest Celeron for a 810e mobo? edit ans: 1.1ghz fc-pga

if you are adventurous you should be able to put a Tualatin chip in it and go up to 1.4GHz, and maybe overclock it too. I put a Tualatin Celeron 1.1A in my 815 motherboard (CUSL2) and am running that at 1.46GHz stable. But you have to isolate some pins and bridge a few others with thin wire...

Difference between P4B533 and P4B533-V?

I have the P4B533-V. You can't use the integrated graphic controller because the performance is too poor and it slows down your memory access because the graphics card shares the system memory. There have been a lot of problems with this board with respect to memory overclocking. If you want...

memory for P4B533-V

Latest: With BIOS 1004.014 the P4B533-V will do 3:4 memory ratio. This makes the board much more attractive. I still have difficulty running memory at CL2, but I don't know whether this is a P4B533-V problem (others have also reported it) or whether it is just my Corsair XMS3000C2 stick. But...

3/4 mem dividers on p4b533-V above 132fsb

Yes, I have tested it (Beta Bios 1004.014), it works and is stable (prime95 and Sandra burn-in simultaneously for 8 hours). My 1.8A on the P4B533-V is now running at FSB=143 (2.57GHz, 1.65v, 55 C under load, standard cooling) with the memory at 3:4 (190MHz, 2.65v, 2.5-3-3-6, Turbo). CL2 still...

p4 mobo needs : AGP/PCI lock, stable pc2700 166mhz bus +

I had problems with an 8IEXP, so wouldn't recommend. I now have a Asus PbB533-V which is OK, but none of the 845G boards can run memory fast at CL2. You have been warned! Best buy is a P4B533 or P4B533-E.

845G Chipset Memory Problem???

Must say, I am quickly running out of theories here. Every time that there seems to be a way of identifying the cause of the problem then someone pops up to shoot it down. Odeen, you are running the memory at 166MHz CL2. But what is your FSB frequency? Are you running a "B" chip at...

845G Chipset Memory Problem???

Interesting, that seems to point back at the Corsair memory as being the problem! There is no way that I can achieve that at FSB=140 at 4:5 (memory at 175MHz) with my 512Mb Corsair XMS 3000C2. Or even at 165MHz memory speed! Unfortunately my 1.8a doesn't like going over FSB=140. Which I can...

Many users of the P4B533-V motherboard, including myself, have had problems with this motherboard running memory at high speeds (+160MHz) at CL2. Many of the problems have been with Corsair XMS, but this has also happened with other brands. With this motherboard you have to run memory at...

Help Me Pick A P4 1.8A MotherBoard! URGENT!

The Asus P4B533 (not E (raid), V (graphics) or VM) is a good basic board, and is a good overclocker. But probably more expensive than some of the other alternatives.

Why don't you try to get your computer stable without Windows, ie using memtest86 or other to just boot into floppy and test memory (also at 220MHz until you are sure that it is stable. At least you then know that your hardware is more or less OK. Then try Windows - if you can't get that...

Couple of questions regarding p4 mbs

1) It will make a big difference, and yes it will be much faster than RDRAM 1066. 2) The performance seems to be pretty much the same, just more overclockable (sometimes!). The exception may be the SIS648 which some reports suggest could be faster. my .02's worth.

memory for P4B533-V

It also depends on how much you want to spend. But as a minimum, get decent PC2700 DDR memory. This runs at 166.5 MHz. If you use a FSB = 133, and a memory ratio of 4:5, then you run PC2700 memory at specification. This is probably the minimum that any enthusiast will want to do. Of course...

There seems to be some uncertainty as to whether the P4B533-V can do meaningful memory overclocks. Many people have been having difficulties. Until this is resolved you may be safer buying a P4B533-E, which seems to easily do 200MHz DDR O/C. In this case, of course, you buy the best memory...
