Nice overclock.

2v is risky for sure if you intend to keep the cpu longer than 6mths!

Amazing overclock ,I hope you're keeping a sharp eye on cpu temps!:Q

Btw do you think you've got a fast enough rig to get to number 2 in this chart?.
If your interested lmk.

Goi ... the comparisons in Sandra are guesses by Sandra to a system of similar components.

All you have to do is change the comparisons to whatever you want ... and they will stay defualted to them from then on.

They do for me anyway.

As for the OC... I cant believe the 3dMark isnt higher.
Adding a 9700pro will probably only add 2k to the score. (maybe)
My 9700pro is running 94fsb... which is pretty high ... dunno about 200... (without a AGP lock)
(the KT333 and KT400 chipset defualt to 1:1 CPU to MEM over 165 I believe so your divider is going to run the AGP even higher)
I was running 193, but backed down after cracking my OC. Running 193 had the AGP at 97fsb.
Then I broke it again when at 191 (over 16k 3dMark) ... now im 189... and I'm unbreakable now.

I guess I'm glad I selected the old KT333 board.

Check my AMDbox.. see if you can get more out of the memory.

I cant believe the 3dMark says 200fsb and the score is that low.

nice OC man

Noid, the problem is...I can't even choose from any single processor systems...the minumum I have in mine are dual processor systems...maybe I should take that as a compliment to my system speed?

 

[Noid]

I just took a look at the Sandra bandwidth score .. which is not far off from what mine was at 193 ...

That leads me to believe its the MB or the KT400.

Buying a 9700pro might comprimize that nice OC on the CPU. Cuz .. I heard of users that have problems keeping thier OC at higher FSB's on the AGP.

Goi ... ya ... that could be a viable answer ... what is your score ? ... I just want to see what my Sandra says at the score you have.

I just ran my Sandra CPU again ... but it doesnt show multi-CPU's for me..

My score exceeds the highest rated CPU on the Single CPU systems.
(Intel P4-B {2-SMT} 2.8 Ghz 512 L2)

So .. i dunno whats up with your comparisions. ... I'd still like to see what your score is.

My Dhrystone is 7569MIPS and my Whetstone FPU/SSE is 1734/3947 MFLOPS. Its not amazingly high...

It's most likely the KT400 chip... I know it has some MEM issues and it's prolly causing me from not getting higher score is sandra... as far as the 3DMark score... i'm heart broken... my buddies have a 2400+ at 2.35GHz with the same video card and they got over 15Ks... I don't know what's wrong and I'm embarrased lol... I think it's the video card though... I could jump the 9700Pro or even the 9500Pro and try to flash it but I'm eagerly waiting for the Nvidia FX card...

my old ABIT KX7-333R was very good and fast... but back than I had PC2700 memory and it wouldn't go to 200fsb at aggessive timings... i'm all aggressive, i gotta have CL2/2/2/6/1T with 4 bank-interleave...

I think it's OK at 2.00 volts... i had it up at 2.20 volts @ 2586MHz (at 2.6GHz winXP wouldn't load) for about 15 minutes but the temps jumped to 70*C and the PC shut down automatically for security reasons... *sigh* if i only had water...

Especially if you change your CPU as frequently as your car oil!

Do you know how frequently some people change their car oil?

no lie. Folks like me, change the oil at least every 4 weeks usually closer to 3 1/2 weeks, field engineers in the middle of nowhere do a ton of driving.(and that's 5000mi. per change)

 

[ReiAyanami]

u drive 250 miles a day?! based on 5 work days a week

VFAA .. I used a WPCREDIT edit value for my KT333 that gave me more performance.

WPCREDIT VALUES

Since I knew how to find this ... here it is...

I DONT TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR IMPROPER USE OF THIS TOOL !!!
(justlikeoverclocking ... at ur own risk)

BUT !!! --- I WILL TAKE CREDIT FOR THE AMAZING RESULTS OF THESE LITTLE KNOWN SECRETS (j/k)

Write down your Sandra score BEFORE and AFTER.

I google on 'WPCREDIT KT400 memory'

(u'lll find more stuff) including cooling ... which will drop your temps by 10C

again ... write down the b4 and after on your temps for us.
