Don't ask how to over-clock.

Project: Overclocking AMD XP 1600+

Hello, I have recently re-built my entire system after my OEM board and processor got fried.
What I'd really like to do is overclock my XP 1600+ from 1.4GHz to something like 2.0GHz. I have read that I will have to use conductive greece to jump two bridges. Others say that you will have to increase multipliers. Can someone assist me in doing this?

My current specs are as follows:
MSI K7N2GM2 (Specs: http://us.msi.com/index.php?func=proddesc&maincat_no=1&prod_no=597)
AMD ...

Will this work, is BIOS update needed?

I have an old computer built from an iSystems bare-bones kit in 2000. The sticker on the motherboard says it's a Procomp BVK1M V.1.0; apparently it was made by Biostar - the ID number matches the Biostar M7VKA except for the date, which is 10/07/2000 instead of 10/06/2000 like the M7VKA. Here's the info I get from Everest:

Device Description
North Bridge: VIA VT8363(A) Apollo KT133(A)

Motherboard ID 10/07/2000-8363-686A-6A6LMB09C-00

Motherboard Name Biostar M7VKA/M7VKB/M7VKD / Procomp ...

P3 upgrade not recognized

My system:
CPU Type Intel Pentium IIIE, 733 MHz (5.5 x 133)
Motherboard Name IBM 6594UN4
Motherboard Chipset Intel Camino i820
System Memory 256 MB
BIOS Type IBM (03/30/01)
Version NWKT53AUS

I got here a SL4Bs, 1000/256/133 that I tried to install, and I got an error code, 167 I think, no processor support.

Did I get too fast a processor? If so can I tweak something to make it work?

Thanks in advance.

AM3 support and possible boot problem

Hi!

I'm planning to buy a new processor, which'll be "Athlon II X4 620 AM3 2.6GHz 2MB Cache 45nm Processor." I'll use it with a "Gigabyte GA-MA790X-UD3P" motherboard.

I've looked at Gigabyte's website and saw that this motherboard does not natively support Athlon II X4 AM3 cpus. It requires a BIOS update. Now, my question is; will I be able to boot the computer at all, so as to install that BIOS update? Or will ...

ABIT LX6, Award BIOS (4.51PG), CPU Soft Menu and eSupport???

Hi, recently I tried eSupport for a BIOS upgrade on my old ABIT LX6 board but the new BIOS of course takes away ABIT CPU Soft Menu, but does not include any option to select both FSB and the CPU multiplier, which is fluctuating between 2 (on even boots) and 2.5 (on odd boots), and so I cannot run my PII-300 at its spec (66MHz x 4.5). It will never go higher than 166MHz (66MHz ...

Sempron 3000+ should run at 133MHz FSB says BIOS

Hi all,

The Sempron 3000+ in my AK79D-400 Max is run at 1600MHz (CPU Frequency detected = 133MHz). The cpu is an SDA3000DUT4D. The board should recognize it as 166MHz FSB capable.
At start up it does show 'Sempron 3000+' and sets the voltage at 1.6V which is good. So I guess Model 10 (Barton) support is only half implemented.

I noticed that for the AK79G-VN board there is a beta BIOS with Model 10 ...

Acer Extensa 5620 - Cpu not recognized

My Acer Extensa 5620 uses the GM965 chipset. It can handle a 667 or 800Mhz bus. Stock cpu is a T5250. Others have upgraded this exact model just fine to a T8300, so I assumed a T9500 would work as well. They're both Wolfdale Penryn's, both run at the same FSB, both have the same wattage... the T9500 is just 200Mhz faster and has a larger cache.

No go. Latest BIOS (from 2008) doesn't let ...

Question relating to updating BIOS when upgrading CPU/GPU

Hello,
