Getting an Asrock 4core Dual mobo... question
slngsht replied to slngsht's topic in General hardware discussion
Confirmed. I set it to auto and could change the multi and have it stick. Time to learn how to voltmod. Thanks again guys! -
Getting an Asrock 4core Dual mobo... question
slngsht replied to slngsht's topic in General hardware discussion
So I went ahead and got one. What a piece of garbage I received. Mine somehow has the PT880 Pro chipset instead of the Ultra. FSB wall on it is 290, and I can't get it to run a higher multiplier than 10 on my qx6700. I can physically enter in any multiplier my heart desires (from 6 to 60), save settings, restart, then bam, it's back to 10. /facepalm This is with the 2.39a bios. http://valid.canardpc.com/show_oc.php?id=1592842 -
It wasn't because I didn't mount it right. I changed the jumpers with it mounted, and it worked, where it didn't before. I am surprised that the pins in the adapter descended down into it though. I wonder if I should bake it to reset the solder after I reset the pins. Also, would this adapter change the VID of coppermines as well? That would help a bit with some of my older celerons. Here are some pics showing the descended pins on the adapter:

YES!!!! It works! I'm so happy right about now... thank you so much Mr. Scott!! Now I'm just wondering if the jumpers can fool the motherboard into thinking that the default voltage is higher, and trick the motherboard into allowing more voltage to be fed to the chip than it normally would. (the voltage ceiling on this board limits it, and I always max it out)

lin-lin. I just used a stock photo online for the pictures I posted above, but I figured they were the same. The box picture is identical to the box that I got. I also forgot to mention that I purchased two of them, and both don't work.
-
ugh. Hold off on a reply. I noticed that this thing is poorly designed and when the pins are pushed down in any way, they descend and are possibly not even making contact. Edit: Okay, fixed the pins, and it's still not working. I even tried a p3-s 1133mhz tualatin with no success I did find this and tried different jumper settings with no success.

So I got a socket converter to make the FCPGA-2 (tualatin) processors work in FCPGA motherboards. It has a few different jumper configurations, and I followed the very basic instructions on the box, and set it to run on the Intel chipset for my CUSL2 motherboard (x86-secret beta bios). I put in the Celeron 1.4, turned it on, but got no post, no beep codes, nothing. I'm unwilling to try any of my other tualatins at this point just in case I fried this one, and I don't have a board that will support the tualatin natively. Note, that before I knew any better, I popped in this same tualatin cpu in the board without the adapter. Is it a possibility that I fried it when I did this? Has anybody else used the socket adapter before that may shed some light on what jumpers I should be using in case these instructions are botched?

I seriously appreciate the info guys! -
Another question, would this work on a CUSL2, since they are almost the same motherboard, except for tualatin support?

I don't know how well these guys overclock. I'm on the fence of whether to get the q9650 or the qx9650 for the unlocked multi for this board. If these boards have low fsb walls, I'm thinking I would get a higher overclock with the QX9650 vs the q9650. I know the QX is a C0 stepping, which would limit the overall overclock, but the q would be limited to an overclock anyways if the board has a low fsb wall. Thoughts?

gpu-z wouldn't work on windows 98, so I used rivatuner instead

slngsht - Voodoo3 3000 - 3524 marks 3DMark2000
slngsht replied to slngsht's topic in Result Discussions
yeah, I saw your thread before about this regarding 3dmark01 and the voodoo3 scores all being invalid. So I'm wrong? 3dmark 2000 doesn't run at default either? If not, what's different? -
Ticket ID: 1137 Priority: Low http://hwbot.org/community/submission/1088441_\r\n\r\nturns out there is a difference between the two. 300 is IGP, and 305 is an addon card. Thanks to Christian Ney for pointing this out to me. I\'ll delete the submission as soon as 305 is added.\r\n\r\nThanks!

slngsht - 300 - 1189 marks 3DMark2000
slngsht replied to Christian Ney's topic in Result Discussions
ah ok. need a new section for it then, because all that is available is 300. Thanks for the heads-up. -
What driver did you use for this? I can't get Powerstrip to change any settings on my card.

unlike 3dmark01, 3dmark 2000 can run at default settings.
