In my testing (at least on the Aladdin board), there was no gain in enabling external cache for pifast.

Higher Mem/FSB frequency helped more.

I was actually booting at 810MHz, but the board got wet. I will try to improve my score soon.

It posted at the maximum of 840, too :)

Im really looking forward to this. Seems like you can take Socket 7 to a new level. 810Mhz booting is really extreme and I guess you can run all benchmarks at this frequency. I see sub 3min superpi 1m and sub 7min pifast incoming. :D

It's no guarantee I can finish it. One of my boards (the good one) is buggy on cold, the other one did not do 140MHz FSB last time I tried.

Will mod it and see if it can go higher, but might have to settle at 780MHz again, like the previous time.

Although that 780MHz was pretty stable in the long 32M run, so I guess if the board allows me, I can probably complete benchmarks at 810, why not at the maximum of 840...

 

Btw, what is the theoretical maximum of the boards with VIA chipset?

FSB wise? I think no one was beyond 133Mhz with MVP3 yet. Making 800Mhz max possible. Aopen AX59 has already problems with 124Mhz and cant run this in any benchmark but my Epox can run 124Mhz with Cache enabled which is absolutely crazy in terms of speed. A good aladdin board is probably the way to go.
