October 28, 20213 yr I have TUSL or CUSL or 20 other boards but no VMod on them. This is only pre-test. No I will jump on Celerons and Coppermines where no FSB limit.
October 28, 20213 yr Use to have the same kind of setup with a stupidly thin piece of plywood, gonna look if I can find a picture!
October 28, 20213 yr Crew 18 hours ago, old_retro_hw said: its absolut max ? chipset fsb limit Sure? This would be quite a bad one, tried different GPU or Sata Adapter for HDD?
October 28, 20213 yr I tried several RAMs (4:3:1) and VGAs with same results. Almost all CPUs ended +/- 210 fsb.
October 28, 20213 yr Hdd might be the limit. For example long ide cable can be limiting your setup. So sata adapter connected directly to motheboard can be the point. You can apply VNB mod and see if its not a bottleneck.
October 28, 20213 yr Now Iam editing YT video about this setup. Thanks to all for tips, yeah HDD can be changed too. Next session is Cel-Tul with FSB 100 = cant get limit on chipset/HDD :-) Will get other limits I guess. I can return to P3EB anytime, winter is long :-)
October 29, 20213 yr I remember doing something like cut an ide cable to look like this:Â And then your signal integrity might be better, so higher frequency on ide. 80wire cable is better than 40wire, because it has some signal shielded. Edited October 29, 20213 yr by ludek

In order of priority, I would blame RAM (if 1:1), CPU, AGP, IDE (with adaptor), clockgen and then NB itself. Most limits can be checked with 2:3 (IDE/AGP), 4:3 (CPU) and 133:133 (RAM) straps.
October 30, 20213 yr Nice score and very good job! I am a fan of your collection on youtube, I am like you for Belgium ^^ However not yet attacking socket 370 but it will happen soon I have everything I need to wait for my Cascade to arrive, for the moment my SS is too small. Well done again, I will try on TUSL2-C and also try my hand at vmod.
October 31, 20213 yr Thanks. Now I have few kinds of SATA adapters on the way so will try different HDDs SATA or SSD if ST6 will like them. Also I found some short cables, SATA too from 3cm to 10cm, they came from some tiny PC systems.
