the bigger problem will be that some older boards which use edo ram don't display a memory clock in the cpu-z memory tab/verfication. ;)

 

edo ram are not the problem btw. i have tons here, but i don't have fb-dimms :D

All EDO boards, or just some?

 

Maybe Just Sub 10Person Join This Challenge :D

Men It's Too Hard Why Set This For July :)

 

I Don't Know EDO DRAM, RDRAM and FB-DIMM DRAM What's That Moudle???? :D

 

EDO was before SDRam. RDRam was used by Intel before DDR got upto speed. FB-Dimm was used in some server boards (skulltrail as well).

 

Not all challenges are to get loads of people involved. Sometimes it's just something special ;)

Is it overclockable?

 

Mainboards in those days were either not overclockable or hardly overclockable.

 

My sticks are 72-pin memory sticks: I doubt they can beat EDO DIMMs (and wheren't those clocked at 66MHz? or is my memory failing me?)

 

Anyway, overclocking was indeed possible on 486 and pentium-era boards. It just wasn't as easy as it is nowadays.

Even if it doesn't, it's easy to figure out. The only chipsets that can change the divider are VIA and ALI.

 

I have contacted with Franck Delattre (Massman, you know this) but I can't say how fast will he implement required fixes.

it can be chanced on intel chipset boards as well. :)

I don't know anyone who else can :)

I just said that I don't know how fast will he make the fixes after they are reported on. I've seen the asynch. memory issues on VIA and Intel chipsets. I know how to identify the memory divider on these.

I'll share with him with this info today.
