overclocking amd 2800 athlon xp

Nice overclock Molks! that must have really pushed the limits. Did u do a mod to ur cpu to unlock the multi? if so can u give me a run down on what to do and whats the safest/best way to do so...my ram is seriously holding back my overclock. It won't pass 198 (398Mhz) so i think i need to mess with the multi...but like most 2800 bartons, mines locked. But great overclock man, i hope i can push my system to those extremes also once i have some descent ram.

 

That was with my mobile (as you know they are unlocked), with water cooling. I dont suggest doing that V core without good cooling. As for a mulitiplier unlocking this can become serious business. There are good sites about, Ive never tried (not a good enough chip) but if your up for some learnin' then by all means. Your chips that are limited by your FSB seem a good crop..

 

I have tried to unlock the multi on my barton and it didn't work, just gave me an error on the post screen saying "cpu unworkable", if ti does work i think it gives you access to the lower multi in the bios setup.... i'll see if i can find the link for you .....found it here you go http://www.lostcircuits.com/cpu/amd_unlock/ have fun

 

Stop guys, lets not take out the motherboard and solder a new link... Tell y'a why, on an Nforce2 motherboard this is aleady done - no need to try this. Instead you have to look at the bridges on the cpu itself.

 

ok dude where is it? it is the old pencil trickª!!!???

 

Ive seen some places before. Dunno now; google it.

 

LET`S GO MOBILE JEJEJEJE
im planinng o`c on a 2500+ m and 2800+ m

 

I have not heard much about the 2800M. I bet a 2500M would out clock it.

 

IVE READ MANY REVIEWS AND the 2500+ m is a monster overclocker fallow by the 2200+ m 2400+ m

 

I have the 2800/333 Mobile. Bought from Newegg. It easily oc's to a 3200/400. So you know that the 2500 will get that, but will it be stable like my 2800M on stock cooling?

CPU Type - AMD Athlon XP-M, 2100 MHz (12.5 x 168) 2800+
Motherboard Name - Abit NF7-S v2.0
Motherboard Chipset - nVIDIA nForce2 Ultra 400
System Memory - 1024 MB (DDR400 SDRAM)_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

CPU Type AMD Athlon XP, 2200 MHz (11 x 200) 3200+
After Over Clocked speed with NF7 board. MantaRaysBios..

 

NEVER ON stock cooling!!

 

@ docxp
realizing that I am a "noob", give me an idea on how to "o.c." my amd 1400, dont realy want to reaplace the proc. but would like more speed. Have never OC'd before and don't know how

 

hello dawg welcome
first we need your syst. specs like memory brand,mobo,cooling fan you are using.
and we start from there

 

Hey everyone. I've been keeping up with this thread for a while and couldn't resist some opinions on how to properly OC my system. I'm nearly clueless but I think this can be very interesting. Here are my specs:

AMD Athlon XP 2900+ / 2.0 GHz
Ultra 1024MB PC3200 DDR 400MHz CL3 Memory (2 x 512MB)
Abit KV7-V Via Socket A ATX Mobo / Audio / AGP 8X/4X / 10/100 Ethernet LAN / USB 2.0 / Serial ATA

I'll get back to you on fan but i bought it seperately to fit the mobo+cpu needs

All my BIOS set ups are on default.

 

Also VID CARD: 128 MB NVIDIA GeForce Ti 4200 [agp8x]

 

Yes, stock cooling!

 

hey doc
sorry for the tardiness, but am on a two shift dignal, can't get the info you want without opening the case, but remember that you run the "run" on XP and enter a command and it gives you all the info. Do you remember which it is?

 

^----- its dxdiag by the way.. if thats da one u mean

 

The mobile barton is the same chip as the 3200. Its just a better core, which is why a) you can underclock it on next to no volts and still run it b) why it will more successfully overclock. Running at the same speed and voltage as a 3200, it will perform and heat up the same.
