From what I've read the multipliers are unlocked to 12.5.. If you want higher you have to "cut" one of the L1's..
I just bought a 1700b and this weekend I'll be putting it in an 8k3a+.. I can't wait to see the results.. It might be a more stable, less fickled set up that this one..

I don't need the upper's anyway.. More fsb is better. I usually run my rigs at 12.5 and lower on the multipliers and up on the fsb..

yeach tahts right but by 256mb Elixir DDR 6ns Memory does not working with agresive timmings on Big FSB. Look DLT3C 09 working on 2.5Ghz so i can put max on 2,5/2/5/2/1T 190mhz FSB synchro quz memory doesnt want more

than 12,5x190 =2375mhz It's good but CPU can more... I need more multipillers I thinking I'll cut Bridges with electric trick

I have the same mobo as you, with an XP2100+, it's the rig in my sig.

Have you tryed either more volt on the ram or tryed relaxing the settings?

With my Corsair XMS-27100 I have 2.8 volts going through it with Turbo timmings.With active cooling on it.

Or like OnDborder said cut the bridge.

We take NO responsability for any wrong doing if the comp goes nighty night.!!!

Good luck!!

for me its normaly put 2.8V for DDR memorys

. After I had 128mb DDR Seitec PC2100 and they worked 1,5 year on 2.8V on 8KHA+ and 8K7A .Now I have 2.8V on memory too. Near I'll have TwinMOS PC3200 on 5.0ns M-tec memorys for test at www.ocmaster.com

"12,5x190 =2375mhz " hmm, that's 900 mhz over what the default is for that chip..

So do you have active cooling on your nb?
And what are you using to cool the cpu?

NB cooled by Volcano II and CPU is Watercooled. But now on D600@912 and 152/190mhz async for memorys @2,5/2/2/5/2/1T with 2.8V on stock cooler at NB

Hi there, you might want to "search" for this topic. There seems to be an issue with the temp sensor read of the tbreds on the 8k3a's..

Dont worry about your temps on the 8K3A wOOt. The sensors are way out of whack. Mine was reading 90c at idle and 100+ under load, both in bios and MBM..

how max from 8k3a?
