Update!

Since most of this was confusing and jibberish, I'll cut down to the strait REAL BS. After weeks of people harasing, no names but you get the picture, here is a screen shot I wipped up in 10min late last night. The new WCPUID 3.0c finally reconizes my CPU correctly.

I will run some quake3 benches later on with screenshots @ 2048x1536x32.

Whoa! Nice system you got there, AtomicGuY!

Did I understand correctly, you're using Dragon ORB?

AtomicGuY
06-20-01, 02:01 AM
Yes, the dragonorb is the screamer that keeps my cpu from frying lol. I highly highly highly recommend the dragonorb to anyone. THE only drawback is $. Its like $60US or $90CAN. :( ohwell, its worth it and I dont need to take the risk of water cooling.

this is the picture of the dragonorb if your not keepin up with the latest coolers.

I've seen a few reviews of that DORB, but they weren't good reviews, just some small tests. It actually seems to perform somewhat acceptably... *must bash orbs* Your load temps are HIGH! LOL

$60! Expensive, a Millennium Glaciator kicks its butt at $45, I bet.

Oh well, a good ORB, that's something I wasn't even expecting.

You can actually find a review of the DORB right here at oc.com. http://www.overclockers.com/articles427/ it did pretty well. Although I could never bring myself to buy one, but if you are an orby this seems like a good choice.

Btw nice oc!

Hadn't noticed that. Thanks!
Seems to perform like a highend orb, not like a highend HSF. For orb-fans, definitely.

My system specs:
-Abit KG7-RAID
-AMD Athlon T-bird 1.4GHz @ 1.84GHz (320MHz Bus!)
-2GB PC2400 DDR-Ram @ CL2


Ok either you have some amazing connections or you are bsing us, cause first off the KG7 isn't available yet and you are using 512mb pc2400 ram which I also am pretty sure is not available yet, or at least no one on pricewatch has heard of it..

When removing the panel on the case which has 9 80mm fans attached to it LOL, the temp rose to a max of 33c idle /66 load. Horrible, it cooks in its own heat without those case fans which I say, dont run your CPU above 1700MHz unless you have at least 2 or more fans blowing directly from the case panel to the CPU on an input draft.

Also as the KG7-R, Im using the final beta rev3 of the board which I recieved over a month ago. A friend of mine works at EA and his company got to test a few Abit KG7 boards. Sorry to pop da bubble bro.

06-20-01, 10:05 AM
Also, I will like to say that I have a 1GHz T-bird AXIA running 1666MHz!!! Anyone who has an AXIA t-bird will be in for a 1.4GHz or higher treat. I got mine to run 1666MHz running 1.95V/3.6V.

well I would like to see some pictures of a case with 18fans! Nice overclock! I only thought that could be done with a vaporchill! hell for the money he spent I think that is what he should have done in teh first place!

And if you have all high end stuff why would you get a DORB was that a freebie too!

Theres one little problem. The KG7 has 4 ram slots. Only 2 of which will run unregistered ram! The other 2 slots have to have registered ram in them to work! PC2400 is not registered ram! In order to run all 4 memory slots you have to have registered ram in all 4 memory slots!

HELP My multiplier is locked at 14 why ??? help
first thing cool sys ,i wish it was me
i have a few questions
Is my multiplier supposed to be locked at 14 i can adjust it in the bios but still says 14 when booting.
what temp is cpu supposed to be.At idol about 31,fullload 48,If it goes much higher is crashes is it the temp or not?
what is burning in your cpu all about?
i can get to 1540 but not stable,thats 14*110
i should be able to get to 1.6 ghz

My system specs:
-Abit KG7-RAID
-AMD Athlon T-bird 1.4GHz .But guaranteed to 1.6ghz+ lol
-thermalright sk6 heatsink,YS-TECH FD6025 60mm fan
-corsair 256 pc150 cas-2
-ibm 60gxp 61.5gb udma100
-creative soundblaster live! platinum 5.1
-coolercase "tornado" (macron 300w psu)

I have just two things to say. First off the KG7 is definatly a kick-ass bord, secondly some of you people have way too much time if you noticed all of that.

Nagorak
06-21-01, 06:50 PM
If you are really running at 1.84 GHz with a Dragon Orb cooler then you must be totally INSANE. The Dragon ORB is NOT a good cooler. It's a DECENT cooler. I would not even consider running with a Dragon Orb on my 1.4 GHz. At 1.84 GHz you are going to FRY that chip.

Why would you mod your case and add tons of fans and then use a sub-standard cooler? That's like designing a car with driver and passenger side airbags, tank armor and springs on the outside to absorb shocks from a crash, but then not bothering to include any seatbelts.

Actually the reason I noticed it is because I was read the article on the home page of Overclockers.com. I was thinking about buying that board and they had an article about the DDR memory. I didn't look it up after I saw this thread. I already knew from the article! I try to do some research before I buy new hardware. Want to make sure I'm gonna be happy with what I'm getting!

ferg the reason people pointed all this out is not that we go and look stuff up to prove someone wrong, its just this guy made stuff so blatantly obvious we couldnt help but notice. i myself would have noticed the problem w/ the ram as well as the code or whatever its called not being a 4, but being a 2 instead. thats from reading 2 articles. it also smelled fishy w/ his im all bad post your stats so i can feel like my system is even better attitude. oh well.

He's got 2gigs of memory on the KG7? I didn't think that registered memory could be overclocked that well. Correct me if I'm wrong but I have never seen DDR mem higher then 512megs yet so his memory HAS to be registered to make 2gigs worth.

I finally did it, 1.84GHz from my 1.4GHz chip. It took me near 80 hours of case moding and 9 hours of fooling around to get my rig to work. And the best part about the whole design is that I use AIR cooling only. To my knowledge, I should have one of the fastest computers for the home of all time.

My system specs:
-Abit KG7-RAID
-AMD Athlon T-bird 1.4GHz @ 1.84GHz (320MHz Bus!)
-2GB PC2400 DDR-Ram @ CL2
-2X 60GB 7200rpm Maxtor Hard Drives in RAID 0 and 4 80GB External firewire hard drives. = 440GB Total Hard Drive Space
-SBLive! Plantinum 5.1+ Sound
-24" View Sonic Professional Series CRT Monitor.
-Hercules Prophet III @ 250C/530M.
-24" Full ATX with 1Kilo watt Power Supply (1050Watts), and 18!!! 80mm case fans to keep the CPU cool.

And I have to tell you that the DRAGON ORB!!! will be the best $90 CAN dollers you could spend on a cooler. Its simply amazing!

1.840GHz (320MHz BUS) 11.5x160
2.00Volts KG7 Mod
32c idle / 55c full load running FLASK oced by AMDzone.

p.s
-For the record, I got another problem to deal with, NOISE! My case currently sounds like someone running a 12amp vacuum. But seeing over 1.8GHz of AMD realizism is worth it.

Dare to compare, I need to hear from you. Send your O/Cing results.

You are full of crap Athomic bull****! :)
Like Fiz said, WCPUID stepping ID should be 4/4 not 2/2 for T-Bird 1.4 (or any AYHJA). LOL.... oh and also WCPUID clock speed doesn't add up. 160.05 x 11.5 = 1840.57 not 1840.50!!! heheh (maybe 1840.58 but definately not 1840.50. rofl.

AND Dragon ORB is CRAPPP, if its Dragon Orb III with copper it's best out of all the dodgy ORB coolers, but still far behind Swiftech MC462 or even Thermalright SK6. Latest Vapochill only puts out 1820 @ -9C. http://www.vapochill.com/performance/index.shtml?id=18

1840 with crap Dragon Orb, (AXIA 1.4G not AYHJA) LOL, good one.



he probably has Pentium II 400. :)

kiwi128
06-23-01, 03:59 PM
yeah, this guy must be bs everybody

i have an "y" 1.4 and the stepping's 4 (see pic)

to amd boy: you fool, wcpu id multipliers x fsb (even half mult. x effective fsb) NEVER add up to the mhz wcpuid will tell you, you should have checked that first, before saying that

this is (i suppose) because the fsb and the mhz get detected differently (=different program routine) and not at the same time

but i agree with most of you that 2gb ddr will NEVER run at 160mhz (at least the ones available now), modules greater than 256mb always have been bad overclockers due to signal strength problems, etc.

also i've never seen a 24" full atx case with a 1050w psu, but maybe that exists....

AND if you guys would do a little math (or use radiate), you'd find out that a tb@1.84@2v would put out ~150W of heat, the c/w of the dragon orb (as measured by overclockers.com) is 0,23-0,27, so even with 0,23 (which is doubtful, i'd go with 0,25-0,27) it'd be 34,5°c above case temp, so the case (into which he wants us to believe he somehow managed to install 18 fans) would have to be kept below 15°c, and then, still it'd be on the edge.....THIS SUCKS!

i have a week 21 1,4 "Y" tb currently @ 1503 (see pic), mostly because i just got it yesterday and i'm having my final exam in school on thursday, so no time

which leads to my question:

do any of you guys have any idea why i can't oc higher than 1503~1533 (11,5x133), even though i keep my case at 23° and have a swiftech 462a (juding from c/w it should be able to cool the cpu up to ~1,7) using AS2 and an enermax 431w? i don't get it, but as i said i didn't have any time to play with it yet

any suggestions would be very welcomed! but please email them (soundbastlerlive@gmx.at) if possible!

thanx, cya all

dude, that is pretty sweet. . .my 1 ghz(266) is running at 1442, i cant go any higher, but not because of heat :( . . .(load temp. is bout 44c w/me vantec). dont know what the prob is. . . check out my post in cooling

06-23-01, 09:44 PM
Kiwi64, like everyone said we all know 1.4G are AYHJA (stepping ID 4), maybe except AtomicGay... and LOL 1.4G@1.5G is a fuking joke, i can run my 1.33G AYHJA "Y" @ 1.6G+ no probelm as long as room temp is cool.

I bet you couldn't finish high skool with your math, Kiwi.. DOH!
according to the first screen shot, System Clock, 160.05, multiplier 11.5 was detected by WCPUID, and if you do a simple math 160.05 x 11.5 = 1840.575 (which should be the Internal Clock and L2 Speed), to get 1840.05, the FSB should be around 160.00 not 160.05. just doesn't add up.
Maybe once u compelete year 11 math, you might be able to understand, Moron.

18 8cm fans ??? lol, but even if u had 50 of these crap fans it's won't be possible to run cpu @ -6C like Vaphchill, which is what you need to run 1800+. rolf, oh well at least Voodoo2 is a mad card (LOL) and should rock with his 1800.... i mean 1200..

I'm not knockin anyones "system", just your statement that AXIA owners are in for an overclocking treat. I've got the infamous 1.33ghz AXIA y code, and it can't oc for $&@!, can't boot win2k if its over 1460mhz, yet temps never go above 38C under load (its watercooled)!!! Won't even post above 1540, it isn't a peripheral problem, or a ps problem(enermax 430), or an FSB prob(had it at 146X10), what gives?

PS: i basically have the same probs as the last 2 or 3 guys that posted, i ain't bs either!

AtomicGuY
06-23-01, 11:52 PM
First off, BSing?????

What do you mean??
yes I know the MHz to the FSB doesnt add up, its a FLAW in WCPUID. You can get your CPU to 1.84GHz, you will know!

Second, diss the dragonorb3 all you want but I know for a fact that it keeps my 1.84GHz Athlon cool.

LAST, yes I know its a 2 2 stepping, my version of the 1.4GHz Athlon was like the first batch to hit the market and for some reason, I didnt have 4 4 stepping, I thought I was being cheated but after a comp tech checked into it, it was a true 1.4GHz :)

Finally, AXIA cores are very good at overclocking, between me and several friends, we hit 1.33GHz at the lowest, and 1.67GHz at the highest. And 1.33GHz without touching the voltage:)

Simple, 512MB Micron DDR X 4. Second, its basically bs about the ram being pc2400, its really PC2100 but the store I bought the ram from Certifies the ram for PC2400 specs. Thats why I call it PC2400.

ANYWAY, I have been doin losts of messing with the motherboard and found that the operating system bottles out at 1GB. So I can only use 1GB of ram effectively. Ohwell, XP is coming anyway. as for registered dimms, all my dimms are registered, and what is that guy talking about?????

All 4 dimms on my KG7 are registered, and I suspect that the official released boards will be the same and if not better! I dont know what some people on this board smoke, but I gatta admit, it must be good stuff.

Hey, that is a nice overclock if its real. I am not the judge of that, I just wanted to say that all these arguments could easily be stopped if only u ( AtomicGuY ) would show some kind of pictures or 3D Mark 2001 benchmarks. Anyway I am pretty happy with my athlon 1.33 AXIA K chip, oh one other thing, are the 1.4s the only one with the 4/4 stepping ?

Hi Atomic,

you've got a really impressive setup over there! I would love to get the whole story on the OC (...oced by AMD zone). Like some other members already asked, we would also LOVE some pictures of your system. I guess you must have a digital camera somewhere or able to get one, maybe I can get you some pics of my watercooled system. Also I'm very curious about the powersupply and your fans. Hope to see some pics soon, greetings,

06-24-01, 01:34 PM
I'd be quite inclined to belive the air cooling overclock of Atomic but there is something in his specs that im finding hard to believe.

He claims he has his Hercules Prophet III GF3 running at 250/530. That is BS!

I have the same card and cannot get anything about 220Mhz core w/o crashing and the memory doesn't get over 505Mhz without artifacting.

There is no way he can get to 530Mhz w/o SERIOUS artifacting. And w/o an A5 core and a frickin' socket7 adapted hsf on the core 250Mhz is waaaaay impossible.

If i had a full time job, i'd buy a nice water cooling rig but im skint :)

I can't beleive how long people took to catch on to this being a joke, and even when others had said it was a joke they still didn't click on (probabally didin't read the whole thread)
There is so much there that gives it away, the kg7 for a start, then the 320mhz ddr ram, seeing as the fastest most people get their ddr ram to is about 290mhz then...
The dragon orb and power supply are just what topped it off though.

to amd boy:

i dunno why you think you have to insult my without any reason, though i don't really care anyways, but:

please show me a few wcpuid screenshots where the multiplier times the fsb is the mhz displayed next to it......i just have never seen a single one

and to your problem with my oc: i just haven't had the time to play with it yet, because education here in austria (and in fact nearly everywhere outside the USA, where i suppose you're from) is about 100 times better than the stupid free education you get in the usa

i have been to petaluma, CA for 3 weeks in a high school, and the level is so low, you guys learn two things: you need money for any education that can call itself so and american history...what you are doing in math is a joke and it seemed a lot of the pupils had real problems with it, people that failed in math here were praised by the teachers and could do anything

so get a life and don't be fooled by the american government, you know they give you no education so they control you (i know this already going off topic)

it seems that all you ever learned is to call people "gay" and other things...sad...really

you can't even drink the water in the us, it's full of chlorine and other chemicals and america thinks they rule the world and do not give a F**KING S**T about nature (kyoto), ressources and anything else....the only thing that matters is: the american economics....bah...gotta stop now before i'm getting totally sick

p.s.: your president doesn't even know english grammar, but i wouldn't care if he had more serious concerns and would say other things than "high energy use is part of the american dream, we're not gonna stop it. we have to increase supply rather than decreasing the demand."...can you believe that someone like that is the "mightiest man in the world"? i can't and will never...the american households i saw in CA wasted energy everywhere, they have 5 computers, tvs, etc., running 24/7 for nothing, oh yeah, screen-saving.....i didn't even see a single engery-saving light-bulb (do you guys even have that over there?)

ok enough of it finally, just think about it BEFORE you write a reply-flame

ANYWAY, I have been doin losts of messing with the motherboard and found that the operating system bottles out at 1GB. So I can only use 1GB of ram effectively. Ohwell, XP is coming anyway. as for registered dimms, all my dimms are registered, and what is that guy talking about?????

All 4 dimms on my KG7 are registered, and I suspect that the official released boards will be the same and if not better! I dont know what some people on this board smoke, but I gatta admit, it must be good stuff.

Well then thats what I'm talking about. You just answered the problem I mentioned. It's really PC2100 and it's registered ram! When you called it PC2400 that's what thru me off! Cause genuine PC 2400 DDR is not registered ram there for you would not have been able to run all 4 ram slots, Only 2 of them. I have read a bit on that board. Did you read the article about the KG7 on the OC.com home page? If you did you would now what I'm talking about. The board will only run all 4 ram slots if the ram is registered ram! If you don't have registered ram you can only use 2 of the ram slots! So that's what I'm talking about!

Wega!

My Prophet3 can reach 252 / 531 at max without any artifacts. remember thou that every card is different and your card will vary. 220MHz only??? Man, thats gatta be defective or somtin. My friends Winfast hits 239MHz and thats a bad card. Anyway, did you use the latest official drivers from Nvidia, running 3.4V on you Mother board and using an External overclocking utility. That utility "coolbits" that's part of Nvidia's drivers aint any good.

I got two of them racked together which gives me about 1050watts reading with my scope.

I'm working on getting a digital camera, still got analog technology :(

But as for my fans on my main case panel, there are 9 of them suckers and they look like this
----------
| 0 0 0 |
| 0 0 0 |
| 0 0 0 |
But ya, I drilled 4 holes for each fan to mount the screws, a simple but LONG process that anyone can do if they know how to operate a jigsaw. one note, I had to completly cut the main support beam out to make room for the fans, the one that is just above the middle of the case and goes from the back to the front.

As of yesterday, I decided that I am gonna up the size of the tower to a 50" RACK size Duel ATX server system. I was looking around and seen one for a nice $400CAN bareboned without the PSU. I will of course just throw my two psu's in there and so forth.

Guys
Have a search around the forums @ overclockers.co.uk there are stories of axiar-k(the super r type)hitting 1.78gig with air cooling so i don't think 1.8gig is out of the question.

please do not insult whole groups of people when replying in a flaming manner to a single person. i will refrain myself from jumping in on this, but i dont like to get drawn into arguments i have no part in besides someone using large generalizations. and 'go home' didn't mean to go back your place of living, it meant to stop lying and either get serious or stop cluttering the forum with your self-righteous i am better than you because i can't make up a fake believable story trash.

I am not for a moment saying its true or its not true, but guys open your minds, what if this is for real you have already made up your minds its crap so what can you learn?? absolutely nothing, if it is for real heck I wouldn't mind finding out how to get those numbers, how about being non biased and ask questions for growth not flamming, besides it is not in the spirit of the forum to hassle people like this the attitute of the forum is growth and helping, please consider your replies a little more carefully.

i consider it bull. i mean he's using a second rate hsf and parts that are outlandish at best. mobo not released etc. he cannot provide us a pic of his rig. he does that, and maybe take a pic of it at bootup showing the mhz and ill believe him. i would have an easier time believing it if he werent being so self centered in the way he is presenting it. it might be true, but i need real proof to believe it.

He claims he has his Hercules Prophet III GF3 running at 250/530. That is BS!

I have the same card and cannot get anything about 220Mhz core w/o crashing and the memory doesn't get over 505Mhz without artifacting.

There is no way he can get to 530Mhz w/o SERIOUS artifacting. And w/o an A5 core and a frickin' socket7 adapted hsf on the core 250Mhz is waaaaay impossible.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Well in defense of that remark (not the system but the VC) my GeFrorce 2 Pro 64mb DDR is currently running at 350/465, and has ran at 365/470 but with artifacts, the 350/465 looks fine in 32 bit color, and 1204x1024 res. It has been proven with pics and 3dmarks shots as well as FPS , and pics of my settings before and oafter the overclock. Card is not moddeed at all - just a 120 in the lower front and a 90mm in the lower back air blowing difectly across the acards- just ask around it was proved
