I recently bought a new system (Gigabyte GA7DXR 266 with GF2 PRO and a AMD1200 - 266. I tried a number of tests and spent a lot of money on trying to cool the new beast- and it is a beast, with benchmarks outperforming the P41.9 ans 2Gig.

Finaly I settled for H2O. I now run it at 1.496 stable and 1.92v. Tems are 30 celcius at Idle and 37 celcius at full load depending on ambient. It even leaked plain tap water on the GF2 and board and it works fine - no shorts, so so much for the distiled water theory!

One thing i noticed is that the processor cant take a higher multiplier than 11 (11X 136).

I tried it with three radiators (copper and aluminium / flowthrough and split) and two copper blocks - engeneered curtosy of MR. Pop Snr. - my dad. the pump is an Italian water feature design not submersable that pushes 800 lph.

At first i had the system in the box but then designed a separate aluminium case under the box to house the whole thing. The system is activated on / of through relays and the 120mm fan is a 220v and darn powerfull.

I spent US$ 2500 on this experiment and i very impressed. especialy with the GF2Pro that can almost match the std ULTRA when overclocked.:D:D

Can't you get that AXIA higher with those temp's?

I would think so, we will wait in anticipation.

I was having the same problem with my 1.2 axia " y" epox board, I went back to air mc462 and now Im at 1520mhz 138x11.0 "go figure??"

Yeah, I would think that chip would hum a little better song.
(What?) Nice Chip!!

ummm.. from messing around with my new axia-y 1.2ghz, i've found that it's voltage more than temperature that makes the difference. my 8kha can only give 1.85v, and i know that that is the limiting factor, not the temp.

Im at 1507, and maybe 1533. My PSU is the only limit now. I unpluged my monitir and it alowed me to increase my MHz.

NOTE: I had to reduce my AGP card to std to reduce the power it absorbed.


Once the Temp problem is fixed it seems like voltage is the next....

Wow, I haven't even thought about that! Recently I have gotten lockups and reboot's when my MX is Oc'ed. Hmm, I really need a PSU more :)

Nice of you to metion it!

I also have to lower my AGP to 2x to get 1.61ghz. I don't think it is the P/S for me, just a bottleneck at the AGP bus.

I tried that, but it didden't really help. But thanks for the input :)
