New Chip Folding

[1g_raider]

I went out today and was looking at cpu's at a local store and found a K-7 1.4 AYHJA (Y) for $135.00 usd. I couldn't pass it up. I put it in the KT7A Raid M/B and moved my 1.0 over to the box I was folding with a Duron 750 on. The 750 is in reserve untill I can afford another case and M/B. I did unlock it tonight. What a pain. I used the R/window defoger repair kit, with a toothpick and a magnifying glass. It shouldnt be too long before I get to test it. I'll be putting that puppy to work for the team also. The setup Mord was talking about is looking kinda' good right now, but I think I'll hold out for an asus or another abit.

The 1.4 is o/c'd to 1576 right now and running rock stable. Another couple of days and I'll push it some more. It is folding a BBAlphaUAHT right now and clicking off frames in around 2:05 per frame. The 1.0 is sitting at 1.0 for now. It is also running a BBAlphaUAHT and clicking out frames in about 2:40 per frame. I have never O/C'd with that M/B but I will be messing around with it soon. I should be able to at least push the multiplier up. It's a Soyo K7VTA. It was my first PGA M/B and I didn't know what I was doing when I got it. It folds O.K. but I won't game with it. Let me know if anyone has any suggestions on the soyo that might help out.

Just thought I would let you guys know I was pushing up production.

Oh Yea ! I can't forget....I'm still running a K6-2 450 @ 520. It ain't fast but it cranks out one a day. :)

Fold on my friends, Fold On.

Fold on my friends, Fold On. I can see some of the reputation for good folding that the Athlon has in your post. I'm sitting here folding a bbalphauaht at 1.7/P4 at 3:20/frame:o

To tell you the truth....I have hated that name from day one but I stuck with it for some reason. Your right though I really should change it. I'll have to think on this one for a while. The folding name would stay though, no way am I going to abandon 3000+ w/u's. :)

Thanks for that tidbit. I always wondered what kind of times a P4 would turn in. Is that with rambus memory? I was, at one point, tossing around the idea of gettin' one to see what it would really do, not what some chart tells me.

Sorry Fireball....I'm going to have to turn you down on your gracious offer. I want to torture this little sucker myself. ;)

I don't think you're any more likely to hit 1 GHz with a 750 chip... some of the earlier 750's are notorious for being dogs. You're better off going for an 800 or above.

My AMCA D700 finally hit 1 GHz after I got the KT7A voltmodded.... and it needed 2.03v! These chips really crave voltage.

I was, at one point, tossing around the idea of gettin' one to see what it would really do, not what some chart tells me. Got her overclocked at 2.0 using a P4 Gorb. Not stable for some games but it is folding a bbalphauaht in 4hr10min/ 2:10 idle and 2:30 when using the internet. Picked up a whole minute going from 1.7 to 2.0.:cool: I think it will improve even more with a better HSF. My temp is 60C/140f so I Know I'm losing some time due to throttling. Now that I know this chip won't burn up I'll just let it run. I'll keep ya'll posted. If you see smoke Please call 911:eek: :eek: :eek: I REGRET THAT I HAVE BUT ONE P4 TO GIVE FOR RESEARCH! Stay tuned. LOL
