martinus said:well, I've done the mod today, twice actually. First I did my Asus slotkey. I opened the socket and took out AN3, AJ3, AK4. No connection between AK4 and AK26! Voltage selection is handled by jumpers on the slotkey (vid pins). Runs like a charm in my AOpen AX6BC Pro - whereas the powerlep adaptor seems to be incompatible.
I got to 133 FSB at 1.5V, but my Matrox G400 starts crapping out at that speed, so 129 is the highest stable FSB at the moment. The cpu is obviosly capable of so much more!
Next I modded my trusty Asus CUBX system, which I know to do 150 FSB stable. Same method. Unfortunately I miscounted and took out a Vcc pin. Annoying, but there are enough left, so no worries.
The celery 1000A did not want to run in the CUBX. I then proceeded to connect CMOS PWRGOOD with VTT PWRGOOD, using wrapping wire. I don't know, maybe it was too ghetto, or maybe it just doesn't want to play. No go.
Anyway, I'll have to get a new video card and try to get the AOpen board higher...
It would seem that many can get the slockets to work if they are not generic but when you do not connect ak4 to ak26 your performence and OC'ability takes a hit. If i remeber correctly earlier in this thread someone could only hit 133fsb and queue depth of 1. This was before they connected ak4 to ak26. Once they did this it OC'd much better and they could take it to queue depth of 4 or 8 not sure which. Anyway their mem scores were just like they should be on a BX board.
