Well. I ordered my Tbred A thinking that the 1700+ and 1800+ were the same except default settings. I guess I was wrong. I had hoped to get 166x11 @ 1.50v (default everything but fsb, 25% overclock). No dice. I can post, but Crash if I try to enter bios. 166x10.5 @ 1.50v? Nope. Crash loading windows. 166x10@166? Looks like I got it. Ran half an hour of Prime 95 and it was solid, Going for an overnight burnin now. Frankly, in my opinion, This sucks. 13.64% overclock. Maybe Tbreds eat up voltage... But I wanted to get a nice oc at default not 2ghz at 2+volts. And 13% for a Auiga week 36, looks like **** to me. My 1800+ Agoia week 4 could do 166x10.5 @ default voltage, and ran cooler. Oh well... for 65$ I got 1666 which is what, a 2000+? And its faster because the fsb is 166. I guess I can't complain. I wish I had read all the stuff about 1800+'s first. I would have dropped an extra $10 easy if I could have had [email protected] Just for the fact that all I did was push the fsb up. That was my goal and I didn't attain it. Damnit. Maybe I'll buy another kx7-333 refurb and an 1800+ tbreda (125$ Im guessing) and try again when I have the cash. Being poor sucks.
I'm curious as to what folks with a tbred a (any speed) are getting for max mhz at default voltage. Just to know whether it would be worth my time to up the voltage.
