A64 HTT multiplyer, and NF3 250 Chipset

hkp0lice · 04-25-04, 01:36 AM

Ok, I've seen a few boards running 300Mhz or higher on the HTT bus, with the NF3 150 but what multiplyer are they using?? If it's 1x or 2x, then that's pretty useless, right?

What could one expect for max effective speed? IE 4x 200 = 800Mhz, 2x 300= 600Mhz, has anyone done 4x250Mhz = 1GHz?

If you run a nF3 150 at 4x200Mhz, and bench it against a nF3 250 at the same HTT speed, wouldn't it be identical? Cuz that's the only advantage the stock NF3 250 has......

Thanks

Check out the Aopen (the model # has 89 in it, but I can't recall details ATM) review on Anandtech.com. They reached an insanly high FSB but the HT was running very slow.

The "fsb" limit was primarily caused by the lack of PCI lock on the boards. which the AK89MAX has.

Yeah, read that review. I think the HTT multi gets dropped to 1.5x or something to get the OC so high, we're talking 300+.

max has had his shuttle up there at those speeds...

HEY HES NOT THE ONLY ONE!
My k8n pro has been effortlessly pushing 318.33*7.5 for DAYS now....
I could get it higher, but ram isnt good >_<
