Do I spy an nf3 250gb in the center?

 

[jaymz9350]

Yep, I've collected a few 754 chips in bulk buys so I needed a board. Been looking for one for a while but finding one reasonably priced when I had the cash took a while lol. I wanted it because it's one boars know for sure to run turion's

 

[cdawall]

Yea I have one in storage that I can't find. I have run turions on mine without issue.

 

[Mr.Scott]

FWIW, the good Abit 754 boards will also run the Turion's, not the Newark's though.

I found my dfi board so I am installing windows then thay will be frozen

You will be busy. 99.9% of 939 and 754 are cold bugged.

CB and/or CBB. You will get them both.

 

[Blaylock]

FWIW my 940 stuff bugged at -26c. Not sure about 939 though.

 

[cdawall]

Yep I have been getting my *** kicked with the NF3 board. Installing XP (hopefully having stupid issue after stupid issue with that as well) on my NF4 board and hoping for the best.

 

[cdawall]

Just a couple pics

 

[Mr.Scott]

Nice. FX51. What board is that in?

 

[funsoul]

Gettin' me itchy to dust off the old stuff. Bummer but great info on the 939's Mr. Scott...thanks!

cdawall- love that top pic! Volcano!!! hehehe

I keep hitting the cold bug on this stupid chip. 305htt and - 7c seems to be it's spot and it doesn't want to run warmer stupid sempron

Asus SK8V, but it's having post issues I'll play with it more later.

 

[funsoul]

-7? Takes real pouring talent to run that one.

 

[Mr.Scott]

You'll find that most will bug in the 0 to -20 range. A single stage or a good chiller is fine for 754 and 939 in most cases. They do scale with more cold, it just depends on how much you want to work for a super result. They are a super PITA to bench real cold.

 

[funsoul]

Yeah...the few 939's I benched were all under ss. No wonder I had so many that wouldn't run at all with the single stage.

It was quite a bit of efforting. Didn't matter I couldn't take the gold

 

[Dr. McCoy]

There he is...

I've ran into the same thing before with mine and I've yet to find one that likes the cold, all so far have bugged out on me too.
I don't recall having any to stop at -7c, mine so far have stopped around the same temp range of -26 to -37c.

I never have good luck. I only ran two chips, one was a junk 3400+ Palermo that hates everything and the other a delidded 3000+ Newcastle. The Newcastle broke 3ghz however.
