Boy, this XP is Shweet!

**Jeronkie** · February 13th, 2003 09:16 AM

Hello there,

My last overclock was a Duron 600 to 1031 by the use of the old trustworthy Fop38.

Finally got my new rig and I just wanted to get an idea of what the new XP1700+ is capable of.

Still running the old Fop38 and keeping the Core V standard, an increase from 1466Mhz to 1766Mhz was no effort at all for that boy. After an hour of Q3: System 33ºC, CPU 36ºC.

Pretty soon I'll get my old H2O setup running again and get into some voltage tuning!

Ah, it's good to be back..

Nice! What stepping is it? If it's a tbred b you should be able to push that thing well over 2ghz.

**K62** · February 13th, 2003 05:21 PM

nice oc, it takes 1.85v to get my xp 1700+ (palo) to 1750mhz

**Justintime** · February 13th, 2003 05:45 PM

nice indeed, my pali 1700+ topped at 1.65Ghz at 1.85V, got it at stock in my media machine @ 1.55v with a silent 80mm fan.

I received a 1700 tbred b about a week ago, I'm just waiting for the RAM to arrive so I can really OC it.

BTW, have you looked at www.overclockers.com lately? 1700b's are averaging 2ghz OCs with a few of them getting 2.4ghz on air.

That's almost a 1ghz air OC.

**Justintime** · February 13th, 2003 06:10 PM

nice!

my 2100+ does 2.24Ghz with 1.78V (Tbred B) and my 2700+ tops at 2.65Ghz on 1.85V, but running at 2480MHz @ 1.75v for quietness sake.

Hi there,

My current settings:
multiplier:12 X FSB:150 = 1800Mhz.

RAM is 266Mhz standard

I'll add some sinks to the ram chips and shoot for 166Mhz FSB.

Still need to start playing with the core V

Cheers then

hmmm is it time to get rid of my 1600+ palo and ole Shuttle board?

I wouldnt mind a new nforce2 board and a 3000+ baron haha but my money is set towards my turbo fund

so i guess the 1600+ will do me fine

im pretty sure my 1600+ will sit close to 2GHz in a different board that has a 1/5th PCI divider

Sucks, cause id see a whole lot more performance running at like 170-200 FSB rather than this crappy 145FSB

**Justintime** · February 15th, 2003 10:22 AM

dunno, doubt you'd get a 600MHz OC from a Palomino, even the 2100+'s don' t hit 2Ghz most of the time, most likely you'd be somewhere around 1550-1700MHz.

**DuronClocker** · February 15th, 2003 11:22 AM

Yeah I'd bet 1875MHz is probably pretty close to your limits. Few got over 1900MHz at all. Mine made it to about 1870 max. Usually ran it at 1850 though... This was all on 1.85v...

Did 1800 on 1.8v, 1750 on 1.75v, 1600 on 1.6v, etc. It was pretty strange in that the voltage pretty much corralated to the GHz speed

**Todd a** · February 15th, 2003 11:30 AM

Heck a lot of the 2100+ don't do 1.8Ghz too well. The new CPUs are doing much better. They are shipping the thuroughbred "B" cores all the way down to 1700+. I was lookking at an 2100+ (AXDA2100DUT3C) at NewEgg ($93), SK-7 ($25), Antec 80mm Tri-light fan ($15, but they are the only ones I've seen with an RPM wire), and an MSI K7N2-L nForce2 board ($95). This comes to $245 shipped. I will likely just up the bus speeds to 166Mhz for 2.1Ghz. It sould do this at stock voltage and run VERY cool and quiet with the SK-7. Later I will get a nice 120GB WD SE drive, another 512MB DDR and a new graphics card (R350 would be nice) and reassemble my old system by this fall (after I get a new case, power supply, and DVD drive). I'm going to be spending about $1000 total this year hopefully. If needed though I could rip apart one of my other systems, but I'd be stuck with a 20GB hard drive and GeForce2 GTS unitll I got the rest together for my main system and I only have a spare stick of 128MB PC-2100 right now.

I have not overclocked this CPU because the system would not run stable. I could never track it down, but the nForce2 boards are much better at only overclocking the CPU/memory. My GeForce4 Ti 4200 is pretty good for now but when Doom3 comes out I might upgrade the video.

Oh, and in case nobody noticed NewEgg is showing the Bartons as in stock. Only the 2800+ barton so far and it is a nice $383, but the 2500+ and 3000+ should follow soon.

Do i know it! got one here that does NOT do any other than default speed, tried all sorts of cooling a few months back when it was the latest, refused to do 1800 @1.7v, 1.75v, 1.8v,1.85v, nothing...but does stock at 1.71v

it runs for a bit at 1800 then chokes either by rebooting, freezing or failing Prime 95, cooling is not an issue as it never broke 50C, so is'nt power as this board and psu works a 2100+ Tbred @ 2.24Ghz, plus the memory was CAS 2 DDR 2700

**Jeronkie** · February 17th, 2003 01:22 AM

Yes it all depends on how lucky you are. My 600 Duron would clock to 140%, but the 650 Duron would barely do 110% of default speed.

Managed to clock my XP 1700 to 2080Mhz at 1.7V.
multiplier:13 X FSB:160

My motherboard does'nt seem to have a 1/5 setting for the PCI bus

with my 266 Mhz RAM OC'ed to 320Mhz there were two factors that made me rather clock the rig down:

1)PCI bus way to fast for my liking (40 Mhz)
2)Could only get my RAM stable @ 320Mhz with the CAS set to 2.5

Due to the fact that I only have 128Mb 266Mhz RAM, I decided to rather clock my FSB to 290Mhz and set the RAM to 2-2-2.

Thus my current settings:
multiplier:12.5 X FSB:145 = 1818Mhz.

Cheers
