what cpu

[louis]

just got an abit nf7-s want to get a new cpu to go with it what one do you guys think for overclocking

[Hutchy]

the barton 2500xp is supposed to reach 3200 xp apparently ?

[silent]

it does indeed, if you get the unlocked one. i just ordered an oem from ebuyer and runs at 11.5 x 200 no probs, which is slightly higher than stock 3200

[[GSV]Trig]

And before you ask they started lockin the chips at about week 46/47

[royce]

take the board back, get a Abit IC7 Max3 and get a P4 2.4ghz, clock that sucker, and live your life like a rich porn star lol

^ has too much money

Get that 2500 and raise the FSB to 200 and enjoy the speed

[serlex]

hi, i got 2600+ b

im going to get that board nf7-s
what do you think i can overclock 2 with normal colling (2 case fans and amd coolermaster fan)
thx

[Kezzer]

with PC2700 you can't go any further than 333MHz FSB

[serlex]

sorry im new to oc

what do you mean 333fsb,
i wanted know the clock speed when overclock (2... ghz)

at the moment my athlon runs at 2.13ghz (not OC)
i want to know if it will go up with that nf7-s board,
cheers

In your sig it says you have PC2700, the max theoretical speed of this RAM is 333MHz (something like 2.7Gb/sec transfer rate?) So you won't be able to get your FSB up which is what overclocking is really. You could increase the multiplier but it won't increase your performance.

ok
cheers m8, i m still learning

With an NF7-S v2.0 you can. I have the XP1700+ and PC2100. The 1700+ is at 2.2GHz (200*11) and the ram runs at standard speed.

increasing cpu clock either way will make it faster. acctually fsb doesnt do much, gives only a few % more to my 3dm2k1 score...
also if you look @ my sig, (most) pc2700 ram is capable of pc3200 (with memsinks, and voltage upped a bit) while mine is capable of pc3500

Kezzer your 3dm2k1 score seems about 1k too low for a 9800p/2.2ghz athlon :O

silent, my mobo 6382 is crap, no overclocking options at all

is there any other way of OC
