3 possibilities to get the Athlon system to a new speed record

There are 3 possibilities to get the Athlonsystem to a new speed record: – You can carefully increase the FSB clock with SOFTFSB / BUSRACING / CPUBOOST and if it’s possible with your mainboard, adapt the Vcore a little. The advantage of this method is that you don’t have to open the case and you don’t need to use the soldering iron. The disadvantage is in the limitation of the CPU rate, because you should only pull up the FSB … Continue reading 3 possibilities to get the Athlon system to a new speed record →

ABIT KR7 and KG7 (RAID, Lite) VCORE MOD

It’s very easy to increase the Vcore of Abit KR7 and KG7 (Lite, Raid) by soldering just one resistor to the right point to allow your CPU much higher frequency. Of course it’s necessary to be very careful if you’re soldering something on your mainboard in order not to kill your board. And of course your warranty void if you solder anything on your mainboard ! Therefore i recommend a good grounding and a soldering station with seperate grounding ! … Continue reading ABIT KR7 and KG7 (RAID, Lite) VCORE MOD →

Calculate the maximum rate for the cache/memory

Calculate the maximum rate for the cache/memory: You can easy estimate the maximum cache speed with these few steps. Look at your cache part and you’ll see some numbers on it like 12345-33 The last two numers will mean that you’ve 3,3ns cache. If there’s a 3-digit number at the end you don’t need to calculate something because it’s already the cache rate in MHz. Calculate the following formula to get the allowed ! values: 1 : 3,3ns * 1000 … Continue reading Calculate the maximum rate for the cache/memory →

ENMIC 8KAX+ & EPOX EP-8K7A VIO & VCORE MOD

Of course, the Vcore of the ENMIC 8KAX+ and the EPOX EP-8K7A mainboard can be increased about +0,4 Volt by the JP 2 Jumpers, but it’s never enough for hardcore overclocker 😉 But the more important option which is missing complete, is the increasement of VIO and VAGP. The VAGP is very useful for any higher graphiccard overclocking and the VIO helps you to reach better FSB overclocking results. Of course it’s necessary to be very careful if you’re soldering … Continue reading ENMIC 8KAX+ & EPOX EP-8K7A VIO & VCORE MOD →

Highest overclocking results with AMD Athlon

Highest overclocking results with Athlon: At this time the Athlon is the best overclockable CPU. But why is it possible to overclock this CPU so easy ? 99% of the Athlon core is much higher than labeled outside, my two first Athlon 500 have 650 cores inside. If you compare the price of the Athlon 500 and 650 Athlon it’s unbelievable what AMD put inside their CPUs. We don’t know the exact reason why AMD gives their customers this joy. … Continue reading Highest overclocking results with AMD Athlon →
