DFI K6BV3+/66 Rev B+

Post by Mickey »

Hello all!!!<br>This is my first post here, so don't scream on me <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :) --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/im ... /smile.gif ALT=":)"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br>I have a DFI K6BV3 /66 Rev B mainboard and I try overclock my K6-2 500MHz to 600MHz but this mainbard haven't got 6.0 multiplier, but I saw that Mr Toastz overclocked an 550@619.<br>Please tell me how to do that.<br>How change frequency above 100MHz, or change multiplier??? <p></p><i>Edited by: <A HREF=http://pub70.ezboard.com/bk6plus67153.s ... >Mickey</A> at: 5/25/02 4:18:31 am<br></i>

You can use the 2x multiplier, the K62 remaps this to 6x. Good luck getting that K62 to 600MHz, you'll need it! Mr Toast's overclocked CPU that you mentioned is a K6-3+ 550, not a K62. K62s are notoriously poor overclockers, but K6-2+ and K6-3+ CPUs overclock reasonably well for their clockspeed. <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :) --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/im ... /smile.gif ALT=":)"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <p>-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-<br>Athlon Thunderbird 1GHz@1.35GHz (9x150)<br>Iwill KK266<br>256MB Crucial PC133 CAS2 5-2-2<br>Gainward GeForce3 Ti200 4ns 234/530<br>Gateway EV910 19" monitor (1600x1200 .26mm)<br>Seagate Barracuda IV 40GB 7200rpm<br>Lite-On 24/10/40 CD-RW <b>|</b> Asus 40x CD-ROM <b>|</b> Toshiba 16x DVD-ROM<br>Windows XP Professional</p><i></i>

Also, you will need CPUCool or a similar program

The IC Controller chip has some FSB settings that can be changed using software while in the windows environment (i.e. no need to change jumpers).<br><br>The program I use is CPUCool, which can be found at:<br><br><!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://www.podien.de">www.podien.de</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--><br><br>My board uses a winbond w83194-58a (I think that's the number) IC Controller chip, which has a 103, 112, 115, 120, and 133 MHz bus setting. 120 is the best I have ever been able to do without locking up almost immediately though...<br><br>Also, does your board have 1MB or 2MB onboard cache? If you have 2MB, you will almost certainly have to disable the cache to do better than 103 MHz.<br><br>Hope this helps! <p></p><i></i>

Finaly my K6-2 500Mhz (2,2V, 38^C) working at 582Mhz (6*97Mhz, 2,5V, 50^C)<br>Processor wouldn't work at 6*100Mhz even at 2,9V <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :( --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/im ... /frown.gif ALT=":("><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br>But It is nice. At least my DivX films plays fluently <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :) --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/im ... /smile.gif ALT=":)"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br><br>Thanks again for all advice.<br>You are the best <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :) --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/im ... /smile.gif ALT=":)"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <p></p><i></i>

Quick question...

Post by Mr Toastz »

Do you have 103MHz available? Again, cpucool will allow you to change to this speed while in the windows environment (i.e. no need to change jumpers).<br><br>If so, 5.5 x 103 (567 MHz or so) might give you slightly better overall performance (memory, etc running at higher bus). Just a thought... <p></p><i></i>

Yes It work fine at 103MHz.<br>I don't see diference from 582 and 567 so I put it to 103MHz <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :) --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/im ... /smile.gif ALT=":)"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br>Thanks for sugestion. <p></p><i></i>
