Can I clock it?
My athlon has this serial number:
AMD Athlon TM AXDA2400DKV3C 9574772250426 AIXHB 0321TPAW c 1999 AMD It normally runs at 15 x fsb (133). Can I change the multiplier without soldering or tampering with this CPU? Motherboard is Soltek SL75-DRV5. Memory is DDR 333 = currently set to fsb+33MHz (166). I am thinking of turning the multiplier down and the fsb up. Multiplier 12x fsb 166, memory fsb+0 (still 166). Would I need to turn up the voltage to achieve this?? Then maybe I can push the fsb to 170, 175 etc. |

Can I change the multiplier without soldering or tampering with this CPU? in theory it is a week 21 processor from 2003, this is well outside of the normal date range of multiplier locked processors, so in theory the answer is yes. However, I believe that multiplier adjustment is only via dip switches whereas fsb is bios and/or dip switches Motherboard is Soltek SL75-DRV5. Memory is DDR 333 = currently set to fsb+33MHz (166). I am thinking of turning the multiplier down and the fsb up. Multiplier 12x fsb 166, memory fsb+0 (still 166). Would I need to turn up the voltage to achieve this?? 15x133 = 1995 12x166 = 1992 perhaps not, Then maybe I can push the fsb to 170, 175 etc. yep but that might involve a slight increase in vcore. |
