Amd 2400 running 166 FSB in Asus A7N8X
Will a T'bred, 2400, 266 fsb, run at 166 fsb in an Asus A7N8X or an
'Nx8-Deluxe'? Anybody got one in any mobo running 166X15, its inherent multiplier. (I am presuming that 2.0gig/133=15 for mult.)? If not, what could one expect with one of those cpu/mobos using Kingston HyperX 3500 DDR, 1 stick? Thanks to all. sdlomi2 |

I wouldn't expect all of them to go that high and you'd probably need at least 1.85v vcore and a very good cpu cooler. -- Abit KT7-Raid (KT133) Tbred B core CPU @2400MHz (24x100FSB) http://mysite.verizon.net/res0exft/cpu.html |

Was hoping you'd reply. If the 2400 I get is unlocked, you agree there's a chance that it might do 15X166 by just varying fsb & cpu-volts? Would it take a better cooler than a Vantec, Aeroflow, VA4-C7040? If so, what'd you recommend? Got a couple of T'takes, a 6, 7, and 9 I believe. Freight trains for sure! BTW: I ordered twice from Compuplus and bought the Vantecs for the $5.95 each or so. Last I looked, they still had the same advert'd price. And shipping was fast, like Newegg. Still don't understand their pricing??? s |

Thanks to all. sdlomi2 The default speed of the xp2400+ is 2.0ghz You have PC3500 ram. Your mainboard will probably run it at 200x10. Thats what I ran my (unlocked) xp2400 on a nf7-s (nforce2) ended up at a stable 200x 11, just before I replaced it with a barton 2600. Check to see if your 2400 is pre week 39/40 (multiplier locked after that i think) chris |

If the 2400 I get is unlocked, you agree there's a chance that it might do 15X166 by just varying fsb & cpu-volts? There's a possibilty, but it's no sure thing. But with a locked pci/agp, you can use any FSB speed. So if 166 doesn't work, just lower it. I think 15*150 (2250Mhz) would be a good speed for it. Why push the limit. Would it take a better cooler than a Vantec, Aeroflow, VA4-C7040? If so, what'd you recommend? Got a couple of T'takes, a 6, 7, and 9 I believe. Freight trains for sure! The Aeroflow should be ok, but I'd run vcool or some similar software cooling. AT 2500MHz, you'll need it as cool as possible. I run my 2100+ at 13x166 (2166MHz) 24/7 with Athcool running. Idles about 32C. Full load will slowly take it to about 50C after some time. Vcore at 1.68v. I think the Aeroflow will do as good a job, if not better, than the TT's you have. -- Abit KT7-Raid (KT133) Tbred B core CPU @2400MHz (24x100FSB) http://mysite.verizon.net/res0exft/cpu.html |

Even if it's unlocked, he won't be able to lower the miltiplier below 13 with that board without another mod, either to cpu or pinmod. That is not correct. I have an unlocked 2400+ running on my asus A7N8X and can use all multipliers. |

It is a ASUS A7N8X-Dx, ver. 2.0 with bios 1006. I can not choose any multipliers lower than 9.5, they are split with the higher multipliers and controlled by the x8 bit IIRC. |
