i know you have to break the second to last l5 bridge but how? do i cut into it? it looks hard to do.. by the way i have tmc-xps and i plan on installing two mobles into my dual athlon mp board (a7m266-d) and overclocking them....

EDIT: I heard you can break it with a battery???? how??? thanks
 
bump... thats what i didnt want to hear... people break em all the time.. i just dont know how... im trying to break the power now off a moble cpu by breaking the second to last L5 bridge
 
amdmb.com for info?

anyways, best of luck! I think I saw that someone's 2500+ hit 2.7ghz the other day.. on air too!

You should have one hell of a system at that point..
 
It was my understanding that the AMD 761 and 762 Chipsets could not support barton cores....

being a non preformence board, it probely is not going to give you many voltages options, with will be a problem with the mobile chips, and may not unlock the CPU so your going to be just FSB overclcoking, and from experence the board will only do like 150-160 MAX.

looking futher into it, the baord only supports PC2100 with tell me it only supports 133FSB CPUs. This back my line on 150-160 Max FSB......


EDIT: A little google action, the onyl chips you can run are MPs or A palimino or lower CPU moded to a MP...The Tbreds and bartons dont do it. if you can find one still, the pally cores went up to 2200+ that is you best bet as it hase the highers multiplyer locked in, so you will get the most MHz when you add a higher FSB...Granted the pally are very shitty overclockers, I would think around 1.85Ghz tops on a 145Fsb.


...ohh yea they run hot as hell
 
default voltage for Mobile XP processors is 1.45V if I'm correct.

That isn't exactly high.

Click to expand...


no but it mnay give problems on a board that only gives you pally voltages +and - of .5v
 
you can run tbreds and appalbreds AND bartons... it's just the realistically highest FSB you'll run is about 150 on a MP system... thus.. you need multiplier adjustments to keep the chip at stock speed ;P

And if your chip is the new substrate, you dont blow the bridges anymore... it'd be useful if you could get a pic of it... Generally, people cut the newer chips..
 
I remember someone over at the amdmb forums that modded the mobile 2400+ for a Dual system, I'll try to post a link later today (haven't slept yet) or you could try searching over there for it yourself.
 
hey thanks for your help.. Killa bee.. im using TMC-XP this lets you adjust the multi.. also i can get one to work but it does not work with both cpus in.. i think this means i have to cut the powernow bridge.. also i had one overlclocked to 2.2ghz :) just need to get 2 working now
