| Quotes of useful info to know- Regarding the default bootstrap in ITK bios modding
http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...39&postcount=4 If you screw up and apply too high of a bootstrap there is a save, move jumper to maintenance then in bios options, downclock by minus 30% and reboot. Then you can flash some more appropriate settings. - How oc'ing works
http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...&postcount=207 the way the overclocking on this board works, is that in BIOS, you can select from 533/800/1066/1333 FSB options, and then you can overclock in 1% intervals up to 30% from each of the base FSB options
these boards have basically no limit to overclockin, they theoretically top out at 333*130% which is 432.9mhz FSB... plenty of headroom
CPU voltage up to 1.65v, vdimm up to 2.2v, chipset up to 1.7v IIRC You can use clockgen/systools for >432fsb AFAIK - Bios option - enhanced power slope
http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...&postcount=155 Enhanced Dubug - ??? you got me? lol Enhanced Power Slope - Drops vdroop by about 50%
Expansion Card Text - Controls whether add-in BIOS card (like SCSI/RAID cards) display init text on the screen when initializing during system boot - Custom bios flashing with ITK http://www.intel.com/support/motherb...74.htm#upgrade
Can I upgrade the BIOS and make custom settings changes simultaneously?
The Intel® Integrator Toolkit does not allow you to simultaneously upgrade your PC's BIOS version and implement custom settings. Example: Your PC currently has BIOS version P12. You create a custom .BIO file with the toolkit using a new BIOS (P14) that contains customized settings. You cannot install this custom .BIO file on your PC have the custom changes 'stick'. You must first update the BIOS to P14 and then apply the custom changes. - FSB Strap 800, 1067, 1333fsb all have their own fsb ceiling limits as explained by Tony/Bigtoe at http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...9&postcount=26
- Known issue with badaxe and conroe so far is if you run sandra or everest or speedfan apps, it will reset vcore to default 1.242v ish in windows
- Interesting findings from P5W DH FSB wall testing http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...d.php?t=111400
Seems these findings apply to Intel D975XBX bad axe as well, loosened tRFC/tRD from 35/6 to 40/7 and increased my max 32M benchable fsb from 433fsb to 440fsb!
