I got a ver 2.0 , Still messing with the different bios flashes. I should have bought a new ver 2.1.

I swapped out the Dr. Thermal Ti-V77 for an SK-6 w/ the Senfu screamer fan ( not a Delta but 7000rpm ) and I gassed the Vcore up to 1.94V. CPU still locked at 11.5 multi w/ FSB @ 152 gives me 1.745 GHz. I looped 3Dmark2k1 for the 3.5 hours I was at school and it was still runnin' when I got home.

Sandra 2002 #'s are as follows.......

( Kingmax only runs at "normal" @ 152, as opposed to "fast" @ 148 )

Maybe I need to gas the mem voltage adj !!

Anyway, things are lookin' up here.

Have since backed it down to 1733 ( XP2100+ speed !! haha ) since I only need 1.9v there and 1.96v at 1745. Still plenty fast and runs cooler.

how'd u get the voltage to 1.9+v?
i thought the mobo only went up to 1.85v?

With the Iwill XP333R, you have options up to 1.85v and then there's also a "+10%" option on top of that. That's only on the 2.1 revision tho. Currently I have it at 1.8v +10% which gives me 1.9v on ALi Hdware monitor.

1.825 +10%=1.96v
1.850 +10%=2.03v

That's the main reason I took a shot with this mobo as it gives you some OCing headroom in addition to having ata133 that actually works.

The Shuttle AK35GTR (VIA) has voltage adj up to 2.3v (

) but unless you run your HDDs off the o/b Hpt372 RAID controller, which is ata133 compatiable, it's still basically an ata100 mainboard.

I wonderd about those Lifesavers!

I bought from tcwo.com twice, got lifesavers both times too.

First package was a 1700xp, fan, and Biostar board. Second time was a 60gig maxtor 7200rpm, and a 16x DVD drive.

Was planning to buy something else soon too and see if I got more of them. Nice touch, kid likes them.
Maybe I'll get her interested in building systems that way. She can't have the candy unless she uses the parts

Maybe that would work?
