Yep
If your MSI board is Revision 2.0C, it's AMD approved. What PSU and DDR Ram are you usin? If you have lm_sensors running, are the voltages at or a little over spec, and are they steady, specially under load (ie, with mprime, 17 running) ?
BTW, you probly won't be assured you're ready for Trancode and Mencoder till you can run 'burnK7'what's burn K7 ?
for at least 10 or 15 minutes and stay properly cooled.... at 133x11.5.OK so I've spent best part of the day bobbing back and forth into bios and back to mprime .
I've varied the memory settings from the least to the most demanding, according to the mobo manual.I manually reset the cpu and memory voltages as suggested.
I don't actually note any significant variance . These are the most demanding settings used.
CHIPSET FEATURES SETUP Configure SDRAM by user : user SDRAM frequency : HCLK Cas latency : 2 Row precharge time : 3T Ras pulse width : 5T RAS to CAS delay : 2T Bank interleave : 4 - way Burst length : 8QW SDRAM 1T Command : Enable = 1T Fast command : enable
AGP mode :auto
AGP Comp driving : auto
Manual AGP Comp driving : [not applicable]
AGP Fast write : enable
AGP aperture size : 128MB ( var between 8/256MB)(S/B 64?)
AGP Master 1 w/s write : enable
AGP Master1 w/s read : enable
Write to read delay : enable
read to write delay
(manual says enable/dis) : 0 (choice 0/1/2/3)
AGP read synchronisation : enabled
PCI delay transaction : enabled
Bios protection : enabled
I didn't mess with the AGP stuff at all, just config sdram to fast command.
Looks to me like I have some pretty useless memory if stressing it between most and least demanding setting appears to have so little effect. Unless there can be something else having an overall effect on performance.
I have geforce3 video card The "cans look normal" I honestly don't think there is a heat problem with either cpu or memory.
I think I had better start investigating what memory manufacture best suits my
mobo.
