how do i overclock a mad duron 800mhz?

[weedguru_animal]

'someone needs to calm down?'who is this 'someone' full of rage?? ??fuck,you sound just like a parent talking to a badly behaved child!!!!like i said twiddler, and your concern for my constantly abysmal finances is noted also, but be advised that i strongly persist with my pc studies as it seems that they are increasingly important in todays society, it would be very dififuclt for me to actually break my pc through the ideas im enteratining, unless i got so angry with it that picked up the box and through it against the wall, which i reckon i can restrainy myself from doing,for now, but again thanks for your concern.
you must also understand mr twiddle that it is almost impossible to adequately express tone or feeling with words typed ona screen iuna forum, and you , yourself, would do well to now make asumptions about an authors state of mind, especially assumptions based on few lines typed in jest in a tech chat forum on a stoners website..
so please if you need to take time to relax, be my guest and wind yourself down a littlele....
and any constyructive advice you might haver, other than spending money, would be appreciated, all the more so, if it were nething to do with overclcking an amd duron 800~
cheers

Dont talk to me like Im some prick, I was just trying to give you some advice because it seemed like you didnt really know what you were doing and could of ended up doing breaking your pc. But whatever I cant be bothered to argue

Wow, some guys need to calm down. We're stoners remember?

Back on topic, havn't replied since I've been packing since I'm going back to Newcastle tomorow.

Animal, this program will find out the BIOS string for your motherboard. Just click on run once it has downloaded. Your BIOS String will be shown at the bottom.
http://www.motherboards.org/files/programs/bwz-rel.exe

Using the BIOS string, go to this page and enter it into tool 2. Post back with details.
http://www.motherboards.org/tools/moboidtools.html

Doing this, so we can properly identify the board in case to find its version. Eg there is a 6340M,6340K version etc.

the idea bios string doesnt work in that link you sent me
i put it in
and it just reurns to same sceen offering no information at all ?

thanks again for the help mosher, and good luck with your trip into newcastle!

Alright now after finding out more about your Duron chip.. spitfire. Apparently the multiplier is locked in that chip but you can increase the FSB looking at the results of the CPU-Z scan. You could increase the FSB to 133MHz so it would run at 1064MHz.

Try looking for "FSB" or "100" and "133" in either the motherboard or the BIOS. I honestly got no idea what board you have after trying to identifying it positively on motherboards.org. All I can say is that you should change the from 100 to 133 if you want to overclock it.

Let me know how it goes

[mosherben]

animal, after talking to a non-stoner friend of mine who knows a fair bit of comps (he's on the same course as me) it's a 50/50 whether your CPU will be able to handle the OC if you choose to try make it run at 1064MHz. It's possible that it would just fry and smoke itself up.

I can only suggust you defragment your hard drive to try and improve overall performance if you don't want to risk OCing the CPU.

this one any many others say it it a easy thing to do and dooable thing to do with the duron??
but if you say there sno use i gotta cept defeat!!!.i do have this p[orgram which lets me alter cpu clock timig or something, are there no programs i can download that will make a few changes like the miltiplier setting??as it is obviously dooable with the porcessor, just maybre not with my bios andmotherbaord???

[mosherben]

Alright animal, try changing your multiplier to 10 using CrystalCPUID. It seems to be recommended alot.

Good luck

[weedguru_animal]

i cant see how to change the multipier using that porgram you suggested, somethig to do with the ms editor???

anyguides around??
animal

[mosherben]

Try getting it to OC using 9 as the multiplier..

open command prompt, and go to where you extracted CrystalCPUID and then type in:
CrystalCPUID.exe /F10 /P1 /E

eg if you extracted it into my documents then you would type this straight away:
CrystalCPUID.exe /F10 /P1 /E

I guess you then restart the computer and see the results

[weedguru_animal]

cheer ben,but dont think that uti;lity sduited to my chip or motherbaord as through tghe gui you cant change the multiplier. the only thing that looks dangerous is the create ms list or something like that as it says by the paramters boxes'warning, dos so at your own risk'

i also have another program which lets me adjust the ramp delay (clock change timing)
with 4 sets of figures all 2-16
2 4 8 8 16

ne chamnce oc hagning this
?

[mosherben]

RAM OC'ing?

What brand is the RAM? If it is Consair or Kingston then I hear they OC well.

[weedguru_animal]

i not sure what kinda ram i got, i got 2 128mb sticks, i gunna get a 512mb stick when i get a job!

so no more ideas for improving my duron?we finsihed with that long and ultimately fruitless campaignb>??

cheers for all your efforts mosher
