Yes, I noticed that there are two cache chips on the layout in the manual and that the update to 1Mb is 'optional'. But this -is- Aladdin V according to this review, right ? http://www.super7.net/Super7/Freetech/p5f103rev.html I guess it will not be easy to find a 1Mb version. I made a mistake in …

I have already contacted that member a few days ago :p You can see that there is space for two cache chips on the freetech P5F103 . The one he had(sold now) only had one cache chip. And thanks for that info @PARKE, but I am looking for specifically for motherboards with Aladdin V chipset 😀

I'm a happy camper :) At last I have a working P3 Rambus bord. Sounds simple, but every single i820 board I have tried over the years, from Intel VC820 to Asus P3C-E - and a few P3C-Ds for good measure was utterly dead. With one exception: a Supermicro i820 board with MTH and SDRAM. Amazingly it …

Hi members :) This is sort of a myth to me. If you read the motherboard spec sheet most of them says "1Mb optional" Now looking at the Aladdin V 1541/1542 datasheet and doing some more reading it is not possible for the ALi chipset to have 1Mb of cache. But a motherboard by the name of freetech …

Ok, best thus far with the MVP3G-M is 4182 @550Mhz when I change FSB jumper on motherboard to overclock it locks up, I tried everything! It refuses to boot and sometimes does not even POST. This is with the jumper @112mhz. Not even 3x112 works. However! I tried software overclocking. And its rock …

OP let me help you here, you will thank me :) Is SS7 slow? YES. Why? SS7 motherboards were detuned because of stability problems due to. Reason 1: K6-2/3 CPUs were unstable. K6-2+/3+ are not unstable. Reason 2: Stable good quality ram was not easy to get so they had to go with settings that will …

Ok. I do have an Audigy 2 ZS.. I don't have a GeForce 256 DDR though. One of the cards that keeps evading me. Not sure if I have a PCI Gb nic or not. All my regular P5A boards are dead... So P5A-B it is. I could also test with an MVP3 based board as well. Awesome. Use win98 with ALi driver 1.82, …

ALi driver 1.72 and 1.82 I find to be the best performance wise and stability. Sometimes when the system is unstable you fix it by going into Regedit and then change setting in the ALi driver :) My K6 3+ chips stability is not one the same. The best chip is stable at 1.8V 600mhz. The world record is …

I have tried a couple of different sound cards. Both PCI and ISA cards. I stubled across this video and decided to try the awe card. And the AWE card is the fastest so far https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TC01uiyuJxI&t=1235s Go to 7:33 and see the scores in quake 3. I have also tried alot of …

Long time no updates 😁 I am still trying to figure out what windows and drivers to use with ATI cards. And on a side note how do I fix the images?

Try driver 7.76 with a Geforce 3 Ti500. This will be the fastest I am sure 😀

Some of these were in the post for a while - while looking for a decently priced K6-III for my Lucky Star MVP3 motherboard, I found an Asus P5A-B along with one - there was so much thermal paste on the CPU :) Notice the thermal paste on the DIMM slots? IMG_8008-crop.jpg It was advertised as 525MHz, …

Hello, this is what my K6 can do: https://s10.postimg.org/576o24zj9/record4262_GAT2.jpg Hi friend :) That is a great score indeed, however it is actually a glitch. Look at the fps in the nature test, it is not held back by the cpu, and this is what boosts the score dramatically. However that is …

Looks like ALi driver 1.90 works good on GA5AX stable and you can enable the fast options in regedit and still be stable. Got 4500+ with GA5AX with cpu 110x5.5 not bad.
