Hi members 😀
I would like to know if one could modify the components (on a lets say GA5AX) of the clock generator?
This could help stability when overclocking.
I would think it will be like turbo pll but to lower the clocks on pci buss and maybe cache
This is kind of a wild thing to do I know but I am obsessed with pushing socket 7 😊
Is the onboard clock generator (usually a PLL) responsible for the PCI frequency? Or is this division done via the chipset? If I recall correctly, my socket 3 has the FSB division done via the BIOS/chipset. If that is the case with your GA5AX, then I don't think that installing a modifyable PLL chip will help any with PCI frequencies. There may be some boards which run the PCI bus asynchronously, and in such case, may do the FSB division through the PLL.
Plan your life wisely, you'll be dead before you know it.
Yes, AFAIK dividers are determined by the chipset and the only chipsets that are capable of 133MHz on proper PCI frequency are the Aladdin 7 and SIS 530 and reports are conflicting on those even.
I have a GA5AX 5.2 And I am stuck at 115x5.5 😢 😢
I think I must try to make an adjustable external power supply for the VCC3 because I read that most successful record chasers use asus and its 4V VCC3 😲
Was also wondering what will happen if one add an extra cache chip on top of the existing one 😕 Make smoke? 😊
