Does anyone know about how much I can get out of this 1900 after I unlock it? With it locked on a good day I can get like 1680 out of it and it still be stable. If it's hot I have to back it down. I haven't gotten too crazy with the voltages yet though either. Just curious cause i'm gonna unlock it this afternoon. So if my folding@home plummets, you'll know why...

Thanks Ace. I postponed unlocking it for now. From what i've seen everyone that gets good results with this thing uses the 12X multiplier anyway. I opted for more voltage and so far it's working pretty good. The reason that I didn't want to do that before is that these 431 watt enermax's supposedly have a weak +5 volt rail. There's a mod for it but I haven't felt like doing it yet.

yea i have a 350 watt enermax and my +5v is sitting at 5.000 or 4.999 constantly while the others are about 0.1 above their normals... what is this mod? might work on my 350 watt

I'd say yours is doing pretty good compared to mine. I'm sitting at 4.8 right now. Anyway, here's a link to the mod i'm talking about
http://bbs.pcstats.com/amdzone/messageview...eyword1=enermax I have the pics that are missing off that page if you want them. Cptn. Foo Foo was kind enough to email them to me. PM me if you want them and i'll send them to you.

If you squint and use your imagination, it looks kinda like it says 2100+.

thanks for the link... i don't think i'll need to do it then. mine stays constant at 4.999 in load and 5.000 idle, overclocked 200mhz. you'd think they would catch something simple like this and add that simple resistor... lol

Well the only problem now is getting 3DMark to run. It crashes for some reason. The first time I tried it it got to the nature test before it puked. Could that have something to do with my video card not being overclocked at all? I can run pcmark with no problems.
