Athlon 3200+ multi speeds?

any one know what the correct multiplier/FSB speeds are? ive just noticed that mine is running at `1.8ghz, which isnt right i know that much, but according to bios it should be running sweet :S any way can some one plz help

the Multiplier is correct at 11.0x

The FSB, on the other hand, should be 200mhz.

Is your ram DDR400? (ie, 200mhz x 2 / PC3200) If so then you can run it at the 1/1 ratio.

If not, then you will have to adjust the ratio depending on what ram you have.

Huh? Your running a 2500+ Barton Athlon XP, what's this got to do with a 3200+ AMD64?

A 2500+ runs on a 166 FSB with a multi of 11 for 1.83Ghz.. at 1.65v - that's how it's always been..

or are you trying to overclock it?

If your trying to overclock it to 3200+ speeds (2Ghz).. then try increase your FSB to ~180Mhz, OR if you can unlock the CPU can just increase your multi to 12.

But still your post needs more info..

Edit: Just removed some stuff to not confuse xD

The 3200+'s were 2.2Ghz Jono :)

so, 11.0 Multiplier at 200Mhz.

I think the BIOS has told the CPUID program that its a 2500+ rather than, in reality, it being a 3200+. Either that, or he got ripped off.

This happened with a few BIOS revisions on a variety of Socket A boards when the XP's were available, where you'd set it to 3200+ and it would set the clock rate and multiplier to a 2500+ CPU - whether it was or not.

Oh.. didn't realise there was even a 3200+ XP :O

Thanks Seqo :)

What board you have? Does it have jumpers on the board to set multi/fsb?

I'm hoping he has something easy, like an Abit board or any equally easy nForce2 board... so he can set it all in the BIOS without fiddling with jumpers and dipswitches :|

oh crap i didnt put this in, its an old socket a cpu lol. but its a 3200+ im sure of that

Edit: nforce2 dfi board, but last time some thing like this happened i tried to up the FSB to what it should be and the mobo shat its self :(

How do you know for certain it's not a 2500+? I'm not doubting you, but yeah..

Got a model of the DFI board? Some of the Nforce 2 boards did come in jumperless and jumpered versions, and I believe some in both. Given the jumpers are physically on the board, they take priority over the BIOS, so even if you set it in BIOS but have jumpers set differently, thatd stop it.

Other then that, I cant really see why it wouldn't let you, bad BIOS version? Tried putting the CPU back in? Reset CMOS?

Edit: hmm maybe Nforce 2 was jumperless.. mm I swear some weren't.. anyway just looked at all the DFI socket A nforce 2 boards and they are all set from BIOS, so that's that idea out the window.

All 3200+ Bartons are 400FSB

thanks for replies guy, but its all fixed now, for some reason the bios was setting the "default" multi too low :S but i changed it so its all good now :D

You're getting your wires crossed a bit.

The AXP used DDR so the effective theoretical bandwidth is doubled. The frequency of the FSB remains the same, but, it acts like its running at 400Mhz - it is not truly running at that speed.

Intel uses this as a marketing technique and label their devices accordingly: 400Mhz FSB, 533Mhz FSB & 800Mhz FSB. These are actually quad-pumped at the Bus Interface Unit.. the actual FSB's are: 100Mhz, 133Mhz and 200Mhz, respectively.

Seqo you fag dont noobify me.

VERY INSULTED

If you don't want him to noobify you then don't say wrong things... You have no excuse as you do know better...

Oh F*uck You Too Poof

Easiest way is to pull the heatsink off (with the computer off) and check the number on the chip (including the actual model number thats around 10 digits long) enter that into the AMD website and it will tell u exactly what you have and what it should be set to and what Mobos will give the best performance with that chip.

My 3200 Barton is DDR 400 only runs at 2500 speeds. need to upgrade to 3200 ram :)
