Asus A7V overclock to the max [kt133 chipset] [asus a7v]
Q Ive got a ASUS A7V with the latest bios (1009) and a 1.0 GHz Athlon TB processor
i relize that the highest clock multiplyer in this forum is 12.5 and Im at that point and the highest stable speed that I coach can run this board, as 105 it will not support 133 fsb because it has the kt133 chipset
the problem is that I know my cpu is much higher clock speeds and I heard that some people have had to run at 13 and 14 hours, multiplyers but got it done unless you have a 1.3 or a 1.4 GHz CPU (from what I found at google.com) and automatically detects the intensification or something.
i Id heard that if you clock in mult of 12.5 would automatically go to 13 if you own a 1.3 GHz CPU (which I did not) and if you set to 5, the automatic goto 14 clock mult (if you have a 1.4 GHz) but I own a property and wants the 1GHz higher clock using mults
Can someone tell me how a 13 or 14 hours to reach from the board dated multiplyer ?
Re:probably the revision number. Mine is 1.02.
Re:i only have one a7v right now, but i used to have 2 of them…. the one i have now is board revision 1.02 i dont remember what the other one was… but both worked fine overclocking to 1.3ghz
i dont use bios 1009 (and it didnt exist when i set up the boards) my current a7v that is running at 13×100 is using bios 1008
maybe you should try 1008??? i just dont know 
Re:Yeah it is an A7v rev 1.03 and i have the 1009 bios version no there is no way to change the clock mult in the bios i have everything set to use jumpers
12.5 just isn't 13
Maybe it is this board's revision that makes it different maybe ?
Re:um you said you tried changing it in bios???
are you using and a7v (as you stated) or is it an a7v-e?
also are you sure your using bios 1007 or higher? (when using an older bios the 12.5 is actually 12.5)
Re:I have a 1.0GHz Tbird running at 1.3Ghz on the A7V. I connected the L1 bridges using a mechanical pencil and then set the jumpers to 100 MHz FSB, and set the dipswitches to 12.5X, which it read as 13.0 X. So I am running a 1300MHz, actually 1312 because the signal generator isnt precise. I have 1009 BIOS.
Re:yeah i already tryed that and it automatically sets the clock mult to 12.5 when i put it at 12.5 it won't point it to 13
i tryed setting it with jumpers and with the bios
i was also considering setting the bridges on the cpu to be a 1.4ghz cpu or something but that isn't possible since it is a TB
Looks like my MB just sucks and is holding me back.
the problem could be overcame with some kind of bios which would just let me set the clock mult the way i want but asus doesn't seem to have that.
If anyone has had any success with getting a TB cpu to run at 13 or 14 clock mult and the cpu is lower by default please tell me how you did it ???????
thanks

Re:you dont need to own a 1.3ghz cpu to run 1.3ghz
just set the dipswitches at 12.5x and it will run 13x (bios revision 1007 and newer have remapped 12.5 to 13x)
i have an a7v in my server that runs a 1ghz tbird at 1.3ghz by way of 100mhz fsb and 13x multiplier
i cant verify if its the same with 5x and 14x (ive heard conflicting reports, but my cpu wont boot at 1.4ghz so i cant test it)
as a side note i run bios 1008
