Terraptor i have a problem with my CUSL2, it blocked me at 220Mhz but i not understand why -.-

The CPU can go on but the mobo blocked me also if i set on setFSB or in the BIOS 230Mhz

the mobo run the OS run well but CPU-Z show me only 220Mhz

How did you do?

haven't ever met this problem. Tried another bios? Does aida show the same?

i tried all bios for CUSL2 even the "evil inside Bios"

Maybe is a bug of CUSL2 but not for all version...

I have ASUS CUSL2 rev 1.02 with green capacitors...

You? thanks terraraptor

i don't remember capacitors that my cusl had - soldered other ones. Try cpufsb then - maybe it will override the limit.

Depend on the clockgen you have.

i tried it later thanks terrraraptor

Uhh i not understand, can you explain me?

Thanks ney

On the motherboard there is a chip that is called a clockgen (clock generator).

 

This is a clockgen for exemple:

 

 

If your clockgen can only go up to 220 MHz then you can't do anything about it, you are "hardware" limited

i yes i know it

CUSL2 have ICS 94201CF

So if all CUSL2 have this clockgen, why my CUSL2 can't go over?

Maybe not all have the same one that's the thing

 

Had several times the exact same s370 board (rev) but all had a different clockgen. So maybe it's the same for the CUSL2.

uhhh interesting...

maybe is true....

just put a heatsink on the clockgen and cool it as good as possible, then the "hardware" limit is no problem anymore. it will clock way higher then.

You can't bypass like lol

also my 2 Cusl do max 220 fsb :-(

Is it a limit in the software/bois you can set or you can set over 220 but it doesn't work/crash ?

you can set a fsb over 220Mhz but it doesn't work....

I can do a video if you want

When you say it doesn't work, you mean ?:

- doesn't apply

- crash

- does nothing

 

What tools have you tried, do you have higher values than 220 in the BIOS ?

I have this problem like gigioracing even when i use Celeron Coppermine-128 with bus at 66Mhz...

If i start from 66Mhz the mobo blocked me at 108Mhz but if i start from 100Mhz FSB i have no problem and i can go over the CPU's limit.

I have this problem with setFSb but even if i set the fsb on the BIOS is the same

The problem is that doesn't apply

you set the fsb but does not change...

Christian Ney says:

Hum,

 

Try this http://www.cpufsb.de/index.html

 

Even if you set 225 MHz in the BIOS you have 220 in Windows ?

Stermy57 says:

I will try it later

Yes, and sometimes even less than 220 Mhz... blocked me at 218/219Mhz it's very strange

I had the same problem with my CUSL2-C few months ago. I tried to get decent SDRAM clock (2:3 divider) and it was impossible to pass ~ 100MHz FSB. When I set more, the real clock remains at 100 - checked in CPU-Z, aida64.

 

HW:

 

CUSL2-C rev. 1.02 (ICS 94201DF), modded "evil inside" BIOS

PIII coppermine, 133MHz FSB - tried more of them, same results

PC133 CL2 SDRAM - validated at > 170MHz on different MB
