i did some tinkering yesterday with a 2400-m in the c-kt600. as a drop
and go you get a 1200mhz. i did several different pin mods and could
not get anything that would come close to a stable system. it appears
the way the bios is written, either it will never work with a mobile
or there needs to be an additional modification.
i have a 7nif4 that i picked up at the same time as the 600. it has
the optmal and agressive setting too. i’ve got a duron 1800 in it now
and haven’t experimented with it yet with the unlocked xp2500 or the
xp2400-m to see if there is a multi option that becomes available.
i would think your board and bios would react close to that of the
600, with a mobile. i wouldn’t gamble on getting the mobile to work.
i see two possible choices. a xp2500+ with the 11 multi or maybe the
xp2600+ , with the 11.5. since i was able to run the 2500 at 11x200
without any mod, you should be able to do the same and run at
xp3200/2200mhz. you might be but no guaranty to get a xp2600+ to
11..5x200. this all hangs on whether your using 400 ram.
i don’t know if your in the states but the only location that i have
puchased from before is
http://www.pcprogress.com/product.asp?m1=pw&pid=AMDXP2500333OEM
for the xp2500+.
you can play with the fsbs too as long as there is a agp & pci lock on
the board. the 7nif4 does.
you can use
http://www.cpuid.org/clockgen.php
my 2 cents..
edit: i don’t see why you couldn’t use the pin mod with a stock xp for
some extra voltage. that should work ok. as long you have good
cooling.
