Why is it KT133 when 133MHz isnt possible????? WTF

Im curious

Max i can get is 118
any higher Cmos Beeps this HIGH PITCHED NOISE!!

But i mean
doesnt KT133, mean capable of 133 MHz
...

How can i get higher than 118 to work?

My gigabyte 7zm will not allow multiplier changes but bus speed settings Yes..

How can i attain 133

Tell meeeee

yeah, ok Wusy, feel better now that you let that out?

One question, you say all this crap about how Via sucks then follow it up by saying, and I quote

"Then thats when KT133a & AMD760 comes to rescue the 133Mhz's life"

um, but isn't the KT133A a Via product? Does this Via chipset somehow bypass your claims of Via suckiness?

From what I have found, 118Mhz is pretty much the max on a KT133 based mobo.

If you really want to run your 100Mhz FSB Athlon at 133Mhz, what I have found is this. Use a KT133A based board, lower your proc's multiplier while increasing the FSB.

Anybody with relevant information, your help would be appreciated.

I guess i am maxed at 118 then

because i cannot change the multiplied on my gigabyte 7zm

its autodetect cpu voltage

so 118 will have to do then

i wanted 1Ghz so bad.. =-((

How fast is my 800 at 944 Mhz and 118 Mhz bus

compared to

faster then a 950 Mhz system?

Like i mean how fast would it be like running at

lol
this is like instant messaging huh?

lol

Read 2 posts ahead
how fast is my system running at with 944 with the 118 bus speed

like if u say bus speed is important for speed
whats mine comparable too in speed?

I do agree the 133Mhz DDR FSB mobo's should have been more widely available by now.

I am not to sure on your theories however, oh well, maybe you should check out the Ali DDR1 chipset, then you can slam Ali instead of Via.


By the way, thanks for not trying to turn this into a flame war, the all caps and multiple exclamations are a bit much but I can deal with it.

no problem at all, I have yet to join the anti wusy bandwagon that seems to be making the rounds.

The word I used was suckiness and no, it probably does not exist but c'mon, the infamous english hack wusy questioning my vocabulary, man that hurts. LOL

KT133 refers to the max SDRAM speed. The max 'offical' bus speed is 100MHz, although most boards can go higher (but not to 133MHz bus). The KT133A supports 133MHz bus speed and 133MHz SDRAM speed.

~ I'm not AMD biased, I just think their chips are better. ~

I think Via had ideas about it supporting 133Mhz FSB in the past as most mobo's with KX133 or KT133 chipsets have that setting available in the BIOS or via jumpers and who knows, people are ingenious little bastards, maybe some crackhead will figure out how to run a stable 133Mhz on these chipsets sometime in the future.

Or maybe somebody already has.................

KT133 wasn't design to go 133mhz. the chipset itself, the KT133 was able to go 133 and higher, as some people(those japanese freaks) have done with Turbo PLL(PPL i don't know, it's dumb you don't wana do it. it take hours to do, and it think around $100, FROM japan)

VIA those this ON PURPOSE, WHY??? rak the dough in. how you think Via is going to compete with INTEL, ALI, and whoever if they don't have the dough to begin with.

SO is it VIA fault, no not really, everyone is doing it. why do you think the newer KT133A stop around 150mhz. (exception to iwill KT133a, I've heard some guy got it to very close to 160mhz)

YOu think VIA or INTEL or anyone can't make that thing to go 166 BUS or even 200, right now. man, that be like saying OK you can buy a BLUE core TB750 at the price of $150 and HITING 1.2, and buying a TB 1.2. OK that didn't make sense to what i was saying before. but i'm still piss as my Greenie TB750(i was hoping a BLUE would show up, DAMMMnn!!!... Green!....) would only hit 950.

What i'm trying to say is, they (everyone doing business, don't want to bring out their best stuff out, even when they already achieve it) example, AMD/INTEL role out 700 then 750 then 800 then 850,....... why not just bam 1Ghz. NO, they want to make money on 750 first, then hoping some people like me, would get piss and go buy a 1.2 again when it's available.

IT's just plan marketing,.... I want my 2001 M3, still waiting........ and waiting.......... and waiting.

well for one thing, when people go to a 133 fsb they usually lower the multiplier. By going to 133fsb you are trying to get a 8*133 chip, it would run at 1066.4Mhz. I highly doubt that you could achieve this at the standard voltage(which you are stuck at because of autodetect). So I wouldnt say that the KT133 cant go to 133fsb. Just that is probably safe to say that your board with the KT133 chipset cant go to 133.

A mime is a great thing to waste! :lol:

Hello... Why are you complaining about the voltage settings... Just do the pecil trick to the L6 bridges...
Chances are you'll get the 1066 you're trying for..

The KT133 is capable of running the MEMORY at 133MHZ, while the FSB runs at 100MHZ. The KT133a can run both the memory and FSB at 133MHZ.

Be sure you have your memory set in the BIOS to run at 133MHZ. You will see an noticable increase in system performance.
