A Photo Guide for Pin Modding 9300/XPS and Applying AS5 to GPU - Page 8

post #141 of 1457
Thanks my friend, I'll keep everyone informed. I'm still working with my laptop in bits!... No point putting it together as I should have the new CPU Tuesday... : )
post #142 of 1457
have you tried capping the max multi? maybe 2.4 is too much but itll run 2.26, or 2.13
post #143 of 1457
Yeah, I thought of that but didn't like the thought of having to run a program in the background to keep it stable.

I'll see how this 1.7 goes, hopefully a brand new chip should be more promising...

Ok read through all of thread and this seems almost unbelievable. My question is I have a Packard Bell r4350 Here with -Processor Intel Celeron M 350Cache 1024KB 1.3Ghz
Would it be possible to do this mod on this chip and what would be the outcome?

It wont work because of the chipset. You need a 915 chipset for it to work and your computer has the 852 in it.

I'm running rock stable at 2.13 GHz on my brand new i9300!

I was even able to lower to voltage to 1.276V at max and .748V at min. I might be able to go a little lower on the voltages but I don't want to push it.

This is probably going to be a no, but I am curious none the less: does anyone know if the ULV chips will work?
post #150 of 1457
Ulv?....
post #151 of 1457
Ultra-low-voltage. The 1.0, 1.1 and 1.2ghz chips they use in the ultra-portables to save of battery power.

sure they will but the multi is very low on them that when you run them at 533, the gain wouldnt be that much.

and ulv chips would only work again assuming youre using it in a 915 platform, which most ulv's dont (at least yet)

Well, another successful pinmod here. The only thing is, I'm now noticing some weird faint buzzing/beeping going on. My cpu is idling at about 32c, so it seems ok there, but I can't figure out what the noise is. It's driving me nuts though.

It goes away when I step the clock down. I'm a little worried.

I should also add I used the vss above bsel[0] not to the left of it. I wouldn't think this would make too much of a difference (common ground right?) but could this be it?

I can't imagine the ground causing it. Try manually adjusting your fan speeds to see if this is causing the noise problem. If it goes away when slowing the fan, maybe one got skewed accidentally during the mod. I have seen where the fan cap gets slightly bent and it hits the side. That is the only thing I can think of right off.

I'll try it, although it doesn't sound mechanical, it sounds electrical. I might have to try running it disassembled so I can narrow down the source of the noise. I really don't like the thought of doing that though.

I happens most when booting up, and then seems to happen pretty randomly when processing, most often I've noticed it when opening a new window or application.

Also, have you noticed any weird behavior with centrino hardware control? It's reporting 16x multiplier in some locations, and 21x others (which makes sense) but in my voltage settings it will only let me go up to 12x.

And, what program do you use to control your fan speeds?
post #156 of 1457
Ok, I turned the fan off completely and it didn't help. This weekend I'll try switching VSS and using a lead from a power cable (I used a wire from a phone connector). I doubt this will help, but I might as well rule it out. It does seem to be getting better though. I can always hope against logic that it will 'break-in' and stop annoying me.
post #157 of 1457
I'm sure it has nothing to do with which VSS pin you used. I wouldn't risk messing with it again.

Try muting your speakers and see if that makes the noise stop. Also try putting your ear right by the speaker to see if that is the source of the sound. I'm wondering if it is some weird harmonic that is couple onto the sound system. If you want to get more exotic with testing this theory you could disconnect the speaker.

Nest suggestion: I recall some people here having issues with noise that was found to be caused by the USB root hub and that disabling it made it go away. I'm a little fuzzy on the detail but perhaps a search will yield some results. I think the issue was with an i8600 but maybe your problem is somehow related.

EDIT: You should probably start a new thread (support section?) to get a little more traffic to your issue.

Hope this helps,

Martian

I'll start a new thread this evening. I already muted the speakers, and that didn't help. As you said, disconnecting them might make a difference, but the sound seems to be coming from the area of the CPU/Fan. As I down the multiplier, it gets fainter and fainter, and disappears all together at 6x.

I'd like to pull out the pin mod and see if it goes away, but I'm loathe to tempt fate again. I'll try disabling the USB root hub later tonight and see if that works. I'm beginning to wonder if it did this with the old chip and I just didn't notice it, as it's pretty faint at 12x.

:grumble:

I'm going to try this tonight, wish me luck.

Hey guys,

thinking about pin modding my 9300 in a year or so. Thinking about the 1.8 to 2.4.

Is there really a point of using as5? How much does it cost?
