Re: Hacking The KNC Firmware: Overclocking

1GHz baby!

I accidentally managed to turn on all 8 VRMs on my old 8VRM Jupiter.
Since they were all on and we can control the voltage with the tuning firmware I decided to try some more overclocking.

When running these with all VRMs on they have a base voltage of about 0.9V, so it had to be lowered in the advanced tuning page to get a reasonable voltage. -0.5V works fine.

Currents and temperatures are reasonable.

Total power consumption on the inside of the VRMs is 850W. I guess that will be 950-1000W at the wall. Since my PSU is only 1050W I do not dare to go higher.

The November units will be crazy once you get the tuning FW!


Very good.

A few quest:

- are you able you able to turn on all the vrms at will? If yes how?
- what oc settings are you using?
- any mod to get better cooling?




and sadly if KNC were able to get enough VRMs in the beginning that whole ruse of 'we don't use 8' nonsense would of been avoided and all those lame firmwares would not of been needed either during the scramble to make 4 work..

very nice to see what was intended
