About The Project

The project aims to provide an extensive control of all known and newly discovered parameters of nForce2-based motherboards for AMD's socket A (462) CPUs.

The goal is to have a single app to control timings, chipset settings and ROMSIP registers, FSB and AGP/PCI frequencies. All that with the ability to save and load own profiles for easier overclocking.

It is the result of a 2-years research and reverse-engineering, with the great help from members of @hardwareLuxxx and @hwbot forums.

Built With

The app is built with Embarcadero C++ Builder Community Edition and uses Openlibsys' WinRing0 to communicate with the PCI bus. A modified and enhanced version of the cpufreq-nforce2 driver is also used in order to control the integrated PLL.

• C++ Builder Community Edition
• OpenLibsys
• cpufreq-nforce2 linux kernel driver

Getting Started

No installation is required, the application is portable and distributed as an archive, containing required binaries.

Prerequisites

• Supported operating systems are Windows 2000 and newer.
• A motherboard with nForce2 chipset
• Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable Package

Installation

1. Install the VC++ 2005 redistributable package Downlod from Microsoft site
2. Unzip the application
3. Run NForce2Xtreme.exe

It is possible to run on an unsupported system, but you need to compile it as DEBUG. 64-bit systems also required the x64 WinRing0 binaries. This is only useful for development.
