I'm trying to get a usable rig together for my friend to use at an upcoming LAN party we're attending. I have most of the parts from an old HP OEM rig, a pair of 80GB SATA HDDs salvaged from school, and another friend is donating his old 6670 (Not the best card but it did the job last LAN so it should do the same again). The CPU in the computer is an Athlon 64 3800+, which I think if I put my Phenom II 955's stock cooler on and ghetto rig a fan adapter to use the 120mm BM off my Hyper 212 EVO instead of the normal 80mm I should be able to OC enough to cut it (we're mostly going to be playing Xonotic, CoD4, Minecraft, and if we get it working maybe Garry's Mod).
Unfortunately the BIOS is locked and I can't get into any of the overclocking functions. There's a few revisions of this board (4 that I know of) and I've seen some BIOSes that work with the Nettle2 and Iris8 (Rev 1.0B) and one or two that work with the Nettle3 (Rev 2.1) but I am yet to find any that work for the original Nettle (Rev 1.0A). Does anyone know where I can find a suitable BIOS to flash onto this board, or how I can OC well on it without access to the BIOS functions?
