finagle69 Posted January 5, 2006 Posted January 5, 2006 Newb Question: Why run 1.425 x 110% when you can just run 1.56v? I got the same options but do not understand why. Thanks the bios will only go up in .25V increments, so he would have to run either 1.55V or 1.575V. but with the % adjuster, 1.425x110% gives 1.568 (which is exactly what i use).

I see... I thought it had something to with start up volts and changing into setting volts. I read that somewhere. ..

finagle69 Posted January 5, 2006 Posted January 5, 2006 well the startup VID i'm not too sure about. i usually set it to what my VID is. if i use 1.425+110% i set startup to 1.425, don't ask me why Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetjaguar Posted January 5, 2006 Posted January 5, 2006 does anyone know if upping the LDT voltage and chipset voltage helps stability ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy_A Posted January 5, 2006 Posted January 5, 2006 I just got my 165 in and installed it. Of course I was so excited that I slapped it in my rig without writing down the serial (pretty bad, I know). I'm running Ballistix 2x512 and am using the conservative settings as per the "official OC guide" in regards to TCCD mem. Isolated, they run to about 265 with these settings and I don't want to loosen timings much more (of note CPC enabled, Interleave enabled, skew auto). Alone, I can easily get my 165 up to 2.6 with 1.35 + 1.1% with load temp about 45 both cores loaded prime for about 1 hour. My problem is that I'm unable to use ANY mem dividers except 1:1 (200) or 1:2 (100). I read that some don't like the 180 or 166 settings, so I tried steppin it down ratio wise even futher, but no dice until 100! Therefore, at this point I'm running at only 2.34 Ghz (260x9). When I drop the divider, I can post, get into bios, but when it tries to launch windows, I just restarts and goes back to the post screen, try again and repeat. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to make my computer stable while using dividers? Any help would be much appreciated.

Inanimate Posted January 5, 2006 Posted January 5, 2006 I am DESPERATELY looking for the 170 dualcore. I live in sweden, so I wont have any warranty ordering from the U.S, but I can from within EU. Anyone know a site with GOOD pricing on the 170dual that can be shipped to Sweden? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone know a site with GOOD pricing on the 170dual that can be shipped to Sweden? Hmm, I'm not to sure about that...I really believe you have world-wide warranty nomatter where you buy it from. I know for a fact that this is true to Intel CPU's, and I think AMD uses the same policy. (Jag köpte själv en CPU från Singapore och hemma i Sverige var det bara skicka den till England för utbyte) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
