ssbopper Posted December 16, 2005 Posted December 16, 2005 I'm having a little problem where i've set my ram divider to 1/1 and oced my fsb to 300 with an 8.5 multiplier, but both memtest and cpuz say my ram is running at 283.4! is there anyway to fix this? thx.

DragonTattooz Posted December 16, 2005 Posted December 16, 2005 I have been studying the overclocking guide. Originally Posted by Wildstyle(DRAM frequency) X (RAM divider) = CPU frequency Dividers are all whole numbers, so if you use a half multiplier your memory speed is calculated by using the next highest whole number. An example... 200X10 = 200/10 (divider) = 200MHz 200x10.5 = 2100/11 (next highest divider) = 190MHz (effective memory frequency.) If you do the math, it comes out to 283.33333... for your configuration. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DragonTattooz Posted December 16, 2005 Posted December 16, 2005 Read page 11 of the OC guide. Or read Post # 3 in this link. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
