fhertlein Posted March 18, 2006 Posted March 18, 2006 On the Lanparty SLI-DR I was able to OC 11x267, HTT = 4, 2T 3-4-4-9, with volts at 1.45 CPU, 2.8 RAM. Only thing that changed was the mobo and trying anything but stock, results in various BSODs, or plain old freezing. Using the E704-BT2 BIOS and now I am stumped that any form of OCing just will not take. Any ideas? Thank you. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pyr0 Posted March 18, 2006 Posted March 18, 2006 the expert is a different board... as you have seen, the settings that worked on your old board will not work the same on the expert try tweaking your memory settings (particularly the drive strength and data drive strength settings) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdLSmith Posted March 18, 2006 Posted March 18, 2006 I don't think anyone will criticise your PSU. I'm in processs of switching to the Expert. At least it will keep me from ordering the Venus. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

fhertlein Posted March 18, 2006 Posted March 18, 2006 Did your Windows install also change? No. Everything boots and runs fine, provided I run it at stock speed, using the same memory timings and voltages from the prior setup.

UncleDavid218 Posted March 18, 2006 Posted March 18, 2006 Microsoft now says putting in another motherboard is like getting a whole new computer. I dont make the rules, just letting you know. You might benifit from a reinstall of Windows to see if that helps. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
markyp23 Posted March 18, 2006 Posted March 18, 2006 Maybe it's the PSU, that one's really weak. I think it's most likely that you'll need to start all over again with new timings etc... Check the OC database. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
fhertlein Posted March 19, 2006 Posted March 19, 2006 Now the system will not boot with 2 sticks of ram. I tested all four sticks of ram, in the first orange slot, and the system booted without issue. As soon as I add a second stick, in the orange slots, the motherboard stops with the three LED diagnostic lights. I even attempted booting with the yellow slots with the same results. Makes me wonder if the issue lies with the memory and slots, or if the CPU is having trouble. EDIT: I have switched back to my SLI-DR board and will be RMAing the Expert. Everything is running fine with the older board, so I think the Expert was FUBAR, since I could not OC the thing even a bit.
