CharmedLover84 Posted October 22, 2006 Posted October 22, 2006 Funny how you say that yet .5 multis are the only ones I ever seem to be STABLE on LMAO BIOS Settings: FSB Bus Frequency............................. - 242 LDT/FSB Frequency Ratio....................... - 3x CPU/FSB Frequency Ratio....................... - 12x PCI eXpress Frequency......................... - 102Mhz (Stupid question, is screwing with this a good idea?) CPU VID StartUp Value......................... - Auto CPU VID Control............................... - 1.425V CPU VID Special Control....................... - Auto LDT Voltage Control........................... - 1.2v Chip Set Voltage Control...................... - 1.52v DRAM Voltage Control.......................... - 2.87V DRAM Configuration Settings: DRAM Frequency Set............................ - 200 Command Per Clock (CPC)....................... - Enabled CAS Latency Control (Tcl)..................... - 3 RAS# to CAS# delay (Trcd)..................... - 4 Min RAS# active time (Tras)................... - 8 Row precharge time (Trp)...................... - 3 Row Cycle time (Trc).......................... - 8 Row refresh cyc time (Trfc)................... - Auto Row to Row delay (Trrd)....................... - 02 Write recovery time (Twr)..................... - 02 Write to Read delay (Twtr).................... - 02 Read to Write delay (Trwt).................... - 03 Refresh Period (Tref)......................... - 3120 DRAM Bank Interleave.......................... - Enabled DQS Skew Control.............................. - Auto DQS Skew Value................................ - 0 DRAM Drive Strength........................... - Auto DRAM Data Drive Strength...................... Auto Max Async Latency............................. - 6ns DRAM Response Time............................ - Fast Read Preamble Time............................ - 4.5ns IdleCycle Limit............................... - 128 cycles Dynamic Counter............................... - Disable R/W Queue Bypass.............................. - 16 x Bypass Max.................................... - 04 x 32 Byte Granularity........................... - Disable(4 Bursts) Testin'er out like this, slightly different than the settings I used for OCDB, might give me just a teeny bit of a performance boost.

zarathrustra Posted October 22, 2006 Posted October 22, 2006 Well, I've cleaned and re-setup my W/C loop the way it should be (Pump>CPU and No.5 nozzle), and temps are way back down. Maybe now I can get my GGG back.. heh. I have however managed a 9 hour prime at 280 1:1 with only 1.42v @CharmedLover. PCI-e frequency may only be worth upping if you have insane overclocks on the vid card, or I hear it can fix some 7900 series "issues". I found upping to 120 gave me a few extra 3dMark points, but not enough to matter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

farksy Posted October 22, 2006 Posted October 22, 2006 PCI-E bus speeds does improve overclocks in certain isloated cases ..... so it's worth a try. One such case was that someone needed to up his PCi-E bus in sync. with HTT once it's above 300. Very interesting yet odd. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

farksy Posted October 22, 2006 Posted October 22, 2006 farksy/ help me... GIve a more comprehensive explanation of the situation before i can help you. I mean you can't just post the settings and expect me to get it stable for you. [That's why i ain't responding in VR] I need to know what's happening. Moreover there are better overclockers here with advice. You obviously didn't report back the findings. How about i supposed to help ? *Sorry to the other guys, might be a little harsh but i've tried helping as he posted in Vr-Zone too, but it was really too vague for me to understand.

Guest drteming Posted October 22, 2006 Posted October 22, 2006 I had it. Got to GGG at 1.51v. I passed prime95, got the screen shots for all the benchmarks except for 3DMark03. Kept on bumping up the voltage to get it to pass. And then...BSOD at 1.56v. Now, I am no where near stable at 334x9 in Windows at any voltage. Fortunately 312x9 is still stable at stock voltage. I guess I'll have to "settle" for a 1 gigahertz overclock . Curse you 3DMark03, may your codes rot in he--. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try tweaking your PCI-e frequency...I've had to bump that even without overclocking on some ATI gfx cards...I know your not using ATI by the way Just something to try.

I actually run it now before prime even gets turned on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

EDIT: Your siggy indicates an OC on the gfx card as well. Take it back to stock I had the gfx card down to stock speed and I still cannot get Windows stable at 3GHz. I must have bonked the cpu somehow with the voltage. Like I said, I still have a stable 1GHz overclock, so I guess I should be happy.

Like I said, I still have a stable 1GHz overclock, so I guess I should be happy. Do a cmos clear and try and get back to your 3ghz stable settings, then play with PCI-e frequency. Hopefully you didn' tator your processor but realisticly keeping it below 1.60v I don't think that is the case. If you have blue screened repeatedly, crashed and burned, etc, etc...you might try a fresh install. Another thing is make damn sure you are back to the exact settings that got you to 3ghz. Make sure you haven't overlooked something... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
