Tell me what i'm doing wrong because i can't get pass 225FSB. superpi keep giving me errors and prime fails in matters of minutes.

 

Genie BIOS Settings:

 

FSB Bus Frequency............................. - 225

LDT/FSB Frequency Ratio....................... - x3

CPU/FSB Frequency Ratio....................... - 10

 

DRAM Voltage Control.......................... - 2.8v

 

DRAM Configuration Settings:

 

DRAM Frequency Set............................ - 05/06

Command Per Clock (CPC)....................... - Enable

CAS Latency Control (Tcl)..................... - 2.5

RAS# to CAS# delay (Trcd)..................... - 3

Min RAS# active time (Tras)................... - 8

Row precharge time (Trp)...................... - 3

Row Cycle time (Trc).......................... - 11 Bus Clocks

Row refresh cyc time (Trfc)................... - 16 Bus Clocks

Row to Row delay (Trrd)....................... - 03 Bus Clocks

Write recovery time (Twr)..................... - 03 Bus Clocks

Write to Read delay (Twtr).................... - 02 Bus Clocks

Read to Write delay (Trwt).................... - 03 Bus Clocks

Refresh Period (Tref)......................... - auto

DRAM Bank Interleave.......................... - Enabled

 

 

DRAM Drive Strength........................... - 7

DRAM Data Drive Strength...................... - 1

 

Edit---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

Thanks for all thsoe who helped, got 2.9Ghz Stable, now to figure out a way to lower the temp (38idle-55load) and reach to 3Ghz.

Guest scott

Instead of your present settings of :

 

DRAM Drive Strength........................... - 7

DRAM Data Drive Strength...................... - 1

 

why don't you try setting everything from DQS Skew control & on down to the end of the bios as AUTO. When I formerly encountered your same problem, that made the difference for me! Just give it a try & see if it helps you:

 

DRAM bank interleave Enabled

DQS skew control Auto

DQS skew value 0

DRAM drive strength Auto

DRAM data drive strength Auto

Max async latency Auto

DRAM response time Auto (or normal)

Read preamble time Auto

IdleCycle limit Auto cycles

Dynamic counter Disabled

R/W queue bypass Auto

Bypass max Auto

32 byte granularity Disable (4 bursts)

CPU stepping: CABYE 0540

vcore was at stock 1.4v

 

The cpu can reach up to 3Ghz, RAMs could do 270Mhz. RAM settings were the problem. I still didn' get the hang of it yet but after playing wih the settigs i've got it to boot at 290FSB

 

New setting:

 

FSB Bus Frequency............................. - 290

Vcore ................................................- 1.45v

DRAM Voltage Control.......................... - 2.8v

 

DRAM Configuration Settings:

 

DRAM Frequency Set............................ - 9/10

Command Per Clock (CPC)....................... - Enable

CAS Latency Control (Tcl)..................... - 3

RAS# to CAS# delay (Trcd)..................... - 4

Min RAS# active time (Tras)................... - 8

Row precharge time (Trp)...................... - 4

Row Cycle time (Trc).......................... - 12 Bus Clocks

Row refresh cyc time (Trfc)................... - 16 Bus Clocks

Row to Row delay (Trrd)....................... - 03 Bus Clocks

Write recovery time (Twr)..................... - 03 Bus Clocks

Write to Read delay (Twtr).................... - 02 Bus Clocks

Read to Write delay (Trwt).................... - 03 Bus Clocks

Refresh Period (Tref)......................... - auto

DRAM Bank Interleave.......................... - Enabled

 

DRAM Drive Strength........................... - 8

 

The rest are on auto. Prime lasted for 4 hours and 13minutes, temp 34idle - 49load. Any other suggestions? Thanks for the help so far guys.
