spark plugs. Posted November 10, 2006 Posted November 10, 2006 i'm trying to find the max HTT for my motherboard and in order to do so I: lower HTT multi to 2x lower cpu multi to 5x lower ram divider to 100 upped the chipset voltage to 1.8 upped the ldt voltage to 1.4 and i keep upping the htt. for some reason, i CANNOT boot past 300 mhz. at 300mhz it runs fine with absolutely no problems, but for some reason, i cannot get the computer to boot even at 301.

spark plugs. Posted November 10, 2006 Posted November 10, 2006 can someone tell me why? also, can someone tell me what chipset settings i should have enabled/disabled? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

dr_bowtie Posted November 10, 2006 Posted November 10, 2006 Thank you.... Now to get started... what are the max Memtested limites of your ram....you did this right...??? use Cpu-Z to verify you LDT setting...I think you can leave that to auto..? I can on my SLI-DR... And out of curiosity..what bios are you running...? Edit that into your sig... that Ultra 600watt unit may be youe culprit...? Ultras arent in very good regards around here... Check the OCDB for ram settings with ram like yours... That board is well capable for over 300fsb and that chip should easily hit the magic 334x9.... put the chipset at 1.6....LDT at 1.4... youe either at a ram limit or a power limit... hard to tell with out the answer to the ram limit question...

spark plugs. Posted November 10, 2006 Posted November 10, 2006 Thank you.... Now to get started... what are the max Memtested limites of your ram....you did this right...??? haven't done that yet, but would it affect the mobo fsb even if the mem divider is turned right down? use Cpu-Z to verify you LDT setting...I think you can leave that to auto..? I can on my SLI-DR... cpu-z currently says that with a 300x9 3xhtt multi, i'm at 901.5 mhz And out of curiosity..what bios are you running...? Edit that into your sig... i'm running the 11/14/2005 bios that Ultra 600watt unit may be youe culprit...? Ultras arent in very good regards around here... assuming it were the culprit, would it really prevent me from adding just ONE more 1 mhz and not being able to boot? it's really funny. i'm running at 300 mhz no probs. but if i go to 301 mhz, i can't boot Check the OCDB for ram settings with ram like yours... That board is well capable for over 300fsb and that chip should easily hit the magic 334x9.... put the chipset at 1.6....LDT at 1.4... i have the chipset a 1.8, should i lower it? youe either at a ram limit or a power limit... hard to tell with out the answer to the ram limit question... :confused: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingfisher Posted November 10, 2006 Posted November 10, 2006 A good read would be the AMD Overclocking guide. There is a link to it under my sig. You need to understand what is happeneing before you go farther. I have no idea what your statement " and i keep upping the htt. for some reason, i CANNOT boot past 300 mhz." means. Why is your chipset votlage set to 1.8v? You really need to slow down and follow the guides step by step. Good Luck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why is your chipset votlage set to 1.8v? You really need to slow down and follow the guides step by step. Good Luck. according to most guides i read, a 1.8 chipset voltage seems to be fine and most guides recommend just leaving it there. what my statement meant was that, in my attempts to find teh max fsb my board can attain, i up the htt more and more and boot the computer up each time just to make sure it makes it into windows. at 300 htt, i boot into windows just fine, which means my mobo can work at 300 htt regardless of the ram and cpu at 301 htt or higher, i can't boot into windows and i find it strange and hard to believe that my mobo's max htt is 300 htt and it hits such an abrupt wall.

smolt Posted November 10, 2006 Posted November 10, 2006 over clocks don't happen over night. there nothing wrong with the board or the bios so just get that out of your head. So it can be clear to move forward Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
