Hemidare Posted March 20, 2008 Posted March 20, 2008 Ok i have what is in my sig and am trying to figure out all of my settings in the bios. Now my problem is all of my monitoring software is reading my FSB wrong and my OC wrong. So i dont know what i am at and the Computer doesnt seem to either. Not a good situation. Why is this it is a fresh install as of today actually. Is this board just a piece of crap or what? CPU-Z the latest keeps on switching back and forth from 6x multiplier to 8-9x mulitiplier. Anyone else have this problem? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wevsspot Posted March 20, 2008 Posted March 20, 2008 Hemi, Is the BIOS reading the correct FSB / CPU Speed / Memory Speed / Voltage settings correctly? What type of monitoring software are you using? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Praz Posted March 20, 2008 Posted March 20, 2008 CPU-Z the latest keeps on switching back and forth from 6x multiplier to 8-9x mulitiplier. Turn off C1E. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wevsspot Posted March 20, 2008 Posted March 20, 2008 Good point, but C1E has worked fantastic on the last few socket775 builds I've done, even heavily overclocked. But excellent point about what is causing the cpu multiplier fluctuation. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Praz Posted March 20, 2008 Posted March 20, 2008 C1E does work well. I run it all the time. It's on now at 4.0GHz. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hemidare Posted March 20, 2008 Posted March 20, 2008 also coretemp the latest is telling me the wrong fsb and mulitplier. But now that i have it at 2.9 ghz and the multi @ 9 everthing is reading right? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hemidare Posted March 20, 2008 Posted March 20, 2008 Ok so since i am totally out of my element here as far as OC'ing this motherboard and cpu and memory for that matter. Is there anywhere that has a good explanation of all the settings i am scared of in my bios? Now i know i am using a stock cooler so i am not expecting much of an OC right now maybe 3ghz maybe. Is that asking to much or should i put my sights lower. I had my rig priming @ 2.9 but it was getting into the mid 70's and was getting to hot for comfort. That was after 1.5 hours. It seemed to be going fine after i shut the orthos down i run Aquamark 2003 and it crashed immediatley. So i have backed my OC down to 2.8 and will prime that and see how it goes. What do you guys suggest? Update my temps are peaking at about 71 71 71 70 According to coretemp. Is that on the ragged edge of what is acceptable? This is priming at 2.8 This is a screen shot of my temps on coretemp and ite smart guardian Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpeedEuphoria Posted March 20, 2008 Posted March 20, 2008 did you use the stock thermal stuff? or replace it with AS5?. I read that stock has too much and can cause higher temps. When OC'ing if the computer(cpu/mem) aren't stable you can get some weird readings from software monitoring progs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hemidare Posted March 20, 2008 Posted March 20, 2008 No i didnt even try the stock stuff. Just use AS5 and i put the right amount on because if you put to much it doesnt like it much. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
