thanks for the reply. Any other suggestions?

you wont get anywhere with vcore set to auto. Set it to 1.475v or 1.5v

Turn off all energy saving features, LLC and disable spread spectrums.

there is a guide to phenom's that you should read. to get to 3.70 you will need to go with that high of a voltage but please do not do it all at once. step the chip up from factory a mulitiplier of one at (15-16) and run Prime95 or occt to test it. rinse repeat until it bsod's before the stability test is over. Oh and just make sure that you don't go over 60c. That chip does not like that.

 

Here is dolks guide to overclocking phemon II's, read it.

+1 on dolks guide, not that I had ANY luck on my dad's 940 but it was still a good read.

another +1 on all OCability getting flushed down the drain once the phenom II's enter the 55C-60C range. (it's good thing they run pretty cool most of the time)

@Skugpezz

Thank you to all of your time replying to my post. I was only able to get it stable at 3.6 GHz! But I guess it's okay. AMD just released the 980 BE @ 3.7 GHz stock! But I doubt it's any faster than a core i7 920 at 2.66 GHz or a stock cpu before Sandy-Bridge.

 

I love this forum. I love this site. I love the community.

 

 

 

I am currently playing Total War: Shogun 2. Running it using 6870 in X-fiyaaa! on ultra settings running at 59-74 fps. Not bad.
