punkishbloke Posted August 27, 2010 Posted August 27, 2010 I cant reach 4ghz on my new phenom 555 c3 i seem to get stuck at 3.8ghz with a vcore of 1.45v. after that it doesnt seem to matter how i overclock it or how many volts i put through it, i just get the bsod.

Ryu Hayabusa Posted August 27, 2010 Posted August 27, 2010 Do you have any of the disabled cores unlocked? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
punkishbloke Posted August 27, 2010 Posted August 27, 2010 Do you have any of the disabled cores unlocked? no unfortunatly i have an old nvidia 750a chipset with no nvcc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryu Hayabusa Posted August 27, 2010 Posted August 27, 2010 Well hell, there goes my idea. I know i had issues w/ mine when it was unlocked. At stock settings it worked fine, but just a small bump started getting BSODs and glitching. So i locked the cores and no more issues.

Ryu Hayabusa Posted August 27, 2010 Posted August 27, 2010 Wait, your the one that had to Southern engineer a fix for a broken pin weren't you? That could be causing some issue. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That could be causing some issue. yeah i am indeed but i shouldnt think that its had an effect (atleast i hope) there is a solid connection on the broken pin.

Ryu Hayabusa Posted August 27, 2010 Posted August 27, 2010 yeah i am indeed but i shouldnt think that its had an effect (atleast i hope) there is a solid connection on the broken pin. Just thinking out loud. It may seem like a solid connections but its still not the same as the original and may not be able to withstand the voltage/current needed. but, i also don't see 1 pin holding you back that much.

But this doesnt crash my system everything runs fine after i dismiss it hmmm nothings ever easy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

IVIYTH0S Posted August 28, 2010 Posted August 28, 2010 are you overclocking strictly from the multiplier?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bizzlenitch Posted August 28, 2010 Posted August 28, 2010 All chips have a ceiling. It's possible you've reach your chips'. Granted, I know next to nothing about overclocking AMD systems, but just a thought. 3.8GHz is nothing to scoff at, though, by any means.

punkishbloke Posted August 28, 2010 Posted August 28, 2010 are you overclocking strictly from the multiplier?? no ive tryed the bus speed as well i took it to 3.8ghz with the multi and uped the bus speed to take it to 3.9 and 4 i cant get either stable even with droping the ram frequency should i try lowering the multi and uping the bus speed? any ideas would be greatly appreciated maybe adjusting the north or south bridge i dont know ive never done it before. oh yeah and i figured out the "bccode 9c" thats not an issue any more. + ive seen a guy who has a 555 on my board stable at 4ghz but was a very old post on a random forum so couldnt find anything out.
