Flyguy2000 Posted September 27, 2010 Posted September 27, 2010 Might be the board but still not sure what it is? If you are still using the stock cooler you'll probably need something better like the Hyper 212 as previously suggested. I am using the stock cooler and also my board is an Antec 770-C45 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flyguy2000 Posted September 27, 2010 Posted September 27, 2010 Correction, I can get 3.45 ghz as well but it is prone to crashes I already tried cranking up the voltages and everything so do you think it is the ram or cooler (or both)?

paulktreg Posted September 27, 2010 Posted September 27, 2010 I think you mean MSI? This one? It's a budget board with limited overclocking potential but it doesn't do too badly if you read the review. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flyguy2000 Posted September 27, 2010 Posted September 27, 2010 so could my board be causing the crashing, sorry for the n00b question Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dihartnell Posted September 27, 2010 Posted September 27, 2010 Another question, since my cpu doesn't want to cooperate with any real overclocking is it just a cpu problem or board or what? Voltages, memory timings, heat. Probably not the board as such, just how your attempting the overclcock. TGHere are some real experts at AMD overclocking (Im not one of them yet) that should be able to help but they will need to know more, like mobo you are using, and your bios settings etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
IVIYTH0S Posted September 27, 2010 Posted September 27, 2010 so could my board be causing the crashing, sorry for the n00b question can you get some pictures of you bios so we can help that 945 redeem itself Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flyguy2000 Posted September 28, 2010 Posted September 28, 2010 here are some pictures from my bios Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattyamdfanboi Posted September 28, 2010 Posted September 28, 2010 first thing i can see or assume is that when u oc the cpu, u adjust the voltage of the cpu right??? what about the NB, or ram?? what kind of ram is it?? id be upping the voltage not just on the cpu..

I up the voltage on everything and I use this ram: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820211410 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattyamdfanboi Posted September 29, 2010 Posted September 29, 2010 i see.. i dunno much about that ram other than my mate telling me they are pretty much a generic type... probably not the best for overclocking... what have u set ur voltages to on everything?
