IVIYTH0S Posted January 11, 2011 Posted January 11, 2011 Put the Poor chip back to stock and read this guide in it entirety. This is the guide I started off on the Phenom II 940. After reading you will have an understanding of how to overclock start to finish. If you have any questions feel free to ask. Dolks guide Edit: I'd try to keep the Max temps below 55. With the two chips I worked with that was the temp point they would start to throw themselves unstable. That guide was priceless in helping me overclock my cousin's 620 x4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nyt Posted January 11, 2011 Posted January 11, 2011 Raise the voltage 1.4375-1.45 and raise the multiplier to 20x and fsb to 200mhz and your at 4ghz . Drop your ht link and nb frequency so its close to 2000mhz . All of this depends on your ram , what frequency is your ram ? I have 2000mhz and its harder to get it to stay at 2000mhz when you overclock. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattyamdfanboi Posted January 12, 2011 Posted January 12, 2011 i never used a guide for ocing best way to learn is trail and error! hahah as for enough power.. i totally agree.. now that my . ram doesnt let me oc it even a wincy bit im back at stock clocks and its more than faster enough haha Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phreelix Posted January 12, 2011 Posted January 12, 2011 Thanks for the answers and thanks for the guide especially! I looked at the guide and am going to go up bit by bit and am sitting right now at 3.6GHz fully stable. I might try to get to 4.0GHz but will probably run it at 3.6GHz normally. Anyways, thanks for the help guys. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also should load line calibration be on or off. It is on now and I do see that the volts inside asus pc rpobe and cpuz are different then what I entered in the bios. Shoulkd I shut it off to use the volts I enter or should I not touch it since evrything is running stable?

Keep LLC on for more stability Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
abilly73 Posted January 14, 2011 Posted January 14, 2011 I am confused by the HTT. my NB is 2600 and you recommend the HTT to be close to that. The HTT is different than the HT-link 2000. On my Asus formula IV I do not see a setting to change the HTT. I believe I saw a comment that the HTT is the FSB which that shows in the bios? How do I make the HTT closer in speed to my NB. This is giving me a headache trying to understand this.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nyt Posted January 14, 2011 Posted January 14, 2011 I have a CH4 Formula , its the thing above NB Frequency if I remember correctly . It probably is HT Link . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
