cery25 Posted February 21, 2011 Posted February 21, 2011 that's because is not stable try 205 x 19,5x at 1,475 and use prime 95 to see if is stable Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
combssm Posted February 21, 2011 Posted February 21, 2011 Don't use overclock utility or whatever software addons you may have received from ASUS. Go to BIOS and put everything to stock except for raising the multiplier. You should be able to raise it up to 19.5 like the guy above said.
