Propane Posted July 23, 2007 Posted July 23, 2007 So, Ive been working on getting my OC going for FW and it seems like I hit a pleatu at 300x9 at stock voltage. When I got to 333x9, my pi time drops but my 3dmarks et cetra drop. Then, when I go to 400x9 at 1.425v it seems to be game over as all my scores drop. What could be causing this? Settings - 300FSB, 798RAM, 1.3500 volts 333FSB, 833RAM, 1.3500 volts 400FSB, 800RAM, 1.425 volts Its rather agravating, but I suppose there is some reason this is happening that I am overlooking.

Bleeble Posted July 23, 2007 Posted July 23, 2007 Are you changing your memory timings? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Propane Posted July 23, 2007 Posted July 23, 2007 I'm keeping them as close to 800 as I can... Now, my high scoring 300x9 798ram wont even preform well, only stock... its really wild, and I have no idea whats going on Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bleeble Posted July 23, 2007 Posted July 23, 2007 No, I meant timings. Like 5-5-5-15. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Propane Posted July 23, 2007 Posted July 23, 2007 No, since the clock is so close to stock, I didnt see a need for it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
road-runner Posted July 23, 2007 Posted July 23, 2007 Could it be the strap changing on the motherboard? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Propane Posted July 23, 2007 Posted July 23, 2007 Could it be the strap changing on the motherboard? Heh, thats something new to me... care to explain a little more? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
road-runner Posted July 23, 2007 Posted July 23, 2007 I am not sure exactly how to explain it but it is like the memory setting or performance level (a memory timing) that changes automatically as you OC higher. Its the TRD setting on the Gigabyte P35. At stock speed it will be on 8 and OC it will be on 11 or 12 but you can change that with memset 3.3 beta 2 its called performance level in it. You can change that in memset if you go to low it will lock up the machine. I made a post about here Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Propane Posted July 23, 2007 Posted July 23, 2007 So higher number yields lower preformance? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
road-runner Posted July 23, 2007 Posted July 23, 2007 (edited) So higher yields lower preformance? Yes and 7 makes my 965DS3 lock up but I can run 7 on the P35, you will have to play with it it makes a little difference in superpi but its very little in 1m Not higher lower numbers are better performance. I read it wrong or something... Edited July 27, 2007 by road-runner Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Propane Posted July 23, 2007 Posted July 23, 2007 Do you have a working download for memset3.3? You link on the other page is broken and I cannot seem to find much on google (although my search was short - I thought Id see if you could upload a zip first) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
road-runner Posted July 23, 2007 Posted July 23, 2007 (edited) Yes here you go.... Edited July 23, 2007 by road-runner Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
