Way to many BIOS settings

[mattwalter85]

Alright guys I have come to you in the time of need....I realize that like 90 percent of the members on here are Intel guys but pretty much all of you are overclockers(obviously) so I need your help. I really would like to get my 4800 up to 3.0Ghz but there are SOO many settings in my bios I have like no idea what most of them are for especially the memory ones and I would really appreciate any help as to informing me as to which ones are safe to change and which ones I should leave alone...not trying to melt my cpu. Below is a copy verbatim of my bios settings and what it allows me to change each one to...once again any help is realy appreciated guys.

 

I have all of the options in parantheses....i think i spelled that right..lol..oh well.

Let me start off with the idle temp(as stated in my bios)37-38C

Current Freq. 2750MHz

Vcore- 1.35v (1.30-2.075)

fsb- 220 (200-400)

multiplier- 12.5x (4x-12.5x)

DDR2 Voltage- 1.90V (1.75-2.50)

NB 1.2V- 1.30v (1.2-1.5)

NB PCI-E 1.2V- 1.30v (1.2-1.4)

SB 1.5V- 1.6v (1.5-2.0)

Hyper-Transport Voltage- 1.3v (1.2-1.35)

DDR2 Reference Voltage- -30mV (-60mV to +60mV)

K8<->NB HT Speed- Auto (1x-5x)

K8<->NB HT Width- Auto (down 8, up 8 or down 16, up 16)

NB-->SB HT Speed- Auto (1x-5x)

NB<->SB HT Width- Auto (down 8, up 8 or down 16, up 16)

PCI Express bus(PCIEXP1)- Hyperclock GPU (100Mhz-200Mhz)

PCI Express bus (PCIEXP2)- Hyperclock GPU " "

NB<->SB Reference clock- Auto (200.0-500.0)

SSE/SSE2 Instructions- Enabled

System BIOS Cacheable- Enabled

NVIDIA GPU Ex- Disabled (not sure that that is)

Init Display First- PCIEXP1

 

this is the really comfusing part for me and im not sure i should mess with it until i get my new ram(geil orange sticks) but i still wanna learn so I mise as well try on my patriot i have now i guess

RAS to RAS Delay(Trrd)- 3 clocks (2,3,4,5)

Memory Hole Remapping- enabled

Auto Optimize Bottom IO- enabled

x-[31:24] IO Space- EO

 

ok guys thats all of it. i know its alot and i dont expect you all to read it but any help would be really nice..this is just a hobbie for me but im always up for a challenge and i love learning new stuff so 3.0Ghz here we come:).

By looking at the size of the text, I would start with some corrective eye surgery or glasses to start with.

turn you ht link to 4x and your ram to 667 that will kind of set a divider and it won't shut down on you

[ir_cow]

smaller text please, and spitting out bios settings doesnt tell me anything about your computer except you have an AMD 4800+?

 

please state everything else in your system that may help to see why you cant get to 3ghz.

[mattwalter85]

haha very funny road-runner and i already have glasses..lol...here are my system specs so this will prob help

 

AMD AM2 X2 4800 @ 2.75

Zalman 9700

Abit Fatal1ty 590sli AM2

1 2GB stick of Patriot Extreme Performance DDR2 800

7950GT Ko @ 650/1850mem

1 WD 250GB Sata

alright well im at 3.1 right now and my temp is only 40C so im gonna run prime95 all night and see what happens and maybe tomorrow i'll shoot for 3.3. here is a screen shot....
