OC advice

[Gauchito]

ok, here's my OC at this moment. It's memtest test#5 stable (30 passes) and windows stable, but I would like to max the DDR Speed. The stick I'm running is in my signature, I tried to lower to CAS 2-3-3-6-11 at 250fsb but It will stop at searching the nvidia array. Please post some advices on how to improve it.

 

Thanks,

Matias.

That's a very nice overclock on air btw.

 

You could try raising you volts on your memory?

i would like to see how that thing does in sandra multi meida and mem bandwhich to see how my mobile 2500 at 2.5 250X10 compares

[Gauchito]

It's 2.9v.

Here's a link to another post where I put a Screen of sandra's. It's post#59

Actually I'm running this setup, cause I was getting deaf:rolleyes:

[gdogg]

ok still a nice oc for a 64 anway, especially one not on the 90mm core

 

i am amazed that your mem score doesn't beat my ddr 500 on my mobile 2500+, it it very weird, in my opinion, but im a thinking the mem and cache score is where you will take me.

The stick is a 512 module OCZ Performance series PC-3200 rev3.

I'm not actually trying to get max cpu oc, I want to max OC the memory/bandwidth, but I think that this stick is actually stoping me.

hmm, makes me not feel so bad about getting the cheap kingmax ddr 500 hardcore series 2 256 sticks for 144 CAD

Ok, I've reached 245 memtest stable and windows semi-stable, because everything loads normally, but when I move the mouse or double click sandra for example, my screen freezes, goes black, and then returns to desktop with sandra executed.

Any advice on it? I've tried higher agp voltage (1.6v) and have no success at all.

I have found this error on event viewer, so I downloaded new drivers from Guru3d, but I have no luck at all.

 

Thanks in advance,

Matias.

well this does happen when overclocking for me too, when you do sandra some times this is a sign of being unstable.

 

I try setting the agp to 66

then running prime95 (newest build)

if it primes

(even just 8 hours)

your pretty safe for not crashing its still prime enough for some

 

you normally have to increase your cpu voltage

if your memory is getting maxed out this could be another cause

 

hope this helps

Thanks gdogg for the advice, I have set agp to 66-67 but there's no change at all. I think there's no more room for this stick. I think it's pretty ok for memory, now it's time to raise cpu multip.

 

Thanks,

Matias.
