As I checked my email this morning I saw that I was charged for a FEAR server I had been renting. Problem is, I canceled with them earlier this month. I contacted the company and they said I did cancel my service with them, but did not cancel my subscription with them through paypal. Supposedly...

Well, since this is an E6300 thread, i'd take the wild guess that it is the Allendale chipset ;)

I am just popping in to say I had to do this too. I was stuck in the very low 300's. I jumped up to 405 and it worked instantly. I am now running 429 FSB @ 1.3625 VCore. That comes out to 3 Ghz. I have a Zalman 9500 and at full load I hit somewhere in the low 50's and idle in either the high...

Specs: E6300 P5B Deluxe Corsair XMS 6400C4 DDR2-800 4-4-4-12 I overclocked my machine with these settings: 429 FSB 1.3625 VCore 1.55 Northbridge I ran memtest86 last night and it failed like crazy. Could it be because of me not setting my voltage? The memory was set to a 1:1...

To get a good overclock, I have had to boost the NB voltage. The cpu Vcore is only at 1.3625 while I had to bump the NB up to 1.55. If I didn't my 3dMark05 score would drop by almost 2/3's! So my question is, am I running it too high? Are others doing this? At 1.55 volts on the...

So I was overclocking my E6300 last night and thought I was doing pretty good. Ran SP2004 and it failed pretty quickly. So I dropped memtest86 on the machine and it failed at a certain spot. So I dropped the machine down to standard stock speeds and the memory is failing in the same spot. So I...

Service pack does matter. I read about it on the OCZ forums when I was first building. SP1 allowed for 4GB - but SP2 dropped it down to 3 GB.

No, a 7900GTX I have gotten the framerates up now - not sure if they are great or not, but they are almost back to where they were. Maybe a bit better. I had to up the Northbridge to 1.45 3 questions from that. Are many people doing that? Is that a safe voltage with just air...

My 3DMark05 Score was about 1/3 of what it normally is around. Could this have something do with needing to OC the Northbridge or something else?

A cool 38 degrees :)

I am in Windows right now with a successful 405 FSB Dropped the Memory down too to a 1:1 Pushed the VCore to 1.425 Problem now is that 3DMark05 is reporting a framerate at half the speed I was getting before! It seems as if it has taken a step backwards? Any ideas as to why?

I think I tried dropping down one notch (to what would be DDR2-5300), and it really didn't help at all. I'll go down to the DDR2-4300 (533) and see if that makes a difference. Any other ideas for me to try before I get home tonight?

Oh yeah, for sure. You can only access at most 3GB with SP2. SP1, you could have accessed all of it. I went with x64 Windows to get it to recognize all 4GBs and now I am not even using it!

Here is my Rig: P5B Deluxe Mobo E6300 C2D 2 x 1GB XMS 6400Pro 5-5-5-12 I am trying to overclock this bad boy and am having a pretty rough time. I have the VCore set to 1.325 FSB: 310 RAM: Running at DDR2-800 (5-5-5-18) RAM Voltage: 2.00 I *can not* get any higher than this. I am...
