I have those memory sticks and CPU-Z does indeed claim that they will only run at 5-5-5-15 at 400mhz, but I've had them running at 4-4-4-15 at 400mhz and 2.0v.
Really good RAM in my book.
I think you're pushing your luck with that.
I was getting the same temps with the HSF so I got my hands on a Tuniq Tower 120 and that dropped the temperature by 20 degrees.
I just can't get my motherboard to give me a higher fsb than 305mhz :S.
Ok, I've had no further joy with my overclocking.
It looks like the AB9 Pro is no where near as good at overclocking as has been claimed, or Abit have broken it in their BIOS updates.
Even with DDR2-800 Ram I cannot get the FSB to go above 305mhz on a 1:1 ratio and a 6x multiplier, which...
Ok,
I got my hands on a Tuniq Tower 120 and have that fitted.
My temperatures are much more under control now but i still cannot get a stable overclock past 2.7ghz, or 9.0x300mhz.
Does anyone know if there is a particular bios I should be using on my board or what steps I should be...
Hi, I'm new to overclocking and think I might be doing soemthing wrong with this chip.
My setup:
Core 2 Duo E4300 with stock HSF,
Abit AB9 Pro
OCZ 2x1Gb Platinum XTC
Asus ATI X1600 Pro 512Mb
Hiper Type R 530W
I'm only seeming to get to 2,7ghz with this chip when I hit 62 degrees...
