    How can these RAM timings be possible?

    hi and thanx for the reply. i realise that most ram can be OCd to better than advertised specs but its just that the tRAS and tRC on mine seem to be superclocked: tRAS was 12 and is now 4! tRC was 22 and is now 10! and the thing is i have even managed to get the MHz up to 820MHz for 800 when...

    How can these RAM timings be possible?

    max volts for E6750?

    Hi, just downloaded and ran Speedfan - 46c max with 2 instances of orthos whilst clocking 3.6GHz @ 1.485v also ran coretemp and pc probe with similar temps displayed (45c, and 44c respectively) ambient room temp is about 25c and no my PC is nowhere near any AC of any sorts.

    TAT crashes -- which temp program do I trust?

    lol, ur not the only one with TAT issues - i gte the same error message when i try to run it. i use coretemp and pc probe II for my temps and there is usually a big difference between the two (10c) except for now when im running orthos x2 and both are reading within 1c of each other.

    max volts for E6750?

    yeah i kinda guessed that but you never know... just to update... i upped the volts to 1.5 and clocked @3.6GHz and im now running 2 x orthos "Small FFTs - stress cpu" and temps are as follows: Coretemp 46c PC Probe 44c

    max volts for E6750?

    ok thanks for the info guys - i will try to answer all your questions now... Yoxxy thanks for the volts info - i guess i'll try 3.6GHz at 1.5v and if that doesnt do it then i'l leave it at 3.5GHz SerpentRoyal do you mean i should run both prime95 and orthos at the same time to load the...

    max volts for E6750?

    hi, nope not on water - i run two apps (as listed in the orignal post) to meaure temp - Coretemp and Asus PCPrbe II PCProbe gives much higher reading than Coretemp and those are the temps I listed in OP i did try running TAT but it just gives an error messgae whenever i try running it... i...

    max volts for E6750?

    Hi all, long time since ive posted on here but as ive just upgraded and getting back into the OCing scene thought it revisit for some advice. So i just go myself a new mobo (Asus P5NE-SLI), E6750 and 4gb of Corsair CM2X1024-6400. So far ive been running the cpu @3.5GHz on 1.456v and its...

    why increase CPU voltage when OCing?

    so why is it that i have to increase the CPU voltage when i OC? i am running my Venice 64 3500+ @ 2.53G - with 1.47V... it has been running fine using superpi and temp never got above 46C. mobo is Asus A8N-SLI. im leaving the RAM alone for the moment as i tried it before and it cracked the...

    read zebo's guide to oc'ing but still confused on some parts

    no offense taken. HTT in the A8N-SLI bios seems to be called CPU Frequency and like you said is set to default of 200mhz. in regards to overclocking, when i increase the CPU frequency it changes the speed of my RAM and then the RAM starts failing during MemTest. if i knock the RAM back to 333...
