    Cant run 1 : 1 ...

    voltage on memory is 2.8 volts, wich sadly enough is the limit of the board... Timings are when running a divider 2.5-3-3-10 1T But when raising the FSB i make them stock 3-4-4-8 ...still no luck, could it be the memory controller on the motherboard?

    Cant run 1 : 1 ...

    I am supposed to have pc4000 memory but i cant even run 1 : 1 with an FSB of 220 without failing memtest/prime95...(multiplier down to 6, so just to check RAM) Im not the only one with this problem so it seems, is it the Motherboard maybe? I heard the Asus A8V deluxe has some undervolting...

    AMD 64 3500+ wont go over 200 frequency??

    what multiplier? the winchester 3500 is supposed to be a really good oclock chip... Isnt there a "apply at startup" option in easytune? What memory divider are u using? 1:1 ? just wondering...having problems using 1 : 1 myself...altough the memory should be able to run that speed stock...

    AMD 64 3500+ wont go over 200 frequency??

    amd64 3500 "clawhammer" ...didnt know they made those,,u sure it isnt newcastle or winchester?.. if its a newcastle...1.5 or 1.55 volts isnt all too high to use...maybe even 1.6V ..providing your temps dont go flying up (never mind,..watercooling)...(ive had mine as high as 1.7, only to run 1...

    AMD 64 3500+ wont go over 200 frequency??

    (whoops...big delete ....i see u have ddr500 memory....) Set the multiplier to 10 then up the FSB... u should be able to go to FSB 250 no problems...at FSB 250 u will run a CPU/Mem of 1 : 1 ..which is perfect... u might have to up the voltage on your processor (a little).. have u tried...

    Can "twisting"(carefully) the heatsink of the proc..cause any damage to the proc?

    suppose the heatsink is pretty well fixed on the processor...is gently twisting the cooler a bad idea? I thought not, but i heard that twisting the heatsink, can bend or even break the pins of the processor?

    yes indeed i have..my scores are much lower when memory set on 2 : 1 with multi 10 and FSB 250 .... Its bugging me lol...could it be a bad bios flash or something?? According to a program ("A64 Tweaker") with memory set on AUTO, im running memclock 166 > which im pretty sure of, is...

    How long to run memtest86?

    How long do you usually use your computer? Such tests i use for an hour or so...i think the chances of errors decrease the longer the test is running... Some people say 24 hours....i mean whatever u want...No errors after 30 min? ... again...chances of errors decrease when time expires...

    My benchscores drop when using 2 : 1 mem (1 : 1) Asus A8V deluxe

    Well its like this > 2 : 1 is actually 1 : 1,(on my mobo), u know that, just wanted to make sure you know i do as well... Using the A64 Tweaker, when mem set on auto, it says: mem clk Frequency > 166..Which is divided... So strange thing is (and all people whit the same mobo as I use 2 : 1...

    HELP! Newbie killed his computer!

    PFff...resetting Cmos aint Sh*t lol... The only way you could really kill a componant is by upping the voltage too much.... Well that and let it run too hot, but if your temps are good now, the only way to increase your temps is by upping voltage... Just be carefull with Volts, and you...

    My benchscores drop when using 2 : 1 mem (1 : 1) Asus A8V deluxe

    I cant figure this out: Look at sig When i use "auto" on the mem timing, instead of "limit 2 : 1 ddr400" with a FSB of 250, my scores are way higher when benching. But my scores should be higher with 2 : 1 ddr400 > which with a FSB of 250 should make my memory run at 500mhz, (1 : 1)...On...

    strange thing:

    look at sig Here's the thing...When i set my memory to 2 : 1 ddr 400 (which is fact is 1 : 1) with a FSB 250, i should get better bench scores then when setting the memory on auto? right? (divider is used on auto i think...A64 tweaker says mem clk 166 when on auto) But the scores drop...
