    Donot cut CPU Burn-in in middle of test

    ok my bad, i ran cpu burn-in for only about 15 minutes and then i would quit myself and started having problems. For the sake of it i ran it again for 1 hour 45 minutes, let it complete the test, and ran prime95 for 2 hours. look like it is back to normal, will continue testing prime95 for 24...

    Donot cut CPU Burn-in in middle of test

    well, i ran prime95 for 12 hours like usual and been using my rig for over a week overclocked without no problems. The moment i used CPU Burn-in i started having problems, checked prime95 and it is having errors on the first minutes, i underclocked the fsb back to 220 and checked prime95 and...

    Donot cut CPU Burn-in in middle of test

    :( I tried the utility CPu Burn-in at http://users.bigpond.net.au/cpuburn/ . My rig was stable at 240 fbs 11 multipler with 1.55V, now i dont seem to be able to pass prime95 even with 1.65V. Also i noticed that even tho i set my voltage for 1.55, it is been supplied with 1.58-1.59V. Tried...

    everything good thanks to the helping hands of you guys

    it worked, thansk a bunch man, i am running stable @ 240 multiplier 11, memory 1:1 by using 1.6V to vcore. Was able to lower my memory to 2.5-4-4-8. Going to try and lower it more later.

    everything good thanks to the helping hands of you guys

    good idea, i am pretty sure at 240 1:1 memory will give me more and at the same time i can have really nice stable 2.6GHz. All the ignredients for an nice performance boost.

    running at fsb 260, multiplier 10, memory at 2.6V 3-4-4-8 1T, memory divider 166Mhz, running prime95 while at work, lets see what happens, looks like the limit would be 260 fsb with mutiplier 10.

    everything good thanks to the helping hands of you guys

    well, i set it up to 1.6V to cpu, memory at 166Mhz divider, Right now got the FSB at 263. So the cpu is now 2634.98 MHz with memory at 218 MHz..... just ran prime 95 for a couple of minutes to see if i had it wrong, plan on running 12 hours tonight. It looks like at 264 prime 95 on small...

    A64 3500+ OC Help - I must be missing something obvious

    lhmm hyper x from kingston is usually good, but if you are able to boot by setting a memory divider, looks like the problem is the memory. Someone correct me if i am wrong, but looks like you memory doesnt like running at anything higher that 200MHz. Check the voltage, it might be low for the...

    for me, screw the silence, let there be noise, i play the games loud enough anyways, so running the fans at max speed thru the radiator is no problem:D I am trying to get the best performance, maybe i will try and squeeze some more voltage into cpu, about .025 at a time until i get past...

    11x250=2750 => Oh, oh... ??? is this bad??? also my current voltage is 2.7V for 3-4-4-8 1T memory, this is hyper X kingston DDR500, those are the stock timmings, i wonder how can i adjust them to squeeze more performance out of the ram. I am pretty sure this ram can stand a higher...

    everything good thanks to the helping hands of you guys

    :confused: ok now i wonder: what would yield more performance: multiplier 8 X 312 fsb multiplier 9 X 278 fsb multiplier 10 X 250 fsb i wonder if i could go multiplier 11 X fsb 250, cant wait to go home to try and see, stuck at work now.

    everything good thanks to the helping hands of you guys

    yeah, i guess you are right. I would think that because it is 2.2GHz stock, it could hit a little bit more

    AMD 64 3500+ wont go over 200 frequency??

    :) so far i am using 1:! memory divider, running at fsb 250 1.5V, ram volt 2.6, multiplier at 10 and everything stable. I ran prime 95 for 6 hours in blend test, then i played starwars galaxies for another 3 hours and a half and downloaded some stuff. Evrything seems good. Except when i connect...

    Am I missing something with brand new AMD64? Won't go past 219!

    :) may or may not be your case, but my giga-byte sli mobo has a problem form factory in which you cannot overclock from the BIOS itself over 214Mhz, the only way i am able to overclock is thru windows using an utility. Even downloaded the lastest bios, even beta bioses, then i read on a site...

    AMD 64 3500+ wont go over 200 frequency??

    ok so i kept on reading. apparently this board has problems with the BIOS itself, the only way to overclokcing is thru windows using easytune 5. So far got a fsb 250, with 1.5 voltage, 2.7V going to ram. Ran it for 6 hours on Prime95 blendtest and no errors, so i looks good, the only problem is...

    AMD 64 3500+ wont go over 200 frequency??

    so what do you know, it got resetted at BIOS to fsb 210, so i checked multiplier 11, voltage 1.4 at 210 fsb for now. hmmmm.....going to try some more after some hours of sleep, had a long day a work, maybe once i get some rest something pops in my head, but thanks for the help so far, it feels...

    AMD 64 3500+ wont go over 200 frequency??

    ouch, i specified 1.425V in clockgen, but cpu-id says i have 1.634V on processor? any idea why this discrepancy? i when ahead and tried to use easytune to change the voltage to 1.45V and cpu-id reads good, ran prime95 for 10 minutes no problems in blend, 5 minutes in small fft and no problems...

    AMD 64 3500+ wont go over 200 frequency??

    i was trying all those changes in bios straight, no joy. Tried upping the voltage to 1.475v and no luck...the only time it boots is when i have a multiplier of 10, fsb 210 voltage 1.4V (trying to keep voltage low until i really need to up it). I am starting to think is something wrong with BIOS...

    AMD 64 3500+ wont go over 200 frequency??

    thank you all for the replies, i was thinking that too. I will go ahead and just use 2 sticks and hold on the other ones for another rig i may setup or sell them on ebay. I hurts that the ram being new and cant use all 4, but i really want to get this cracking.
