2.26ghz on amd64 3000, more?

[btbam]

I have

754 3000+
DIF ut250gb
enermax 431
6800gt
512mb patriot performance oc ram

I have the fsb set to 226, and dram set to not operate past the 200mhz freq.. (seems to allow it to be stable)

running 2.26ghz at 32c

Are there any other setting i should set in the bios? shold i try and raise the fsb more?

you should be able to hit 2400(240fsb) fairly easy with maybe a slight boost in vcore and/or ddr voltage.

im out beating a p4 3.4 on sandra benchmark by a wide margin and scoring 62,000 on aquamark 03 So im going to leave it

hmmm...
i tried boosting the Vcore to 1.66 on my setup and @ the moment, i m at best getting 230mhz FSB with a Hypertransport ratio of X3 and FSB/CPU @auto

i tried setting the FSB/CPU ratio to 1:1 but doesn't seem to work

i m tryin for a 2.45 ghz but seems unattainable...i know the CPU can do it but i do not know wat are the crucial settings to mod...

i dont think my board , dfi ut 250gb lets me go past 1.55 on vcore

Any other thoughts on this. I have the the dfi board and 3000+ also. What level can I get safely with aircooling?

There is an option under the vcore settings in the bios, it say special vcore setting (or something similar) it will give you options like 104% etc. I run mine at 1.55 and 104% it's about 1.6 volts, running my 2800+ at 2349 with 261fsb x3 htt

Have you tried any of the bios' availble on dfi-street.com? I have the 10/14 bios with the built in memtest. I have only upped the voltages for my memory to 2.9.

See signature for my rig.

I have made 2600MHz by increasing FSB and it works stable as hell in Windows. Got bluescreened and many scary click-clack sounds from the PSU when trying to enter a game. 2500MHz works fine in both Win and gaming though. Running standard 2000MHz now just to let the CPU relax and increase lifetime. Don't really need the OC at the moment anyway. So the "2600MHz" in my sig is only my record, not the speed I'm running at now. How else could I do 2-2-2-5 RAM timings and 27C CPU temp 🙂 by the way, I had to increase Vcore to 1.7 volts to boot with 2600Mhz. This voltage is normally too much for people with stock or cheap cooling. You would easily get a 65-75C under load.

Edit: Important: Do not increase FSB without locking the RAM frequency unless you have pretty powerful RAM-chips. I didn't lock them, but then again, they costed me quite a lot and can run 270Mhz+ with no noticable problems.
