Hi all, I recently bought a new system built around an Asus A8N-E motherboard and Venice 3200+ CPU. I'm now trying to overclock the system, but I've run into some issues, which I'm wondering if anyone else has run into.
here's my setup:
A8N-E (1005 bios)
Venice 3200+ CPu
2X512 RAM (Crucial + Ultra Value ram)
Enermax Noisetaker 425W 24Pin PSU
Overclock: CPU 270 (HTT) x 10 @ 1.45V, Mem 180Mhz, Cas 2.5, 2.6V, 2/3 (266mhz) divider
- i've tested for 2-3 hours in Prime95 at these setting
here's the issue(s)
- System will not post if I set my memory to run at Cas 3, but it does beep once every two seconds or so. I believe it's trying to tell me there's a memory error.
- I get random freezes, in normal windows activity that require a reboot, this happens every so often but generally not daily.
If I could lower my memory timings, I think this could help me with my stability problems. I'd apperciate any advice on what I can do to improve the situation. I realize I'm running two mismatched memory sticks, so maybe that's the issue. That aside, has anyone been able to use this mobo at CAS 3?
