I think I am finally stable after several weeks of tweaking and running SP, OCCT, etc. and rebooting etc. . I upgraded from 1GB DDR466(OC running @ 250FSB 1:1 with the CPU @ 2250) to 2GB and was hoping it could at least hit around DDR520 with the new memory but could never get it stable beyond about DDR510 @ 1:1.
So I decided if I can't hit 260FSB and keep it at 1:1, I'll just see how far I can take it and just use a divider to. So finaly overnight I got over 12 hours at 285FB using 183Mhz divider which puts my ram at DDR513 at stock 3-4-3-8 timings. Even though these are Samsung UCCC and they say they don't like volts I have mine at 2.85 as that seems to be the only thing they like over DDR500. Get random missing corrupt file error going into windows with anything less.
I had to go up to STARTUP (1.4v) +10% from 5% for Vcore so that puts me flutterring between 1.54 & 1.58. Load temps are around 50 to 53 and I idle around 30-33. I just put Artic Silver 5 on yesterday so hopefully they will come down after it cures.
I didn't think it was two bad to go from 2250 (around 50C load) with stock heatsink/fan to 2565 and only add a few degrees. I wouldn't have tried this before I got my new heatsink which brought it down 3 to 5 degrees.
Anyway, not too bad getting 2.565Ghz from a 1.8Ghz CPU.
My wife has been ready to kill me as that is all I have been doing for the last several weeks. Only think that kept me sane while I am unemployed. Now I don't know what I am going to do with myself.
