I've got a Gigabyte GA-K8N Ultra 9 board, a Venice 3200+ and 2x Kingston HyperX 1Gb pc3200 modules.
At stock speeds everything is great but.....
When I oc the cpu as much as 10Mhz My system will not boot anymore, It just sits there in the bios screen, waiting and rebooting.
Tried the F6 bios, upgraded to F7, tried F2 and F3 as well and no difference in te result at all.
The heatsink for the nforce is getting warm but not fingerburning warm. The CPU gets up to 37degrees celcius max when oc'd at 2400Mhz.
I've tried lowering the HTT multiplier, upping the vcore, upping the ram voltage, upping the htt voltage and nothing helps.
If I boot into XP at stock speed and I use Easytune I can get the cpu up to 240Mhz fsb reasonably stable but it needs 1.65v for that and the ram then runs at approx 180Mhz, the HTT multiplier is 4.
Is this a lame cpu when it comes to ocing or could it be my Mainboard?
Ths PSU is allright, I oc'd a Sempron64 2800+ to 2900Mhz stable with it.
