I just built the following
Antec p180
Antec NeoHE 550w
Abit AB9 (Intel p965)
e6300
2gb (1gb x 2) Crucial Ballistix pc6400 (ddr2 800mhz)
AMD x1900 GT
X-FI
There are a lot of interesting posts here in the forum, esspecially one about 1:1 vs 4:5. I need some help putting it all together though for a solid OC.
Currently I am running at 4:5 with a 380mhz fsb - ddr2 950mhz (with 5 5 5 15 timings - default 2.2 v on ram) which would be 2.66 Ghz. Very cool that it was that easy so far but I would like to push it a little further if possible. What I do know is that it seems memtest fails if I set the mem clock up to 1000 at those timings (to test this I set this I changed it to 2:3 fsb/mem just so that I could isolate mem from FSB limitation - is this even a valid test???)
So are my options to loosen timing even more? Or should I crank up the voltage to the ram? I am assuming I want to keep it at 4:5 from the other forum post, correct? Or would I want to go 1:1 and see if I can get the CPU much higher?
Some other bios questions -
What is -
N/B Strap CPU As
As for voltage, I am not sure what these options are either -
- MCH 1.25V Voltage
- ICHIO 1.5V Voltage
Thanks in advance for your time!
