I have recently bought my athlon 64 system with intention to overclock it. Every thing runs fine except for a few glitches. the first and most annoying is the fact that as soon as i set my memory (OCZ 3700 DDR466) to 206MHZ< it resets computer sporadically, or freezes up, and fails prime 95 in 2 min. I ran memtest 86 for night at 226Mhz ram and it passed without errors. When i slow down my memory to 185Mhz i can easily set my HTT to 285+ and prime runs smoothly without errors, but as soon as i start game like ut2004, hl2 or doom3 or run 3dmark it freezes with error " VPU has recovered with Blah Blah Blah". I saw this problem in other thread and it was memory related, but mine seems to be fine according to memtest86.
Athlon 64 3000+ winnie 278x9 @ 2.5, memory 206Mhz-ish
My bios is as follows: A8V Delux rev2 1009.. HT 4x, mem 2.5,4,4,7; fastwrite
isabled, pci/agp 33/66; Vddr at 2.7 ( as soon as i set it to 2.8 when mem is below 206Mhz it doesn't post)
to recap the problems are:
HTT285+ ok except for games and futuremark benchmarks fail
memory set to 206+ computer resets or freezes even at HTT 210Mhz (2:1 mem ratio)
