I am using a Neo2 Plat 939 board to OC my AMD Dual Core 3800+. The native dual 2000 MHz chip has no problem reaching 2300 or 2400 MHz with stock cooler on just a bit more voltage and I am VERY happy with this. What blows my mind though is that I recently noted that if I OC 2300 and up (so 10X230 to 10X240) I note that on a black background on my 21" CRT monitor I get something I can only describe as "waves". It is totally not noticeable and only with a black background and even so very little. I can play games all day and run tests all day. If I scale down to 2200 then it goes away. It almost looks like "interference" from say older speakers... that is the only way I can explain it. My bud suggested to up the voltage or that possibly my Antec 380w power supply that came with my Sonata case is having issues keeping up. Is this a power issue or a stability issue? Is it an indication that the PS is not pumping enough power when you get this type if ?interference? on the monitor? again it?s not corruption and it runs stable for days.. actually has not crashed as of yet.
Please note that I did lock my AGP clock to 67 and am running my RAM at a calcuated 200Mhz (low timings) or lower as my crap PC3200 wont do anything more.
thanks
