OCZ overclock and 1T/divider issue

[mmganga]

Hi, I am trying to overclock this Opteron 165 CPU on a Lanparty NF4 with 2 Gb of OCZ PC-4000 gold EL RAM (2 piece).

So far I have 300 FSB, 9 multiplier, 5/6 divider for RAM, 1.45 V for CPU voltage.

This way the RAM runs at 2T timings, I tried setting it to 1T and the system does not boot (I get no video) or it continuously beeps long (RAM issue?).

Does anybody know what might be going on?

Many thanks!

what is the speed rating on the ram?

pc4000? pc4400? etc...

EL? Plat? VX?

what?

Ok, I got this going, it was actually in the wrong slots (I had it in two adjacent slots, whereas it wanted to be in the motherboard's orange slots).

Yup, Orange slots always on DFI boards

How about if I wanted to have 4 Gig of RAM by using 4 1Gb sticks? Therefore all slots have to be used, would that work?

Would the timings go to 2T when using 4 sicks?

THANKS!

With 4 sticks, most motherboards will default to DDR333, CL3 and 2T.
