Rate my OC of my 2400+ M

I can't seem to get it up to 200 mhrz and have it stable, and I am confused. I don't think it is my ram because at 200 mhrz fsb, my RAM is at 333 mhrz and 5-2-2-2 (which is what it's advertised as). Does anyone have any advice on how I should go about getting my processor higher than this? Should I raise the voltages a tad and see?


*confuzzled*

Anyway, thanks for your feeback

Wouldn't you say your OC at 2,384 GHz is pretty darn good for a 2400+ Mobile? I would be VERY satisfied with that result! That's over 3200+ speeds.

Try lowering your multiplier if you want to raise your FSB still.

What's your temps at that speed by the way, and what hsf do you use?

b+

My temps are anywhere between 100*F - 105*F idle and 118*F Load

Pretty damn good for a stock cooler

Are you running your ram in sync? Maybe your timings are too agressive...it is possible your ram is holding you back but depending upon your 2400-M your overclock might be as high as you can go.

thats pretty nice B+

I would relax the timings on your memory and try to push its speed a bit. IIRC, it is best for the FSB on an NF2 to run in sync with RAM.

agreed, don't run async on AMD

that's a A with that cooler...A chip.

You need to give volts to that memory. try 2.9 vdimm 2-3-2-9 @200 then run memtest86 test 5 if that passes try 2-2-2-9 same speed. Then if that passes start upping FSB.

all the while keeping processor speed low to eliminate it as a variable....ie set multi to 8 or so.

OK guys, I've tried a bit more tweaking and I am currently sitting at 2388ghrz (217x11), I am currently idling at 102*F and I got a max temp of 125*F. I am shooting for a possible 220x11, but who knows if I'll get it. And my volts are 1.775

Here are my questions, how much is too hot? What is a good warning for it? Since my memory is running oc'ed should I have any worries or precautions (the timings are 6.5-3-3-6 at 181 mhrz, up from 5-2-2-2 at 166mhrz, heat I don't think is an issue because I have ram sinks on them)



I am loving this chip so much, I got a 60.1 FPS on the Doom 3 timedemo.


And I really appraciate your help throughout this.


EDIT: and what's this about running my memory in sync with my chip? Help the n00b please
