ok, I've overcome some technicalities and believe I'm ready to do some serious overclocking. The components of my system are listed in my signature. Here is the list of the 'extreme overclocking' tab of my bios
AI Tuning - Manual
System Clocks
-----PCIEx16_1 Freq (100)
-----PCIEx16_2 Freq (100)
-----PCIEx16_3 Freq (100)
FSB & Mem config
---FSB Mem clock mode = Linked
---FSB Mem ratio = 3:2
---FSB (QDR) Mhz = 1350
---Actual mem mhz = 900
Overclocking
---CPU Multiplier = x9
---Memory Timing Settings = All set to 'auto'
---Spread Spectrum
------PCIE Spread Spectrum = Auto
------MCP PCIE Spread Spectrum = Auto
------SATA Spread Spectrum = Disabled
------LDT Spread Spectrum = Auto
---CPU Internal Thermal Control = Disabled
---Limit CPUID Max Val = Disabled
---Enhanced C1 (EC1) = Disabled
---Execute Disable Bit = Enabled
---Virtualization Tech = Enabled
---Enhanced Intel Speed Step = Disabled
---LDT Freq = x5
Over Voltage
---All voltages set to 'Auto'
SLI Broadcast Aperture = Disabled
Nvidia GPU Ex = Disabled
SLI Ready Memory = Disabled
I'd like to get a good, stable overclock of 3.2-3.4ghz if possible. Tips, comments, suggestions are certainly appreciated. For example: I have two BFG 8800 GT video cards. Should I enable the Nvidia GPU Ex feature? My memory is crucial ballistix, BL2KIT12864AA804 - 2GB kit (1GBx2), Ballistix 240-pin DIMM , DDR2 PC2-6400 from Crucial.com which claim to be 'sli ready' but when I enabled that with my old bios the machine wouldn't even post. Should I bother trying again now that I have a new bios chip? Is it worth screwing with?
Thanks
