Ok I have been out of the OC game for a LONG time. My Athlon XP 2400+ died so I figure it was time to upgrade but I was on a tight tight budget.
I have gotten the Sempron up to
294FSB with memory running at ~150mhz
All at stock voltage. Let it run Prime95 last night and there were no issues. I just can't go over 294FSB or it won't post. The moment I go to 295FSB, it won't post. I would like to hit at least 300FSB since I hit 294 with the CPU so easily. I also feel like i should be able to get the memory running closer to the stock 200mhz speed.
Here is what I have tried.
Raised the cpu voltage all the way to 1.65v
Raised the memory voltage and lowered the timings
I feel like I am missing something easy. Some of the new terminology is me lost also. I have read the A64 overclocking guide but not everything name wise matches up to the options I have in my biostar tforce board.
