Whats Best LDT Bus for 3200+ @ 2.8GHz

[HamidFULL]

I want to reach 2800MHz with my A64 3200+ 939 BUT I have a problem with LDT bus and LDT Ratio
If I use 280x3 then I have LDT Bus =840MHz its very low LDT bus
If I use 280x4 then I have LDT Bus =1120MHz its very high LDT bus
What I shoud do for 2800MHz?
Help for best and STABLE way

280x3 is fine.

It's not like the 3200 is starved for bandwidth. Anything over 2000 mhz is bad.

Yeah, 280x3 is perfectly good, 280x4 will most likely cause instablity. It's been shown several times that low HTT has very little performance impact.

low LDT u mean

btw, what do they stand for?

5x = useless
4x = 200 - 250 HTT
3x = 250 - 333 HTT
2x = 333+ (more likely 400+, depends on CPU) Explanation: in some rare instances when going past 333 HTT on weird 165s, i've NEEDED the 2x

LDT is the old term for HTT, LDT=Lightnight Data Transport
HTT=Hypertransport.

Tanx a lot OverClockerZ!! but I tested my A64 3200+ E6 (BPGW) with 1.55v I can reach 2750Mhz Only! I want to reach
2800Mhz or 2850Mhz!! with 1.6v I can reach 2780Mhz ,I want to use my CPU and DFI NF4 Ultra-D for 3 years How much voltage is safe? 1.55v? or 1.6v is safe or blow 1.65v is safe?!

i personally wouldnt go above 1.55 Vcore , but thats just me...

the LDT/HTT bus doesnt seem to be the problem with ur CPU not being able to reach 2.8ghz...

it must either be ur CPU's limit @ 2.75 , or another factor is effecting the overclock,such as RAM...

what are ur current RAM settings?

You won't notice the extra 50-100 MHz. Don't bother, you'll just drain the life of your processor with unneccessarily high volts and heat.

tanx guys, I use 1GB(2x512) Crucial Ballistix PC3200 Dual-CH CL2-2-2-6 1T

I'll second Seer saying the extra 50-100MHz makes a negible difference, 2750 is great .. 🙂

Overclocking is not about how much you want to reach, but how much the processor can do.
