Hey all I am Gas and I am kinda new (1st post). Anyways I am trying to OC my rig but I get BSOD or crashes and I dont know why that happens....usually it says attempted to write in a read only area (or something like that).

My PC is:

• Motherboard: MSI K9N-PLATINUM SLI
• CPU:AMD ATHLON 6400+ X2 Black edition (3.2 stock)
• RAM:OCZ PC2-6400 DDR2 REAPER HPC EDITION DUAL CHANNEL 2GB(800mhz Stock)(4-4-4-15 timings)
• OS: Win 7 (for now)
• Keyboard:G19
• Mouse:G5
• VGA: Asus GTX295(which I cant operate with dual GPU for a reason... it gets the drivers to crash)
• Case:Thermaltake Armor Black
• PSU: Enermax Galaxy 850 Watt
• HD: 2 WD(1x160GB,1x320GB)

So anyone has any suggestions on how to overclock it?

I am working on that: http://www.overclock.net/amd-general...ocket-am2.html

But I cant understand....when I set 5x multiplier and FSB 230 it works...when I go back and set X16 and FSB 203 it crashes....

What's your voltage at? Is it on Auto? Have you tried resetting your CMOS so you go back to defaults in the BIOS and then try overclocking from a starting point again. What's the exact BSOD error you get?

I managed to get it to 3.312 Mhz. 207 FSB...16x Multiplier...CPU Volts:1.40. But its unstable if I go further...


CPU temps are low..


And usually I get attempt to write in non paged area..or something like that.... Any solutions on how to OC it more than 130 Mhz?

Your thread title says "diamond" but your first post listed "platinum". Seriously which board do you have? Please double check.

First of all, welcome. But cutting to the chase, am i right to assume that you have a 90nm windsor core? If so, these processors r kinda tough to overclock in my opinion. I had a 4600+ and that thing would not go past 2.9ghz without having excessive amounts of voltage. But i can tell you right now that 1.4 volts might not be enough to overclock you cpu any further. From all the overclocking i have done with 90nm's my safezone is around 1.5V MAX. So if your temps r decent, up the voltage and see where you go. Keep in mind the HT link and ram arent being overclocked excessively.

Good Luck,
S1L3Nt

Ok...so I should set the volts to 1.5 and start pushing the FSB with 16x Multiplier to see when its going to crash?

Gasketse

If speedfan is right...I am hot.....57C....in Everest is right...I am cool 44C...anyway.4.5Volts....208 FSB...BSOD on 210 for memory managment


EDIT: Crashed as well on 208 FSB....Just Freeze.Back to 207 with 4.0V. W_T_F is wrong? It can go to 228 FSB with x5 Multiplier....so its not the MB.....the memory timings are how they supposed to be 4-4-4-15 with 2.1V. So whats wrong?

I hope it's a typo...otherwise OMG!
