I just installed my new 4GB of OCZ Blade LV (1066) but my BIOS is reading as my old ram... DDR2 800 at 1.9V with a multiplyer up to 5.33x (this ram should go to 6x). How do I fix this?!

Nevermind, it's now reading it as 1066. But still no 6x multiplier? Why is that?

No idea, it might be a board limitation? I'm not really familiar with AMD overclocking anymore.

I think it's my bios version.. I'll try flashing the newest one asap

Acoma_Andy

Let me know how it goes, I'm curious about your results

Just flashed the latest BIOS, but that didn't help. I did get a couple nifty new features though.

I still have one more trick I'm gonna take a shot at. Although it probably won't work

Acoma_Andy

But it's also possible to raise your FSB right? So that can increase the memory speed as well.

Yep. That's exactly what I did. I'm posting to you now at 220 x 5.33 (1174)
225 would have given me exactly 1200 but of course that didn't work

Eaither way I'm happy with the results, and I'm going to try 221 and so on to squeeze as much out of this ram as I can.

After some stability tests, I'll get back to everyone on how well this works.

EDIT:
Posting now on 221 FSB (That's 1178)

EDIT:
Posting now on 222 FPS (That's 1183)

Acoma_Andy

And if you lower the HT multi, can't you raise the FSB a bit more?

I have mine set to auto... so I'll try some stuff out.

currently 222 is the highest boot clock (That's 1183MHz)

Acoma_Andy

Yeah auto is not good
