thanks a lot, i almost lost hope

I will test now for an hour and see where it goes.

BTW CPUZ reads the vcore at 1.280 although it's set for 1.300 in Bios

ok i pumped up the FSB to 425

Here is a look on my settings

here is my Prime "90 minutes"/CPU-Z/Real temp report

it was maxed at 57 But it was just a second... normally running at 52-54 Mhz

I will try like 450 MHz now.

Please help me out if u think anything needs tweaking

sounds great. plus getting new stuff for your rig is like xmas

yeah, even if it is for my wife i will play with it too, first thing she told me is DONT OVERCLOCK MY COMPUTER

And here is a screen for my temps after an hour of prime testing

and here is my cpu-z "i don't like my ram timings"

CPU-Z Validation

it did pass 2 hours on prime, but when i hit bed it was set to be tested for like 8 hours to put it in a challenge and when i woke up i found out it recovered a BSOD as i found my login screen and windows told me that pc recovered an unexpected error.

What Bios settings should i change to stabilize it. and how can i enhance the memory timings. thanks

I'm getting tired of this mobo. is "unable to overclock decent" a reason to return or rma?
The highest I got was 395x8.5 - almost 3.4ghz. Not that bad I guess, but considering what the CPU is capable of, I'm frustrated. Next I will try turning my HSF if the RAM will let me, to get more airflow on the NB HS. Though it's got a heat pipe going around the side of the cpu. Not sure what the best bet is. (NB is too hot to touch for less than a second, with volts in the low 1.3s.) There's no room for any extra cooling on the NB due to the cpu cooler.

**bluedevil** · 05-03-09

Here is my submission. I still have yet to test stabilty, but I am pretty sure its......@1.26v.

http://valid.canardpc.com/show_oc.php?id=559369

Oh and best of all.....its got a VID of 1.1125v! So I got to get me a new mobo, I think I have a 4.5ghz monster on my hands!

Should I mess with my reference voltages at all? They're on auto.

Also : I think I'm gonna downgrade to 32 bit vista..I keep getting a dumb blue screen related to 64-bit audio drivers or something... 0x00000124

your BSOD only happen at windows startup... loading taskbar?

I have same problem and I'm using vista x64

Josh81 · 05-04-09

no it happens randomly

another problem now

while doing a stress test/computer is under heavy load..my computer makes a sizzling noise...and i don't know where it is coming from

my PSU is 3 years old so it might be dying or something but idk
