Hey guys, for those of you who are experienced in overclocking this board i kinda need some advice, thanks.

Ok so I got the latest bios, Iflashed a custom one with ITK changing only:

Enabled power sloop
FSB frequency overide to 1064
Vcore to 1.35v
vdimm to 1.9

Memory to 800mhz with a 4-4-4-12 timings

So thats set, so now as i've read all I do is change the burn in host percentage to increase my FSB right? And I wan't to get to 3Ghz so as i've read from people such as eva2000(http://i4memory.com/f55/semi-officia...ard-info-2804/)

All I have to do is get to 25% burn in host to get a 333mhz fsb, so i'm asuming that It would be unwise to just set it to 25% at first, so I was thinking in increments of say 6% and then run stress test and if they pass go back and increase more.

But I set it to 6% and it didnt boot...

Did I mess up something???

Thanks for all your guy's help

can you increase your vdimm to 2.0? I would try that, and is there a way to unlink your memory from your fsb or to change dividers, your overclock may be overclocking your ram too.

I can increase my vdimm to 2.0 i will try that, and to change my dividers on my ram? you mean from 800/667/553 and so on? Its not on auto ram so it should be fine i think?

If you can lock your ram at 800 that would be good, I just wasnt sure if your ram was overclocking with your cpu, if its linked it will if you dont change the multiplier or manually set the frequency.

Humm I think your absolutly right! Thanks man cuz I just relized that would be the case - the ram is overclocking with the fsb so therfore if I increased it by 6% then my ram would be at 424mhz at a 2:3(800mhz) divider! No wonder it wouldn't boot.

Alright i'm going to set my ram to 667 divider wich would be 333mhz real. Therfore once I reach 25% it would only be at 416mhz. sweet.

Oh and there is no way to lock the ram so only ↑↑↑↑ the case. And I don't wish to change the default multiplyer.

Thanks again

No problem man, I figured it was memory related, glad we could catch the problem.
