Now that you have set it to manual you can start to overclock!

Overclocking (Set all this settings where you find them):
FSB 1423
Vcore 1.5v
HT & NB 1.48v
SB 1.58v

Then you will get 3.2ghz stable! Atleast I did

If its not stable try to add 0.1v to the vcore at the time untill you get it stable

Also if you see in CPU-Z and notice that your cpu isnt running at 3.2ghz, well that is because of the Intel C1E bios setting! If you disable this in the bios your cpu will run at 3.2ghz all the time. What it actually does is to lower your cpu speed when its not in so mutch use to save energy, but I like to have it off, but that is really up to you

"I've run into some problems though, I tried overclocking with the settings above, and actually with many manual settings, the thing is that when I select 'save settings and exit' and it boots up, I press TAB and it just shows the default 2.4GHz."

"... when I go back in the bios (which is the latest version 8.02?) my voltages and everything else I set are there, but the FSB is set to AUTO!"

"HELP PLEASE!"

I know this is a noobie question but I was looking around on the air cooling forums and I see all this talk about lapping. *** is that?

"Google is your friend."

LAPPING!

Ok I read that wiki and most of it had nothing to do with cpu's, I'm a chemist and I have no idea what any of it meant. Seems like they are talking about grinding the heatsink into the cpu.

"All lapping is is polishing the CPU top or the Heatsink to a mirror finish. This removes any bumps or grooves and provides a smooth surface for the heat to transfer off the CPU (assuming you have thermal paste on there as well)."

Thanks, now wasn't that easier then linking to wiki?

As for your problem, that happened to me a few times except that my settings were reset as well. It did it when I failed to post, it would reboot and go back to the default settings. Perhaps something went wrong in your bios update?

about your problem, thats happened to many P5N-D owners, what I did was to save the settings on to a profile, the set everything to stock, reboot, load settings and save and exit. Worked for me! If this doesnt work try to reset your bios by pulling out the battery for a min.

Hope you make it

I just cleaned up my case, moved some things a round and my temps have gone down. I'm wondering what test in Prime95 is best for getting your max load temp. In the program it says that the Large fft tests are supposed to be maximum heat, but my load temps with the small fft's are 10c higher then the large one. The blend and large fft tests dont put my load temps over 46c, but the small fft's drive it up to around 55.

small fft`s is what everyone use to test, kinda weird, but thats how it is

So thats a better test than blend? Doesnt the blend test do everything?
