Hi! you need to raise the volts to! I run mine with 1.54vcore, nb & sb 1.48v, and the ht 1.58v.. you can try this settings, EXCEPT from the vcore! If you can tell me what your standard vcore is at, then I will be able to tell you more precise!

Any idea on overclocking setting for the P5n-d with a e2200. Here is the rig I just put together:



ASUS P5N-D
Intel Pentium E2200 Allendale 2.2GHz Model BX80557E2200
Rosewill RCX-Z775-SL 92mm 2 Ball CPU Cooler
CORSAIR Dominator 2GB DDR2 1066 - TWIN2X2048-8500C5D
BFG Tech BFGE85256GTE GeForce 8500 GT 256MB
ASUS EN8500GT GeForce 8500 GT 256MB
Antec TX640 Case
Thermaltake 500w PS

what is the stock vcore on your e2200??

Ok I am trying to Overclock my Q6600 to 3.2 (4x800) I tried

Vcore 1.4375
NB 1.62
HT 1.62
SB 1.68
Ram Auto everything right now

I made it into windows and can do simple task get on the net, do excel and hwmonitor but when I try to run prime95 it crashes every time.

Any suggestions I am running Bios 0302 thats the only thing I could think of changing.

Thanks

You should unlink your RAM to make sure it's not the ram that is causing your Prime failure. Keep your RAM at 800 or below. Also which Prime test you are running? if it's Small FTT then its your processor that is currently failing. If Large or Blend then it can be your HT, NB, Memory, or processor.

I am running the small FFT. I also did unlink the RAM I just have all the voltage and timing on auto. So if its the Small FFT failing I should increase the voltage to the CPU I would have thought 1.4375 would be plenty.

Thanks for you help

This board has a .04 vdroop, which hampers max OC. I feel for you, since I'm pretty much near my max OC too.

I google and find people at my 3.5Ghz with 1.2x voltages, and I'm at 1.35v. This board for me is a Love/Hate relationship.

I am still new to this so sorry for so many questions.

So with the Small FFT crashing I should up my Vcore and see what that gives me correct??

I am just scared of burning up something or decreasing the life of the CPU significantly. I normally try to get 4-6 years out of a computer. Might be a little shorter now that I build them myself and don’t have to get an entirely new one every time hehehe.

Thanks again

I would just up a notch on the CPU voltage. If it is failing right away you are far off. If it takes a while before the failure, you are getting close to a stable vcore.

And I just reread your post. Are you using 4x multiplier with 800 Bus Speed? That means your Rated FSB is at a whooping 3.2ghz?

**EDIT: The math has to go the other way. change your Rated FSB to 1600. Divide that /4 = 400Bus Speed. Multiply X8 = 3.2Ghz CPU

I went back and dug up Golife's 3.2Ghz settings. Your settings appear to be more than enough to keep it at 3.2ghz.
