Hello, I'd really like some help with my own rig. My spec are fx8150 BD standard everything as far as settings.
16gb g.skill ddr3 1600
MSI 890fxa-gd70
bios 1.14
I have tried booting in every setting from many videos and guides i can find and I simply cannot get it to boot, funtion or sometimes POST into any settings other than stock cpu settings. I know a little bit about overclocking and this is my 3rd AMD cpu and ive tried to overclock each one i've owed and I can never get it to run at all with anything beyond stock settings.
I'm looking to run 4.4ghz stable with my 8150 and I have the corsair H80 liquid cooler which is probably overkill for stock cpu settings.
Also i'm not worried about temps too much I have invested in nice fans and try to keep the room cold.
If anyone is familiar with msi bios and getting this chip to run at 4.4ghz that could help, I'll mail you a donut and thank you on here!
Things ive tried (some)
4.4ghz with x22, 200fsb, 1.6v dram, 1.45 vcore 1.35 vdd vcore -doesnt even POST-
4.4ghz with x21, 210fsb, 1.44vcore autovdd vcore -hangs on windows startup-
4.4ghz with x22.5 200fsb, 1.45vcore autovdd core -BSOD during windows startup-
I just dont understand I can't boot and run it at all without leaving it at stock settings, am i the unlucky 1/100 chip holder that happens to be a piece of crap or am I just retarded at overclocking in general?
I really appreciate the help!
On another note when I first purchased the ram I was able to run it in 1866 with everything stock settings for a few days then I flashed my bios and even continuing on stock settings it will not POST with 1866 and only runs in 1600 which I for the life of me cannot figure out.
