Thank you for your replies.

Straps? Lost you there.

FSB : DRAM correct? if (FSB > DRAM) Ram is bottleneck, if (DRAM > FSB), RAM is bottleneck. The optimum ratio is 1:1 i suppose?

Will try that.

Does it have to be 2x of the 800Mhz or the DDR1600? IE for DDR1600 u need 3200Mhz QPI or for 800Mhz you need 1600Mhz QPI?
QPI: 2884.7Mhz
DRAM: 801.3Mhz
NB Freq: 2564.3Mhz
Bus: 160.3Mhz
off-topic questions:
Why does my dual channel memory show up as single in CPU-Z? (I am checking my memory config now)
Why does my core voltage no longer show up in CPU-Z?
Update:
Core: 3604.4MHz (180.2x20)
QPI: 3243.9MHz
DRAM: 720.9MHz
NB: 2883.5MHz
FSB : DRAM: 2:8
After Small FFTs 10 minutes (8k passed) Temps ~51-54*C
I am looking to push this overclock further, I cannot get it to post from ~3.8-4.1GHz with these settings, do I have to change voltages?

I don't think if DRAM > FSB then there is a bottleneck. My FSB : DRAM is 3:4 and I doubt anything is being bottlenecked. My memory is running @1066mhz as advertised as well as my processor running a multiplier of 400 for the FSB @3.6ghz.

Ah, I read that online. I am not sure about the source or about the information, it just seemed to make sense.

I am not sure if i understand correctly
Go into bios, set vcore to 1.24, vtt core @ 1.15-1.2. Then increase the clock speed to 4.0GHz. (make sure memory freq is below rated [in my case ddr 1600])
Once again, thanks for the help

As you increase your base clock, your memory multiplier/divider (whatver you want to call it) stays the same. Meaning it won't maintain the same memory clock. If you set your baseclock to 200, and memory divider/multiplier by 8, you get 1,600MHz.
You just have to play around with the settings until you get the highest, but closest to stock/under stock ram clock.

Why? runs stable through a real temp sensor test. <Temps> Idle: 28-32 Load: 49-51 I have been trying to read up on this overclocking topic, but I haven't found much help besides increase the voltage of this, this and this! But why?! This is after mucking around with voltages, and trying to get 4Ghz (failed)... but I don't have a clue how. Help? |
