i have dabbled around in overclocking a bit but i have never done any in depth oc'ing. i would like to try to get my E5200 in my sig rig, with the UD3R, to atleast 4.0ghz, stable, for daily use. ive seen people do this pretty easily. i have a good cooler and i bought this motherboard and good quality RAM so i could do some heavy OCing. i plan on upgrading to 4gb of RAM soon, so i will have 4x1gb of Gskill DDR2 1066, i hope having all my RAM slots filled wont effect my NB's stability. i have heard the newer p45 chipset doesnt have as many of these problems.
ive looked through my BIOS settings a bit, but im fuzzy on a lot of the details in there... i OCed my CPU to 3.33ghz just by changing the FSB. i left all the settings on the optimized defaults. i would really like some help from someone with experience with the BIOS on my motherboard so that i can get some advice on the settings i need to change. im not sure on how to go about getting the best stable OC... i dont really want to toy around with upping the FSB 10 mhz at a time or 5 mhz.. but i also dont want to load up 1.4v and just push the FSB as far as possible cause i dont want to hurt my chip. im not sure how good of an OCer it is. i had it running fairly stable at 3.33ghz at 1.280v (in CPUz) and i didnt tamper with any of the advanced settings that could help my stability. i just upped the FSB and bumped the Vcore a bit. this time i want a cleaner, more stable OC at 4.0ghz.
thanks a lot
