any abit IP-35E user here? wanna see your OC result.

OT : anybody wanna let off their P35 board? pm / click my siggy.

To techno, I am using P35 DS3 bios F2 using cpu e4300

To rock,
I will apologise if I sound too rude but U should read how he reply. Somehow, he got the the wrong side of my nerve.
To ur question,

1. I am using strider 560w (not bad right?)
2. I manage to OC to 3Ghz using 333 X 9. but unable to do 400 X 7 (Shouldn''t be voltage problem right???)
3. I got performance RAM running DDR2 800 ~!!!! (SO???)
4. Using TT V1 3Ghz below 60'c load orthosing. My motherboard heat reading is below 50'c so don't need extra cooling, right?

So my question is, Is it bios the problem that is limiting my CPU from running 400 X 7 ???

you borrow me your leet ram to test la, then if work i go buy lor.

my rig no more available

haha yeah been legendary rig oredi..fast fast build new one ace..hehe then can lend him ur ram later

your main question was about bios, and IINM, ppl say that P35 DS3 is actually a really good oc'ing mobo, so i don't think it's the cause of the un oc ability.. need to ask those who's using p35 mobo about the bios they're using.. but i always go with the latest bios.. is f2 the latest bios? let's answer the others..

1. 560w strider ah? im using the same ler..
2. 333x9 bley, but 400x7 takle? possible explanation is either of this two, cpu hit wall at 400MHz FSB, or something is wrong with you rams..
3. Your rams.. ddr2 800MHz performance, did you tweak it in the bios? try loosening up its timing, or it's speed.. wanna see what's actually causing the prob.. either your cpu, or your rams..
4. hmm, suppose no need extra cooling ler...

oc'ing is about patience and luck for.. i don't have the patience sometimes

I don't think it is the mobo unless you got a defective one. My P35-DS3's bus speed can go up to 480mhz without any increase in vMCH or vFSB. I was lazy to test for stability so I just increase those voltages by +0.1v.

To me, the P35-DS3 is a good overclocking mobo for it's price - you can say that it is a good budget overclocking mobo. The vdroop can be quite bad though......

To kmarc,

which bios are U using?

I'm using F3. Lazy to flash to the latest one, I think it is F5 beta now....

hey guys, err, is it a must to use a cooler for the cpu? <heatsink@liquid>

yup,or else ur cpu will just boot less than 5 seconds and shut down.

need help here

1st attempt

E6300 @ 2.33Ghz, 1.25v (on 965P DS3 F4 bios)
sigh, i cant increase FSB anymore... stuck@333, izzit bcoz of my ram? (mushkin ValueRam DDR2 667 )

tried to increase vMCH +0.1v & vcore 3.5 & 3.525... can boot but fail prime test

To sya,

I think U need a better cooling for ur CPU as I think the temp is quite hot already.

Probably U can OC higher with a better cooler.

Hahaha, i dunno Y???

update bios ler.. F4 long time redi.. i think im using F11..

value ram ddr2 667 ah? then so hard for you la if wanna oc.. but if you really want to try higher oso, then you need to really loosen up the timing, i.e. 6-6-6-18 or some sort..
if still can't work, then try increasing your vdimm

but vdimm so high, u can damage your ram.. so jaga2 larr

im at 450fsb, using vcore 1.225 only, try setting vcore on that or probably 1.2V, then check it out..

also, try using better cooler, 60degC is quite hot...

When running Orthos, my rig always restarts at the 20th min of CPU and Memory Blend Testing.
This happens when I overclock my E6850 to 3.8 Ghz, (at 3.6Ghz no problem.)

I checked the temp using CoreTemp and it remains at 53-57 under load on 3.8 GHz.

I did increase the CPU voltage till 1.55 and the NBR voltage, my VDIMM is at 2.2v (using Crucial Ballistix DDR2-1066) memory timing set to 5-5-5-15
FSB was at 425Mhz. But it still restarts at the 20th min of testing.

Any advice is appreciated.

i would like to ask whether all gigabyte owners face this thing after OC their cpu and do a fresh power on..(after switch off the main wall plug power)
will this spoil my hdd?

Nothing strange..
Nice OC bro

Nope.

guys , need some opinion.

i'm using P35-DS3P motherboard , E6400 CPU , 2GB XMS2 DHX Corsair 800MHz C4 ram, zalman 9700LED cooler, FSP 600 watts true power.

i'm currently running at 3.2GHZ without problems, however if i wish to go beyong 3.2GHz exp. 3.4GHZ , 3.5GHz i encounter problems during start up blue screen , auto restart etc ..... but you guys here managed to go beyong 3.5GHZ o.O

400MHZ X 8 multiplier = 3.2GHZ
my VCORe voltage is : 1.450V
RAM voltage : 2.2v
ram timing : 4-4-4-12
memory ratio 1:1
now RAM running at 800MHz

now i using system voltage control to AUTO .

North bridge i increase 0.075V << i donno the actual V for northbridge i just simply increase it lol...

advise plsplsps i wan to reach 3.6GHz plsplspspls I abit confuse on increasing voltages here plspsls advise

has anyone tried pushing d e6850 with a p35-ds3?

Why when using GigaByte GA-i35P-DS3, my PC reboot twice everytime cold boot?
All GA-i35P-DS3 users, do you have same simptom?

i have same symptom...
its stated here:
http://www.overclock.net/intel-motherboard...te-ds3-faq.html

ok... it might be voltage problem... try increasing it in ur BIOS... b4 u do anything at all... upgrade ur BIOS 1st...
and DDR800 is no big deal... stock latency how much...? u gotta give more details or most of us might give u noob replies...
and lastly... did u lock ur PCI frequency to 100...?

vCore 3.5...? u sure...? my vCore is 1.XXX only... i got a 965P-DS4... used to have a E6300 on it... now using E2160... cuz i'm using the E6300 on my P35-DQ6... anyway... 400x7 is no sweat for 965P boards... lock ur PCIe Frequency and loosen the timings...

BTW... ur vCore is 1.264 which is very very low...

I just bought my Corsair TWIN2X2048-6400C4DHX DDR2 ram few days ago and it is meant to be run at timing of 4-4-4-12 but my CPUZ stated 4-4-4-13 so is it correct or the ram is faulty ? anyway i ocied my ram to run at 1000MHZ with timing of 5-5-5-15 working perfectly. JUST WANNA ask the timing only and i'm using GIGABYTE P35-DS3P motherboard. give some reply if my ram is faulty ....

to test wether your ram is faulty or not, google memtest86+ and download it.. then restart your pc and run it before windows start

syazone vcore is very low.. bump it a bit.. or if you dare enuff go straight to 1.4 or even 1.45v..

Your rams are not faulty. You guys always get confused with SPD timings. Whats SPD? google it. Your ram is indeed capable or shall i say rated at 4-4-4-12. Its just that the ram is being programmed as 4-4-4-13 in the eprom. SPD timings are just to ensure full compatibility to support other mainboards...and not meant to taken as actual ram speed. Set you ram speed in bios at the rated speed. I can guarantee you no problems.

yes boss you're right i guess my ram is not faulty after all weeeeeeee lol .. by the way is it possible to run the ram at 1000MHZ with 4-4-4-12 timings ? or you may suggest any suitable timing lower then 5-5-5-15 if can XD

I don't think you rams can do 1000Mhz 4-4-4-12 no matter what voltages you pump in. These type of rams is not really that performance rams as claimed. Crucial rams with D9xxx chips or any other rams with D9xxx chips be it value rams or not is the best OC rams.

you can try each timing to find out the sweet spot for your rams.

GHOSH ....... should have bought CRUCIAL or KINGSTON HYPERX lol.... i was amaze by the DHX cooling technology ... woot ... anyone wan buy my ram ? RM 425 willing to let go LOLZ. SO as you mention my ram is not the overclocking type but it still can go above 1000MHZ with the rite timings and voltage rite ?? or 1000MHZ is the max T.T ?

HyperX...dun buy. My previous HyperX DDR2 800Mhz can only do 1030Mhz 5-5-5-12. And your rams isnt voltage friendly...even if you bump in 2.3v, you still cant run 1000 at 4-4-4-12.

If you check at the garage section....a new set of Crucial Ballistix only at RM450.

OCZ not recommended ? hmm one more question is 800MHZ with 4-4-4-12 better performance or 1000MHz with 5-5-5-15 ? anyway THX for helping

Like i said...make sure the rams chips either D9GMH or D9GKX....these 2 chips perform the best.

dude i finally give up with corsair rams ........ now even at recommended speed of 800MHz 4-4-4-12 .. i run 3Dmarks 06 after pass 3 minutes systems hangs ................ can i get a refund from the place where i bought the ram ?? only past 5 days can ?? then now i use back kingston value ram 667MHz OCIED to 800 MHZ running smoothly but drops couples of framerates

You can try but i doubt you can get a refund. Coz your rams are not faulty. At most they will just replace you with another pair.

reduce memory multiplier... i think 2.4/2.5x should be ok... if not try 2x...

typo error, sorry...
the biggest problem i think is temp... sigh, hv to change cooler...

U mean change the FSB:DRAM ratio to something else other than 1:1? Asus motherboards do not have the memory multiplier setting

anyone here knows how should the jumper be placed? can anyone upload a picture to let me refer to? thanks.

can provide the real link for ur board?

link here
this is the link for a reference of my mb...

my old mobo.. nice mobo

the jumper is at top of mobo.. near sdram slot.. hv been write SW1 what proc u using?

---

Added on October 29, 2007, 2:54 pmi just set the jumper to open (no jumper been use), for both .. i'm using celeron 1GHz on that time , with pc133 sdram.. so i make it be 133.. for my proc.. same like my ram timing so i got celeron 1.3GHz hahaha

u mean the best way is to take out the jumper only?

It can be overclocked through the softmenu isnt it?
I used this board too lastime and all I have to do is up the voltage a little bit + change the FSB to 133MHz. My Tualeron 1.1GHz become 1.46GHz with ease.

i know a software called fuzzy logic...
but i want to mod it with the hardware manner 1st and try it out 1st...
then will try for the software...
i think i mobo will be extremely hot!
hahaha!
so any ppl used this mobo before?

i hv pull out that jumper, and set bios to 133.. that all (not adjust other, like voltage).. hehe a bit noob when using that mobo.. but GREAT mobo btw, i don't know what OC mean on that time just try and error.. but it work..

r u try to oc till what? 2Ghz??

---

Added on October 29, 2007, 10:35 pmbro, i think.. to pull out the jumper is to let mobo recognize sdram speed, it hv 100, 133, and auto right?? forget lor..

i have pulled out the jumpers at the SW1, but the speed still the same....dunno what is the problem...
u still remember how many have u pulled out?

can any sifu tell me overclock MSI ms-6337LE5 815ept pro ver 5?
i have tried to pull out both of the jumpers at the SW1 side...
but still dun have any change...
PLZ....HELP ME

How much power is needed to overclock the processor E6600 from 2.4GHz to 3.4GHz?... Im using 420W power supply when i overclock the processor till 3.4 and run a stability test... The CPU activity flunctuates sometimes... and the +12V sensor indicates that the voltage from 12 goes to around 11.88V when CPU going full speed...

hi, just wanna ask to all overclocker, does it okay to run my proc E4400 at 1.376 core voltage? does the life of he proc becomes lesser when overclocking?
