I can only overclock my E2140 till 1.85 Ghz ( 230mhz x 8). When i try overclock something higher ( 2 ghz etc), it cant even boot and says overclocking / overvoltage failture during the 2nd boot-up ( after switching off the main power)
Any help is appreciated...
CPU:Pentiun E2140 @ 1.6ghz M/B:Asus P5KPL-AM Ram:Kingston 1GB x 2 DDR2 @ 667 Mhz G/C:Winfast Geforce 9400 GT @ 512 MB

QUOTE(joe_star @ Dec 8 2009, 01:50 PM) not really worth considering how low end the setup is. Might has well change to higher speed proc. @TS, post pics of your BIOS settings inside the BIOS. I'm guessing you're quite new to OC-ing huh? will post asap. i got exp on overclocking a pentium 3 only so im reallly new to oc LOL Added on December 8, 2009, 2:47 pmwhy my mobo have no option to let me set the vcore, only the option to let me set my frequency.

QUOTE(joe_star @ Dec 8 2009, 09:31 PM) becos its a cheap ass not for OC mobo. But you dont have to adjust voltages at such low OC speeds. Voltages need only be tweaked over 2.6ghz, unless your proc is totally hopeless. Ram divider is important though, it should be set to 1:1 1st, then later can be adjusted to suit your OC. urm since im really new to o/c, can i know where to set the ram divider? tq

QUOTE(joe_star @ Dec 9 2009, 08:27 AM) Did you google before coming here? I just googled your mobo and from the looks of it, it should be able to do some moderate OC-ing. Heres just a brief sample of what i found:- http://forums.techarena.in/reviews/1073004.htmWhat i gather from there is that the mobo itself should be able to do FSB400(QuadPump 1600), which is sufficient for moderate oc-ing. I also notice that it has a G31 chip, so you should definitely disable that before oc-ing. Go read up your mobo manual on how to do that http://forums.techarena.in/overclocking-co...ion/1124685.htmhttp://www.tomshardware.com/forum/248838-2...00-overclockinghttp://www.tomshardware.com/forum/240001-2...ads-duals-guidethx 4 the info.
