check ur venice and look for the stepping..

try some of this

flash to 618-2 bios
use yellow slots for ram

UTT with active cooling i'd say 3.4-3.5 for 24/7 use..
processor on stock heatsink 1.5-1.58max

if lazy then i don't think DFI board is suitable for u.. give it some time and tweak it..

thx bro~

don scold me like that ma~~ im lazy cuz i cant wait to see how is my new system performs le :-)

ok ok, with some of ur advice, ill try. will study more about this new baby set.

by the way, the heat issue of the mosfet when switch to 4v vdimm still remain? and the rams temp, must us a heat spreader? or just leave it nude better?

thx yo~ notworthy.gif

think u didnt read the proper overclocking guides, am i right?
well first thing u do is lower the multi for your rams
i believe in the page where u set the timings there's an option for DDR400, DDR333, DDR266 and so on
by default it's DDR400 if your rams are, set it to something lower like DDR333 or lower

btw all these stuff are really basic...so pls read up on it
since i'm in a good mood, here are some links, these are probably all you'll need to know

er... need some advise here. im o/c my venice now. but ythe HTT can be adjusted? it's still running the same with FSB.

my o/c tuning is like this:

divider = cpu/fsb 6/5
FSB = 280
LDT = 3x

but i check with cpuid, the HTT still 280.

is this a bugs? ur im setup wrongly~

thx

your HTT will be whatever u fsb u set in your bios, its not affected by the divider
that divider is to control the freq of your rams only

btw, wat mobo are u using?
*
oh i c~ so no matter how, FSB still running same with HTT?

im using DFI sli-d.

im trying to o/c it to 300fsb but my system is not stable. stop prme after 10s. is it because the HTT is too high? or my venice need more vdimm? im try on 1.63V only. didnt try out more)

thx

HTT = FSB in A64, frequency of ram depends on how u set d divider as wat Jim mentioned.  wink.gif

wat kinda ram u are usin? could be ram problem oso.  smile.gif

stepping of ya venice? I can safely say not all venice can do 2.7GHz.  biggrin.gif
*
HTT = FSB.... so what we can do is only to adjust the FSB only but not the HTT lo? hem, so 300 HTT consider as high or not?

im gonna try to benchies my cpu at 2.7GH.

well, my full setup:

1.thermalright xp90c
2.coolermaster 450watss pure power PSU (i suspect this one also.. which this PSU is only a midrange product)
3.twinmos speed premium 1AA4t (CH5-UTT rams)

if you're testing how far your proc can go, just set the rams @ 133 or something like that so you're sure that they're not limiting your proc

IMO anything below 1.7v is okay for benching with air cooling (if u got a nice hsf)
after testing and priming lower it back again la  tongue.gif

yeah, 2.7ghz isnt that common actually
*
ok ok, will try to lower it down to 133 first.
