Looser timing can go for higher FSB on the mobo also.Try then out!

now mine max only till 168 fsb 1:1, i tried not prime stable even i loose the timing to 2.5-4-4-8 =_=", i tried to play with 4:5 divider tonight and see the performance.

You try on 3-4-4-8 and see.Use the loose timing....

My MSI mobo is locked... I oc proc then ram also oc edi.. Now my 2.8E can hit 2.98 only becoz limited by the ram i think.. shud i get high performance ram or add more ram?

kabukiawie, may i kno the vcore for ur proc? Mine 1 is 1.40v at 3.0GHz, but somtime it will drop till 1.359 in cpu-z, seems like not very stable...

try to use the divider

but how? set it in the bios? I'm not able to do so as my mobo dun support this function.
Izit got the 3rd party software to set the divider?

erk..dun hav those function meh? using latest bios edi?

got 1 function like this:

DRAM Frequency (Mhz)
Use this field to configure the clock frequency of the installed DRAM. Settings are:
PSB 400: 266, Auto, 333, 400, 433, 466, 500.
PSB 533: 266, 333, Auto, 400, 433, 450, 466, 500, 354 (3:4).
PSB 800: 266, 333, 400, Auto, 433, 450, 466, 500, 532, 501 (4:5),
533 (3:4).

it jus change the frequency but not the divider, i wish i can change it to 1:1。。。。



on the pic above, which 1 should I use?

voltmodding LGA 775 cpus. not sure if old or new.....

You can try on the PSB 533 strap setting with 4:3 divider. If you wish to use 1:1 divider...then you have to test out your mobo and RAM's maximum speed can go.

I try set to loose timing(3-4-4-8 loosest timing) and it run on 4:5, works fine but cant feel the different.
benchmark it is higher a bit. priming last night it seems no error after few hours. Will try to pump up clock speed to max, see how far it can go.




i set to default, the reading is higher than in bios. About 1.4v
But when full load it drop to 1.3++v, like what you said, not stable. Mine i can be quite sure that is my PSU not enough juice

Finally, I able to change the divider to 1:1 and push to fsb 180 but seems like the Super PI become bit slower than using 4:5 at fsb 170. I think i should manage to push it more....

Going to change the PSU soon, then gona try how high my proc can go, but jus worry that my RAM not able to change it 3-3-3-8, maybe will bring limitation for me...

1:1 it should be ok for your proc & ram, unless you r using DDR333 ram. mine 1:1 can go till 180+ but not prime stable.

The best is using the 1:1 divider since both proc and RAM will be having the same bandwidth for data transfer.But the RAM's timing though playing a very important role on performance.

some screen shot of cpu-z dude .. ur running 1:1 rite? use divider ..

of coz lar..coz ur ram became slower than 4:5
fsb 180 = ram 180 using 1:1
fsb 170 = ram 212 using 4:5

Sure it is.
But now I reach the top ald, cant go up anymore. Mayb is the RAM limited me....

hows your Super PI 1M result? Mine only manage to get 44s

now you running at 180fsb@3240MHz, prime stable??

my crappy 2.4A limits me at 168fsb, even at fsb it give me error after prime for 5 hours. i think thats the best it can go

not sure coz i jus prime around 6 hours only, will try to prime longer later.

But now got another problem, the voltage seems like not stable. The +12v jus around 11.75-11.95 only, never exceed than 12. I sense by using the MSI core center(a voltage n temp sensor s/w), it show me this result.

But when I c the voltage in bios, it is totally different(never less than 12v). Then, which 1 should I refer to? 11.75-11.95 volt will bring damage to my hardware?
