DFI should giv you better result. I using NF8 becoz there is no place i can find DFI at penang,so end up with dfi. I saw some1 on 350x7 on 2500+ with DFI mobo. Mine only max up at 345x8.

The same model. Btw u should set ur HTT ratio to 3x and using divider to run that high.

u set put ur ram setting to auto? thts my case last time, i only able to push my proc to 250fsb when set ram to auto, after tht when i set it to manual setting, i can push it to 292htt now stable, will push it again next week

try to set the ram timing to default speed using manual setting

First of all... DO NOT RUN AT 2T.
2T mode sucks big time. There are many other ways to push the RAM to run at higher speed besides running at 2T. Just leave it at 1T instead.

redleaf,

Firstly, have you updated the BIOS? E6 runs best with the latest official BIOS.

Since you got an E6 and the best S754 mobo around, we skip 250MHz, and go for 300MHz instead.

First, we need to make sure whether your CH-5 can do 200mhz 2-2-2-5. I think you should know how do do this part, and enable the memtest option. Run memtest85 at Test #5. If you can pass 50 loops, it's okay already. If you cannot pass, just run your ram at 200mhz 2-3-2-6, it's fine enough.

Okay, let's get to the 300MHz FSB thingy.... try out this setting:
Genie BIOS Settings:

FSB Bus Frequency - 300
AGP Bus Frequency - 66mhz
Clock Spread Spectrum - Disabled
LDT Downstream Width - Auto
LDT Upstream Width - Auto
LDT/FSB Frequency - Auto
CPU/FSB Frequency Ratio - 8x
CPU VID Control - 1.4V
CPU VID Special Control - AUTO
Chip Set Voltage Control - 1.60v
AGP Voltage Control - 1.50v
DRAM Voltage Control - 3.10v

DRAM Configuration Settings:

DRAM Frequency Set - 133 (DRAM/FSB:2/03)

Command Per Clock (CPC) - Enable
CAS Latency Control (Tcl) - 2.0
RAS# to CAS# delay (Trcd) - 02 Bus Clocks (03 for better stability)
Min RAS# active time (Tras) - 5 Bus Clocks (set 6 if Trcd=3)
Row precharge time (Trp) - 02 Bus Clocks
Row Cycle time (Trc) - Auto
Row refresh cyc time (Trfc) - Auto
Row to Row delay (Trrd) - Auto
Write recovery time (Twr) - Auto
Write to Read delay (Twtr) - Auto
Read to Write delay (Trwt) - Auto
Refresh Period (Tref) - Auto
Write CAS Latency (Twcl) - Auto
DRAM Bank Interleave - Enabled

(everything else just leave it at auto)

Then try run SuperPi 32M or Prime95.
1. If there is error, you might need to increase the CPU voltage.
2. If you have trouble getting into windows (blue screen etc) try increase the chipset voltage.
3. If you have trouble running 3d applications, set AGP speed to 67MHz and AGP voltage to 1.6v

since you're using sata... make sure you're using nvidia sata controller (no 3 & 4)

don't use the marvell

the reason not to use marvell sata is because the sata port is not 'locked' properly during overclocking.

luckily u din kaboom the hdd
