[WTA] I'm a newbie in OC-ing. Just for fun i tried oc-ing few days ago and cranked it up to 4.1 GHz. Then i restarted and it got till windows loading screen but then just froze up! I tried restarting the pc and it didnt start! But after like 1 day++ i tried turning it on again and it turned on perfectly but the settings went to the default. Is it my ram or the stock cooling is the culprit? My specs are below.
Specs:

M\B: Asus Crosshair V Formula.
Proc: AMD Phenom II X6 1090T.
RAM: Kingston 2x2gb 1333MHz.
GPU: XFX 6950 2gb.
Proc cooling: Stock AMD cooler.

try check ur temp..

if ur temp is ok then it shud be ur oc settings not stable

After installing I quickly fired up and started to increase the memory speed to see where is the wall regarding my processor capabilities and found out that when I reach <1900mhz upon reboot it will be detected as 8GB, but as soon as >1900, only 1 dimm (4GB) is detected....change back so that the ram runs <1900, voila....dual channel 8GB...

Bios 0901, both dimms at slots 2 and 4, voltage for ram is 1.65v , CPU-NB 1.5v (nowadays 1.5v is red shocking.gif ) CPU Vcore is 1.425v

wow.. so high.. mine anything higher than 1700 start giving me errors.. any idea why?

superbly done mate!  notworthy.gif nice to see 2300MHz done on chv. vdimm looks fine for such frequency but isn't it d imc volt is a 'lil too high? 1.4v mite degrade it if u were to run it on 24/7... am still strugglin with over 2200MHz on my psc sticks (ocz 2k 9-9-9).  sad.gif 

can i request for an hour of blend test on 2300MHz. I give up on windows memtest for quite sometimes ledi...  tongue.gif
no prob bro.. will blend it now smile.gif

the imc volt i still left it on auto.. i will try to lower it

Yap...i've been browsing my old posts (deneb) era and found that in order to run 1600 i need to bump up the cpu-nb to achieve stability...the rams i have now is capable of 1866 cl9 1t on intel but arent able to get past 1840 cl9 2t on my new board n old deneb...

propus and rana or even might be better at running higher speeds iirc compared to deneb, which prefers the tightest timing possible....

i will continue to look for a sweetspot and will prime the hell out of it just for the lulz... smile.gif

juz like wat kunta said, i hav juz found out somewhere 1900Mhz is the limit for deneb nod.gif

Im using 790FX  cry.gif, now pusing NB to 2800.
Btw, my HT Link max at 13x?  hmm.gif
What is NB Voltage and CPU NB Vid?
I set NB Voltage to 1.2, CPU NB Vid to 1.3

HT and NB is linked..

NB is at the chipset i thk hmm.gif

but im sure CPU NB is in CPU.. both are different..
CPU NB controls base clock n CPU NB clock if not mistaken hmm.gif
