can suggest what FSB i shud start at? and do i have to set the RAM timings and all the voltages?

hmm.i tried the dividers..wont work either

lower the multiplier and increase fsb

multiplier locked at 13

Hard to OC loh, 166x13 is already 2158mhz. Try using 170fsb again with increased voltage - ur default is 1.65v right - so try 1.75v or 1.80v... What are ur temps?

stop thinking of unlock a superlock cpu...
i surf all internet and try all i can...
increase the FSB will do.... pam more vcore and get better cooling...

problem is..there seems to be a problem with increasing my FSB..wont even go stable at 169

my temps..at stock speed:
Case 28
CPU 49

Stock heatsink?

nope...i don't use abit bios tho..so the readings might be different

Pump up the voltage till you can boot at 170fsb. its likely that this voltage is just enough for booting but not stable, might need to pump voltage higher another step to get it stable

okay..thanks for the help...i'll try

it's more than just upping the fsb

u need to pay attention on:
voltage : normal desktop barton chips needs higher voltage to get it overclocked compare to mobile barton chips
temperature : eventhough you already put high voltage, a high temperature will hinder the speed. safe to say that heat prevents further overclocking
ram : ram can be a limiting factor. if u r using sucky rams, make sure they're on dividers. a few mhz overclock is usually okay if you want to run it synchronous with the fsb
motherboard capability : make sure your mobo can lock the AGP speed


evertything else... just read the friggin' sticky topic over fundementals of overclocking on top of this section

ok this is what i'm running on now:

170MHz x 13
vcore 1.7v
vddr 2.8
CPU FSB/DRAM Ratio: auto..not sure what to put
RAM: 7,4,4,3.0

temps on idle : 23 / 46

Is it prime stable? Idle temps are nothing, must see the max temps at full load while running prime95;

tighten those timings up, 11-3-3-2
lower the vddr to 2.7v

i thought 170FSB omli can set very tight timing even with low voltage?
y use 3-4-4-7?
u can try 2-3-3-5
if sucess wif those timings u can try 2-2-2-5 or any other combination

NF7 lah... Nforce 2.... 2-3-3-11 would be better, works with any ram. i am assuming he is using standard valueram.

yea..standard valueram..

so after talking so much... how's it OCing?

hmm..cant seem to pass 3dmark...
