tried flashing the bios? asus's bioses lately has been pretty good.. not everything is pushing the volts.. ram even though it does well on intel doesn't mean it'll do the same on A64.. just try around.. maybe try a stick of ram and see how it goes.. and flash your bios..

Asus boards use a custom version of the AMI BIOS. And you should flash from DOS instead of using Live Update. Try playing around more with your settings and read the A64 Overclocking guides at DFI-Street and other forums.

Mine also reached 2.5Ghz with 1.4vcore, stable prime95 test... i am using ASUS A8N-SLI, should be can overclocked, check ur ram settings, like ddr400, ddr333, if FSB to high lower the ram to ddr333, plus set the hyper transport multiplier to 4, HT mhz should not exceed 1000... plus not everything rely's on voltages, some might fail if voltage to high

ASUS A8N-E user here. Try to set your LDT to 4x or 3x.   I am using value RAM. So I have to set the memory divider to 333. The timing can be tighter to 2.5-3-3-7-1T... forgot to do that... now doing it... This post has been edited by Xeon7222: Feb 10 2006, 12:19 PM

if you want to know how to set your LDT, see at your mobo's manual... turn to page 2-21 and page 2-22... you'll see it's all about Advanced Menu at your BIOS..Go to 'CPU Configuration' > 'Hyper Transport Frequency'. That's your mobo's LDT setting. Usually it will set Auto.Then if you want to OC, u need to change this method bcoz HT link cannot exceed 2000MHZ, means the calc (LDT*HTT*2). for example mine here, HTT=250, LDT=4 then (250*4*2=2000)

revving towards 10,000 rpm
|
Precautions: - Have you disabled Cool n Quiet in the BIOS? - Have you tried the latest nVidia chipset drivers? - Already lowered your LDT multiplier?
LDT multiplier is also called HT multiplier in certain mobos, you might wanna check that. The default (AUTO) is 5x. With 4x, you can increase the HTT up to 250mhz. Higher than that you probably need 3x.
Hypertransport = HTT x LDT(or HT) multi <= 1000mhz

hehe well this mobo is not meant for OC btw. If you want good OC experience, maybe can get Jetway SLi..
I chose this board because I like it's stabality and has constant update of BIOS so it could continue to support newer proc of s939. Unlike others who has a few patches at first then no more news.

Hit 325 LDT without a hitch, took it up to 330 for curiosity's sake and it was still alive and kicking (didn't take it beyond that because I didn't want to have to resort to the Clear CMOS jumper).
Anyway, here's a rundown of overclocking features on the Jetway 939GT2-ULTRA-G
1. LDT from 200-400 MHz 2. HT multipliers 1x-5x 3. CPU VCore up to 1.55V 4. Additional VCore up to +0.35V (giving a total of 1.9V) 3 & 4 together are quite useful, since you can leave VCore at Default, and dial in additional voltage. This allows Cool n Quiet and programs like RMClock to adjust CPU voltage (otherwise their commands are overriden by the motherboard setting) 5. DDR 200, 266, 333 and 400 Memory speeds The Jetway does a good job of showing you what actual memory clock you will get with a given LDT speed 6. Thermal Throttling 7. CPU and System Fan Thermal Controls.
Ran quite stably at 325x8 = 2.6 GHz on a Venice 3000+ @ 1.6V on air cooling, but have decided to dial it down to 2.5 GHz so I can turn down the voltage a little. Anyway, the overclocking features on the Jetway are quie comprehensive and the board is very stable.
Right now I have a strange problem with the rear usb ports where a device will hang for a second or so once in a while. Not sure if this is a motherboard problem, because it recurred on a second board. Front usb ports and PCI USB add-in card works fine. Will contact Jetway and see what they have to say.
Cheers, V.
