well i just managed to climb untill 275 max.. i think my proc limit no sempron though.. put it 270 for stable usage.. quite ok ler 2.4ghz.. not much voltage modding also..
thinking to get a ram that can go 270 easily.. so no need to put 166mhz base ram there.. anyone can tell me which ram suitable for my setting..

i create a calculation to search the best tune..
as my cpu limit to 2500mhz and ram capable only 235mhz good in tight timming only.. loose it also can't go high...
the purple line is the previous setting

user posted image

with 183 setting ram limit the cpu...
my hynix can go higher becoz capable of 245-250 but only 512mb...

but still wierd though can't even try 133 base..

now i'm running SUM % =3.37
for higher cpu speed.. reduced ram no much different.. can only feel speed power..
vCPU = 1.55 ,
vRAM = 2.70 , 2.5-2-3-5...

on 1:1 270fsb, my cpu at 2.4+ghz.. there is no use for me to set 300fsb and use divider coz my cpu can't achieve 3ghz..

other setting will reduce ram capability..

Current set

If it has pci lock, means it's stable. Not the other way round. tongue.gif
Anyways, give it a try. See if the PCI clock will rise when you push HTT. Do it in windows first....using clockgen.

laugh.gif hehe i mean lock oc capability not lock the pci..
not try yet ler.. not even have a time to play.. maybe try it later..
by the way why my PWMIC so high? even not oc it's reaching 66C and sometimes pop to 89 a beat.. blow the fan still no use.. correct reading?
