huh...so kwachiong mer....LOL
prime must see wether its large or small FFTs which affects it mer....like mine if blend got probs, then i do another prime on each type of stress test, so i'll know which is the lagging part.

thx for d feedbacks guys...

d one always failed is large fft, i'll post d alpha timings soon so dat u guys can have betta idea bout my problem...

more POWWWWAH! add more vcore lar.

Or invest in a good cooling solution.

OT:

kev, what happen to the candidate for the overclocking event? any news as I would be interested to come and see.

no more liao.....ATI duwan to do coz their schedule no time ahHAHAHAHAHAHA

but i tired the rig they sent..........its....powerful aahhahahaa

off ur spread spectrum as i noe..last time i oc time cant work..den i off spread spectrum..oc very good...i heard spread spectrum is to stablize the frequency

yeahh..OC till 2.5 ghz with default vcore can consider good la..

and make sureur LDT x HTT not over 1000

2.5 ghz at 1.425V prime no prob?
pump the voltage higher la, u got watercooling!

wonder if I pass my blend test and I fail for the stress ram test, whats the problem usually?

your rams cacatz lol

more like you push your rams too far and might experience aBSOD soon or not enough vdimm or wrong timings, not loose enough

NEED HELP !!!

AMD cool n quiet utility software, anyone use this b4?

Ok, here is the story...

When I bought my AMD system last august, after power on the cpu stock fan sound teribble. So, I installed the AMD cool n quiet software. I still remember tht when u install, it will popout a msg saying tht do not install this software if u intend to oc ur system. Since the time I do not oc anything, so I proceed to install loh.

Now, Im want to oc my sapphire x800gto2 to x850xt. But it cannot goes high bcoz while it find the max core the screen will suddenly blackoff. I seek help by capture some data and posted to overclock zone. A lot of forumer told me tht it is bcoz of the system is not stable. So, I juz think will it caused of the cool n quiet software tht I installed last time?

FYI, im using amd 64 venice 3000+, dfi dagf nf4, 2x256mb kingston, enermax noisetaker 600watt, sapphire x800gto2, WD 160GB sata.

p/s: I oso try to format the pc, but I still cant oc my sapphire x800gto2 to x850xt. Coz it will blackout like no display on monitor, unless I press reset button.

So, my question is:-
1) What is AMD cool n quiet software does? I mean it will update the setting in bios/mobo(permanent) or it juz a windows program; after format it will gone?

2) Do you think this software is the root to my problem? If yes, what can I do so tht I can oc my gto2 higher?

lol a gto will never be a xt. unless you actually enable the extra 4 pipelines that is.

this is special edition, by default it oredi unlocked the extra 4 pipelines. The only different is the core and mem speed.

Im new in overclocking world.
Plz show me some guide.

I drop my cpu multiplier to 9x and start increasing my fsb to 215...
Still ok... after i increased my fsb to about 225 my pc shows "Detecting Array" error message. I also notice my PCI clock is also increased as im increasing my fsb. Is this means my mobo dont have PCI lock?!

completely confused...

thx

1) is that your rig is as your signature?? better post a printscreen of CPU-Z here. download @ http://www.cpuid.com

2) PCI clock will increase with your FSB incresement.. select PCI AGP clock lock at BIOS..

run some benchmark software to ensure the stablity..

Here my rig spec

AMD Athlon 64 3500+ 939 Venice 2.2Ghz
DFI NF4 Ultra Infinity
2x 512mb Corsair Value Select DDR400
GeForce 7600GT 256mb
Coolermaster Real Power 450watt

I cant see any option to lock my PCI in bios...

Im using k8n neo 2 plat, u can enable the fan to follow the temprature. not bad .

anyway im having problems with this board
cant seem to get 250ht stable.
current config is 250x9. Htt multiplier is 4
rams are running 166 ( currently 205 mhz at 2/3/3/7 at 1T(still not stable with 2t either) at 2.75 volts (winbond ch-6)

oh and my a64 is currently a winchester 3000.
it aint stable when i prime it. after 5-10 minutes, error

anyone got ideas?

plz help me to oc my rig
max oc reach only2.45ghz
default is 1.8ghz amd64 754
ram kingston ddr400 ct-d43

272 x 9 = 2.45ghz 9 is max multiplier
3-4-4-10 (333) 1T
my target to get 2.5ghz

It is for stability, more HTT they hits, LDT need to set at least to x4 or x3, am i right ?

how come winchesters dont have multiplier at 10x?
instead of 9x?
is this normal or is my msi k8n neo 2 bios has a snag in it?
