@bryanyeo87: I have the same problem as well. Try lower your HTT to 600, it works for me. Or if it still happens, try increasing vdimm, but I think the main reason is HTT. I've OCed to 250 and forgot to lower it to HTT 600. Although it still at 1000, but don't know. It just work for me  @kalakatu: Yeah, maybe so  Crucial, the price is so cruel. But 667 can go up to 1080?? Waa, just wondering IF mine can or not  Anyway, what's your status? Reached 3.0GHz yet?  |

I have the display driver problem when I OC above 2.8GHz. Still hoping it will not occur anymore in the future, or else need to get a stand alone GPU since onboard VGA sharing its memory with RAM Some Q here, let say I've OCed to 2.8GHz or 3.0GHz and decided to change from stock cooler to other cpu cooler, do I need to DC? Same goes to RAM, after tweaking the timing, and if I wish to change it to another better RAM, do I need to DC? |

Brisbane for RM199? Damn lah, it cost me an extra RM60 last week, but nvm as long I have it already  Still trying to reach 3.0GHz Maybe it is because AMD's new proc is about to be release |

You need to perform 32M SuperPI laa bro I think ST56F is enough I see, maybe that's my problem. No wonder I've pushed even to 1.45v, still can't get 2.85GHz stable for Orthos. And I was about to get a cpu cooler. Maybe should save a bit for ST56F |

aiyaks why didn't OC? then give your ST56F to me laa and even you enable your CnQ, you should increase your HTT back to default laa X5 |

QUOTE(kalakatu @ Jun 23 2007, 09:46 PM) one thing i love about AMD is the good motherboard can be obtained with a cheap price, while for Intel, we need to fork out more for a nice mobo, RM350 is the minimum.. Yeah, Intel's mobo at least RM350 I'm waiting for AMD's AM2+, hopefully the lowest is around RM2++ And also hopefully the result of OCing will be on par as C2D And I saw Brisbane this evening RM195  not to mention also limited |

QUOTE(bryanyeo87 @ Jun 24 2007, 02:01 PM) dun nid to downclock it wan..but u might expect higher temps temporary if ur using as5 or mx-1 paste, cz need abit of time for it to bake up.. and yeah, dont throw the hsf away, coz u need it for rma purposes lol... I see. That means I should be expecting quite high temp at 1st, but later it will cool down? And the HSF, of course I won't throw one |

Err maybe I should just downclock to stock 1st before changing the HSF to a better cooler, especially for noob like me Then after everything is considered ok for me, then will OC again |

One more Q. vdimm is set to 2.15v, is it 2.1 or 2.2? Because I see from health status, it stated 2.11 when I set to 2.15, but 2.15 rounded up is 2.2 So anyone? |

QUOTE(kalakatu @ Jun 26 2007, 12:36 PM) perhaps its like other Tforce version, where the sensor isnt very accurate.. but so far my voltage reading doesnt fluctuate drastically yet.. anyway just a quick question, did u use the current bios or did u updated it? I update it because existing BIOS doesn't have CnQ, that's why. But not from Biostar website, somewhere else forgot already. Been googling around |

No one answered my Q yet  If I set to 2.25, would it be like 2.2 or 2.3, because I tried and it showed 2.20v, so ok laa to set 2.25 w/o memory cooler, is it? |

QUOTE(kalakatu @ Jun 26 2007, 08:40 PM) i think its more than that..u missed out NF590SLi, NF520, ATi690 and ATi7050.. i dunno which mobo to be recommended, but u have to dump that M2N-E...that board seriously s*ck in overclocking.. and as an previous owner of TForce 570U, i am very proud of its overclocking performance, except its memory voltage controller.. 2.25v is abit high...try touch the rams and feel how hot they are.. if its too hot like Crucial Ballistix, better get urself a ram cooler fast ATi7050? I thought that's nVidia laa So 2.25 is a bit high, but BIOS health status stated 2.20 2.15 -> 2.11 2.25 -> 2.20 Don't dare to touch it laa while PC running  I'm getting Cyclo  Will try to push higher, but still I don't think so laa because of ayam brand PSU  This post has been edited by afosz: Jun 26 2007, 11:09 PM |

QUOTE(jy14 @ Jun 27 2007, 12:08 PM) It'll b safer to get ur PSU 1st, then only OC. But at 2.3V, no prob to touch the rams. I've touch mine at 2.3V, not that hot,but when u load up, it does get heated up fast. Mayb u can consider adding some Heatsinks to it or a heatspreader. I'm sure Moderno's Vizo thread can offer u some choices. The TT BT VX already in, u should grab it soon b4 LYP sapu all the stocks. Only got about 100 pcs come in, so, if 10 units for 10 shops in LYP, i think it'll be shortage again. hehe O ok, PSU 1st then OC Just wanna learn and feel the exp of OCing when you have all its features. Unlike my older mobo, S2G has limited features, so I learn a lot lesser compared to now. Now I know pretty much about those stuff, it's time to get other items plak For memory cooler, which is better? Heatspreader or the whole slot cooler itself like Cyclo, Vizo's or Evercool's? |

QUOTE(mruzian @ Jun 29 2007, 09:24 PM) hehe dats true once u o'c then the power consuption increase oso But 89W consumes even more power after OCed than 65W QUOTE(Split^rOck @ Jun 29 2007, 10:05 PM) There are few Biostar Tforce board with more a less the same price ( TF570SLi , TA690G ,TF7050, may i know which board having the best performance and overclock features/ability if the SLi feature is not in the consideration) ....and is the AM2+ available is lowyat now ? how much ?if not, then when will it be available? thanks TF570SLi = ATX TA690G, TF7050 = mATX Any three is great for OCing. TA690G and TF7050 are considered the best mATX OCing board It just many ppl chooses TA690G because of better VGA, I guess Biostar already has AM2+, but not so sure it is available at LYP, or in Msia This post has been edited by afosz: Jun 29 2007, 10:53 PM |

Max? Stay below 1.5 I guess, but some already reach 3GHz with 1.42 or 1.45 with proper combination |
