Which cooler U have in mind?? After the cooler then get a better power supply .. OC kau kau ..

your ldt multiplier is too high... drop to 3X maybe...

Where to change this setting?

HTT link too low will affect the system performance?

HTT link too low say, below 400mhz then got a slight performance drop, but u wont realize it unless u do benchmark la...cz normally even when playing games, u wont even use up to 500mhz out of the 2000mhz HTT speed given.

I am using cap ayam PSU and my vcore in cpuz fluctuates from 1.296 to 1.328. This is because of the cap ayam right?

If I use something like Acbel psu, would it still fluctuate? Anyway I have tried to oc it, I can get 2.8 (priming since early evening today) stable with coretemp showing below 45C. To get 3 gig I need to add vcore +0.5 to boot into windows. I'm planning to get a silent cooler master PSU and cooler master hyper TX.

I really don't want to add vcore cause my purpose of upgrading to 65W was to get the savings when running 24/7. If I just OC without adding vcore the power consumption still max at 65W right? Anyone test this before?

u can see the chapalang caps got burst or not in the long run..

once u oc..
it will consume the power depends on the speed..
regardless changing the vcore or not..

u will use 35-45W if u run 1ghz.. that's why CnQ good for saving..

I'm newbie on overclock.

My cpu is AMD X2 3600+(2.0 Ghz) and Asus M2NPV-MX mobo.

My mobo multiplier max is 10x. So i have set this setting for it. I set the bus speed to 210 Mhz and able to hit 2100 Mhz now.

Is it the correct way to o.c. by adjusting bus speed ?
What is the max o.c. i can get from my mobo ?

Thanks.

yes and no,

yes in the sense u try to up the bus speed higher without changing the multi.
no is, u need to drop the hyper transport muti down or u will have stability probs.

and for knowing how far ur mobo can go depends on ur ram, mobo, psu and cpu.

so just go expriment and see how far u can go

I think the motherboard voltage regulator or the motherboard sensor is to blame. Quite rare that vcore fluctuation is caused by PSU. In your case the fluctuation doesn't look that bad, should be ok.


Most of the reputable motherboard and PSU companies have given up on low quality caps. Exploding caps are mostly heard of only in overheated PSUs and old motherboards (usually socket A and socket 478 only).

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?

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

Try to change ur ram to another ram slot.
It might help u

ok guy.let see my bribane.....
hehehe.100% prime stable!!!!!

max 330HTT!without stable with 1.475.superpi 28Sec.
hope i can be btter tomorow

lol.. finally u made it.. good job..
but i found it's hard to prime stable above 320fsb..
and again the vcore report incorrectly above 330 i think..
need better bios maybe..

i just stick to my 3ghz for daily usage.. since the cpu/mobo temp load <45C

Did some searching and found that AM2 boards come in 3 chipsets.
550, 570/ultra and nForce 4.

Which chipset would you recommend?
I am currently choosing among Biostar 570U, abit kn9 ultra, asus m2n-e and dfi infinity nf570-m2/g

I'm getting Tt BigTyp VX this week, and later PSU laa dunno when

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?

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

TTBT VX good choice .. I'm using a TTBT but not the VX version .. Gives excellent temperature .. Lapped to 2000 grit last night .. Still burning in the AS 5 .. Will be checking on the difference in temperature before and after lapping ..

Monitor closely the voltage of the 12V rail during high OC in case it becomes unstable .. My previos no brand PSU fluctuated alot during OC of my Athlon XP ..

Better get a memory cooler ler and make sure the ventilation within the casing is sufficient ..

GO GO and OC higher ~~
