Since I overclock in the BIOS (I OC 25%) for AMD Brisbane 3600.

I set CPU Mhz to 250MHz, HT bus reduce from 5X to 4X. I increase voltage +0.05V

However, does that mean the RAM automatically being OC ? I m using Kingston 1GB 667Mhz Value RAm

My system some times bcome unstable & the computer revert back to 200Mhz. Why ?

I got 1 casing fan & an ONE additional 80mm UVLED fan, should be enough?

I even use this OC (24 hour)l office typing etc, should I just revert back to normal setting & only OC it when I need it??

I OC my AMD 3600 Brisbane 1.9GHZ to 2.375 GHZ (25% OC., 200 Mhz > 250 Mh), I reduce my HT to 4X, so that HT frequency remain 1000 Mhz, reduce my RAM to 533 MHz, so that it OC 25%, it still remain at 677 MHZ (I m using DUALChannel 2 GB Kingston 667 Value RAM) I also disable Cool & Quiet

However, sometimes I start my computer, the computer system will automativally revert back to 1.9 Ghz, didn;t allow it....
If always like that, will it damage my rig ?? I m using ACbel I-PWER 450 W

I don't understand, any thing go wrong ?? I got good airflow in my casing, the CPU temperature is remain less than 40 C in idle , sometimes is 28-29C in cold rainy days .... Anything go wrong??

What ram divider you use? How much is your ram speed and timing at 2850Mhz??

I OC my Bribane 3600 to 2375Mhz also face problem (25% OC)... rclxub.gif

Sometimes (seldom though), I restart computer, it shows (the black screen) in safe mode, Press F9 to continue, it revert back to 1900Mhz... cry.gif

I put at 250Mhz, & adjust the HT to 4X. make sure it is 1000Mhz range. Disable Cool & Quiet. Set RAM at 533Mhz. (I m using Kingston 667 Dual Channel)

I m using Biostar Geforce 6100, and Acbel I-Power 450W. PSU not enough Power ? How to check system stability beside Nvidia ?

My RAM not put near the CPU... already put as far as I can!!

What HT/ RAM divider ? I just set my RAM to 533Mhz in BIOS, though my RAM is 667Mhz. But, after OC, the RAM is 533 X 1.25 =667Mhz...

My Kingston RAM can not OC one, it will automatically restart computer if I put 667Mhz x 1.25 = 833Mhz

MY rig: Biostar Geforce 6100 AM2
Kingston 667 1 GB x 2
Acbel I POwer 450W
GAlaxy 8500 GE
Dell 19" Wide Screen Monitor

I do not see any problem for your overclock setting.
Here one suggestion for u.
Try to plug the ram to the nearest slot to the CPU. After that, try to oc again. cheers.gif

-pWs-

wHY NEED TO PUT AS NEA AS POSSIBLE ? LAST TIME. other forumer tell me to put to the nearest slot... Say, near CPU, HOT !!

I m confused noe...

Ya, Geforce !! My place did not sell Tforce 6100

How much Geforce can clock with Brisbane 3600 ??

What is vdimm ?? Not too sure, let me check first...

urs is ddr667...
no doubt it needs more vdimm...
how much is ur max vdimm?

YA, DDR2 667
Need to confirm, DDR voltage = vdimm ?
MAximum from Bios is 2.0 V, but it normal set at 1.9V

Why u said set DDR 400 suit me ??

That means I need to underclock my RAM by so much? DDR volatage max is 2.0 V

My Bios got one setting, near the Cool & Quiet. Got "Visualisation", need to turn off or not ?

Where to turn off CPU spread Spectrum ? In BIOS where ? Advanced Chipset featres ?

test the system stability with Orbhto ? What is that ?

I plan to just do OC till 2500Mhz with my Biostar Geforce 6100 using default core (1.3V), should be OK, right ?

cauz if u were to oc to 2500,
ur ram will sure be runing above 667Mhz wif other divider...
n 2.0V can't do anything...
if got 2.2V will be nice...
n yea...
ddr400 to test out ur proc's best...
then oni u find the highest ur ram can go...
*
YA, I undestand....

Now, my RAm is 352 x 2= 704 Mhz (I am using DDR2 667),

Slight clock shouldn't be a problem for my Kingston value RAM , right ?? Should I put it at 2.0 V or just left it at 1.9V for DDR voltage ?

Prime95 u need 2 clients only can stress fully your CPU.

For ram, slight oc should not be a problem. Even you want to hardcore also can laugh.gif
Is it the timing same with the spd value?

-pWs-
*
Prime95, I just use the stress test....

The timing of RAM , all 5 clocks, (set it at 1.95V)
cycle time 15 clocks, Bank cycle time 21 clocks, Comand Rate 1T. following the 333Mhz speed

Problem : CAn not disable CPU spread spectrum

IN advanced Chipset eatures, it shows CPU Spread Sprectrum : CENTER . (Biostar Geforce 6100 AM2)

Is it because of that I can't reach to 3.0GHz other than the fact that ayam brand PSU? Where's the option?

@Irressistible: set RAM timing to 2T and RAM divider to 533, then you can push higher. If can't go any higher, then only touch vcore and vdimm.
*
YA, already done that .... satisfy wit 2.5 Ghz la. Maybe will revert back DDR voltage to 1.90V. Now, I set it at 1.95V

Why mine can not DIsable CPU Spectrum? sad.gif

Easiest way, pull out the battery, go make a cup of tea/coffee, finish the drink, when u r back , feeling hot and fresh, u'll be good to go for another round of OC. thumbup.gif

MIne one is something like that, I thought LOAD Fail-safe default (not sure my BIOS got or not blink.gif ), this should be OK, right ?

last time, I put "EXit without Saving", it will bcome default...

I don't know how to pull out battery la, sound so risky.....

haha, need to clear CMOS or not?

If not mistaken, there's an option in BIOS called restore default setting.

press enter then everything settle

Already "Disable CPU spectrum"

I individually set each of them back to default...

Brsibane 3600 OC with stock cooler, even CPU 100% usage, the temperature only 45 C, at least for now.... I think yhis is a quite acceptable temperature
