hello guys.. noob here.

I got 1 qstion.

I wanna learn oc but firstly i need to know how to lock my sata port to prevent my hard dsic from corrupted. me using biostar ta690g here.

Pls help guys.

Bro dblooi, its hard to catch up with u.

3++ secs gap in super PI.

Just locked your PCI-E to 100MHz will do

Haha...you go for LN2 confirm can

-pWs-

Huhu..LN2? not for me as im not ready for it,but i will just keep on trying to get good result.
I think my F3 limit me to 3.41 with Div 667 la.
Even i tried 2.9Ghz with 800 Div also appear error at superPI.

I feel like wanna sell all my pc d.

Here's the rest of my OC log. For those who haven't read the first part, its here -> Link

I actually did something interesting first before I started OCing the F3..those of you who COD our F3s together would know quite well what..frankly, I had more fun doing this than actually OCing the F3..

To be honest, there's not much to say this time, just a couple of screenies only.

My initial OC with the F3


And for my OC record, which I did not have any time to optimise settings (I was in a hurry),


At long last, add me into the list of AM2 overclockers

How to lock PCI-E speed? cant find it in bios. Sorry for being noob..

phew.... 3800+ can OC better than my 5200+.... really feel that my 5200+ is kinda junk now.. sigh...
i tried again yesterday bro...
Speed bus 220MHz
Core multiplier 13
HT Link 1100Mhz obviously HTT multi is 5
Ram 353MHz 5-5-5-15-21 1T
Vcore default
Vdim default.

1) i tried to increase the Vdim to 2.0v in windonws and the whole PC stalled
I reboot again and the voltage wet back to normal.
Then i plan to set the Vdim in the Bios, but the Vdim setting is 1.95,2.05,2.15 bla bla.....
so i set to 2.05... wahlah... the PC didnt start. Keep on having long beep every 2 second... sigh... have to reset Cmos..... kinda need help here... may i know what possibly went wrong?

2) I set the memory back to normal again. and i start tweaking on the Vcore.. I remain the bus speed at 220MHz. As from my understanding form the sharing in the forum, increase the Vcore is like pusing the CPU for more potential OC, of course not over push. Once i increase the Vcore, in window base, to 1.38v, the pc continue to run for a while and suddenly black out and shut down. actually i experience this before but i didnt realize that the it was the Vcore causing the shut down. Was it really it? need comment

3) just want to check, is AMDX2 5200+ and TF7050 and 2G Kingston value ram DDR667 a decent combination for OC? thanks....

Bro... I notice something different about your ClockGen.
Pls refer to the attachment below... the one mark with red circle, i dont have it when i open the ClockGen.
I only have Clock and Options menu only.
As for the clock menu, I can see reading for the first 3 meter starting from the right.. however i dont get the rest of the meter reading as marked in circle red as well...

about the PLL control menu, forget it.. i dont even have those...

ha ha ha... curious... is yours the latest ClockGen? I tried download from CPUID.com but not available.... cheers and thanks..


Attached thumbnail(s)

u should lower ya ram timing to 533 and htt multiplier to 4x so that your cpu will have more room for increase more htt...
overclocking depents on ram, power supply, cooling, a good board... and of cause knowledge... read more guide

thanks for reply..
actually i have gone through alot of forum for the over clocking for weeks before started OC..
2 days ago.. i reduce the HTT multi to 4 and i reduce the Ram to 566MHz for more rooms for OC. Same thing.
When i increase the Vcore, it auto shutdown.. and when it restart again, the blue screen appear for 1/2sec and restart again. Then the setting for the Vcore went to default and Bus speed reduce from 230MHz to 215MHz.

I did make sure the HT linke was below 1k, but i found from forumer that they can actually go slightly above around 1.2k for newer version board.

I am using a 450True power with 8800GT 512 amp.
my board is TF7050 (good or bad?)
CPU cooling is Zalman S8700. copper heatsink.
using Kingston Value ram DDR667Mhz

What power supply u use?? Model??

-pWs-

i suspect the problems comes from his PSU....
maybe need to try other PSU?? suppose the rams wouldn't bottlenecking his ocing...

s#it...mine can boot and run super pi at 3.55GHz 1.525 Vcore and 2.2 vdim..usind 400 divider...but i try orthos failde around 15 minutes..WTF...should i increase more vcore... idle 42 load 54 pwm when load around 74 ...

it's consider stable if we run orthos with divider 400...then pass for 8 hours..after that we change divider to 533 @ above...got any different in stability or not???should we run orthos back???

i am using a cooler master 450watt real power
here is the link.
http://www.coolermaster.com/products/produ...cate=173&id=192

I bought about 5 months ago.

TF7050 cannot use clockgen

I think your PSU having problem too. Do you have other PSU to try??

I doubt you can orthos for long time @ that speed. Kinda hard

oh Sh**.... man.... then this board is not really good for OC...
any other recomendation to tweak the bus speed from windows?
thanks... by the way... increase Vdim hang/cant reboot... have to cmos reset..... sigh

Added on December 14, 2007, 2:36 pmhmmm.... PSU problem... sorry dont have other PSU..
when i dont OC, my PC can run 24/7. when o OC the buss speed to 220MHz with the rest of the setting remain default, i also can run but when increase further, PC cannot take it already...

Cannot take it meant??
I suspect is PSU problem. If can, try to lend one PSU and try.

-pWs-

can try biostar OC tool but not recommended. This program is too buggy and lame

i think ur PSU really not enuf for ur current spec la~

u using 88GT is need lot of power~

U better get other PSU to try 1st

just me 2cent
