Sifu's out there im a bit confused in overclocking with software utility instead oc the manual way by tweaking in the BIOS.I tried to oc my athlon am2 4000+ to 211MHZ fsb(standard fsb 200MHZ) the system booted up and windows was stable and able to run the system long hours without crashes etc.(stock speed 2.1GHZ,OC @ 2.2GHZ) but when i start to increase the FSB to 212MHZ the system was unable to boot,so i know that i my ram cant take the higher FSB.
But OC using MSI dual core centre i was able to increase my FSB all the way up to 230MHZ (CPU speed @ 2.4GHZ) and windows seems stable and able to run games etc,with manual OC i find that my ram is unable to even boot at 212mhz FSB how is it that MSI dual core centre able to tweak my FSB all the way up to 230MHZ is my FSB really at 230MHZ?I checked using CPU-z and my clock speed is at 2.4GHZ.Im confused sifus hope can give clear explanation regarding this issue

with higher FSB, u need 2 increase core voltage as well.But OC using MSI dual core centre i was able to increase my FSB all the way up to 230MHZ (CPU speed @ 2.4GHZ) and windows seems stable and able to run games etc,with manual OC i find that my ram is unable to even boot at 212mhz FSB how is it that MSI dual core centre able to tweak my FSB all the way up to 230MHZ is my FSB really at 230MHZ?I checked using CPU-z and my clock speed is at 2.4GHZ.Im confused sifus hope can give clear explanation regarding this issue
