Hi guys,

Anyone tried doing OC on this motherboard ? I tried and it seems the highest FSB I could go was 470 x 6multiplier. Couldn't push any further (all all stock settings). Any possible way I can push pass this FSB ? Maybe OC my ram or something ? I am using 1:1 divider (fsb:ram) and using corsair ddr 800.

Btw, the system would not post after I set FSB any greater than 470. Please guide me in passing through this FSB .. maybe some ram tweaking ?

Thanks alot

actaully....for ur q9450 to touch 470 is consider good edi

if u wana go higher...try bump a lil vtt/vfsb....

u can try with Vnb/Vcmh too...

but make sure u don add those voltage by too much.....

How come multiplier x6?
Q9450 should be x8 multi right?

Want to test how high the board can go is it?

True. 470 FSB for quad is impressive d.

-pWs-

Yup, would like to see if it can pass 500 fsb or not. If it can, means there is a chance of doing 4.0 on it
Looks like I need to google for some ram voltage tweaking then.

u might wanna read abt this before u ramp up so much of vtt.

I tried playing with GTL ref on the bios.But it seems that my motherboard are limiting me to a 64% max GTL ref voltage( vfsb x 64%). I have seen multiple forums indicating that the gtl voltage value for quad core normally goes at 67%~70%. But my motherboard just cant go to that value, maximum just can go till 64%

There's another possibility of your RAMs can't go higher...

If that is the case, then it is rather dissapointing . Maybe need to get a higher performance ram to achieve 4ghz =="

jus want to share

MSI P45 archieved very high fsb with ln2

Yup saw that as well, he mentioned that he could for 600fsb on air cooling. Dont know it is true or not. I can barely hit pass 470fsb on my current setup. Maybe ram limiting me back.

here's the original post
XS : Msi P45 Up 700fsb
u can follow up on the discussion there

Just flashed the latest UEFI bios. Which is a UI based BIOS for this motherboard. Seems nice but dont know whether it enhance OC capability or not. Gonna try it out tonight

any higher bro ?

Changed back to bios 1.3. The UEFI bios seems not so good at overclocking currently.

greeting mate, i checked in MSI forum coz i'm oso using tis mobo, seems that they have clocked over 500FSB using Q6600 but using 1066 rams, it says ter 2 get team x-treem performance rams, says they're quite stable...

Hi bro, any link for that source you see ? Would like to see their settings on getting that on stable

Hi,

Anybody got OC Q6600 with P45 Platinum??? mind sharing here...
