ok, its been a while since ive overclocked, had the 9950 be to 3.4ghz once completely stable and water cooled with low volts and temps. just bought a new phenom II 940 and i forgot how to get the HT link over 2000mhz (showing 1890 right now) any help?
mines black/dark gray (with blue writing on it) i have 8gb, you have 4gb, when i just have 4gb (2 sticks) put in they show up as ddr2 1066, ive tried ganged and unganged, set bios to ddr2 1066 instead of auto, tried disabled sli ready also.
i got better scores on 3dmk06 (not the advantage version) with the 9800gx2 overclocked, i think i liked it much better than the 280, i havnt monitored the temps on it be4 i got rid of it. havnt done any real benchmarking with this 280 yet either.
--got my corsair dominator ddr2 1066 4 x...
thats 2 x 2gb dimms, if you have a total of 4 x 2gb, 8gbs, then they wont show up as ddr2 1066 (i believe bios 1401 is suppose to fix this issue, i'll find out this weekend maybe)
congrats!! heheheh
the coolit freezone is nice, easy to fit, just make sure you put a small
amount of thermal compound, there are others that are better im sure but this works fine
for me even with overclocking.
i upgraded and VERY happy i did, this 9950 be oem overclocks very well, got it
to 3.3ghz by upping the volts but i am stable at 3.1 at stock volts (1.30v). 3.0ghz at 1.25v (very nice)
i just updated the bios to 1401 today.
stable at 3.1ghz w/ 1.30v 15.5x/200 fsb - temps 100F/38C
stable at 3.0ghz w/ 1.25v 15x/210fsb.
also only setting i messed with is the cpu multi and volts, everything else left at auto.
Version 1401
Description 1401 BIOS for M3N-HT Deluxe
Enhance system stability when using 8G memory.
ARGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i just sold off all 8gbs of my ddr2 1066 memory too. thats so f* up!!
lol
- Travolta i'll post my settings shortly...
going great, i can reach 3.0ghz w/ 1.25v. i have been able to get 3.3 so far while increasing volts to 1.4. im stable around 1.3 (stock) at 3.2 though. i go by cpu temp.
dont have a problem with my volts dropping. seems like i have good chip, still cant
get ddr2 1066 memory to read...
click on post reply, then scroll down to your bottom left you will see 'manage attachments'
it'll pop up another box to browse and upload, has to be under a certain size i believe.
