well i can take it to 4.1 mhz but i have to add another .5 volts on it. so i would rather keep it at 3.9 with less volts and less heat.

Its at 3.9 @1.4v and 22c

AMD over drive for temperatures ( will also display your current overclock at the same time)

CPU'z obviously

And Prime 95 with large FTTs ( will also let you know if your coresare stable)

Hey man, was wondering if you could help me out with the other settings to over clock with AMD?

That looks great man!

I especially love the ram ;) lol

As for my questions.

Just want to know what to do with the other types of voltages, there's much more to play with then on Intel D:

Yeah I've done that, hit a wall, is there no voltage adjustments that could help?

For example there is a CPU/NB voltage.

As well as a bunch of other stuff.

Nb voltage would only really help with ram overclocks and HT overclocks, there might be a CPU VID voltage tho try upping that.

Click to expand...

5 ... i wish :)

I tried every way possible to unlock the cores and everytime it failed booting into windows, so i guess i will just stick with 2 cores and Overclock as much as possible

There is a slight increase in temps of 26 idle @ 4 ghz but not to bad.
