I know this CPU will hit 3.5 if it does not well then it's a fing waste.

I'm expecting 3.6 3.7 or more with it.

i am a little disapointed with the stock heatsink/fan , i was expecting something like the x2 6000 with the copper heat pipes

that must be the issue right there, you need a good cooler for those overclocks. stock just doesnt cut it for that.

temps never go above 51c under load , just done a vantage run @ 3.2ghz

7750 be @3212
CPU Score 5010
Graphics Score 8518

my old x2 6000@ 3287
CPU Score 4913
Graphics Score 8512

my 4870 is at stock speeds

cdawall · Dec 23, 2008

unless they updated the BIOS than nope

and SB600 can be a limiting factor i used it. i kinda figured it out myself, but then again the K9A2 isn't the best oc'ing mobo under the sun

chaotic_uk · Dec 23, 2008

upto yet i have just raised the multipler , not tried raising the fsb yet . time for a new mobo ? lol

those temps are pretty good actually. stock coolers are usually crap but may be AMD refined them. Are u still getting 51c under full stress test, like OCCT, prime, etc? or is it highrer?

chaotic_uk · Dec 23, 2008

only tried vantage and farcry2 to bench atm , i used the long bench in fc2

CBOT · Dec 23, 2008

My Kuma wont Boot with 3,6Ghz at this Time, need more Tweaking with Bios

.

chaotic_uk · Dec 23, 2008

what bios tweaks have you used ?

try orthos and/or prime. you have to make sure the overclock is stable for sure, check your temps and run one of them overnight.

chaotic_uk · Dec 23, 2008

where do i get these progs ?

chaotic_uk · Dec 23, 2008

whats wrong with amd overdrive ? , the readings are incorrect lol . 3.8ghz lol

You can get Prime95 from here:

Go to Step 3. Just pick your OS version.

there is also orthos, i believe its the dual core version, if not you have to run 2 instances, one for each core:

and also, OCCT, though i found it less reliable than both orthos and prime, it sometimes tells me overclock is stable when the other 2 fail. but it does have in program temp monitor:

just noticed my memory is running in unganged mode , why is this ? . i wonder if it is something to do with having all 4 slots full ?

MSI K9A2 Platinum

is better than the new asus 790fx IMO

I owned both of them the MSi clocks better,

U dont want to run gagged its slower.

cdawall · Dec 24, 2008

i ran the MSI as well and my Biostar 780G clocked better

CBOT · Dec 24, 2008

Only Voltage and ACC with some Gaming on HT and NB divider.

I used the ASUS M3A79-T Deluxe, that give me more Option to Tweak for High OC.

Well it's correct assuming you are running a 16x multi

16x200 = 3200 , so how can it be running at 3.8ghz
