1100T in a M3A32MVP

[Steevo]

I am running BIOS 2202 which fully supports my 1100T, but I can't find how to turn turbo core off, I can get it booted and running stable at 1.55vcore at 4.3Ghz but I can't get windows to load as the Turbo core kicks in.

I actually had to just stop using my multiplier to overclock, it would cause issues at slower than stock speeds. If I leave it on auto in the BIOS and clock my RAM up I can hit 4.1Ghz on stock voltage when turbo core is working and 3.7 the rest of the time, but I want MOAR!!!!!


I have 1200 Mhz DDR2 and have my timings tight, and i tested the FSB up to 235 stable, but I was wanting to use the multiplier and try and squeeze every last mhz out of this chip.

1.55 is pushing it might degrade on you ...
also don't use a bus overclock it just complicates things

I used 1.6 on my 940 for its whole life with no degradation.


Its water cooled with 30C for a max temp so far. Plus turbocore uses 1.504 vcore to achieve stock clocks. I actually am running it on auto voltage now and have great temps while still hitting 4.1Ghz, but I have the capacity for 4.3 on all cores, I just need to disable turbo core and I am finding that Asus, just didn't put that option in a enthusiast motherboard that supports it.

if you need 1.55 to break 4.3 then your chip is crap
and the cooling doesn't matter 1.55 is good for testing but anything beyond that are it starts leaking ..
1.55 != 1.055

I appreciate your attempt to help, but you clearly have no idea about overclocking.

STOCK clocks, AMD allows for 1.475vcore

So under water 1.58 will be safe 24/7 with no worries.
