i got a good mod for my am2 9500 zalman cooler which will probly work for yours and reduces temps abuot 5c-10c(depending on what fan u use) but i'm on amd 5200+ so dont know what your temps would be like. i can get 2.95 stable out of my procy so i would have thought u can get more out of your:D

loosen up the ram timings as far as they will go and see where your fsb maxes out (then tighten the timings). Match that with your max CPU overclock and presto!

simple eh?

Drop the multi on your 6400 and get over 3 Ghz. If that doesn't work - drop your resolution and squint.

KetXXX is the ram guy im pretty sure... But I would go like 5-5-5-15, its what my ram is rated at for 1033. I would get some timings from one of Wizz's reviews or DDR2. http://forums.techpowerup.com/showthread.php?t=31611

set your fsb to 250mhz and multi to 12x. HT link to 4x. DRAM to 5-5-5-15 unless certified at 5-5-5-12. your oc will be 3.0ghz cpu, 1000mhz ram, 1000mhz ht.. i would also take a look at your voltages.. and adjust them if needed..also jack up your pci-e bus speed to 110 to 115mhz.

LOL failed to see you had AMD.

You would benifit more from LOW timings and standard speed (from what I understand = little)

Have you changed your mem divider to find you max CPU OC? IMO its easier to work off of that before OC'ing the ram
But the speeds you are at look good for 24/7 use :rockout:

With that CPU you should be hitting over 3ghz, got mine sat at 3.2ghz on stock volts fully stable and very quick though I have also ran it at 3.5ghz.

My ram timings are 4-4-4-15

I can start the game with no problem. I start to have problems when I actually get out to the course to play golf. The screen is completely grey. I hear audio but it is unplayable. I get the same issue when I run the game with Windows XP compatibilty.

hopefully helps

If u dont have it already http://downloads.guru3d.com/download.php?det=1634


http://m0001.gamecopyworld. com/games/pc_tiger_woods_pga_tour_2007.shtml

Here are the three steps:
1) Go to the link above and scroll down to the file that is marked Tiger Woods PGA Tour 07 v1.0 [ENGLISH/FRENCH] Fixed EXE. Click on the little square underneath the file name, and you should be re-directed to a list of mirrors: Click on one of them. Download the compressed file and extract it to your desktop.

2) Delete the TWP_2007 file in your .bin folder of your Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2007 folder in your C:\Program Files. After you have done this, just drag and drop the two extracted files into the .bin folder.

3) Delete any remaining shortcuts on your desktop or Start menu, and create a new shortcut for the new TW_2007 exe file for your desktop.


Try all of that and let me know if it helps. :D:toast:
