Hi guys,
I'm running an AMD Phenom II X4 965 @4.1GHz on air fully stable, tested both in Prime95 and gaming for 5 hours, but everytime I try for 4.2GHz it BSOD's during a Prime95 test. I've tried numerous configurations but still can't get a stable OC. Can anyone help please?
Specs:
Mobo: MSI 990FXA-GD80
CPU: AMD Phenom II X4 965BE @4.1GHz (205x20 with Vcore@1.425200v)
CPU cooler: Cooler Master TPC-800 w/ 2x Corsair SP120 fans (push/pull)
RAM: Avexir Core White series @ 1640MHz (1T-9-9-9-24 @ 1.554v)
GPU: MSI GTX 770 Lightning
PSU: Cooler Master V850
I understand there have been numerous threads on this, but I felt the need to create my own to try and learn and apply things to my setup. How does the CPU-NB frequency affect overclocking? I have this set to 2255 at the moment and not too sure if this should be higher or lower. Also, the same question applies to the HT Link Speed which I have set to 2050 at the moment but unsure what the correct value of this should be for my setup.
Any help would be greatly appreciated,
Many thanks
