3200+ 939 on GURU mb OCing?

[Ampz]

BTW I already have this comp I'm using it now but its not overclocked. My new comp will be in about a week from today and that will be my main computer this one will be my bot comp. I still need to OC this one. Where do I start? ^^

amd 64 3200+ 939, nvidia gforce 6800 ultra 8x agp 2048mb pc3200 ram, windows xp pro 5.1 build 2600 Asus AV8 (VIA K8T800p-8237) GURU MB chipset = K8T800 pro. WD 80 gig SATA.

Do I need clockgen to do this? If so my MB isnt listed there and when I use the other abit ones the clocks are greyed out. I prolly can do this all in the bios tho right?

In the bios i was able to find ram voltage and i set it to the highest, couldnt find ram timing, bumped cpu coltage to 1.525, and coulnt find the rest in the bios. No increased speed yet im getting 2.045ghz and thats what i was getting brfore makes sense because i couldnt find 50% of the items i needed to edit in my bios

 

[Ampz]

Im gaining speed so far gotta keep increasing it ^^

Ok, I was able to bump it up to 230mhz and it run smooth. When I went to 235mhz i was getting blue screen of deaths. My cpu is running at 2302mhz in comparison to 2040mhz when I first started! I'm very happy! Can I get it any faster or once I get blue screen of deaths I'm cappeed? Are you happy with the speed I have gained? I AM! thanks man

 

[Ampz]

I had to set it back to normal speed lol. I can't load a video game when overclocking it wont load and then ill have to reboot cause it will freeze ><

There should also be a BIOS option for AGP bus speed. Make sure that's set 66Mhz, otherwise it'll be proportional to your FSB so it will keep rising along with the FSB and you'll hit problems. That might be the cause of some of your problems.

I would suggest reading the overclocking guides at the top of the forum, since you obviously don't fully understand what the stuff you're changing does. It's a lot more difficult to permanently damage things through changing BIOS options than people would think, but it is possible.

I have a AGP lock on my A8V Deluxe.
It overclocks pretty well too.

I still cant get this game to run when I'm overclocking my cpu. Everything else works fine I can browse the net for hours etc and I wont have any problems but when I go to play this game it will get all the way to the loading screen then stop. I don't understand it.

run Prime95 or memtest86 to see if its the ram that is faulty.
You could run some 3dmark to test the vid card further. Like this you could isolate whats holding you back and work on it!

Well this ram is brand new i just got it yesterday lol. 1st gen Samsung 1 gig chips x 2 pc3200. All my games will run fine if I have regular cpu speeds but once I up the speeds the games all crash on me, at 1st i thoguht it was just my internet game but i just tried grand theft auto SA and that crashed also. ill run prime 95

 

[Guest]

Its more too see if the ram can handle speed above 200mhz! When you OC the ram too far, you get errors, even if the ram is fine!
My ram wont do much more than 260mhz...altoguh it might eb the northbridge

I dont have a divider option in my bios is my problem

 

[Ampz]

prime 95 has been running for 8 hours wth lol its still going?

 

[Ampz]

they can only handle 230, if i set it to 235 i get blue screen of death, lemme go make sure my ram is set to 333 but how come i dont see ratio 5:4 or 80% in my bios?

 

[Ampz]

ok i set the ram speed to 333, the games still freeze but everything else runs fine. I onsee AGP ratio in my bios and its like 8:2:1, 7:2:1, 6:2:1, fixed (66mhz), fixed (77mhz).

Right now its set to 66mhz fixed thats what its been at the whole time

 

[Ampz]

Right now its set to 66mhz fixed thats what its been at the whole time

but stuff is still frezzing up when i overclock, im also told that i will gain more benifit with a lower multiplier like 9x and then upping the system bus speed but i know noting about what the system bus is ^^

 

[Ampz]

stock it came with the processor almost always buy my processors retail since its not much more then OEM do you have aim or msn by any chance? would make it much easier since im such a noobie
