Hi, I'm new to this NG and I hope someone can help.
I'm in the process of overclocking, so let me tell you my setup, settings,
benchmarks so far and then I have a couple of questions.
I'm running:
AMD 64 3200
Asus A8N-E
1GB (2x512) Mushkin HP PC3200/DDR400 blue
My BIOS settings are:
HTT = 255 (os won't boot any higher)
HTT multi = 4 (os won't boot at 3)
CPU multi = 9
DRAM freq = 333 (bios stops at 400)
Cmd Rate = 1T
Memory Timings
Auto or 2,2,3,5 (gives about same benchmark)
All voltages are at Auto
My benchmarks are:
Aida = Memory Read 6252, Memory Write 2486
Sandra = Memory Ram Int 4185, Memory Ram float 4185
cpuz = core speed 2554, muliplier 10, HTT 255.4, Memory frequency 212.8
I get similar readings with clockgen
My questions are is this a reasonable overclock, shouldn't the memory
frequency be higher, am I missing something, am I doing something wrong?
TIA,
john
