CAn't go from 2.4 TO 2.5ghz on a venice 64 3200+ ...HELP???

I stopped at 2.4 too ı tried different settings it booted but crashed running a benchmark. Maybe it is the end of the road. ı had thought it was because of my value rams but since you have better ram and have the same problem ı will think about it. Meanwhile you don't need to add voltage to your cpu to get 2.4 ı did not and have not any problem it changes from 1.360 to 1.410 it is healthier . ı will try overclocking more when ı have better rams such as OCZ El platinium rev 2 or something

Your ht (hyper transport) speed should not go much higher than 1000mhz,try droping it to 4x (4xfsb=ht) instead of the default of 5x. If it is to high it will cause the lockups you are having.
