Hi everyone.
I've got myself a new system a few days ago. I have the 805 processor, and my purpose is to overclock the system to around 3.6-3.8GHz(180-190FSB).
I have 512x2 Kingston Value DDR II 667MHz.
As odd as it may seem, with the normal use of the 4x memory multiplier, my overclocking process is stopped in 164FSB. The computer wouldn't POST.
Only if I set the memory multiplier to 2.66x, then my computer will be able to POST. I can even go as high as 190FSB with no problems(besides the heat).
3x/3.3x multipliers won't work either, which is weird because that will make my RAM run at 5xx MHz speed, which is more or less the same speed as in stock - 133x4 - 533MHz ram speed in stock.
I tried raising the vdimm and loosening the timings - still nothing.
I don't get it - why do my memories refuse to even get close to stock speed?
What's holding me back here?
Would really appreciate your help, because this is my biggest concern at the moment.
