I am running an ASUS A8N-SLI Deluxe with a 3700+ @ 2.2 and Corsair XMS 2*1gb kits, (4*512) @ 2-3-3-6, all with a Silverstone ST56ZF PSU. Cooling is very well with a setup from Dangerden Liquid cooling: TDX 3/8", Maze4 nForce4 3/8", 2*80mm Rads, CSP-MAG pump. Idling at 27cpu and 25mobo.
The biggest issue is that I cannot take my cpu past 2.3GHz and have my ram stable. I know I can easily take this chip past 2.6 and I am shooting for 2.8 with new cooling. What I get is errors when running memtest86.
Somehow when I overclock my CPU it raises my RAM freqs :?:
I have tried lowering timings, increasing voltage to CPU, changing from 2T to 1T (wouldn't boot), changed ram from CL2 to CL3 (wouldn't boot, had to clear CMOS). My ram is running at 2.75v and cpu at 1.4 (stock). Everything is stable at stock but as soon as I get past 2.3GHz ram fails and I can't boot sometimes.
Any suggestions?
