Dear all,
Here is my setup
Gigabyte P965-DS3 F10 Bios
Intel C2D E4300
GeIL 1GB (2x512MB) PC6400C4 800MHz Ultra Low Latency DDR2 Dual Channel Kit (GX21GB6400UDC) CAS 4-4-4-12 1.9-2.3v
Tuniq Tower 120
Corsair HX 520W PSU
6800 GT Extreme GFX
PCI USB 2.0 Card
Windows XP
Idle 24c (CoreTemp) Load 42c (Dual TAT, CoreTemp) Ambinet 22c.
I'm trying to overclock my CPU. I disabled all the things suggested in the c2d guide and then upped the bus speed to 220 then 230mhz and left the voltages on auto optimise (FSBRAM 1:2). This works fine. However when I up to 240Mhz then it wont boot (keeps resetting before BIOS) and I had to clear my CMOS.
I dont really know what I have to do next? I guess I need to up some voltages? Strange because a friend of mine runs his E4300 at much higher clocks on stock voltages!
Could my PCI card or GFX be causing the problem?
Any help much appreciated, thanks
Warny
