Hello all,
I've recently put together a system with a DS3 v1.3 and an E4300. I OC'd an A64 successfully before, as well as an E6600. I tried to OC this combo, hoping for an excellent clock (at least 3.0GHz). However, all I can get is 2.8GHz, with mult. 9 and FSB 300-310. I looked at all the guides to see if I was missing something basic. I tried to see if this was a chip or mobo problem. I put the multiplier at 6 and FSB at 410. It would not POST. I tried again at 333. No POST either! :x I see how 400+ might be rough, but it should definitely be able to do 333, right? I know that the chip can handle 6x333. I tried upping MCH, FSB, and core voltages, to no avail. The board won't even POST at 320! I am using the latest BIOS. What is going on?
Before you ask, this is a 965P, NOT a G.
Specs:
E4300 + AC Freezer 7
DS3
2GB Crucial B. Tracer PC2-8000s (@ 2.2v, DS3 BIOS Setting +0.4v) 8)
7800GT
SATA HD
IDE CD-ROM
Ultra X-finity 500w PS
etc.
My temps are fine (<60C load OC), but I am concerned that there is a problem with the board b/c of this FSB. I suspect it is the PS, but others have OC'd successfully using it. My memory really shouldn't hold me back. No matter what settings I choose, it doesn't work over 310 (even at 9x310 vcore has to be really high - 1.5v+).
Can anyone help me? Thanks in advance.
