Hello, I am already been busy searching the internet about how I OC my CPU. I have read many guides and tutorials but I have still a couple questions.
My specs:
Cooler Master RS-450-ACLY Real Power, 450 Watt
MSI K8N SLI-FI
AMD Athlon X2 Dual core 3800+ 2,0GHz
Thermaltake Blue Orb II
Western Digital Caviar SE16, 250 GB, 7200 rpm, 16 MB, Serial ATA300
TwinMos Memory, 2048 MB, DDR, PC3200, 400 MHz,
XFX GeForce 8800GTS Fatal1ty
BenQ DVP-1650V, ATAPI/E-IDE
BenQ DW1655, ATAPI/E-IDE
2x 120mm (1xledfan)
1x 92mm ledfan
I know only that you must raise the FSB, or HTT for amd for OC'ing. I also know that there are more things that should be changed/tweaked . My question is therefore, what must I change all except the FSB?
This is what I see in my bios:
High Performance Mode......................... Manual
Aggressive Timing............................. Disabled
Dynamic Overclocking.......................... Disabled
Adjust CPU FSB Frequency...................... 200
HT Frequency.................................. 5x
HT Width...................................... 16 16
CPU Spread Spectrum .......................... Disabled
SATA Spread Spectrum.......................... Disabled
PCI-E Spread Spectrum......................... Disabled
PCI-E Clock................................... 100 MHz
SSE/SSE2 Instructions......................... enabled
Cool 'N' Quiet................................ Disabled
Adjust CPU Ratio.............................. StartUp
Adjust CPU Vid................................ StartUp
Extra CPU Voltage............................. By CPU VID
CPU Voltage ....................................1.350V
Memory Voltage................................ AUTO
NF4 Voltage................................... 1.50V
This is the standard setting. I have as a matter of fact a test done with clockgen and orthos. There I got BSOD at 2.5 GHz. These were at 40degrees stressed with vcore of between 1.26V to 1.29V.
Sorry for my crappy english
