Hi, i just finished setting up my new comp and i cannot overclock it at all, when i click enter to change the fsb frequency nothing happens and same with the multiplier, i have tried updating my bios but still i cant oc!
Help!
Thanks in advance tech9374.
Specs:
MOB: Asus P5K
CPU: E6850
RAM: 2GB XMS2
HDD: 80GB SATA
GFX: 7600GT (Until my 8800gt arrives!)
PSU: Non-Cheap 500w
Firstly, Dont flash your bios just because you cant overclock it, Dont mess about with the multiplier at all and set the mobo back to default settings, Set AI overclocking to manual, Set the PCI E frequency to 100, Disable cpu spread spectrum, Disable PCI E spread spectrum, Set your ram frequency(to manual) at 667Mhz(lowest divider) manually (for now) and leave everything else on auto. Then raise the FSB to 366mhz then save and reboot. you need to download a program called orthos to test your rig for stability using the cpu/ram blend test. If you have followed this and it will not work you might have a hardware problem.
When will people learn to read up on overclocking before jumping in and changing settings that could break the pc you spent shed loads of money on, Unless mummy n daddy bought it.
