Hi. Recently bought a qx9650, lapped it and installed it.
Runs fine at stock.
I was trying to oc it to 3.6 by upping the fsb to 400 (x9), but everything keeps crashing.
No matter what settings I use (voltage, timings, DRAM:FSB ratio, NB volt, FSB volt) it'll crash. Only when I set these to AUTO will it actually POST.
I did have a e6750 oc'd to 3.2 (400 x 8), with RAM 800 (5-5-5-12 +0.1) or (4-4-4-12 +0.2), perfectly stable.
Now, with the settings on AUTO (and overclocking) it runs at 800 5-5-5-18 @ +0.2! And the Vcore is 1.168 according to CPUz.
CPUz says the stock voltage is 1.040 (set to 1.1125 in BIOS). The AUTO setting doesn't change any other voltage.
Why won't it work at 5-5-5-12 @ +0.1 or 4-4-4-12 @ +0.2? And what voltage setting in the BIOS will result in CPUz showing 1.168?
I have the stock HSF, with artic silver 5, with decent case airflow, in a very cold room, and about to get an antec 200 case. And RAM has heatsinks.
Thanks.
p.s. My VBAT is set to 3.02, what the heck is that?
