Overclocking a AMD Athlon x2 245 Regor

Hey Bear,

I just decided to overclock a budget build that I did about three weeks ago. I am still new at this, this is only my second overclock. Here's a screen shot of my moderate overclock for 24/7.



I posted on an earlier thread asking about a 240 regor. Seems that some have gone as high as 3.7, so there is some head room. As you can see my temps are good. I used stock voltage (1.35) and lowered the ram multiplier so as not to overclock my ram. I don't feel confident enough to give you advice, as I am new to this as well. The community was very helpful. You will probally get some replys that are familiar with your bios for specific advice for settings. Read the "Sticky's"on the the main overclocking page, that's the best place to start after reading your MB user guide.

System as follows

AMD Athlon II X2 245 Regor @3.480 (240X14.5) stock voltage
AC Alpine 64 heatsink
Gigabyte GA-MA785G-UD3H
8GB (4x2) OCZ Blade DDR2 6400 2.0v 3:5 ratio 800 mhz 4-4-4-15
WD Black 500 GB 7200 SATA
WD Black 1 TB 7200 SATA
Avermedia Hybrid h788 TV tuner
BFG 8800 GT OC2 (I forgot to increase the fan 61c )
CM Storm Scout Case

Edit"

As I said I am a noob. After looking hard at my monitoring software, I noticed that my HT Freq was at 2400 mhz.... found this"

"there was a test done, i dont have a link, but they levied the ht freq from 200mhz to 1000mhz, there was no difference in performance, i was skeptical, still am, so dont drop ur htt to 200mhz, just decrease the multi by however much is necessary to keep it as near to 2000mhz as possible"

I need to make this adjustment.
