Greetings,
Decided to give my E6300 based system a revision with Windows 7 and a new OS drive along with another 2 gigs of ram (for a total of 4). Made the updates, and the FSB400 overclock I had been running for three years failed.
New memory (mushkin) matched the old (corsair) in speed (5-5-5-12).
Started to read that 4 sticks of RAM is a bit tougher for the northbridge to handle versus 2 sticks on P965 chipset systems. That true?
I've tried throwing a bit more voltage at the northbridge and RAM, but still can't hit FSB400.
FSB333 seems stable, but I haven't stressed it yet.
Anybody with an older system/memory of dealing with the Asus P5B have any tips as to where I can start to see if I can get to FSB400 with 4 sticks of RAM? Thanks!
