Alright, theory time.
I have my 955 stable at 3.8 with stock frequency and just running the multiplier at 19.0.
so 200mhz freq X 19 = 3,800.
For 4,000 all I would have to do is raise the multipler to 20... right? Well it crashes.
Temps don't even get a chance to raise, you tell it to go up and it just stalls and goes black.
I am wondering what other methods might get this thing to 4.0 stable.
Components and mobo boot settings.
ASROCK M3A770DE
2 gb PC 12800(1 dimm) OCZ DDR3Black Edition RAM @ 800 mhz (1600 mhz capable) 6-6-6-15 (8-8-8-24 @ 1600)
Phenom II 955 3.2 stock, 3.8 current (42 idle) 200 mhz, 19 multipler, 1.440 volts (cpu-z rated)
Cooler Master Hyper 212 Plus
I can get it to sit at 3.986 when I turn the HT down to 6, and the frequency to 190, but as soon as I try to run a benchmark it crashes.
Moved multiplier up to 19.5 while typing this message, still stable...
What else can I do?
