Well first off I'm new to overclocking and would like some tips.
CASE: NZXT TEMPEST EVO
MOTHERBOARD: P5Q PRO TURBO
CPU: C2D E8500 CO @3.16mhz
CPU COOLER: COOLER MASTER HYPER N520
RAM: MUSHKIN (996527) 4x1Gb DDR2 800MHZ 5-5-5-12
GPU: VISIONTEK HD4890 OC EDITION (ZEROTHERM COOLER EDITION) @950/1050 IS THE FACTORY OVERCLOCK
HDD: WD640GB 7200RPM, WD 320 5400RPM, HITACHI 500GB 7200RPM
Im using Artic Silver 5 as well.
Ive gotten to 3.362mhz stable but want to go higher (temps under 60c @ load) while running Prime 95 and using the TurboV software that came with the mobo. My cpu/ram ratio is 5:6 and my ram is at 424.8mhz on that oc. i would also like to know how to make my cpu/ram ratio something like a 1/1 or closer. Im running everything on auto in the bios except my ram timing . It runs at 5-5-5-18 on auto and i had to change to the proper timing to 5-5-5-12.How should i go about raising voltages and fsb when developing the overclock in TURBOV
If you need more info about my rig just ask.
Thank you for any help.
