I give up. Bought a Scythe Infinity and 40mm fan for my NB in hopes to get more out of my E6300 but it has made no difference at all. It seems I've hit a wall at about 410+ 1:1 mem timings. I can't get any higher without it either locking up in POST or BIOS or not POSTing at all. I've tried an array of different voltages, like maxing everything out, i've followed all the guides in regards to BIOS settings, mem timings and cpu features to disable and nothing can help me get past this point.
I can run 7x405 stable for hours but crashes at anything above 410+. I know my ram is good for 525 fsb because I ran it at 2:3 and it passed some rigourous Orthos large FFT testing and Super PI. My temps are fine even at 1.5vcore (i dont run it this high, just for testing, no higher then around 60c in AI Suite or 55c in Core temp. My NB is only warm and same with SB.
My thoughts are the motherboard is not good enough/does not have enough options avail, but I've seen other threads where people are getting over 500 fsb on these vanilla's OR my PSU is holding me back. It's only a Super Flower 420W. Looking at buying the Silverstone ST56ZF
What are your thoughts guys? Is it the PSU?
