Ok, I'm all out of ideas (K8NNXP)

[Marquzz]

I have a gigabyte K8NNXP and a 3200+ cooled with mach 1 and whatever I try I can't get past 230 MHz fsb. I've about everything one can do, 1:1, 5:4, 3:2, tried different slot, 1.5-1.9V vcore, up to 3V vdimm, LDT@2, 2.5, 3, maxed all other voltages. Tried tight, relaxed and auto timings, clocked within bios, clockgen and nvidia sys util. If anyone has any suggestion of what I can try you are most welcome!

Regards

Marcus

What harddrive r u using??? maybe the pci speed is toomuch for the harddrive...

try this....overclock from windows using the easytune and clockgenc...i am sure u can get past 230mhz easily

I'm using seagate b-cuda IV, they suppose to like high PCI. And as a said, no matter how I overclock, bios, clockgen whatever, it just freezes up, 230 is go, but 235 just freezes.

I'm desparate now :(

What happens at 231??

[Marquzz]

Hehe, well, never really tried 231... The thing is that I should be up at 260 with no problems, I just don't see what's wrong...

Sometimes and its an odd one but increase AGP voltage +.1
might not help but have had cases on otherboards where it has.

I'm afraid that's not an option on this board :/
