OC probs :/

[kaze]

First of all I will tell you some info on my computer parts:

CPU : Intel Pentium 2.4C m0 1.525v: BX80532PG2400DSL6Z3 , BATCH: 3328A213 Pack date 08/28/2003 cooled with phase change.

ABIT IS7-E VTT mod

TwinMos Winbond BH-5 512mb PC3200
TwinMos SP BH-5 512mb PC3200

ATI Radeon 9800PRO 1.65vagp

Seagate Baracuda 60gb IDE
Seagate Baracuda 200gb SATA
Seagate Baracuda 120gb SATA

First of all I can't reach the results I did on watercooling. The CPU with water ran at 267x12 @ stock voltage 5:4 2.8v 2.5-6-3-2 GAT AUTO AUTO AUTO AUTO. This was with an ATI Radeon 9700PRO and my winbond BH-5 + 2x256 CH-5. I have tried to run the "same" settings as I did with water but I get errors in prime95 pretty fast. Can someone plz help me with BIOS settings or if you got any ideas on what could be wrong? :(

If you added something better (9800 Pro) then I'm assuming that there is a power problem. What power supply do you have?

Try putting the 9700 pro back in and see if you can get the same results as you did with water. I'm betting your power supply is the problem.

If you often get random atifacts when gaming / ben ching (and even in windows!) it can be due to insufficient power being provided to your gfx card...

I would recommend you dedicating one 12v rail just to the 9800pro and have another rail for the hdd and other peripheals.

Hope this helps,
Alec

Thanks for the answers guys, I don't get any artifacts, it could be the PSU but honestly I don't think it is.

3.3v @ 3.3v - 3.31v
5v @ 4.97v - 5v
12v @ 11.92v - 12.05v

This are when running SuperPI

The 9700PRO isnt mine, and ive tried with a Riva TNT2 M64 to :/

*Edit* What about PAT? Shouldnt I enable it by "strap cpu as FSB 667" , 250fsb 5:4, or even 1:1 ?

You changed your ram from 256x2 to 512x2 of different chips man.
Try 2.0-2-2-5 instead of 2.5-3-2-5. If that doesn't work then increase vdimm.

Nope, I had my TwinMos Winbond BH-5 512mb and added 2x256 CH-5. I just recieved my SP so im doing a lot of burn in, I think its pretty hard to find the correct voltages/fsb to burn in. What about GAT settings ? I got a booster and VTT mod, I know you shouldnt trust the values you read in BIOS, but before I got the booster 2.8v was in fact about 2.75v. I put the booster on max and in BIOS i got 4.05v, it shouldnt be possible right? I will see if it happens again then I will take a picture of it
