My chipset is not letting me go any higher I think...
(p4 2.4 @ 3455 SL6RZ). Upto 192 FSB, everything is rock stable.
194 FSB, active cooling @ chipset helps it to be rock stable.
Without active cooling @ chipset, I will get problem playing games.
Now, anything higher than 195 FSB, things becomes rather unstable no matter what voltage I use for CPU, GPU, etc. And especially unstable with GPU used heavily.
I am thinking that chipset might be getting short end of stick at this point. (Memory can go much higher AFAIK, CPU seems to work fine independantly as prime 95 will not crap out at all when instability starts happening... it always is when GPU is used heavily). Temp is not an issue really with 2 peltier on GPU/CPU and northbridge feels luke warm with 92mm fan blowing on top of chipset (luke warm).
I am left with 2 choices... (canterwood/spring dale) or v-mod the MB. I would appreciate it if someone can give me input on where I can get v-mod for P4G8X DLX.
