DB Updated. :D
Still need to know what voltage you're running DriveEuro.
2.7v, sorry. 2.6v seemed to work fine though also.
I can't tinker with it now. I'm getting another dual Xeon 1.6LV up and ready for F@H :D
argh, i'm going to have to run some cl3 to get back in the top 5, lol
Nugzo... Is your ram stable day to day at 285mhz with 2.8v? I was thinking about pushing a bit more...

What AMD64 is hittin 2900mhz stable atm? besides the FX's. I cant afford them.
I got a question about A64 Tweaker.
When you change values in A64 Tweaker, and click set. Does that become the default values of your computer? If not how do you make it your default values, meaning when you boot up your computer the timings you adjusted before is what is in effect?
I suppose I can manually set them in the Bios, but my Bios doesn't have all those parameters. Sorry for the noob question, but any help is greatly appreciated
When you use A64 Tweaker it only temporarily sets those setting until you restart. Once you restart the bios reconfigures the timings according to what you have IT set to. Also, in A64 Tweaker you can hit File - "Apply settings at startup". That will make A64 tweaker set those setting every time you boot to windows.
DriveEuro and Wazzle, if you guys could get me a screen of super finished, not in the menu, that'd be great. I know it's the same thing, but it'd make some people feel better.
Got one for ya ! 285mhz !
Using 704-1 bios
All auto settings execpt for trfc of 14, tref of 166mhz 3.9uz, and setting memory speed to FAST, 2.8v

Updated, Major takes first place! :toast:

My X2 tops out at 2860 using 11x and memory at 260, with the 10x it maxes out a little less so I'm playing with now to find max with 10x multi.
So go for 286 !! you will be safe ! :D
LOL Good luck! :slobber:Quote:

Voltage? 2.8v still or more?Quote:

Well guys, here is the deal so far (very preliminary)
I had some issues this evening with well how can I put this, it stemmed around finally the NVIDIA Raid array creation process. What would happen is I created my Raid 0 on 2xSATA raptors 36GB well after consequental reboot the bios would NOT go to where it tries a boot device, would do everything up to that point, processor and mem ID etc. Since this is my first DFI board I really had no idea what I was doing, I tried to set memtest upon boot and it didn't work so I thought I was missing something to get it to work.
Long story short everytime I reloaded to optimal settings I could boot to XP boot CD, finally I narrrowed it down to the Nvidia Raid, I wiped the drives and instead of optimal stripe size I selected 128k stripe size and to wipe the drives again.
Now at 5am I am testing... testing... so far I am only doing memtest86 I have tested 250, 260, 270, 280 FSB and no errors test #5 is the most torturous right? I have ran the 4400+ at 2600 so far but naturally with no XP OS yet I am unable to prime test the cores.
Can someone please help me out and give me the links to all the verification pages so I can be as helpful to everyone else as you all have been to me in making my newest PC upgrade decision? Basically what version of Prime and what other utilities are the best to guarantee I give accurate overclocking results and verified results.
Look forward to providing much more information tomorrow, incidentally if this CPU and RAM overclock like a champ it will be the first time I've gotten lucky in my selections in about 5 yrs. Running ram at 2.8v btw going to try 290 next 3-3-3-8 1T default and all set to auto in bios don't know how to tweak yet
Well I did 290 and failed then went back to 285 and failed on test #5, however when I went back into bios I was going to tweak a couple settings to match Major when I noticed my DRAM was set to 2.6v :confused: must have been when I was troubleshooting POST issues and reverted back to optimal settings.
Anyway back at 285 again and 2.8v this time, hoping to pass memtest86 @ 290 after 285, lots of cooling on the ram I have 3x120mm and 1x92mm fans right now waiting on 2 replacement 120mm fans that are 50% more CFM and only 41db
Strange, setting to 2.8v started to give me a couple errors in test 4, even at the previously tested OK @ 280fsb test 4 gave me some errors.
I went to 2.7v and 280 is ok now again. Perhaps this set of ram doesn't like voltage too much?? I find it a bit odd since the specs of the ram are 3-4-4-8 2.8v. Oh ya and I wonder why it autodetects at 3-3-3-8 instead of the specs posted on crucial's site...
Going to try 285 again because it had only failed at test 4, don't think 290 will make it but will try 285-289 and see how I do at 2.7v
If anyone has some ram tweaks to try in bios I'd like to know
Just started testing my 2 x 1 Crucial B Tracer sticks. I`m running them on a IC7- MAX3. I use memtest 86 for testing.
Tested 250 , 3-3-3-8 @ 2,8v ok
Tested 255 , 3-3-3-8 @ 2,8v fail
Tested 255 , 3-3-3-8 @ 2,6v ok
Now testing 260 3-3-3-8 @ 2,6 ...
Looks like this modules prefer low voltage.

My crucial hated voltage also. it seems to get a little beter with time. I have yet to see a set runnin 3-4-4-8.Quote:

I put back to 250 again, running 2.7v maybe I should leave at 2.6v and try the 280 again? Seems I had good luck when I forgot to mess with voltage lol, but on crucials site it does say 2.8v
