When using OCCT I notice you can use the slider between CPU and RAM...I can't seem to do that, when I click on it, it just moves the whole thing...also I'm using Everest and when I select it under "Monitoring" it tells me "Shared Memory Disabled!"
Am I doing something wrong here? Thank you for any advise.

I might have misread your ram volts I thought I saw 2.8 ( yes after looking I was um....wrong) your ram volts are fine
for 3.6GHz or higher I set CPU PLL to AUTO, you can check cpu pll in the bios
Tools>Hardware Monitor scroll down and you'll see it.
Set OCCT to custom and you can move sliderQuote:

Ok, I'll change the CPU PLL to Auto. I did see that it could be checked in Hardware Monitor, was just curious if it could be checked in Everest. Guess not.Quote:

Just curious.. How do you get the slider? I have the latest OCCT 1.1.1b but do not see a slider when I select Custom.Quote:

I wanted to oc my Q6600 g0 , so tried setups of the forum here , tried my own , but no boot . 267*9 = no go . Tried everything : The voltmod , bios flashing 0907 , dividers on ram , container on it , nothing worked .
What the hell is the problem ? Can somebody help me ? :)
Grtz
Where do you get 1.2.0? All I could find was 1.1.1Quote:

I currently have a dilemma with this board: Tight memory timings or high memory frequency. I have a set of 2 GB OCZ Alpha Titanium that
can do 750 MHz at 3-3-3-10 with 2.2 volts or 1080 MHz at 5-5-5-12 with 2.25 volts. What do you guys suggest?
Higher frequency is always better on Intel platform.Quote:

I am happy with all my results so far Im running my CPU perfectly at 3.88 with 10 hrs Orthos FFT stable.
Now the problem i have obv is my ram. I have it stable at DDR2-1146 pretty much but my Subtimings are pretty bad- I have it at 5-5-5-15-3-"52"
as you can see the 52 there is what i want to change- the options i get are 20,25,30,35,42- I cant even change it to 42 by upping volts to Vdimm or vNB i cant get it to work with trans boost to auto or disabled and clock twister to light or moderate and even dram static read to disabled- nothing...
I have no ideas what to do other than just leave it alone and roll with it- It kills bandwidth in 3dmark06 and sisosftware- My CPU mark in 3Dmark06 goes down by like 350-400 marks. But in realtime games- I lose only 1.3 FPS per sec in most game- which isnt that much. But Still it would be awesome if i could get it lower and have it stable. Here are my settings!

you need 1.2.0.B06Quote:

leave it. I'm clocking higher and the NB temp is 50c load. cpu temps are alot higher though. :ROTF:Quote:

What would be considered the safest max voltage for these chips?
As it stands I'm prime stable with small FFT's. 3.6ghz @ 1.44v.
Next up will be some memory tweaking.
i still have intermittent start up problems.
so far i am using the profile 1 setting for the ram. think this is causing the problem. what is a safe setting and voltage for the ram if i am not going to overclock it, pls?
should i run it at:
4-4-4-12 2t at 2 volts?
thanks in advance.
Ballistix is rated for 2.2v. Half your issue is undervolted RAM. Set yout RAM for 2.15 and this will yield you 2.25v as there is about a .10v overvolt on this board.
thanks. will give it a shot
I cant really understand this board with my Ballistix, They were Rock stable @ my P5K deluxe @ 1167 5-5-4-9 / 1200 5-5-5-12 @ 2.05v with Dram static read control Enabled. Now I cant even get 1133 ( 425x9) with same timings and even tried 5-5-5-15 up to 2.17v........still cant pass OCCT ( havent tried prime blend yet) but according to memtest86+ it was 14 hours stable @ 1133 5-5-4-9 @2.00v with both dram static enabled / transaction booster enabled/ clock twister...... I tried disabled all and put clock twister to light, even transaction relaxed to 1. still wont pass OCCT, even @ 850mhz 5-5-5-15 all disabled..... could it be MY default primary and secondary timings are to tight? They are: primary: 3-42-6-3 second: 8-3-5-4-6-4-6. Tried btw 0802/0903/0907(currently) all same prob
