M3A overclocking

[KTE]

Got it KTE,

2nd from the bottom.

OK. That clears things out.

I thought memory on the K10 is derived from the NB clock not the CPU clock?

Yep.

For reference: Those figures do not apply to K10 Phenom as it works out the clocks unlike K8. Those clocks Gearge posted about doesn't apply to Phenom. You can run memory dividers through the BIOS and get full 800 or 1066 speeds with Phenom. CPU/NB speeds are worked out like this:

CPU Speed = (1/2*HT ref.) * (FID+16) / DID
NB Speed = HT ref. * (FID+4) / DID

Memory, I'm not sure what is happening internally but on the outset, this is how it'll work:

Mem Speed = HT ref. * DRAM Divider

As far as I'm aware.

So lower multis work on M3A

Very nice Achim. Lower NB FID works on all boards as far as I've seen. Good to know you have it working too!

I would try Unganged mode instead, it'll give you better bandwidth and lower latencies.
