Good work MusicIsMyLife.

Thanks, but I only collected some information and put it together.

A quick few things:

Your motherboard options and even some BIOS mapping values are going to vary from one board to another so be careful in what you name the guide (make sure you name the BIOS version you used as well as the boards early on because there are differences). For instance, MSI K9A2 Platinum doesn't have 0/1 for CPU/NB DID but divisor 1, 2, 4, 8, 16. 1 corresponds to 0 and 2 to 1 and so on.

The BIOS values for DRAM on MSI 790FX are:
1:1
1:1.33
1.1.66
1:2
1.2.66

Although in windows they will show up as 1:1, 3:4, 3:5, 1:2 and 3:8 as you stated.

Good point. I will add that.

Disable Spread Spectrum Control and extra hardware/ports on your board before OC.

Keep MaxAsyncLatency (MaxReadLatency) and tRFC high when trying for high HT ref. OC.

Very good point. I forgot to mention this in my little guide.

Lol, did not know you have an account here. Info's are spreaded around different threads with dozens of pages, so i thought your summary is usefull here.

I don´t post much on XS, but I read lots of threads. It´s nice to see that my guide seems to be useful.

Ah ok, that was the "Breaking the 230MHz ref HT Wall" thread i guess.

Yes, exactly.



The guide is placed in a part of our forums, where every registered user can take part and write down new information or can correct wrong things. So I think we will have a topic which will be up to date for a very long time.
