Phenom 9500 w/ MSI K9A2 Platinum

[Swanie]

First of all, a few quick pointers to you oc maniacs.

Try these HT*Multi, if booting these then surely wait at least 3 minutes before resetting if it doesn't boot 1st time.

1. Keep NB 8x multi and try 240 x 11 (2640)

2. Keep NB multi 7x multi and try 265 x 10 (2650)

3. Keep NB multi 7x and try 260 x 10.5 (2730)

4. Keep NB multi 8x and try 250 x 11 (2750)

Now I know you're probably thinking "WTF, we can't even get 2.5G stable or plus 230HT so what's he talkin about??" -> but wait.

When I tried oc, Phenom had holes and hotspots. Those above combinations were the most stable and best for me and they worked with very good volts/temps.

Make sure to put 1.2VID or 1.25VID and try 1.475VCore too until you get it stable, then try lower. I'd like to see if those combinations run good for others (see the RAM though, it will be plus DDR2-1000)

I usually had 75ns but for high HT ref. you'll probably need 1st DIMM at 105ns and the rest at 75ns should be fine. MaxAsyncLatency affects bandwidth.. a lot.

12.5k should be quite easy.




They gave the pic of the old board there though.

Different color slots is dual channel, they wrote the manual incorrectly.

Your tRAS should be higher to 18 and your tRC should be 23 at 1.8V to stay inside rated specs. Those may add instabilty to your system unless you know it can do better.

Hi there KTE. just flashed to the new beta bios POH and used your first setting. This is what i am getting now with the different settings. I have noted that my NB is now different to my HT ?
