The Maximus Formula Thread - Help/OCing/Guide/Rampage conversion

ah i see.. that one works for you.. i had so many issues on mine with 333 and 333 strap, 4x1 crucial pc8500 (1066) with all the other settings close to yours just trying to get a stable stock clock with e6850 on air. it was running ok but it would error out every once in a while after a couple hours of playing a game. i went to the 400 strap now at 3.2 and tried ai moderate and it seams to be stable.. i thought for sure it was my memory but now i can run test on it for 8 hours or more and no errors where before it would only go for 10 min. before my first. i pulled my hair out for a month wondering if it was somthing with bios bad memory or somthing other. now i can begin to play with clocks a little more. getting water first though..

Happy OCing

@eSp!s0
Try goldmemory with THOROUGH test for 1hrs pls

"The problem is when i set the fsb higher to 266"...
Any of you know how I can resolve? thanks very much

I tested 1 full pass Memtest 2.01 (~25minutes) and over 8hours OCCT Ram. Also I played BF2 and CSS a long time, everything without any errors/problems. That`s enough for me

yes ok but when you have time try 1hrs~ of goldmemory very best for me over all software...

I forgot to say that I also did Prime Blend-Test over night. Together with Memtest2.01 (today 2passes, ~50minutes), OCCT Ram for over 8hours and gaming 2hours it`s enough for me to say system is stable.
I don`t need any other programs for myself to feel that system is stable



I tested 515x7 for OC yesterday and I also made this little comparison to 450x8.

pull the chip for a few mins with power removed ofcourse

Try this and doesn't help. Any more ideas?
