Gigabyte MA790FX DQ6

Try small fft's just to rule the ram in/out, on the 667 divider. If it crashes it's the cpu if not, then it's ram.
Being a K8 you can afford to give the ram 2.2v, it's probably rated to 2.4v.

Try that and post back.

Will do it today evening when I get home. Ram is rated 2.2v so Im a bit sceptical to go above 2.1v since I dont have active cooling on it (TRUE makes it impossible to put a blower on the modules).
Can u tell me how far can I go with chipset and htt voltages? ATM they are arround 1.35v.

BIOS was successfully flashed to F5c,just got a small error after flashing to F3 bios,it said "Backup BIOS checksum error" or sometn and then restarted,I guess thats normal process of updating the backup bios?


\\\edit: I just ran the small FFT test and it passed fine,for 15-20 min.After that I even tried lowering cpu voltage to 1.4v instead of 1.42v and it passed again.. blend test keeps crashing tho.I gave ram 2.2v for blend test and it didnt help.Chipset voltage and htt are 1.35v.HTR voltage IIRC is 1.30v. \\\edit 2: CPU runs for 30 mins on 1.37v,small FFT test,it crashes on 1.35v.

How many of u are using Easy tune pro for overclocking?
Im getting some weird issues lately,I cannot put 300x11 directly on 1.37v which proved stable in max FPU small FTT test in prime.I have to go 1.42v,then 1.4 and then 1.37v.Whenever I try to set 1.37v directly it crashes immediatly.Does someone know why is this happening? Should htt be increased slower,first 250 and then 300 or it doesnt matter? This could be the reason why i cant get ram stable on 942 MHz 5-5-5-15 on 2.2v.Maybe 2.3 is needed first and then lower it untill a stable voltage is found...Im confused to say the least
