**Official ASUS Striker II Formula Discussion/Review/Overclock/Guide/BIOS Thread**

[securedigital]

Hello!!

I have recently adquiered a new harware computer.

Asus Striker II Formula
OCZ 1066mhz 5.5.5.12
intel QUAD Q6700 (2.6Ghz)
Asus Geforce EN 8800 GTs 512mb ddr3 ("new one")

I'm having several troubles with the motherboard, in especial doing OC .
I have updated the BIOS to the latest (1303). I tryed for several hours, changing the values to do a proper OC, and I was unsuccessfully.

If i set the values over 2,9 Ghz, the Operating systems gets a critical error about hardware malfunction,becoming the system halted. (typical blue error screen)

Moreover, on this motherboard i was unable to see the option to change the CPU core clock where is it? anyway I tried on modifing the multiplier and the fsb-ram options intending to perform a smooth OC (3,2 Ghz ratio 1:1) but I was unable.

I add some snophots of my config, anyone could give me some hints about doing this properly? for example i couln't raise the CPU clock to increase the FSB and lower the multiplyer heading to perform a 1:1 ratio & smooth OC.





I would really appreciate a sample config, or an explanation what i'm doing wrong. I have heard about some BIOS options bein enabled produces inestability & improper OC. I have no idea about if i concern to unset some values before doing OC.

Another point, i tryied to set the default OC values that offers the motherboad, those that have preestablished values to imporsonate doing OC other quad core series, and only the first one (2,9ghz) can be settled without system inestability, the other preconfigured OC values are not workable, this is quite weird...such a CPU is capable to hang up to 3,4Ghz, 3,5Ghz perfecly.....

Thank you very much
