Official DFI LanParty UT X38-T2R(and LT) Discussion/Review/Overclock/Guide Thread

[carmatic]

guys ive just popped my q9450 into my x38 ... thank goodness it didnt get fried instantly when it booted up with the overvoltage settings from my old q6600 (1.54vcore, 1.4vtt)
now i am trying to get it to run at 3.53ghz which is the max overclock i achieved with the q6600... im thinking of using the same settings as before, but with the vcore and vtt reduced... as of this typing its still sitting in bios
this is my voltage setting

can someone tell me what does the cpu n/2 ratio function in this screen do? i can open the menu that chooses enable/disable but when i press enter on 'enabled', it is still 'disabled' and its impossible to enable it


::edit:: right now its so unstable it wont even install vista, im trying to find the vcore and vtt settings, and blindly using 85 - 105 for the core gtl settings to see what would actually work

::edit:: got windows to start installing after looking at http://edgeofstability.com/articles/...fault_gtl.html , 1.32 vtt, 92/90/109 gtl
if only i had a live cd now...preferably filled with programs like prime, occt, memtest and stuff like that
