Unfortunately that is not the case as I already tried these settings even played with some different GTLs settings acording to other charts my probing the MB and getting the same percentages...Originally Posted by SNiiPE_DoGG
justintoxicated, i didnt know you weren't raising your VTT volts, head up to 1.35 in bios (1.34v actual) and your proc should easily get to 3.6 seriously the vtt and 1.6v on the NB will give you that ability to do at least 460 fsb with this board.
i posted a gtl chart over in the x48 thread for you a lil while back, that should help with changing the VTT up
It seems to me I can get away with having my GTL's set incorrectly if I boost Vtt voltages, the more Vtt the more headroom I have for not having the correct GTL. I WAS increasing NB CPU and Vtt but have been working on lowering them for the past week. Unfortunately GTL charts are only somewhat helpful every proc mb may be different. GTL charts should allow you to make a good hypothesis abotu your own setup though! My chip does not match other GTL charts at all.
But hey check it out now! I'm 3200 mhz stable without adding voltage to anything else! Vtt is now at 1.100 with some nice GTL adjustments! leaving them at default levels I have to add a bunch of CPU and Vtt and maybe (dont remember exactly) NB voltages.
Now the next step is to lower GTL's until I'm not stable once I get these as low as possible I will calculate percentages and try for higher clocks keeping them set at this ratio.
Its my new hypothesis that when people switch boards and achieve much higher overclocks (under 500 FSB wise at least) that the MB is simply adjusting their GTL's closer to the CPU's needs. At least to some extent. I do think the DFI board is very capable esp under water, but the Auto GTL settings are no where close to what my CPU needs to achieve higher FSB.
GTL's are KEY!
I have to get to work but I will explain my GTL hypothesis when I get to work.
