Asus M3A78-T + 9950BE overclocking... wow its all new again

That's one great result right there man !
For a dude coming from 3800+x2 you are managing the Phenom and taming it rather well .

Thank you Im pretty sure that this chip can atleast boot at 3.5ghz+ once I get this whole thing figured out. I still have not touched HTT yet tho I suppose that I should start doing that soon.



Im still tweaking it and trying to get it stable, tho Im having alot of issues. Im starting to wonder if the problem is more Vista64 rather than settings since even at 1.55vcore, 1.45v cpu nb and ram set at DDR400 and 2T with 2.2v I still get crashes in orthos all the way down to 3ghz.



Im going to install XP again and see if things are better. One thing that I do not like about this board is that while Vcore goes upto 1.8v, cpu-nb voltage caps out at 1.45 in bios.




Update: Im now running the ram in unganged mode and things are much much more stable. So far its beed running orthos blend for about 45 mins at 3.2ghz without crash where before it didnt last longer than 3 mins. I think Ima stick with vista a bit longer and see how things go. Once I pass a couple hours of orthos or get impatient Ill work my way back upto 3.4ghz+ and then Ill try to push the nb some more.
