Do you really need 8Gb (I assume that's 4x2GB)? I can get to 3600 stable @ 1.46v with 4GB and can boot Windows at up to 3800 @ 1.5v - try with 2 sticks and see if that helps OC

2 sticks vs 4 sticks doesn't make much difference the only way i an get into windows at 3.6 is at 1.5875v per the bios i dont have a dmm to test that that actually is but it isnt stable after about 10min it BSOD .
thanks for the help guys right now im workin the bus up 1mhz at a time

Xerran, what is your RAMs? And how much modules? I have your MB and waiting at x4 955 BE and must buy any 1066MHz RAM. I heard, with 4 modules 1066MHz can be troubles...Thx[/QUOTE]
2048MB x2 G.SKILL (F2-8800CL5D-4GBPI) DDR2-1100 @ 5-5-5-15, the same RAM in my sig. It's much harder to OC with all four DIMM slots populated but I have heard it is possible with overvoltage on the CPU NB. Maybe someone here has expertise on that.

No i think the AM3 boards have still trouble to get high RAM frequencies, maybe in a few weeks with newer bioses
I also have trouble getting a high NB clock when having high HTT Base freqs..

Particle's First Rule of Online Technical Discussion:
As a thread about any computer related subject has its length approach infinity, the likelihood and inevitability of a poorly constructed AMD vs. Intel fight also exponentially increases.
Rule 1A:
Likewise, the frequency of a car pseudoanalogy to explain a technical concept increases with thread length. This will make many people chuckle, as computer people are rarely knowledgeable about vehicular mechanics.
Rule 2:
When confronted with a post that is contrary to what a poster likes, believes, or most often wants to be correct, the poster will pick out only minor details that are largely irrelevant in an attempt to shut out the conflicting idea. The core of the post will be left alone since it isn't easy to contradict what the person is actually saying.
Rule 2A:
When a poster cannot properly refute a post they do not like (as described above), the poster will most likely invent fictitious counter-points and/or begin to attack the other's credibility in feeble ways that are dramatic but irrelevant. Do not underestimate this tactic, as in the online world this will sway many observers. Do not forget: Correctness is decided only by what is said last, the most loudly, or with greatest repetition.
Rule 3:
When it comes to computer news, 70% of Internet rumors are outright fabricated, 20% are inaccurate enough to simply be discarded, and about 10% are based in reality. Grains of salt--become familiar with them.
Remember: When debating online, everyone else is ALWAYS wrong if they do not agree with you!
Random Tip o' the Whatever
You just can't win. If your product offers feature A instead of B, people will moan how A is stupid and it didn't offer B. If your product offers B instead of A, they'll likewise complain and rant about how anyone's retarded cousin could figure out A is what the market wants.

Sigh, I bought watercooling so I could get a bit more out of my Phenom II, it seems like im stuck at 3.75GHZ, doesn't go prime stable any higher, not matter how much volt u give it.. =/ Oh well

to time max, with 1.45V, but not prime stable (only with 1.55V) Chew said me, i have not good PSU for hardcore voltage OC
, for 24/7 il go lower, better max 1.45V at CPU.

guys, I ran x3 720BE 0906,but i cant get over 2200mhz NB freq.. but I cant raise it over 2200mhz, and I assume bios is the wall.
what is the best BIOS for DFI 790FXB-M2RSH? and what BIOS should I use to unlock the 4th core?
thx for reply guys..![]()
Just a fast question:
Which would be the best motherboard right now, to overclock a 940BE ?
