[cincyrob]

very nice OC's guys. been away for a bit. got that work thing going on..lol

ok finally got me some 1066 mem(corsair dominators) ploped them in this morning and took it to 475mhz fired right up
http://valid.canardpc.com/show_oc.php?id=714880

every thing is running smoothly right now. i havent tested anything yet thats next.


now i dont know what all i need to tweak so i will just post what i have tweaked. could you all tell me if im missing anything. im sure i am

vcore in bios= 1.350v
freq=475x8.5
mem strap 2.00D
mch 1.28v
mem volts 2.1v (mem rated at 2.1v)

going to run IBT then Linx and of course some prime95

please guys am i missing anything that is something major that i dont know about yet. i know this chip will do higher i just dont know of what else i need to be doing to get it higher


EDIT:
ok all i cant get it to do 4.03 stable ive taken the vcore up to 1.4125v
mch upp to 1.30v
mem up to 2.2v
it freezes on me everytime i start IBT. linx will only pass the first 2 test then fail on the third one.

ive backed it down to 3.83ghz
and it has passed IBT but not linx which is a suprise.
its running Prime95 now so far all is well there.

these dominator sticks can they handle 2.2v factory setting is 2.1v
right now for 3.83ghz i have vcore at 1.325v in bios with the vdrop it is at 1.232v. should i take it higher?

here is what im doing now with prime95. should i be useing a different setting in prime95?
