Cheverge

I have never overclocked before, I have been reading into it alot and I would like to try it out some. I just want to safely get a little more from my system.
My system consists of Abit AW9D-Max board, with Q6600 Quad Core CPU water cooled, 3X1 gigs of Corsair XMS2 CM2X1024-6400 MAX Bandwith PC2-6400 (400MHZ), 8800GT water cooled, ThermalTech Armor case, 4 120mm fans on cpu Radiator, 2 120mm fans on video card radiator, 2 120mm and 1 80mm fans pulling into case 2 120mm fans pushing out.
The cores are running at core 0=33 core 1=30 core 2=32 core 3=34. If you need any other info or dont need all this info feel free to let me know or edit this post. Here is the info from Everest. Im not sure where to start, I was thinking setting the ram, but I;m not sure. Thanks in advance for the help.

Man that was very helpful, thanks guys.

swingman011

wow! what a long post you got there. i would advise you to get a good psu and ram before anything else.

Cheverge

What ram would you suggest, mid priced of course. Thanks

Cheverge

What is wrong with my power supply, Im just not sure why I need another one. Thanks.

linderman

Ok for starters ........... why is sytem set up at 350FSB x 7 = 2450 ?

your cpu is normally expected to be on a 266mhz bus x multiplier of 9 = 2394mhz


I would try bumping things up to 320 mhz x 9 = 2.8 ghz (we can go higher after checking that stable first)

your memory is going to be a stumbling block seeing as how you are running 3 sticks of memory .......... that forces you into single channel ram mode which is undersirable

ONE matched pair is better for overclocking -vs- 4 sticks

in your shoes and budget minded .............. I would get these

what is the make and model of your power supply ? it takes a high quality power supply to overclock especially when running a water cooler system


for now you would be better trying to overclock with two sticks of ram and get back into dual channel

download cpu-z and OCCT (for stress testing)

you will need to bump your cpu voltage to 1.35

bump your ram (vdimm) voltage to 1.9 volts

and try that .............. stress test for atleast one hour with OCCT

abort the test if you reach 63C or higher

I just got 2 1 gig sticks of OCZ Reaper PC-6400 DDR2 800MHz Memory, this would be much better than the three corsairs, or should i get one more corsair?

linderman

two sticks are MUCH easier to overclock .............. start with that ............ then later move to four when you get familiar with the overclocking settings

Cheverge

Is the reaper any better than the corsair?

linderman

which one is rated for tighter timings and higher voltage


the lower the CAS numbers (5-5-5-15 is better than 6-6-6-18) and higher voltage rating is better ............ 2.1 is better memory than 1.8

linderman

make and model of power supply ???????????????

Cheverge

Power Supply is 700 watt thermaltake toughpower psh 700v.

linderman

good power supply for overclocking

Cheverge

I tried the setting you gave me and it wouldnt boot past logo screen or get into bios, had to reset cmos. I have
external clock 272
Multiplier factor x9
Estimated cpu 2448
dram spec by spd
estimated dram clock 408

voltage control auto detect
cpu core voltage 1.3125
ddr2 voltage 2.00
mch&pcie 1.5v

linderman

bump cpu voltage to 1.35 and try again

Cheverge

I changed the cpu core voltage to 1.35, I changed the external clock to 320, and the ddr2 voltage to 1.9, and it wouldnt boot past logo screen, even to bios.

linderman

try cpu-1.35 clock at 300 ddr2-1.9

what bios revision are you running now ? use cpu-z to answer that?
