Hi, this is my new board and so far I am alien to it. I havn't overclocked since my 2500xp mobile days which is about 2 years now (includes reading forums on overclocking).

Opteron 165
7800GT
Tagan 480w

After playing about and reading drips and drabs im beginning to get somewhere. I thought this memory was good quality but now reminds me why my old system was poor when ramping the fsb up. Its corsair xms matched pair of 512mb cl2 ver 2 which is BH6 i think. It never like over 210fsb even slackening the timings.

Anyway with most settings on auto I currently got the cpu @ 235 and memory running slower yet reading about 193 according to CPU-Z.

Runs Prime95 fine at this speed, I just want other users with this board to post their settings with what it does so I can push my setup further.

TIA

Ok, this is from memory so take it with a little salt:

HTT Speed: 4x
FSB: 241
Memory Divider: 166
CPU Voltage: 1.425V
Multiplier: 11x

This gives me the memory running at 193/4, with the CPU at 2650Mhz.

Hope that helps.

The thing is with this board the divider is confusing. I set mem to 333 and running cpu on 235 htt so its at 2.12Ghz and ram is at 198 htt.

Try flashing the BIOS and see if that lets you up the overclock.

Also, read around the subject of A64 overclocking and do things gradually.
 
if the memory is holding you back you could lower the divider and then up the fsb and should give u a nice clock. would give you the numbers but i get fed up always trying to work it out and just see what i can get :)
 
I can drop the mem divider to 266 but then my memory is underperfoming by miles. Current settings have moderate overclock yet still running mem at stock. Two instances of prime get the CPU temp to about 45c which is ample for this retail heatsink unit.

When I get some more money I may get a better cooler. I have read now though that 3200 ram with tight timings is better than higher mhz stuff with looser timings so I may just hold onto this ram longer.
