Hey all,
Does anyone else happen to use this motherboard ? I'm wondering if the pci clock is bugged, as whenever I overclock the system, my X-Fi XtremeMusic starts acting weird and I get stuttering, sounds cutting out & sound placement errors when in games using EAX or Miles. When everything is @ stock, the X-Fi is fine.
Specs :
Athlon64 3700 ( San Diego core rev DH-E6 )
A8N-SLI SE ( using the bios that came with the board, which is the latest )
1.5gb Kingmax PC3200 ( running in single channel - ram was good for 230fsb on my old NF7-S v2)
X-Fi XtremeMusic
Gainward 7900GS
Realtek 100mbit pci card
Overclocked settings :
HTT - 4x
FSB - 250
Cpu multi - 10
Ram divider - 166mhz
Ram timings - 7-3-3-2.5 ( also tried 7-3-3-3 & 8-4-4-3 )
Pci Clock Sync - 33.33mhz
PEG Link - Normal
PEG root control - disabled
PEG buffer length - auto
I know it's not a large overclock to lose over stock settings, but the extra fps it provides can make the difference in making some games just that bit more playable.
Any help would be appreciated.
