AMD 940 Overclocking

[simbady]

Hi, I think it's time i overlclocked this AMD 940 =). I see lots of people have mangaged to get to 3.5GHz on stock volts, but when i try this i have to increase the volts (not by much). Any ideas why this is?
Also i am looking to get around 3.7Ghz(ish) what would be the way to go about this upping the multi or lowering and upping refernece clock? My Ram is @ 1067 so i could eaisly lower the ratio and start it at 800mhz.

you need to raise your cpu-nb multi slightly x12 at 2.5v cpu-nb vcore should be good and a htt of 24. didnt find much help here regarding fine tuning but found this which is an interesting read

its all about keeping the heat below 55c it seems

p2 940's are 3.4 on stock volts 3.6 on 1.4 and you should be able to get 3.8ish on 1.5 but thats were the heat really starts to creep in which is what starts to really affect overclocking on the p2's.

EDIT: also have a look at the threads in the signature of Dulk over on the ocforums... might give you some extra info that you could use
