Another E8400 OC thread

Urban Reflex · 4 May 2008 at 20:48

Hello all. Looking for a bit of help / advice on my painfully rubbish OC on my new CPU. This is what I've hit so far:

9.0x multiplier = 376.5 FSB = 3.3885Ghz
8.0x multiplier = 378 FSB = 3.402Ghz

I've tried 8.5x, 7x and 6x but they don't provide any joy. Neither does upping the vcore to 1.29v.

What else can I try? Spec in sig.

Unlinked it.

Just as some further info; if I set the CPU voltages to auto it'll clear the POST at 9.0x / 1512 QDR but freezes when loading Windows

Okay I'm at 1522 QDR (380.5Mhz) FSB at 6.0x with the voltage set to Auto. The mobo shows it having 3.2-3.4v being put through it.

And no, I'm not on the latest BIOS because all the BIOS' seem to be a bit rubbish according to the Asus forums.
