18 Apr 2007 at 18:58 #3 IceShock IceShock Soldato OP Joined 16 Dec 2005 Posts 4,054 Location Halifax W'Yorkshire oh and plus if i take it up, my ram will be at 450mhz. i currently have it at 416mhz at 4-4-4-12. would the timings be fine still at 450mhz or will i need to take the ram voltage from 2.1 to 2.2v ? thanks

18 Apr 2007 at 19:10 #5 RaiderX RaiderX Soldato Joined 18 Feb 2007 Posts 3,159 Location Wirral set your RAM to run 1:1 with CPU, then RAM should be same FSB as CPU (355MHz)
18 Apr 2007 at 19:10 #6 IceShock IceShock Soldato OP Joined 16 Dec 2005 Posts 4,054 Location Halifax W'Yorkshire to get that, do i use 666 setting as the ram frequency?
18 Apr 2007 at 19:11 #7 IceShock IceShock Soldato OP Joined 16 Dec 2005 Posts 4,054 Location Halifax W'Yorkshire aka the one below pc6400 setting? oh and plus for 3.4ghz what voltage do you reccoment, its a L630b core. the voltage is on auto at the moment, whats the stock voltage btw?

18 Apr 2007 at 19:14 #9 IceShock IceShock Soldato OP Joined 16 Dec 2005 Posts 4,054 Location Halifax W'Yorkshire its at 5:4 at the moment. so i need to change the ram to double the cpu frequency for it to run at 1:1?

18 Apr 2007 at 19:31 #12 IceShock IceShock Soldato OP Joined 16 Dec 2005 Posts 4,054 Location Halifax W'Yorkshire sinc mode? btw i just tryed 3.4ghz all the way up to 1.5v and it wouldnt boot into windows. dropped it to 3.3ghz (367x9) at 1.4v it fired up 1st time. it seems stable so far so i think 1.4v might be too high. only got it at 5-5-5-18 at the moment at 367mhz ram. 1:1 its at. if i decide to stay at 3.3ghz shall i take it up to 5:4 again so its at 458mhz? thanks

How are you cooling your CPU? Mines at 3.3GHz stable but I can't go higher as my temps are around 57C on a Scythe Ninja rev B
