Ep45 -ds4 Gigabyte and q6600 running 3.6ghz

RAM is OCZ PC6400

Erm, I just slapped the FSB to 400, and threw CPU Volts to 1.3v and it booted fine.
Been there ever since.

I must add though, that it was kind of a mistake cos the E6300 was at that, and I should have gone in steps, but its done so what you gonna do?

PCIE to 101 of course...

I think thats all I did actually? - I can check if you want, but that means a restart and its not done it for so long Im not sure if it remembers?
 
The PCI slots are 33.3Mhz
The AGP Slot is 66.6
PCIE Slot is 99.9 ( ok, 100 )

Now, when you overclock, the PCI / AGP / PCIE Slots also get overclocked by the same ammount.... Or by the same percentage

For example... ( Requires a minimal bit of basic math )

The CPU is 200MHZ FSB

Now, its multiplier is lets say 10

So, in english money, thats 200x10 = 2000Mhz, or 2.0Ghz

Ok, this is easy peasy so far, so why the PCIE at 101

Well, the PCI=33 the AGP = 66 and the PCIE=100 as we said earlier on, the CPU is 200 and thats the same as PCIE x 2 or in reality, the PCIE is FSB / 2

So, the PCIE will be 200/2 = 100

Now, lets say we overclock the CPU to 210 for example... This will then also overclock the PCI/AGP/PCIE so, based on the math PCIE = FSB / 2 will mean 210/2=105. So, your PCIE port will in fact not be running at 99.9 but will instead be running at 105Mhz... Forcefully overclocking the PCIE card... The PCI ports will also be running faster too... In our example the PCI will be FSB/6

So, anyway, the PCIE is at 100 as standard and adjusting the FSB will also adjust the PCIE and PCI slots...

Setting it manually to 101 will make sure it is set, while setting ig to 100 will make the system think its not been set at all and will clock it regardless.

Ok enough... That should explain if you can work through the dribble.
 
Thanks for that FatRakoon,that makes sense,and i never knew that..i have my pcie set to 101,i just never knew why
