Hi guys, I thought I'd have a go at overclocking my i5 750 before I get my hands on one of the new ivy cpus at the end of the month.
I've read around the internet loads and I kind of get the basics of it.
My system is above cpu with:
asus P7p55D mobo
4Gb (2x2Gb) Dominator ram.
So far, I've set the multiplier to 20x, and increased the bus speed to 160Mhz. I set the Ram to 1600Mhz and in the advanced settings entered the setting for the Domitator ram (9-9-9-24).
This booted into windows then hung as I was opening cpu-z, core temp and prime95. I rebooted a few times but it kept hanging.
After playing around with the settings abit its been stable on Prime95 for about 15 mins with max temp 61 degrees.
The settings for this are with bus speed 155, giving me 3.1Ghz, but its just less that 1600Mhz frequency on the Ram.
Any chance you could throw us a few hints how to get past this point? Or pointers on where I'm going wrong.
Cheers
Nathan
