guide for OCing 1055t? havent been an AMD boy since 939

[Hagar]

sorry i dont mean to sound rude,
but was that meant to help me or are you just using the thread for bragging? :S

Responding to OP for safe settings for OC 1055T, was meant to help, sorry if sounded like bragging but the more info out there....................


..............to get your highest FSB, reduce the memory multi down as low as you can, also set the HT and NB to below stock, raise it only when you have the max FSB at a safe voltage and temps for the CPU. Put your memory voltage up to 1.6V+ when you see what your memory will do at the FSb you have chosen. Mine will boot at FSB 265 however it starts to become a bit flaky and I have not changed NB or other voltages.

It may be an idea to try a lower CPU multi, to get a higher FSB, I started at 12.5x and got 3300MHz with 264 FSB, then I pulled it back to 250 and raised the multi in 0.5 steps.

ah sorry <P
no it just seemed like a lot of infomation that i mostly knew,
but of course you dont know what things i know, so of course we have to start with basics when troubleshooting.

okay, i just lowed the NB to 1.6ghz and HT to 1.4 and set my ram multiplier to 4x (the lowest), on my 230 frequency and checked it booted okay which it did.
so i then changed to 240 which of course pushed my NB to closer to 1.7ghz and the ram up a lil bit too, but still 300mhz under stock.
and it gets to the windows splash screen, then cuts to "windows is loading files" and a grey loading bar which quickly fills up.
then my computer restarts like before.

and now the bios is getting stuck at the "scanning drives" screen which i forgot to mention it was doing when i was setting it to 235 originally.

im going to clear the cmos again to get myself out of this one.

Cheers

Have you set the Pci-e clock frequency to 100 (or 101 sometimes), take it off auto. This stops it OC'ing the buses which may give problems with disk drives.

last night when i was trying to overclock it on my own i had it set to 100 for a while,
but i set it to auto in the end to try and eliminate possibilities.
of course il go back over this today if its necessary to troubleshoot.

so iv been making some other changes,
basically something funny was going on with my ram but i cant make prime fail ram tests now after switching the ram cards around so i dunno what was going on.
iv got a stable overclock at approx 1090t speeds now.
but if i push it just 5mhz higher, then i get to loading the OS and get

"The File May Be Corrupt. The File Header Checksum Does Not Match The Computed Checksum"

this is after pushing the cpu frequency to 235mhz
i have the CPU voltage at 1.4, i didnt increase the voltage from my 230 overclock that was stable right before.
but i did increase the CPU NB by 0.25V to make up for it being at 2120mhz because of the overclock

if anyones got ANY ideas id much appreciate the help
