Help with OC and timings

[Andybtsn]

Hi guys,

Spec:

Asus P6X58D
i7 920
OcUK Value 12GB (3x4GB) DDR3 PC3-12800C9 1600MHz RAM

I followed this guide to achieve 3.2mhz OC, albeit my voltages are higher as my machine kept blue screening. Trying to go higher than 3.2mhz seems not possible at the mo due to the same issue (BSOD).

Can someone advise what my timings should be to achieve a stable 3.6mhz?

You are using the settings from the guides ram not yours.


I would loosen your ram timings 9-9-9-24 or even 10-10-10-24 at 1.5v as rated for your ram.

Thanks.

So if I changed the BCLK to say 170, should I amend anything else other than the ram?

Your CPU Voltage seems a bit low. Try 1.25 or 1.3 and then see how high an oc you can get but watch the temps.

Just change your ram timings and voltage for now and try to get your system stable . Once this is achieved up the BCLK by one and then test if alls well increase again. At failure point you want to add more cpu voltage to become stable.

Keep an eye on thoose temps.
