I have an Asus A8N32-SLi and 3000+ and I haven't got a clue how to o/c my cpu...? :o

In my previous ABit + 1gz socket A chip I set my fsb to 133, and the multi to 10x.
Easy overclock. (133*10).

Now on this new board I'm really confused, there's so many options and nothing seems to do anything, or it just fails to POST.
I can't even work out how it's getting 1.8ghz, the numbers I see don't add up.

Is there a guide, or is it simple? Please help! :)
 
I'm sure the numbers do add up :p


CPU multi = 9x
FSB = 200
HTT multi = 5X
Memory devider = 1:1 (200mhz)

Set the HTT multi to 4x, memory to 166mhz and then raise the FSB testing as you go.

Thanks, I couldn't find anything like HTT 5x?
I set the memory to 166, and moved the fsb to 220. I'm on 1980mhz now.
But If i move it to 221, it moves the multi to 8x and my cpu drops to like 1.7ghz?

Am I doing something wrong? :S
 
First off switch off Cool & Quiet as this automatically reduces the multiplier of your CPU

The HT Multiplier is sometimes called the Hyper Transport Speed. You'll have five options - 1GHz, 800MHz, 600MHz, 400MHz and 200MHz. This equates to 5x, 4x, 3x, 2x and 1x respectively. This is calculated by the HTT x HT Multiplier. You don't want it to go over 1GHz so reduce it to 4x first (up to 250MHz HTT, 3x to 333MHz, etc)
