I've overclocked in years gone by mainly on Intel but a few AXIA Athlons...

Now on my current mobo there are SO many options that I need some advice

Trying to overclock an Opty 146 on a Winfast (Foxconn) 6150 mobo so into "Superspeed" options and I have

Performance options ("CPU freq" I can understand and "PCIE Clock").

PCIE Spread Spectrum DISABLED - ok?
SATA Spread Spectrum DISABLED - ok?

but now I am getting confused with....

Hammer Fid Control - STARTUP (but could be X4 800mhz all the way to X10 2000mhz)
Hammer Vid Control - STARTUP (but could be 0.825v to 1.550v)
VDIMM 2.6V (standard, I set memory at 166 to allow for overclocking to its recommended 200 as FSB increases tend to increase mem clock no?)
VCore Voltage +60mV (needed it seems for stable 2.5ghz)

Basically I am confused by the Fid/Vid and two sets of voltages....

Gratefully taking advice from AMD gurus out there!!! My son wants "his" machine faster than "mine"..... :rolleyes:
 
Thanks for that....

I am still somewhat confused as to why two diff settings for voltages for CPU

Hammer Vid Control - STARTUP (but could be 0.825v to 1.550v) - I left this unchanged

VCore Voltage +60mV (needed it seems for stable 2.5ghz)
