My first overclock ;D

Well, i've just overclocked for my first time, woo go me

Got a question, i've been upping the FSB by 5 at a time, like I read. And I got to a point were my comp's booting up and the windows loading screen appears for a split second and then the PC restarts.

Do I need more volts? or somthing :rolleyes:

Lowed the FSB by 3 and it works fine.

Yo guys

My hardware:

AMD 4800 X2
Ballistix RAM PC4000
Pure Inovation Motherboard - I think this is my problem, it's a realy good board :rolleyes:

I got the CPU to 2.6 Ghz, any higher and I can't load windows, I've lowerd my HT link to 800 mhz.

RAM's @ 2.8V I think
CPUz says my CPU voltage is 1.35 :\ I havn't changed the CPU voltage.

I'm not quite sure how to change the RAM divider, do all motherboards let you change this?

Any more info, just ask ;P

Thanks ;P

I've changed the voltage to 1.4

But can't go any higher than 220 FSB, just keeps rebooting at the windows screen. Temps are 52 C idle with 1.4V so I wouldn't be able to go much higher anyway hehe.

Need to upgrade my cooling kit before I can go any further

I've got a reserator on my CPU and GPU lol, no fans >.<

I'm going to add in a 120mm rad to help cool them down
