i just tries 1600 and multiplier of 6 and the bios wouldnt even load I had to reset it on the mobo

The reason I said 1707 in particular was its over 425mhz fsb which changes the NB timings. I couldnt run it at 1650 but 1707 works. Avoid any number with a zero on the end and remember to change the multipler to 6

Also if it wont boot, turn it off completely for 1 to 5 mins and it should at least load the fail safe

6x425 is only 2550mhz. Your cpu can do that and I suspect your motherboard will too. Unlink the ram also

thanks ferret

Are you using the newest Bios Revision? 0401 I think.

silversurfer · 22 Feb 2007 at 23:49

I havent changed the bios version, no need imo though you have a newer cpu model so who knows

What volts did you use when you tried. did you unlink the ram, just run it at stock till later on

ferret face · 23 Feb 2007 at 00:44

yes I'm using latest bios, i've tried auto volts and 1.375 and 1.4 on the core

2.1 and 2.3 on the ram

just doesn't go past 2700mhz whatever i do, it wont even boot...

1.4 set in the bios ? That is not enough then, try edging it up some more. Turn on +100mv also. I presume this cpu is as voltage tolerant as a conroe

I dont know if these 4300 oc differently but try 1.7v on the nb also. Forget the ram for now, keep it simple. Your coolign the nb with a fan right

cheers silversurfer I've upped the volts to 4 and its now at 3ghz
