*** Official AMD Phenom II X6 1055T & 1090T Overclocking Thread ***

Wahoo, finally a proper BIOS for my mobo, BIOS OC'ing here I come! Not that there is anything wrong with AMD Overdrive, its actually quite good, just prefer not to have to run it if I don't need to :p

2006 BIOS if anyone cares, adds Turbo control in BIOS, so you can change the CPU multi and Turbo multi independently, can also disable Turbo completely.
 
maybe someone can help me out, i did few small stability tests so far and its kk , but soon as i put my memories timings to rated speed 7-8-7-24 i get bsod in windows after 1 min or so.

@psychas, try making sure Command rate is on 2T. And that you have set the correct DRAM voltage.

I assume you also bumped CPU-NB volts?

yea command rate is 2t , dram voltage is 1.4 even memory is rated to 1.35 so it should work in theory,

cpu v: 1.3812 in bios
cpu/nb: 1.25125 something like that

edit: i have the same memory as you alex

Do you get BSOD if you run the cpu at stock. Then use D.O.C.P to pick the XMP memory profile (Profile#1)?

And what slots do you have the ram in? If u still get BSOD with the above, then try them in the other slots.

It might just be you need to up CPU voltage, I need 1.4v LLC for 4 GHz and ram running in spec.
 
i'm surprised how low my system is in watts with this cpu at 4ghz. ~245w when idle.

when my pc is on at idle my whole house uses ~548w... but with my gf pc on also it shoots up to 1.046KW lol. that because she as a phenom I which eats up the electric :eek:.

Any software that lets you know that...my missus is always complaining!!

Yeah... scrap that. The 2006 bios is absolutely awful :rolleyes:

Yes you get all the proper BIOS OC'ing options, but it just kills stability and everything takes a ton more voltage to get stable :(

e.g.


CPU

BIOS : 2004 ------------ 2006

3.6 @ 1.3000V ---------- 1.3500V
3.7 @ 1.3250V ---------- 1.3625V
3.8 @ 1.3500V ---------- 1.3875V
3.9 @ 1.4000V ---------- ???
4.0 @ 1.4250V ---------- ???

CPU-NB

BIOS :::::: 2004 ------------ 2006

2600MHz @ 1.15V ----------- 1.25V


So i've gone back to 2004 and using AOD.
 
Nope it's deffo 1.15V (stock) in 2004 (reported in AOD), always been able to run it at 2600 at that.

Can also manually set it to 1.15V in BIOS and it'll be 100% stable.


With 2006 BIOS it's completely unstable at 1.15V, and takes 1.25V to get it back stable again (again both manually set in BIOS, and reported correctly in AOD).

Seems the 2006 BIOS just really messes up the entire systems stability and everything takes more voltage to get the same speeds.
 
well on mine it needs 1.225v for 2600mhz + ram at 1600mhz 7-7-7-20 1t.

i've tried the max core clock on stock voltage ( 1.30v) so far 3.8ghz is stable..
