Overclocking: Fatal Error (Rounding)

dr. sarf · 18 Oct 2007 at 11:42

on my motherboard I had to enter the Bios and then press Ctrl & F1, that then allowed me to access "Advanced Chipset Features" where ram timings can be modified, though this may be different for your Bios/Motherboard.

I think the stable limit is 3.33Ghz, cant get it to run anything over that without the system crashing.

Nice AMD clock :cool:

What is the stock speed (MHz) that your RAM runs at? It'll more then likely be the increased speed that is not allowing your RAM to tighten up. Though I have to say, that is a cracking AMD overclock!

I think its 667? And I think its at 740 now, if I got my readings/figures correct. I dunno lol.
Maybe I should replace it with the more expensive 1066 stuff lol. No, calm down, I had a budget and I stuck to it. :eek:

That's why. I'd be happy with what you're getting mate. Not a bad effort!

Cheers mate - couldn't have done it wothout the hlep from you guys on here.
Funny really, I'm wanting to push it further like this, I mean this system is such a dramatic improvement over my previous, you'd wonder why I'd wanna overclock at all..

AMD Athlon 3200+ 2.2Ghz
2GB DDR Crucial RAM
Geforce FX 5500 128MB then onto ATI x1650Pro AGP 512MB

Then there's my partners Celeron 633 which she uses that came with 64MB SDRAM stock..... :rolleyes:
