quick question ? !

psychas · 12 Nov 2007 at 19:24

were to switch ram 1 : 1 ?

thank you for answer

DavidB · 12 Nov 2007 at 19:36

in the bios under the divider/memory settings, depends what motherboard you have though

psychas · 12 Nov 2007 at 20:01

p5k same in my signature

psychas · 12 Nov 2007 at 21:02

just went in bios did find anything about that. :confused:

DRAM Frequency.

just checked it you can set frequency but you cant set the ratio in it i can chose from 667, 800 , 889 , 1067 . it is set on auto at moment.

still confused were is that ratio thingy :confused:

Zefan · 12 Nov 2007 at 21:12

Some don't have the ratio setting, they allow you to choose the frequency manually.

psychas · 12 Nov 2007 at 21:15

so should i leave it on auto im trying to overclock should i do something with ram ?

Is your CPU still at 266mhz? The P5K doesn't offer a 533mhz (1:1) memory option at 266mhz. You won't get a 1:1 option (586mhz) option til you overclock it to 293MHz.

Set it to 667mhz until you get to 293MHz.

kk i do that then i get back to you thank you

edit: its at 266 at moment i start tweaking it up tomorrow get back to you then

kk did that now running on 293 x 9 , ram frequency 586mhz , ram timings 5-5-5-9, everything on stock volts what should i do next should i like change ram timings or its fine increase volts on cpu or ram ?

Set your correct memory voltage before going any further. I wouldn't touch its timings til you've finished clocking the CPU.

Then just keep upping the FSB. You'll probably get to 333x9 before having to touch the CPU voltage.

doing it now stand by for conformation

running now on 320 x 9 tried to go up 333 but at 330 windows did not boot and window popped up said overcloking failed i was guessing that cpu need more voltage.

few more thing i noticed in tat that first core is much hotter then other
and cpu-z, with ai suite jumps around. heres the picture

edit : im using b3

Cob · 13 Nov 2007 at 14:29

It's not unusual to have one or two cores hotter than the others.

is it normal ? :confused:

edit : so what do i do now ? for some reason it shows 480 x 6 but its 320 x 9

Cob · 13 Nov 2007 at 14:41

You have Speedstep enable, and it drops the multiplier to x6 to save power. The lowered multiplier confuses some software. CPU-Z will always read the correct current speed.

Do you still get the same temp difference under load?

And I would just up the vcore to get more FSB.

kk how to switch the speedstep of? and ye ran ortos now still approx 5 c difference maybe there is lack of thermal paste between core 1 and waterblock but i added arctic silver 5 as it shows in a guide a line... :confused:

by how much should i increase core voltage ?

Cob · 13 Nov 2007 at 14:50

Some of the chips aren't quite flat and this results in the temp difference (I had an 11c difference with mine).

C1E Support and Intel Speedstep Tech are the options to disable if you wish to disable Speedstep.

And I would increase the vcore by 0.025v at a time.

mh cant find were to download that speedstep can you be more specific plz

+ i lapped my cpu to 1500 grid and waterblock to...
