Hi,
Been trying to re-find a stable OC after upgrading from 2GB to 4GB RAM.
So far:
Have tested everything at stock (Orthos blend 30+ hours)
Tested the CPU up 2950Mhz (orthos small fft 30+ hours) (i previously ran it at 3Ghz with no problems when i had 2GB RAM)
Tested the RAM up to 450Mhz (5-5-5-15) (12hrs memtest)
FSB tested up 1400Mhz (large FFT 30min). The board is within spec upto 1333Mhz.
But at 328 bus x 9 multi = 2952Mhz, with FSB 1312Mhz, DRAM 410Mhz always crashes Orthos running the blend test after a few hours (at least 9hrs). I'm at a loss to know what is causing it. At these settings everything should be fine.
I'm using an MSI Neo2 FR board, which is great, but i noticed that if i increase the Bus above 300 it automatically cranks a few voltages to their max settings (SB, IO, and FSB VTT). Could all that extra voltage be causing issues elsewhere i wonder.
Anyone got any ideas what to do next?
