what voltage for 3.2?

MiNxYyY · 10 May 2008 at 16:31

atm my cpu is @ 2.4 x 4,what voltage would i need to do if i wanted to achieve 3.2?

363 x 9 = 3267 = 3.2

any suggestions?

depends on the Q6600 but you might get that at stock or just a little more, would run 400 * 8 keep your RAM at 'normal' speed

im at 1.26v for 3.2 @8x400

well depends on the VID of the CPU, as 1.26 could be below his stock volts.. in general u should be ok on stock you might need to up it a little

i have tried this and used 400 x 8,loaded into windows and checked CPU-z

results were :

core speed = 2133.4MHz

Multiplier = x8

Bus speed = 266.7

Rated FSB = 1066.7

This isnt right is it?

have you switched speedstep off?

MiNxYyY · 10 May 2008 at 17:16

Ye,c1e and E1st are both off as someone said to.

what speed does it say in bios?

MiNxYyY · 10 May 2008 at 17:29

it doesnt show in bios,ive checked every part of it and it doesnt show.

point decay · 10 May 2008 at 17:32

strange, when you boot your pc, bios doesnt give you the core clock, mem amount, hdd's etc?

MiNxYyY · 10 May 2008 at 17:35

ah ye it does,

i just set my bios to 333 x 9 = 3GHz and also set voltage to 1.3000

loaded into windows ok,checked CPU-z,and im still at 2.4,with a bus speed of 266

i dont know why it keeps resetting itself back to default

do you have your mem at 1/1?

what do you mean by this?

point decay · 10 May 2008 at 17:43

before oc'ing your mem should be at 1/1, as if you have issues you can rule it out as a root cause to any instability etc, it could be causing your OC to revert to defaults..

MiNxYyY · 10 May 2008 at 17:50

i couldnt find where i mem should be 1/1

I think it's like 1:1.00 in the gigabyte bios if I remember correctly from my P35-DS3

I'll have a look, one sec
