I bought a 939 venice 3800+ and even running it at 2.6 gig (220) fsb it is still not stable, EVEN WITH 1.71 V CORE!

Memory is fine. Tried it at 250FSB with a multiplyer of 10, refuses to boot. Loathed to put more on the VCORE as I don't want to melt the chip as it's on air.

I have a DFI Lanparty RDX200CF-DR - any suggestions?

Thanks.
 
The chip is one month old. I now have finally got it stable by running the memory at 166 and not 200. Temp wise the motherboard reports 50 degrees, that is after a lengthy session at Rainbox six Vegas. Not sure how to alter the HTT on the DFI board, anyone know how to to that?

Oh and 2.4 is standard for these chips.

Thanks.
 
Ok update. Got it stable at 2.7 gig, HTT x4 225 FSB 1.525 Vcore, memory at 180 FSB. I think that is all I am going to get. Is that a poor overclock?
