I am having trouble holding my over clock. I had been using 8 X 388 for a 3.1 but the CPU host frequency keeps defaulting back to disabled thus causing my system to run at 8 X 266 = 2.1 (E6400). I am now using a 9 X 345 = 3.1 so if I restart or shut down it will at least run at stock 2.4. I have the voltage set to auto (optimized) so it increases from 1.375 to 1.40 when both of the stated over clocks above are in effect. Any ideas????????
I get into the Motherboard Intelligent Tweaker to enable the CPU host frequency which allows me to increase decrease my FSB but for some reason after I make my selections and save it reverts back to default settings. When the system is booting up it shows 345 X 9 initially then it shows 266 X 9. Sometimes the oc will hold and I can benchmark it but if I restart my system after virus updates or msconfig changes it will lose the oc but the values are still there just not enabled under the MIT -à CPU host freq (disabled). How do you take a screen shot of your bios?
If my settings are being reset, is either a battery issue or there are some Intel ?automatic? crap features on for bringing the CPU back down to the speeds it think it should be at? How do you turn them off?
Ok this is starting to piss me off, this board will not hold any OC after a shutdown or restart period. I was running my E6600 @ 3.060 (9 X 340) 4-4-4-12 core temp 36 39 idle
core temp 52 53 load CPU Vcore 1.375
DDR2 = 2.1, PCI-E = 102, Mem mult = 2, +0.1v to MCH,FSB, PCI-E
I ran orthos with these settings for 8 hours the highest the temps got with full load was 54,
should be stable right? After trying to devise a strategy to acheive a 3.2 OC after I come home boot up the system and it's back at default 9 X 266, what gives? All of the CPU throttling functions were disabled even during the first encounter
any suggestions on a new board??
