Glockgen allows me to OC in windows. Have you tried it?

 

[JBDan]

No I had heard not very good stories about clockgen but I am willing to give it a go. Your on WinXP? What ver of clock gen you use? Thanks in advance

Yes, I fried my 9800 with clockgen. I got very careless with a motherboard that did not have a AGP/PCI lock.

I used CG-ICS950405.

If V Sync was on I wouldnt of got above 60 FPS.

 

[JBDan]

OK so you like higher FPS scores I see lol. I like the smoother gameplay of v-sync thats why I asked. Enjoy your oc and go for higher maybe 2.5 just use the 3:2 divider to keep your mem at 200 or below or if ya got the $$ get some pc4000

Well...I could try and enable it. Wouldn't make much difference in performance since I was all ready pushing the limits before the upgrade. Now I can enable 4x AF. Textures on the screen were blurry in a distance without it. And the distance was actually quite close. At least now, if I enabled vsynce, it wont dip down below 60 FPS too often.

TX for ClkGen I like

Yes, it excellent. Remember though - you are down one fail safe. When OCing via the BIOS and windows fails to boot, it's actually a good thing. It did not let you fry your hardware.

 

[JBDan]

LOL I will keep that in mind TY.

You didn't have to up the Vcore, nice. 2.4GHz is an easy OC for the Winchester core. 10x 240 is nice because it's a perfect 200MHz on the RAM.

As far as upping the HTT... It doesn't seem to have any benefit for the A64.

CPU-Z says I have a 939 Newcastle. I had the latest ver last time I checked. Sandra says I have a Clawhammer... lol

1.26 cpu-z should fix that Newcastle reporting (if ya care) but Sandra says the same for me . A clawhammer? is what it says lol

i have amd 64 socket 939. its at 1.8(200 x 9.0) but when i try to get it past 2.0 (fsb 222 m 9.0)it becomes unstable freezing or not rebooting. i have to clear the CMOS to set it back to its original settings for it to boot. ive heard of people oc 2.5 or greater. how can i do this?

420 watt power supply

Brand?

 

[enzo7224]

power supply is atx and mobo is msi k8t800 pro

Whats you HTT at?? if its at 5 set it to 4, if its at 5 that will amke it very instable.

Make sure you run PC3200 on a divider. You should see it under Memory configuration. Set it off from Auto and choose limit. Then use the 5:3 divider if you want to get over 2.4GHz. If you don't you'll be running the RAM at a faster speed than what it supports.

Also set the HTT from 1000MHz to 800MHz.

 

[enzo7224]

what should the memory timings be?

Whatever your RAM is stable at normally. Like I said in a previous post...

If you put your FSB at 240, and HTT at 4x (960), and set the divider on the RAM, you will get a perfect 200MHz for the RAM.

It's actually a sweet OC, with everything except the CPU being within "normal" specs. It's also usually atainable w/o a Vcore bump.

 

[enzo7224]

sry im a nub at this can you explain what a divider is? my htt is at 1000 so i should move it to 800mhz right?

 

[Arguman]

I have also Samsung value Ram running at 2*225mhz, 270Mhz Fsb and my winnie 3000+ at 9*270:2430Mhz and i get throught prime95 100% stable. but i want further oc. Tried 278FSB but fail whithin 10 seconds in Prime95.

Its seems many whay to get further but can anyone give me some hints.
The HTT running at 2*1080 and what will happening if i lower that value?, or limiting the ram to 2:1 pc400?. I have vcore at 1,55 and ddr at 1,8.

see sig at 1.55 vcore
