Man, im already ****ed...
I can run my cpu at 174x10.5=1827 at 1.775v while prime95 torture test for one straight day without a hitch. As you should note, i have a corsair pc3200 cas2 stick far below spec. With this speed it can run fastest timings and 1t flawless.
Anyway, if i do sandras benchmark, my memory bandwidth sux!!! i cant keep up with pc2700 score . so i thought lets change multi and higher fsb.... well, even being the cpu at the same speed like 9.5x192=1824MHz and the memory at rated specs (2-3-3-6 1t) prime 95 gives out errors after 5 min... i sad f*ck it, lets try most lagged timings.... SAME RESULT!!!!
Now, the cpu isnt the problem since its proben at that speed, corsair is corsair for christ sakes!!! i cant have a bad sample... not even at lagged timings. That leaves out maybe the northbridge... ill try to put a small 40mm fan on it and keep you guys posted.
Any other ideas on what is holding me back???
Forgot to mention, at 192mhz fsb my sandra benchmark is barely on par with pc2700 even with most agressive timings... GRRRRRRRRR
