1800+ with a7v333 wont oc

i set my multiplyer to 12.5 and my bus freq is at 133

12.5X133=1662.5

i was at 11.5X133=1529.5
but my cpu speed never changed im using asus pc probe to view my speed and temps. All that happened is my temp went up 1'C.
The gay thing is a have a palamino and i cant get higher than 12.5 on my multiples.

ohh yeah does 45'C sound right for stock cpu cooling and 32'C mobo temp. I got a nice antec case with 2 80mm casse fans its relly coldinside and my room is always airconditioned.

common does anyone know what could be wrong??

if you have a palamino and did not connect the L1 bridges to unlock it, then no matter what multi you pick in bios it will stay at default

Darksun, buddy,

can't overclock via multi

Had to find this out the hard way, Palominos will not allow you to change the multiplier, even if your mobo supports it, it will still go back to default (my 1700+ is at 133x11).. You can do the hard connecting the bridges bit, but a much better way is to just raise the fsb, which most mobos now support.. your mobo might support 1 by 1 mhz rise in fsb, or it may only support the 33mhz multiples. Your chip runs at 11.5x133.. you won't be able to up the multi, but you can up the fsb.. if your mobo supports 1 by 1 upping, up it to about 150, it will be no problem with stock cooling (that 150x11.5=1.75ghz, not bad), and if you have good ram, you can go all the way to 166, and 166x11.5=1909mhz is quite an improvement indeed (my 1700+ runs stable at 150x11, but i don't like running it at that since i my mobo doesnt lock the pci bus, but once i get my better ram (i run pc-2100 now) i will go straight to 166x11)
