okay, i have 512 megs BH5. my board wont give it any more than 2.9, and i seem ot be maxing out at 223FSB.
However, last night, i decided ot try and get more from it. the next step up is 225, and it get seeros in under a min in prime at that. (my memtest disk is just gicing me some weird numbers...if anyone knoes about THAT issue it would be nice too )
however, i'm stable at 223X10. even 223X11, if i put the vcore up a bit...
Hwever i'm dissapointed wiht my FSB. i know my ram can do more, so i loosened my timimgs up. before i kept them at 3-2-2-2 (the 4 numbers in my bios, in order...dunno what they are, but the last one is CAS latency)
anyways, i changed them ALL t0 3. it wouldnt POST! just ram error beeps.
so i put them back to 3-2-2-2. works fine. change them as high as they go, (something like 15-7-5-3) and it still wouldnbt post. beep. beep. beep.
anyways, i'd like to know what more experianced people can get out of BH-5 at 2.9V, and what their timimgs are.
i tried to learn about timings once, it diddnt end well...
i'm posting this to figure out if my RAM is being a whack job and holding me back, or if ite my motherbaord....because my chip is screaming for more FSB....i think...could it be my chip?
