Well i am running at 10x150=1500 stable. At a idle temp 0f 36c, load of 39.5. I have mushkin pc2400 and seeing as i havent even gone over 150 yet i would think i can go higher,i can boot at 8x167 and that is the highest i can get the FSB, at stock voltage.

my vcore is 1.75v and can go upto 1.92v, mem votage is 2.5v and goes up to 3.5v. I still think there is more in this chip, what do u think is better to raise now, the multiplier of the FSB some more. Also does upping the memory votage make the mem more stable for FSB ocing? If not ill just up the FSb @10x and when it dont boot ill up the vcore 1 notch, and see if it will get stable unitl i hit 1.92. Or should i drop the multiplier to 9-9.5 and go for

I have stock BIOS, but i have newest BIOS if i need to flash. This is at TURBO settings, just need some input on what combo's yall might try

Also i am at TURBO settings, is there a place to set individuial settings of should i try setting to fastest or fast, instead ot TURBO

Thats a great little chip there. However you will probably have to lower your settings to fast or lower to run at a higher stable FSB. You could even try upping your memory voltage first before doing this.

upping the fsb voltage DOES make the fsb more stable

nice double post- LOL

I thought it might help but doesnt seem to do anything, i cannot seem to go above 150 with a 10x multiplier, even at normal settings. default meme voltage. I tried upping it to 10x152, and mem voltage +.10 but i get a KMODE excaption error. I think the problem is my 250WATT PSU, my 400watt had to get RMA'ed and its on its way to me , but im stuck for now. I can boot at 11x140, and 8x167. But id like to get 1600 or more. Anyone got any specific settings to use, im not sure where cas is in BIOS, but i can see somewhere to set 2, and 2.5. mem access time?
