Won't get over 1 GHz

[SpEeDyGoNzAlEs]

Hi there!

I can't get my TBird to go over 1 GHz stable! It boots up nicely at 1 GHz, does some really stressfull work (burn in, prime...), but it sometimes crashes at that speed with RA2... All this at 10 x 100. If I raise FSB, I can't get over 102 'cause the CDRW won't record any more.

So now I am VERY stable at 102 * 9.5... But I would like to get more of it... I also tried increasing vcore, vio...

I really would appreciate help from you guys!

Thanks! :)

what hsf r u using?

[SpEeDyGoNzAlEs]

HSF from CoolerMaster... A lousy one, something 51... Why?

52 is pretty hot to hold a stable oc. I'd get better cooling before you did anything else.

YES!

I finally did it!!

I increased VCore to 1.85 and VIO to 3.69, set the multiplier to 10 and FSB to 102 (the maximum I can get, higher than that my CD Burner won't work properly!!)!

It's working at 1020 and stable as hell!!

I've been doing some 3D modelling, some video editing, I've run Sandra Burn In for about 5 hours and the maximum temp I got was 57C... Kindda hot, but my HSF just sucks!! :( System temps are about 29, 30 C !!

But I'm rigged with voltage values.. Could it be just a bad PSU? Check pic below...
I can't post the pic now... But values are around 5.3 (+5V), 12.3/11.7 (+12V) and same for all others.. I have peaks of about +- 0.5V... Is this too bad?? :(

yeah I'd like to know what acceptable fluxuations are so if anyone is knowledgable about this I'm curious. I get about .4+-
