Hi all,

I have a slight problem I think my ram is holding me back, Unable to hit 3.6 GHz stable.
I have loosening the timing to 5.5.5.18 but it will not load windows just reboot after splash screen. My vcore is 1.34v & memory 2.2v.
Would it help if I upgrade my memory to OCZ 6400 or above?

Any suggestion would be appreciated.
 
What are your setting?

If they're what i'm thinking 400fsb 1:1 2x multiplier your ram is at 800mhz?

If so they should be able to handle it. I have some 667 value ram that's at 900mhz right now.

have you tried upping Vcore?
 
3.6GHz is asking quite a bit out of the CPU...especially with such low vcore. The ram is certainly not suspect here.
 
Try 1.39 and see if it posts. If it doesn't up it to the next voltage. I'm at 3.15ghz and my system wouldn't post at anything less than 1.4. So, you might need to go a lot higher.
