Good evening everyone. I need some help trying to get a stable oc with this mobo. I've owned this board since Dec 06 and I really never found the sweet spot. I've read the stickey for this board on the site and tried a few settings but to no avail, I'll either get it to boot into xp then BSOD or fail to start. My sys consist of the following components:
AW9D MAX BIOS 1.7 (updated today from 1.5)
CD2 E6600 w/THERMALRIGHT HR01 w/COOLING DUCT 120mm (cpu)
EVGA GTX 260 216 55NM
GAMXTREME 700
CORSAIR DOMINATOR DDR2 PC8500C5DF 2X2 4GB
WD 250 X 2 RAID-0
WD 74GB RAPTOR
SILVERSTONE TJ09
WIN XP SP3 32BIT
Here are some of the settings I've used
373X9 3357 (This is my everyday setting)
MCH 1.70
CPU 1.35
DDR2 1.95
DRAM SPEC DDR 667 (4:5)
N/B STRAP PSB 1066
375x9 3375 FAILED
MCH 1.6
CPU 1.4
DDR2 2.10
DRAM SPEC DDR2 533 (1:1)
N/B STRAP PSB 1066
380X9 3420 FAILED
MCH 1.65 / 1.70
CPU 1.45
DDR2 2.1
DRAM SPEC DDR2 533 (1:1)
N/B STRAP PSB 1066
Okay these latest attemps at further OC my machine I've been using the 4GB kit from Corsair. My most stable OC came from the 2GB kit that I sold. Can anyone see what I'm doing wrong? My level of experiance is Novice, I know enough to be dangers. I think my problem is with my memory settings not really sure about the ratios.
