Hey guys. Just got a new setup a couple weeks ago. Q9550, p5q pro, and
G.SKILL F2-8500CL5D-4GBPK PC2-8500 4GB 2X2GB DDR2-1066 CL5-5-5-15 memory kit.
I've never overclocked before so I read tons about it. I have it stable now at 3.4 ghz after testing with prime95 on blend mode. The settings are:
Vcore: 1.25
FSB: 400
PCIE Freq: 100
Strap to NB: 333
Dram Freq: 801
Dram voltage: 2.1
Everything else is auto.
Now I've tried to go up to 424 fsb with vcore 1.3, vtt 1.36, nb 1.36, cpu pll 1.50. It fails the blend test in 2 mins.
So I tried backing it down to just 404 fsb with the original stable settings and it fails within 2 mins too.
Any ideas?
