cool! I just found out that it stood for CPU Intelligent Accelerator and not Central Intelligence Agency.
It is an automatic overclocking thing. It overclocks your processor by the % that you set it to.
have a look here: http://www.hardwarezoom.com/viewcontent.jsp?ReviewID=172&PageNo=2
next time tell us the full name of your motherboard though.

hmmm... forget that thing then, and just overclock it yourself from the bios...
maybe this page might be of some use to you: http://www.pcstats.com/articleview.cfm?articleid=1467&page=4

no no, that 2 2 5 2 are just RAM timings. The 5:4 setting is somewhere else... lemme find it for you...
you're welcome for the linky.
found it.
the 5:4 setting would be on this page in your bios: http://www.pcstats.com/articleimages/200309/8KNXP_Bios2.jpg
see how it says "Memory Frequency For"? That's it. notice how it also shows the memory frequency underneath it.
1:1 is 2.00, not sure what 5:4 and 3:2 are, probably something like 1.66 and 1.33 I suspect.

Okay so 1.66 is 5:4 and 1.33 is 3:2. Here is my problem if i run 1.33 i can go 260 cpu frequency and 346 memory frequency and that is 3.12ghz anything over that seems to be unstable. Now if i go 1.66 my settings are 247 cpu frequency and 410 memory frequency and its 2.96ghz. Seemed to be stable but i dont have a good stress tester except 3dmark03 freebie addition.I dont mess with voltage because it scares me bios tells me its at 1.525 but that stupid easy tune 4 says its at 1.610. I messed with voltage yesterday but had issues with computer going weird. Any suggestions? Oh what is this 247X12 thing that pops up when my computer boots up?

247x12: FSB of 274, multiplier of 12x, giving you 2964Mhz or 2.964Ghz.
Voltage at 1.61v?: try checking it in the bios or another program like MBM5, or the monitoring program that came with your motherboard - not sure which one, maybe Winbond Hardware Doctor.
With the 1.33 setting, it will probably be your CPU limiting your overclock, as you say you were already running at 3.12Ghz, with no adjustments of the CPU voltage.
With the 1.66 setting it was probably your RAM limiting your overclock, as your CPU could go higher than 2.96Ghz.
If not that, then it was your power supply.
Would you mind listing what exactly is in your system? Except for your 2.4C, Gigabyte 875 motherboard, what type of DDR do you have, power supply, cooling etc etc...
also, get a program like Prime 95 to stress test.

Okay you have mobo and processor.
Advant PC3500 ram 2x512mb dual channeled
GF 4 Ti4600
AGI 400w PS
P4 2.4c
Jet 4 Heatsink temps range from 31c (no load) to 43c (full load overclocked to 2.96)
Where do i get Prime 95 did a search and couldnt find anything of relivence?

sorry about that... I should have linked to it in my previous post. my bad.
here's the official website: http://www.mersenne.org/freesoft.htm
everything looks fine, although I am not familiar with the brand AGI, if your various voltage lines look fine there probably shouldn't be a problem.
I do recommend getting a different program for monitoring your voltages though, just to know for sure what your various voltages are sitting at.

okay, it's probably safe to increase your voltage another 0.05v, to stay under 1.65v. If you need to.
for memory, stay at or lower than 2.7v and you should be alright.

you can isolate test your memory with memtest86: http://www.memtest86.com/
your problem sounds quite familiar with ZL1's, so you might want to keep track of this thread: http://forum.oc-forums.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=243093
did you keep track of what your voltages looked like when you ran the torture test of Prime 95?

what about the various + lines? such as +12v, +5v and +3.3v?
