Hi guys I've had the system in my sig for about 3 years and I finally want to OC it because I have the time now. I want some help getting the best results I can out of my system
default:
CPU 200x11 = 2200mhz @ 1.35v
RAM 200mhz 2-3-3-6 @ 2.75v
I was able to push the CPU to 220mhz FSB lowering ram to 100mhz, multi to 4x, and HTT left at 1x @ 1.375v
This was basically the limit, because 225mhz wouldn't boot even at 1.45v - why is the limit for this chip so low? is it the PSU or did I just get a bad OC'ing chip? I was able to successfully boot with 220x11 = 2420mhz with an HTT multi of 5x(ram still at 100mhz)
Is there something I'm missing because I thought the average 3700+ was able to OC to like 2.6-2.7ghz ish
