I'm interested in hitting the highest FSB possible on the Crosshair IV Extreme, hopefully around 400MHz. At least a few people have done it, so its possible but I don't know much about running especially high FSB. Has anyone tried this, or read any guides or accounts of people running FSB this high on an 890FX motherboard?
I have a sempron 145 I just picked up from Newegg. It was only $40. It is a single core processor, and has a locked multi at 14x, and I'm looking to run some benches as close to 6GHz as possible on it (liquid nitrogen). To hit 5.6GHz, I'll need to do at least 400MHz FSB.
Any tips to help this board pump this sort of FSB? Voltages or settings I should look at that might help high FSB? Other than running LN2 on the CPU, I'll be pointing my blower at the NB/PWM area.
I'm heading over to the ROG forums to reference their bios guide for the CVF, while the bios is very different from the CIVE bios, many of the options are the same.
