NEED HELP W/ AMDFX-8150

[LoganG]

they seem a tad high

 

[mrwayne410]

okay it went 80c im lowering the freq

Wayne, assuming, again, that it is a gaming rig, you'll noticeably improve FPS by OC'ing your GPUs.

Lower your freq to 4.5 (wich is already a nice OC on air for a 8150), and squeeze these 6870's!

I have overclocked my gpu's to 925 and I get no artifacts

 

[mrwayne410]

what should I set my ram timings to?

 

[LoganG]

what are the manufacturer recommended timings? If you post up all of your CPU-z tabs, that would also be very helpful, including the ram / spd/ cpu tabs

 

[mrwayne410]

here they are my stock speed is 1866

 

[LoganG]

okay, and what problems are you having with your RAM?

 

[mrwayne410]

i want to see how far I can push it my motherboard says 2400 in the bios easy overclock but the gigabyte website says it only supports 2000mhz

 

[mrwayne410]

or should i lower the timings and make it faster that way? idk what to do i just want the best for my pc

You timings look good if it's stable, if you are not benching it is highly unlikely that you will see a difference running the ram higher then you already are. With 4 sticks of ram you will find it more difficult to run high overclocks because of the increased stress on the IMC. In day in an day out tasks especially gaming you really don't need to run that cpu higher then 4.3-4.5. As manu stated you are much better off ocing the gpu's.

 

[mrwayne410]

I do both, so..

I do both, so..

So there you are done. No manual setting in bios is going to run that DDR1866 ram at DDR2400 and likely not even DDR2000. That easy overclock crap is generally for the birds and I don't chirp any.

I got it to run at 2000mhz bro

Bro there is a great difference between not likely and won't. If you did; good since those are things you have to try at your end. Not something we need sign off on. Luck bro.
