Hey what's going on people. I'm completely new to overclocking I have a P5Q-Pro, latest BIOS, ect. My goal is 0C @ 3.4ghz. Attached to it is a Artic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro with Arctic Silver 5 thermal compound, powered by a modular Mushkin 550 watt PSU.
I have 8GB (4X2gb) G. Skill DDR2-1066 @ 5-5-5-15 / 2.1 Volts. My problem is the following:
I can't post with any OC settings. Ive tried getting my memory up to 1066 and can't even do that. I set my timings manually, along with DRAM voltage, and increased the NB voltage to 1.3, 1.4 and even 1.5 and still cant post with 1066. I can post with 800 though.'
Since i can't even post my memory, i can barely do nothing with my C1 stepping Q9550. I tried setting the FSB manually with auto voltage, doesn't post. I tried entering the standard settings and it still doesnt post. I tried raising NB, FSB Termination and have trid 1.25 volts, 1.3, and 1.3125 with no luck. What can be the problem?
Overclocking this rig is demoralizig me, i feel like im back to my first 8086 >_<
