First overclock

[trents]

Looking a post #18 that shows your memory is still overclocked. Is you bclk now back to 100? Stock XMP 2133 would show up as 1066 mhz in the CPU-z memory tab. Your's is showing 1108.8 which because it is DDR memory would be 2217.6. DDR stands for Double Data Rate. CPU-z reports the memory bus speed, not the actual frequency. Thanks for the Sig. Now you can add the memory frequency info to "2x8 GB Kingston Hyper X DDR3." If you look at the columns in the SPD tab of CPU-z it tells you what the rated memory frequency is.

My BCLK is at 100.8 or 100.7 (can't remember which exactly) the memory is clocked to 2217.6 I believe, overclocked mind you, and not from 2133 which is it's XMP setting but from 2200 which was the step up from 2133 at 100 bclk.

Been running this for a few days now, very tolerable temps and no stability issues so far (never any crashes nor surprisingly crashed software)

So you're saying that in bios you have a memory divider that will give you 2200 RAM frequency at stock BCLK of 100?

Yes, that sounds about right. It's one jump up from 2133.

Ha! I never had a bios that had those kind of steps for RAM dividers. I'ts like a half step.

BCLK at 100.8 or 100.7 is a smidgen jump. What is the BCLK on AUTO?

 

[Rabcor]

bclk is of course 100 on auto, what else would it be?

I also tweaked the ratios however, they're 46 instead of 44.

I was just asking because at 100.8 or 100.7 MHz is not close to 99.95 to 100.05 MHz that most motherboards have for BCLK on AUTO.

I had to re-flash my Bios do to the BCLK not working correctly on AUTO.
