seems stable but I think I might be pushing to hard not shure
runs stable on si-soft and 3d mark but some times when gaming it crashes
but that could be my gpu
currently @ 3.9 @ 34c
as per Bios

Cpu = 260 MHz
DRAM = 266
agp/pci = 66/33
VCORE = 1.5
DDR = 2.65
AGP = 1.5
P.A.T = ON?
2.5-3-3-8 burst 4
performance mode turbo
DRAM Idle auto
DRAM refresh auto
spread spectrum on
ICH dealyed trans on
mps rev 1.1

any tips would be helpfull
 
First big thing...... :rant: turn spread spectrum off, it's pointless and kills your overclock. :end rant: :D


Okay, have you tried raising your memory voltage and changing the ratio and timings so your ram is running faster? If you can raise the voltage and loosen the timings, the performance gain by running faster will more than outweight the loss from the loosened timings.... I lost 150 points in Sandra from changing the timings, but gained almost 1000 by overclocking it.

You might try these settings,

Cpu = 260 MHz
DRAM = 266 ( change this so your ram is running faster)
agp/pci = 66/33
VCORE = 1.5 (raise this if necessary)
DDR = 2.75 or 2.8V ( most ram will handle this with no problems)
AGP = 1.6V 9 (some boards benefit from raising this)
P.A.T = ON? ( turn it off if possible)
3-4-4-8 burst 4 ( I don't know about the burst)
performance mode : normal
DRAM Idle auto
DRAM refresh auto
spread spectrum off
ICH dealyed trans on
mps rev 1.1

Give those a try and see if it helps.
 
I've had the same issue, my machine would seem rock solid but sometimes during games it crashed. A little vcore increase (+0.05v) helped alot :clap:
 
awesome thanx for your sugestions Ill givem a go and see how it works
