A8N-E Overclocking

[CamH773]

I am trying to overclock my 3200+ to no avail. I have tried setting the bios overclocking options and they do not seem to affect clock speed. I have just recently flashed to the latest bios 1013, and that has not changed anything. All temps are below 30c, and have plenty of voltage. Is there something wrong with the motherboard or is it just being stubborn?

It's a bitch to oc from what i have read and heard.

Bump. Does anyone have experience with this mobo?

i think these A8 boards are a pain to oc,i'm still working with mine,getting some progress.

i must say that i´m quite happy with this board... i never tried the AI overclocking stuff, just set everything manually following this (http://www.techpowerup.com/articles/overclocking/AMD/138) excellent guide. Your system may will crash several times during testing, but since that AI stuff doesn´t seem to work, give it a try... good luck! :toast:



p.s. the pics show my 24/7 oc, max. stable is 2,75...

hi no problem with the board...one good thing is the board has 3 bios on it so if u mess up it goes to another bios....have an opty 170 at 2.8.....

well this board never seems to set the overclock. i have manually set all of this in the bios and no matter what it will show as 2001mhz in windows.

are you saving the bios on exit of the bios screen???( just checking)

Also i believe when i was helping rick,chapter 4 of your mobo manual is step by step on what to do to attain an OC....give it a thorough reading and see if there is something simple your missing....cuz as rick stated the board OC's great with very little user input...his even kicks but at stock volts. Also he may have changed it by now but these OC's he had were with ValueRAM!!!!!
