How can i Improve

[zigster]

Been having allsorts of trouble trying to oc this baby

The processor or memory refuses to budge or becomes extremley unstable

These settings seem to work fine and managed to boot the system and run 3d mrk 06

FSB Unlinked
FSB (QDR) 1370 = 3082Mhz
Mem (DDR) 1066
Memory Timings all Auto
Mem Voltage 1.875v

All other voltage on Auto



CPU Z shows Core Voltage at 1.264v and Everest at 1.262V

Memory runningat 532.9Mhz with CPU Z
Ratio 9:14
Timings 5-7-7-24

Forgot to say i am running bios version 1301 not 1303.

What is the best bios version !

Am i putting my ram in danger on these settings as i have read alot about voltages on SLI memory !

Thanks

I checked you mem voltage on OCs web site and it's rated for 2.3v and warrantied up to 2.35. If your Vmem is right and not a off reading it's horribly under volted right now. heres the link,

lo Zigster m8. You 3DMark06 score is about right ;) You always lose about 600 points whilst using Vista anyway :( (so your score is actually about 15500)

And if you check the TPU 3DMark06 scoreboard for SLi setups, yours is doing well ;)

Well i stuck my old e6600 back in and fitted my thermaright 120A cooler and i got that baby Overclocked to 3.45Mhz

I guess it must just be a Quad thing

Just benchmarking now so hopefully all is well
