I managed to hit 3GHz (300x10) on my Sempy tonight and successfully passed a Memtest from an Ubuntu 7.10 x64 live cd, but XP won't boot. Brought it down to 2.5GHz and still nothing. The text-based progress bar loads slower than usual, then freezes at 100%.
Specs are:
AMD Sempy 64 3400+ Sck754
DFI LanParty UT nForce3 250gb
2xSeagate Barracuda 7200.10 250GB SATA (nForce RAID)
Windows XP 64-bit
300FSB
x3 HTT (900MHz)
x10 Multi
1.78v CPU VID
1.8v Chipset VID
2.9v Mem VID
~DDR400 3-3-3-8-10-12 2T (effective. DDR-266 divider)
Any tips?
I needed a small voltage bump to hit 3GHz, so I'm thinking maybe I need another small bump to make it stable.
The other idea is that despite the memory divider, the memory can't handle something (I have no idea what). I constantly had to set my divider down (sub DDR-400) the higher I went. Eventually, despite running sub-stock speeds, had to pull some of my memory out to reach 3GHz.
