5000+be 200x16 or 248x13 which is better?

[iamajunky]

I've been trying to figure this out, with cpu-z 200x16 is saying 3.216 and 248x13 is 3.225, but the 200x16 runs more stable, why does 248x13 crash so much is it the higher fsb, i have a m2n 32 sli delux mobo. To me its pretty much the same clock, technically what is the difference between the two?, besides the fsb.

[sneekypeet]

the FSB has a relationship to many other components and clocks them all accordingly...raising the multi leaves everything unclocked, and just raises the CPU specifically.

13x248 is better

+1 on 248X13. Youll need to play with other things to stable it out, like voltages (CPU maybe, NB, SB, ram, etc) dividers on ram, etc.

try 228x14 that will give you 3.2ghz that is what i was running my blacky at.. When you have the higher bus speed you overclock the chipset ram and HTT... Lower the HTT to 4x up the ram voltage just a tad... If you can give the chipset as little as a voltage bump as you can (+.0002 or something)

i got the same proccy and board as he does, i can run my fsb up to 300 without a bump in nb voltage, and my ht is at 5x right now runing 283x12 for a 3.47Ghz oc on my 5000. be gentle on the voltages this board doesn't need them that much.

Your board is alot like mine with the voltage then.I can do 300+ HT 1700 without voltage bump... So i am thinking that maybe it is the ram?

248 if ur ram can keep up.

nice to c u around IRA

Damn maybe i can get that my orthos temps are 25c after 2hrs right now at 248x13

I got 8gb of patriot extreme 6400 I think i'll be okay

What's important for good bench results with OC-ing X2:
1) higher FSB
2) Higher RAM clock
3) tighter RAM latencies

I run my blacky now at 300x10 HTT x5

POS if your HT link is at x5, that means your doing 1500!!! HT link which as i was told by a buddy your not suppose to go over the 1000 HT as it may cause trouble try lowering the HT link to x3 therefore you have 900 HT.

As for the OP ive messed around with my and it seems my Blacky wont do 3.3Ghz no matter either 16.5 Multi or 240x14

For me ive used the combo of 230, HT link at x4, x14 Multi Rams at 960Mhz 4-4-4-18 runs awesome

I think you need to find a better app to read temps...there is no way and OC'd CPU runs ambient temps after 2 hours of orthos!

Yeah i am running 1500 and i haven't had a problem with it... Bad news is my ram is dead so i have to wait till i get money so i can buy new...
