  • F3-12800cl8-2gbtd + amd 965 be [c3] + asus m5a97 r2.0 [bios:1903]

    So I'm having issues with stability on this setup. When I set the CPU/NB to 2400Mhz it will do it, but the HT at 2400 will show 2000Mhz. Why is that? I have posted BIOS screenshots in order to show what I have currently have that is stable so far. I noticed that even if I set the CPU/NB to 2400Mhz I will still get an random BSOD so there is definitely some stability issues that need to be worked out.
    NOTE: I currently have all DRAM slots loaded. So its 8GB total... 4 sticks of 2GB.

    Regards,

      I have been following the suggestions on the gskill sticky thread, and I'm still having stability issues. Any suggestions?

        Ok, so I seem to have found my calibrated settings that work. There is an error with the information regarding how Gskill recommends a 0.1V+ to the CPU/NB. The instructions are correct, but when you are using an AM3 CPU in a AM3+ socket motherboard with a UEFI bios it gets somewhat complicated.

        Basically, when you set 2400 CPU/NB in the UEFI bios the ASUS bios adjust automatically to 1.35V. This is because the motherboard is in offset mode, and misrepresents the instructions of what Gskill is trying to do. What you really want to do is set your BIOS settings to complete stock. Find the voltage which is usually 1.0V at 2000Mhz CPU/NB and THEN adjust from there. So when you set your CPU/NB and the BIOS auto adjust voltages you can calibrate it to the 1.1V settings.

        This will prevent any type of BSOD issues with the memory controller. So the RAM is fine, its just poor explanation of instructions on Gskills part with these new UEFI bios.

          Every BIOS/EFI varies, the point is you need to find out what your default CPU-NB Voltage is and increase that value by +0.1V. It doesn't matter what the BIOS automatically sets values to, you are to make sure the frequency and Voltage is set correctly, then it will work properly with those values.

          Most CPUs like the Phenom II series are 1.10V default, some others are 1.15V, so the adjusted value should be 1.20V-1.25V, whichever is most stable based on proceeding tests.

          Thank you

            I'm still crashing every once in a while and I get BSOD. I have playing around with the CPU/NB voltages, but have not been able to fully stabilize the system. Any other ideas?
