  • Asus P5Q + F2-8500CL5D-4GBPK OVERCLOCK

    Hey,

    My desktop is running:

    Processor:e8400 3.0GHZ O.C - 4.12Ghz
    FSB: 458 Mhz
    MotherBoard: Asus P5Q
    NorthBridge Voltage: 1.28V
    CPU Voltage: 1.38V

    The memory i am using is G.SKILL 4GB (2 x 2GB) DDR2 1066 (PC2 8500) F2-8500CL5D-4GBPK.

    With the overclock on my processor this memorry is running at 566 Mhz (33Mhz over-stock). I have the memory timings(5-5-5-15) and voltage set in the BIOS. I could not get it stable on stock voltage. I had to bump the DRAM Voltage to 2.2 V.

    Is there any settings you would suggest changing in order to get this memory stable at a lower voltage? (north/south bridge, dram settings etc.)

    Thanks

    More voltage will be required, it is already DDR2-1132, so anything better will need higher voltage or lower timings. 5-7-7-20, 5-6-6-18, you can test to see how much you can lower the voltage and/or raise frequency with these timings.

    Our PI series would be great for doing this. Use to be one of my fav combos.

    Thank you

      Thanks for the reply,

      I am good with leaving it @ 2.2 v as i have a memory cooler keeping it cool .

      Cheers
