Latest Pics of my Rig... Down to 1 rad.

^ ok... sorry about that.

The only thing I touched in the bios to OC was the multiplier and the vcore. I set the RAM voltage to what it was rated on the sticks. The RAM sticks say 2.1v so I set it to that.

-EDIT-

Here's a new one.. I got it stable and loading at 3.8g, 19x Mult, 1.5125 Vcore, Ram @ 2.16, and the FSB Freq is untouched at 200.. Would I need to change that? Something is telling me I shouldn't have to feed this thing that much voltage.. I really think this board sucks for clocking.. That GB board I had was phenominal! It clocked a lot easier without having to feed it soo much voltage. I saw a vid on YT with a 955 PII and he got 4g @ 19x w 1.488 volts, 200 FBS Freq and the same darn settings I have.

You should be able to go further on water....i booted at 4ghz on air.

Was able to run pi at 3.9ghz on air, and can get almost fully stable.

^ I think this board has a lot to do with it... The CPU power connector is only a 4 pin, my GB board had an 8 pin connector. Mine still isn't really stable where it is now @ 3.8g. It runs for a couple minutes, but then blues out on me. I'm rather nervous about giving it anymore voltage. It wouldn't boot at all on a 20x mult @ 1.55v.

I'm doing some reading on this. Apparently 4g clocks are suicide runs.. I couldn't get 3.9g stable so I guess that's why I'm where I am now.

These intel chips have such a LOW core voltage for the clocks they get.... I'll do an intel build one of these days. 1.17v on an i7 @ 3.4g... Must be nice... lol
