No worries. Life happens. I figured that out myself ;)

Yeah.... Hows that going bud? BTW....BIG CONGRATS!!



Just wanted to get on here real quick before I go into a coma LOL.... $a.m. is gonna come awful early AGAIN.

FINALLY!!

Just found a AMD retention mount adapter kit for my Megahalem! Now maybe I can chill this thing down abit and get a little more out of her! :D

Sorry buddy never saw this post. She is doing great! Wouldn't change it for the world.


Finally :D That should definitely help the overclocks out. Now lets see 4ghz+

I hope the heat problem is the only thing keeping it from 4ghz and beyond. It has to be that and learning the tons of other bios settings cause i've seen LN2 runs @ 6ghz.

Better cooling should definitely help. Those PHII scale insane mad with colder temps. Much better scaling on the cold side compared to intel. I bet if that cooler works like it should then you'll be able to hit around 4~4.2ghz. Have you tried AMD Overdrive too? That's actually a windows based OC utility that's worthy of using.

I haven't yet...been playing around in the bios today and no matter what I do I can't get above 3.7ghz. I even tried playing around with some of the other settings in there that I have no idea about what they do and nothing. Playing around with those kinda showed me what they do but still not really sure.

That's the way I learned. I used to read and read and read only to learn the most from trial and error. Just keep very good notes so you will know what settings seemed to help stability. Besides 3.7 isn't bad with the stock heatsink :rofl

LOL... I guess not. Playing around and posting some base line scores... Might as well pick up a few points if I can at stock settings.

That's not too bad for stock scores. See if you can't select a different ram divider and get that ram to atleast 800mhz but keep the same timings. You should really be able to run ~800mhz @ 7-6-6-18 or 6-6-6-18 or even better like 7-6-5-15 with some extra vdimm :D
