Hello all, I have been lurking in here ever since I assembled my new rig last xmas and I highly appreciated the way knowledge and experience is given freely away so I think it is time I ask advice for my little problems.
I have the following:
- Thermaltake VE2000SWA ArmorLCS Case
- Intel E8600
- Gigabyte GA-EP45T-Extreme
- 4GB of Corsair XMS3DHX memory 1600 [email protected] (http://www.corsair.com/products/go.a...W3X4G1600C9DHX)
- Gigabyte ATi 4870x2 Graphics Card
- Very very recently changed F5h motherboard BIOS
- Dual Seagate BARRACUDA 7200.11 ST3750330AS 750GB SATA2 drives
Well the case has embedded water cooling system which is setup and running smoothly
The story is I wanted to OC the system ever since I got it, but it was not a high priority as long as it run smoothly, initially the system came with another type of memory Corsair TWIN3X4096-1600C7DHX (http://www.corsair.com/_datasheets/T...-1600C7DHX.pdf) which died about 3 months after I got it for unknown reasons and the integrator change it to the TW3X4G1600C9DHX pair after I spent 1 month trying to figure out why my system kept giving BSODs.
My initial tries to set the memory speed to 1600MHz have been a total failure, since no matter what values I used the system comes up with a series of continues beeps which lead to an OC error
In any case the error comes while I set either the FSB to 400MHz or the memory multiplier to 4.00D, if I leave FSB to 333MHz and multiplier to 4.00B the system boots fine with the memory running at 1333MHz (current settings):
Also note I am using a dual boot Windows7 x64 (7100)/Vista Enterprise x64 (but it seems irrelevant in the event system never boots to any adjusted values)
Basically I have tried setting FSB to 400 memory multiplier to 4.00D while adjusting DRAMVolt to 1.8V and MCH Core to 1.25V.
I must note that I am quite inexperienced OCer (but highly experienced with comps) and all my knowledge on the specific subject comes from this forum![Cwm11](https://www.tweaktownforum.com/core/images/smilies/cwm11.gif)
Thank you in advance for any help
