I have Prime95 and SpeedFan and CPU-Z and Super PI alreadyĪnd im honestly only looking for 2.85 or 2.9, nothing too radical. If it passes, you have a stable overclock, if it fails (you will know) then go back into bios and make sure your RAM isnt at some outrageous mhz or you may need to bump up the cpu voltage.Īlso download a temp monitor, your on stock so you will be running hot, the stock fans arent worth a toot. If you can boot up windows, download prime 95 stress tester then leave that run for a couple hours. That should give you 3.36, or try 220, 230 if your not feeling ambitious. Turn Cool n' Quiet off when doing ANY OC'ing, even if it's only a couple hundred mhz.Īlright man, what your settings are at now, 14 x 300 is gonna be 4200mhz, 4.2ghz, not gonna happen. Just turn it off and the cpu will constantly run at a rated 2.8ghz. It only utilizes how much power you currently need.

The reason it's reading 800mhz is because Cool n' Quiet is on. Also you -might- need to adjust the vcore to stabilize.

Keep the multi at max and raise fsb, just watch out for your ram speeds so they don't go overboard. 8 MHz and thats so low for a CPU rated 2.8 GHz, i just want to raise it to the stander and a little more, i just want to know what method is the safest 2.īecause my mutiplier right now is at auto and (thats at x4 normaly and raise to x8 or x14) my FSB is 200MHz, so my CPU is normaly (at rest). Whats the safest possible, im not looking to increase it like a full GHz or anything, just. Now i am confused, should i stay with max Mulipier or lower it 1 or less
