I havent thought about computers in the three years since I built my last one, but I just got some money and sure. Really dont want any mistakes like my ram not fitting into the motherslot. Heres what a day of holding off pulling the trigger has gotten me: SILVERSTONE Sugo SG01B-F Black...

1013 just flashed to 1013.02 beta with no change in vcore

well hey good for you

exact same problem I have. I cant get anything over 1.36 on the vcore no matter what I put in the bios. Called tech support, "we cant help you overclock, sorry". I guess asus+x2= no overclocking. Shame, I really like the board otherwise. Back to newegg you go, vile motherboard.

this motherboard... :mad: asus a8n sli-deluxe x2 4200+ First, it reads vcores as having a .6 volt flux... meh! Now that Im overclocking I can't alter the vcore and have it actually change at all, period. Auto sets it to 1.29-1.31 (never stable). I set it to 1.45 and it goes from...

too hot? Running over fsb max limit? I wish I could delete this post as I dont know anything about OC intel.

he calls shenanegans, because it's unusual (BS) for you to score over 8000 with a 6800. To the OP, that is an extremely good 3dmark05 score for a stock 7800GT. On an X2 4200 @2.5ghz, with the same card, I get around 6900. With my GT overclocked to 492/1180 (CPU at stock 2.2) I get 7700. So...

im pretty sure thats the ceiling no matter what the timings. If I needed more fsb I definately wouldve gone with something else, or if this hadnt been on sale for 220 (after rebate) just wanted to let people know that it "can" overclock, somewhat.

I was really worried this ram was going to suck for overclocking, and when I couldnt get it over 220 I was getting ready to RMA it, even though it would stay 2-3-2-5 1T up to 215mhz. Then I read this thread: http://www.bleedinedge.com/forum/showthread.php?t=12758 followed ryders specs, and...

X2 4200 @ 235x11 fsb= 2.585ghz i have it set to auto vcore and it runs stable in games and benchmarks, but I get the feeling prime might kill it if I dont manually set the vcore. Whats a good idea of a range I should be looking at setting it to? My crappy MB only allows 1.45 max.

yeah i was planning to overclock now that ive got new ram. Should I look at returning my motherboard over this?

A8N Sli-deluxe on antec smartpower 500w Everest shows the vcore at 1.30v, usually. It dips down to 1.26 and up to 1.33. This is my first time fiddling with a computer so Im not sure if I should be concerned or if this is normal, but I rather expected the vcore to stay rock solid... CPU-Z...

1t or 2t? also what kind of b/w you get from sisoft at that setting? I remember reading from a OCZ rep on overclocking.com that that ram only goes to 230. But he was recommending a more expensive set so maybe he was just being a salesman...
