yeah its wierd. for some reason the hsf is not centered over the ihs. like some sides are more exposed that others. when i was installing it, the hsf would slide off to one side and i couldn't manage to get it centered... shud this be ok?
hi,
i picked up an ACF 64 hsf and noticed when i put it on that the piece that comes in contact with the cpu is actually smaller than the cpu... is this right? after its all mounted etc, i can still see about 1-3 mm of the cpu (depending on which side im looking..).
cpu is a 3800+ am2...
Oh, and another thing, cpu-z, shows my volts at 1.36v. my mobo shows it at 1.45 and i set the volts to auto because i couldn't seem to get accurate volts when i set it manually. input is appreciated.
hey guys,
just wanted to share my 3800+ oc. got it up to 2800mhz, although i am having some minor issues. for some reason, i can't reboot the computer and have it load consistently. any ideas?
BTW this is on the stock hsf.
heres the stats:
2800mhz
350 HTT x 8 multi
pc5300...
hey everyone,
i've been trying to oc my 3800+ am2, but i am not having very much success. i am able to get it up to 2600 mhz and run everything stable. the problem is, when restart/shutdown my computer and reboot it, sometimes the computer won't boot. also, when it does load windows, the...
I thought i was the only one having problems with this board. I'm experiencing the exact same thing, super stable when its running, but when i go to restart, it is a pain. also, after rebooting, sometimes the overclock doesn't stay.. meaning i have it at 2600 and reboot and it will show 2000...
well, i updated the bios to 2.3. everything seemed to be doing well. i got up to 2600 mhz, which was stable. i shut the computer down for a few hours, booted it up and it ran at 2600. anyways, i restarted it and for some reason, my comp doesnt like restarting and just stalls. this seems...
thanks.
got it to run at 2500 stable. played some WoW, ran sandra, no glitches... i got to restart the computer and it goes back to default. why o why..
just an update. also wondering if my temps sound right...
stock air:
36ish idle
57-59 under full load (from sandra)
i'm at 253 HTT x10 = 2530 mhz
1.365 volts (according to bios)
does this sound right? asus probe is giving me all the measurements.
thanks
ok cool, thanks. i'm sitting at 240 right now with ht x 4.
the mem V settings (meaning memory voltage i presume).. goes as far as 1.95 v.
thanks for the help.
ok, i found an option on the mobo:
k8<---->SB HT speed (then you can toggle either: x 1, 2, 3, 4, 5)
what does this do? and what should i set it at if i want the following numbers:
2600 mhz
260 HTT x 10 multi
TIA
EDIT: just read the above post, must have posted a second...
