8320 fsb overclock and sleep mode?

[BretG57]

hello all,

system specs:
amd 8320 @4.5 1.375 volts
corsair h100
crosshair v formula z
corsair vengeance 1600 12gig (3x4)
asus 7870
asus xonar dgx

settings were:
cpu speed 4500
FSB - 200
DRAM - 1600Mhz
CPU/NB - 2400Mhz
HTT - 2400Mhz

okay so, i have had this system for over a year and it was overclocked this whole time. it passed all the test a year ago and i have played pretty much every game under the sun without issue. sleep mode worked perfectly fine. about a week ago i got the bright idea to overclock the fsb, so i increased the fsb to 250 and readjusted all the resulting values for cpu etc. looks something like this now:

cpu speed 4550
FSB - 250
DRAM - 1666Mhz
CPU/NB - 2500Mhz
HTT - 2500Mhz

everthing is stable in bf4 and games however the computer will no longer come out of sleep. the pc will kick on but the monitor won't come on. if i hit the reset button the pc will restart and then resume windows.

things i have tried:
disabling cnq c1e and everything in that advanced tab
disabling hibernation and hybrid sleep
lowering dram to 1300
lowering cpu/nb 2000
lowering htt 2000
increasing CPU/NB Manual Voltage by .05 volts
increasing DRAM Voltage by .1 volts
increasing NB Voltage by .1 volts
increasing NB HT Voltage by .1 volts

i would rather have sleep then the fsb overclock but im trying to get them to work together and not sure where else to go from here. any help would be greatly appreciated.

thanks,
bret

I use a Gigabyte board so it maybe alittle different.

CPU/NB Voltage: Anything above 220 and my CPU does odd things without enough voltage on the NB. (Default is around 1.18ish, IIRC. Set this to 1.21-1.25(on air it's fine until around 1.3 volts.

CPU PLL Voltage: If this is set to 2.1 by default, change it to 2.5 volts. Not sure why AMD lowered it from 2.5(8150) to 2.1(8350). I run mine from 2.6- 2.675 volts.


Ill dig up a picture of your BIOs screen to see where the cross over in terms is against what mine is.

That is a common problem when overclocking in general. I agree that the CPU_NB voltage should be around 1.25v for the 250 FSB and I'd bump the ram voltage by .05v over stock as well. You may be able to clear it up but it's unlikely.

thanks for the ideas but i still couldn't get it to work. sleep will not work above 215 fsb even with:

at 220 i tried:
cpu/nb 1.3 (normally 1.225)
vdda 2.6 (normally 2.5)
dram 1.6 (normally 1.5)
nb 1.2 (normally 1.15)
nb ht 1.3 (normally 1.25)

i guess ill just live with it. does anyone know why it doesn't work though? i can't understand why overclocking the fsb would cause sleep not to work. If it is an instability issue then why will raising all of these voltages not clear it up? going from 215 to 220 is such a small jump, one would assume that these large bumps in voltage should clean it up. puzzling
