still getting this in prime when i upped the volt to 1.8v:

FATAL ERROR: Rounding was 0.5 expected less then 0.4

any suggestions?
 
Crappy RAM? Try dropping to a 5:4 divider. It might also be overheating (what's your cooling like?) but I'd suspect the RAM.
 
try upping ram voltages
after that, try 1.825 or so on ur vcore
after that loosen ram timings
 
what should i set the ram volt to? and also the settings are fine at 11-2-2-2 wit 100% fsb
 
You should see V-Dimm or some other name for RAM voltage in the 2.X range in the advanced section of your BIOS. Just raise or lower that.
 
mmm still getting errors in prime yet iam running my games fine, is this okay? also iam gettin errors in mem86 on test 6 an 7. again does any one have my setup an has successfully oced the processor?
 
you might want to start @ a lower fsb than 200, say 180 and work your way up from there in 5 mhz increments, running the tests at each time. when you get errors then you have reached the stage where you have to either add more vcore or more ram voltage or both. Also, dont assume that the mushkin ram is not the culprit unless you have tested it and it has passed @ the fsb that you are running. I had some of the same ram that was picky @ 200, albiet it was on an intel system... Also what cooling are you using? if the cooling is not up to par then heat could be causing your issues and adding more voltage will only make the problem worse at a certain point.

This is a slow process, it can take days to fullly tweak a system so its stable at setting you want..
 
i upped the vdimm volt an now it seems to be stable but the cpu is running a lil hot, should i go lower for the cpu volts?
