I have a x2 3800+ on a K9NU-NEO motherboard.

I can run 240 * 10 stable all day long with memory at 241 and stock volts.

I can't go even 1 step above 240 or it becomes unstable, even with the multiplier at 5x, ht at 200 and memory at /10.

What can I do to get past this?? Better cooling on the northbridge? Better CPU fan??

I have a active Northbridge heatsink, copper ramsinks and a Zalman CPS9500 on the way

Should this make a difference over stock parts?
 
Motherboard is limiting it going any further. And what's the point of ramsinks? All they do is just look nice lol. Even when overclocking.
 
Set your HTT to 4x, or even 3x, throw a 166 (9:10) memory divider on your ram and give her more juice. I think it should go higher, especially since you are at 2.4 with stock voltage.



If your HT is 250mhz or above, you need to set your HTT to 3x or it will become unstable.
 
You might want to raise chipset voltage as well, if that motherboard allows for it, I don't know if it does. However, that may be part of your problem.
 
Ok, ill give it a try, i can put my chipset up to 2.32 from the stock 2.0


Another question I have is why is it I have lost my 1.4 setting for the processor since I put in a dual core? When I had a single core i could up the cpu voltage to 1.4, now I put in the x2 3800 and it stops at 1.35... any ideas?
