PC2 6400 on the label.
So will I just set the voltage to 1.8v?

The standard voltage for ddr2 is 1.8v so that is a good place to start especially with 5-5-5-X as timings.
Right ok.
Cannot find how to turn of Speed Step? Looked in absolutely every option possible and I cannot find it :S .
Any help? I guess this is a little more complicated than "set fsb to 333MHz" lol.
CPU-Z says the RAM timings are 6-6-6-18.
Label says they are 5-5-5-(15 I guess?)

It wont be called speed step in the BIOS it will be EIST and C1E set both to disabled or off or whatever your BIOS calls the not in use option
Right ok then.
Still confused as what to put for the RAM, there's alot more options than just putting it 5-5-5-15 or whatever, will I leave the rest set to auto?
for a basic overclock, you can leave the timings, just stick with FSB
and you might find you have to overvolt your vcore, only by a small amount can increase stability, but obviously all chips run differently so can't say for sure
i thought i'd come along and just add my 2 cents, seeing as we have exactly the same set up.
do you have the OCZ PC2-6400 Platinum Rev. 2 memory?
if so.. it's very good memory once you pump a little more voltage into it, but obviously.. only do this with very good memory cooling over it.
you should be able to about 450FSB with the IP35 Dark Raider.
but only if you have good case cooling, again..
cos you need to pump 1.6v through the NorthBridge to reach a 450FSB, stable.
as for the RAM, leave the rest on auto, and just set the top 4 to 5-5-5-15
as for the EIST it's within 'advanced BIOS features', then 'CPU features'.
it'll be called EIST and C1E.
Ah confused again.
I want a clock of 3.0gHz.
Do I just go into the bios and set the fsb higher?
Or
Do I everything else that was described in this thread?
I don't care if it isn't completely efficient or if the temperatures aren't as low as they could be.
A stable 3.0gHz clock is all I ask of you
The RAM is:
OCZ 2GB dual channel (only have 1 stick in right now) PC2 6400 gold edition XTC. OCZ2GB8004GK. 5-5-5
That is ALL the information on the label lol.
I've got the Antec 900 - very good airflow .
So what would you recommend to get my CPU to 3.0gHz?
just go into the BIOS, set the FSB to 333 and put the vcore up 1 notch.
as for the FSB : DRAM divider, set it to 1:1.2 and you'll get your 800MHz RAM.
Speedstep is off.
*checks*
CPU-Z says it is off .
Change external clock from 272MHz to 333MHz?
Change CPU Core Voltage from 1.3250V up one notch (+) to 1.9450V?
How do I change the divider?
1. Disable EIST
2. Set the FSB to 333
3. Set the memory divider to 1:1.2 this should give you memory at 800mhz DDR or 1:1 if you prefer.
4. Set the memory timings to 5-5-5-15 the rest to auto
5. Set the voltages to auto - this will not be optimum but will be hopefully stable
Save the settings and your good to go.
No dont put your CPU voltage up to 1.9V that will kill the chip
1 notch should be something like 1.35v
Yeah 1 notch is up by 0.2V, to 1.3450V, don't have a clue what I put lol. Don't worry, I've not saved anything.
So CPU : DRAM is at 1 : 1.25
external clock is at 333MHz
CPU core voltage is at 1.3450V
the DRAM timings, should the first 4 be set to 5-5-5-15
(thats CAS latency time, RAS to CAS delay, RAS precharge and precharge delay)?
When the CPU voltage is set to default, it is 1.3250V.
Just asking for some assistance before I do this. Should I up my voltage, or should it be stable at 1.3250V?
Entering the RAM timings, is it just the first 4 numbers that are 5-5-5-15?
