Stable???

[evildoc614]

No sure if i can consider this stable or not..
I change the front side bus to 200 and kept the multipler at 11 so iam getting 2200mhz. After running prime95 for 30 mins it halts with 1 error 0 warnings cpu temp is 52c after 30mins am kind of afraid to run it over night i want to be around if somthing goes wrong. mem timings are 8-3-3-2 if i remeber correctly. my 3dmark score stayed the same at times it gets kinda jerky for a sec or so. iam only getting a 5500 i know my video care is my bottleneck but iam not sure if i should back off a little or tinker some more. Its a shuttle so i know i should be careful any advice would be helpful.

Thanks guys

p.s if you guys need more info ill be around

well i back down a little to 190x11 and ran prime95 for 1 hour no errors no warning when i get home ill inch it up a little and see where i get

What voltage you got cpu on?

[Mallus]

Bit more info needed like cpu, ram, voltages, etc? Post your spec and we will be able to help a bit more. Something to try if you haven't already done it is to up your vdimm to 2.7v and try again

what cpu voltage?

Maybe a change in timings, try 7-3-3-2.5

[evildoc614]

Cpu 1.85
Ram V 2.49
Agp V 1.5
T(ras) 8
T(rcd) 3
T(rp) 3
Cas 2.5

Shuttle SN45G
2500+
256XMS3200 x2
80gig HD WD
FX5200
Need anything eles?

oh yea if anyone can advise me on how to setup speedfan so it wont jump to 100% when i start it i would appreciate it =)

Set your multiplier down to 9 or something and then raise your FSB 5mhz at a time until it becomes unstable. When it does back off by 5 or so and begin to up your multiplier. You should also set your voltage back to stock and only up it if needed. Hope this helps.

[evildoc614]

I have not change the cpu voltage.. what should it be set too?

[Spritzup]

I myself am also fairly new at this, but it was my understanding that the 2500+ was stock voltage at 1.6 or 1.65. 1.85 seems awfully high. Anyone else wanna confirm this?

[Rod911]

Nah, 1.85v ain't that high. Just as long as you find your system is stable, then everything's sweet. The default voltage for a Barton is 1.65v.

ATM, running with the specs in my sig, I can only run Prime95 for half an hour like you. However, same setup, I can run SiSoft Sandra's Burn-in 24hrs and also do some folding at the same time. The only way I can get Prime95 stable (get it to run 24hrs straight) is to up the voltage to 1.75v.

[evildoc614]

Well i droped my voltage to 1.65 and up the fsb back to 200 and now i can run prime95 for over 1 hour with no hiccups.. ill have to wait and play around with it when i get home
