Emperor Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 Im having problems with my oc. I cant boot my system over 250FSB. When i put the FSB on 255Mhz the system dosnt boot. I tried 3 multipliers memory 5:4 ,3:2 and 1:1 and with none of them it doesnt work. I tried to put higher voltage (i tried even 1,76 V) and it booted but it crashed when i started playing COD2 for test. So can any1 help me? What should i do,or is this my max oc. The MB is Gigabyte 8IPE 1000 Pro rev 2. memory Hynix D43 and processor P4 2.6Ghz HT Northwood Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginner Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 which kind of cooling do you use Emperor ? If you got good enough cooling, it can be vdroop stopping ya, or bad cpu stepping.. I've got a Pentium 4 Northwood 2, 2.4 GHz (533 fsb) which can't go higher than 3060 mhz using watercooling that can get my C2D up to 4 ghz, My board is a P4C800-E Deluxe, which vdroops 0.1V.. I've lent it to Nosfer@tu to vmod it, and then I will try again to see of it helps to higher oc, or i'll just have to satisfy with, that i've got a lousy cpu stepping.. heh =) Edit: is it a Northwood C or a Prescott ? and which stepping, or take a CPU-z screenshot and post it ^^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emperor Posted September 7, 2007 Author Share Posted September 7, 2007 I dont think it is the cooling,i got a Zalman 7000Alcu and it is the same thing as with the stock. It is around 32°C under load in Super Pi. My board is Gigabyte 8IPE1000. Ok and vdrop is when the voltage variates under load? Yes this happens to me also. Here is the CPU-z data. Is there any good guide for vmod? mhttp://valid.x86-secret.com/show_oc.php?id=238353 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginner Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 Sounds wierd, I couldn't even keep my Northwood B 2,4 ghz cold enough to be stable at 3 ghz.. have to goto work now.. will look more into it, when I get home again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginner Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 Couldn't find anything on your motherboard though about vmods Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
