Fsb is at (227x15), Ram is running at 1:2. Haven't done anything to ram timings/voltage. I ran prime95 last night for 10hrs with no problems.
I get about 12500 pts in 3dmark06, which isn't terrible but theres phenom 1's that are clocked lower and get a better score.
If I can't really tweak anything maybe ill try running the processor stock. |
You got CPU(3740) and ram(908) speed up, there is a few more tweaks you can do
Run the memory with Ganged Mode disabled, it will run two 64bit channels instead of one 128bit channel
Northbridge speed can be increased by bumping up the multi
The NB speed also controls the L3 cache speed
Upto 2400 is usually pretty stable, 2400-2750 gets tricky
You'll probably have to increase CPU-NB voltage(mines at 1.3v)
Increasing the speed of HyperTransport link will also help
HTT should never be faster then the NB speed
Increasing the PCI-E speed can help sometimes(bump up a little bit at a time)
Warning some hardware may not like the increase
Good Luck
