Hi. I just got my abit nf7-s 2.0 and mobile 2400. Im currently at 2.4mhz .
The settings are 11X220 with the voltage at 1.70 I was wondering though,
what would be the ideal settings for this and if I wanted to try 2.5mhz ?
Settings such as ram timings, ram voltage, cpu voltage, etc. I have kingston
3200ddr 2.5cl. idle temps are about 35C and under load about 47C
Any tips or suggestions please ? Good websites about this ?

TIA

There's far too many variables to give specific instructions. You will just
have to try it for yourself and play around with different settings.

One tip I would give you is to try to keep things simple. What I mean by
that is don't play with too many settings at once. Then if something
doesn't work, you have a good clue where the problem might be. Rather than
changing a whole load of things and then finding it doesn't work and having
no clue about what the problem is.

So, keep your FSB (i.e. ram) speed low and then you know any problems aren't
ram-related. When you have found the limit of your CPU, you can think about
raising the FSB up again.

The other (obvious) tip is don't go mad! Don't just whack the speed up to
2500 and hope for the best: that's a recipe for a corrupted bios and a
broken PC. Steady increases, testing with Prime95 each time.

Also, I recommend using 8rdacore.exe or clockgen.exe to make online
adjustments, rather than doing it in the bios all the time. Then if you get
a lockup or crash with a bad setting, you haven't made your PC unbootable.

I would recommend have a good read of the forum below. I am sure people
there will help you, but do read/search the forum first before wading in
with questions. Its only polite.
