I have an e8400 on a DFI P45-T2RS with G.Skill 1000mhz 4gb ram.
I've been having trouble overclocking it. I tried 3.3ghz with stock voltage and it bsod on me. I tried 1.3v on 3.3ghz and it still crash. I tried 3.6ghz and it won;t boot to windows.
THe FSBRAM ratio is 1:1. and I happend to have an E0 Stepping of the e8400...
what's going on? aren't dfi supposed to be good? or do i just have a bad one?
please help
my ram is not running anything over 800mhz so I don't have to worry about it. but the dfi bios is a little confusing... and i think it's my motherboard, because DFI released a bug-fixed version of my board that oc like crazy. And yes i updated the bios already.
what should I do?
thanks in advance.
here are bios settings
just set the voltage at 1.3v and try 400x9.
ram= 2.1v and @ 800mhz
nb= 1.24v
sb=1.5v
disable all C1E and other crap except multi-core processing
and pci-e locked at 100mhz
