"The system shutdown due to overclocking"
I have configured the following,
AMD 2800+ Barton ASUS A7V8X 512MB DDR Cruical 3200 DDR400 I set my settings at 12.5 X 181, the system runs great at around 48C. As soon as i put it to 12.5 X 182, upon reboot I get no picture on the monitor and I hear the ASUS Post Reporter say "The system as been shut down due to overclocking". I reboot, put it back to 12.5 X 181 and its fine. Is this is as fast as it will go? Am I doing something wrong? Help! |

have you tried upping the core voltage this is quite often needed at
elevated bus speeds "Mike Tetrault" wrote in message ...

This brings me to my next question:
How do you know when you cannot overclock any higher? "Mike Tetrault" wrote in message ...

I assume this board has a KT333 or KT400(A) chipset and as such doesn't have a a 6 divider for the the pci/agp bus. That could be the problem. Might try setting the multiplier higher and keeping the FSB down closer to 166. -- Abit KT7-Raid (KT133) Tbred B core CPU @2400MHz (24x100FSB) http://mysite.verizon.net/res0exft/cpu.htm |

About 180-185mhz is the maximum you can get on the fsb -due to the pci/agp frequency getting increased as you increase the fsb - as the two are locked together. The only option is to change the multiplier to a higher value - if it is a locked Barton the locking work around is said to work on the KT400 (I have an unlocked one so I have not tried) |

Help! it's a kt400 therefor synced to fsb pci and agp basicly, you need to hit 166mhz, or 200mhz fsb anything in between won't work too well you shoud have a bought the nforce2 ultra 400 based mobo really |

Mine falls back to that if I push it too hard. If your bios has a fsb/agp/pci divider you will need to set that to 5:2:1 to push the fsb up. As a guide: I have a Barton 2000 on a kt333 based mobo and it just about gets to 188 with a few voltage tweeks but 189 wont post. Even then more serious testing (running memtest86 and burnBX) shows it needs to be more like to 176 to be rock solid. HTH |
