Asus Crosshair 1V Formula Overclocking Problem
I am running a Phenom II X6 1090T with 4gb G-Skill F3-16000CL9-2GBRH water
cooled with ati 5870 on a corsair 1000w psu and three 1Tb Samsung f3 sata drives with under xp presently running at default clock speeds which runs perfectly stable and at good temperature never exceeding 40 degrees under allsorts of stress testing however I have been trying to over clock this system . I have heard and read in forums many people have easily obtained 4.0 GHz under air cooling even yet as soon as I try and over clock even using the auto over clock in the bios the system crashes. The only non default system bios setting has all six cores locked in for use all the time. The only obvious problem is after every crash core five becomes switched off. Is there anyone out there running this board and processor who has successfully over clocked with good stability. If so could you post your setting used in the bios and any other suggestions. Thanks in advance. |

Thanks in advance. If core five is not overclocking-- Depending on the exact BIOS version-- You can manually select overclocking on a core by core basis. You can turn core five off. You can bite the bullet and try another processor. Obtaining any overclocking speed beyond a slight increase above the rated processor speed is on a case by case basis. Expecting 4GHZ is asking quite a bit. Some processors might, and the majority may not work well at this speed. I currently have a 965 X4 processor that runs OC'd at ~3.6Ghz. But--- Occasionally, it hiccups during post at this speed. One running, it seems to be fine. Many of the settings are on a case by case basis, such as the optimum processor and RAM voltages. |

?I am running a Phenom II X6 1090T with 4gb G-Skill F3-16000CL9-2GBRH
Well I easily reached 4ghz with both the x4 and this x6 on the gigabyte 890gx mobo with noctua DH-14 aircooler, by simply changing the muliplier & raising the core voltage, so yours should oc quite a bit. The first thing I'd do is check for the latest system bios on the asus site. Then, since your having such issues ocing at all, I'd first make a boot usb flashdrive with memtest86 on it, and use that to test with before attempting to boot into windows and risking harddisk corruption. Also I suggest setting your memory to manual bios settings at whatever the suggested timings are and verifying that the memory multiplier is not overclocked, then start bumping the core multiplier & core voltage notch by notch using memtest86 to test stability. I'm currently at 17x240=4080mhz @1.5v, which you should be able to reach easily eventually. rms |

I read a few reviews where this was reported as being an issue. No links for you , my apologies for that, but I hope this helps. |
