amd 3000 problem
 

im having problems overclocking.im new to it so dont laugh.i currently have it set from 1.8 to 2.0

case: thermaltake armor

motherboard:soltek k8tpro-939

psu:500w i dont know what kind though

memory:xms 512 pc 4000:timing is 3.0 4 4 10

cooling:asetek triple radiator water cooling

graffix:geforce 6200 water cooled/w heat sinks on memory

bios:phenix award

i have my vcore set at like 1.6 the vdimm is at like 2.7 my memory is set to 166. i upped the frequency to 223 which gave me 2 gigs.now i ran the torcher test for like a day and it said 1 error.now when i run the 3d mark test it wont work my computer reboots.i dont know if i can lock the graffix card like i keep reading about people doing 66/33 or something.i only saw a setting to enable or disable agp/pci clock.will that work if i disable it.any help with this or if you know a better way please help.also after i up my frequency my computer sometimes says recovered from a error.whats that?

It really doesn't matter what you use for cooling as long as you list CPU temp so that people can help ID'ing the potential problem. Besides, there is practically not much heat from S-939 running 15% overclock and the GForce 6200 is the same.

The way I see it -
1) Memory can be set at 200 making them run at 230 Mhz is below PC4000 rated default speed.
2) What does this mean?
3) AGP/PCI should be locked
4) Recovery from an error or system crashed meaning your system is unstable.
5) 1.6V is high unless you have good CPU temp.

Others may jump in to offer help. By the way, welcome to the forum :)

i meant in the bios it says cpu frequency.i changed it from 200 to 223 to get 2.01g.my temp is anywhere between 40 to 50 c.so like isaid when im in bios i only have a choice to enable or disable pci/agp clock.i should disable it.i also ran my computer for like 36 hours on prime and got 1 error.but like i said when i run 3d mark it wont work itll load up then the screen will go blank and my computer will reboot.thanx for your help and the welcome.

PCI/AGP = enable lock if present

What are the settings in Vcard? Or, reinstall 3DMark.

the vid card settings are set to optimal in bios.i havnt messed with that much yet i tried to change it b4 from 128 to 256 but it didnt change when i ran 3d mark it still rebooted.

Read this, may help you understand BIOS settings

thanx im going to try a few things will update in a while.

changed you ltd muliplier from 5 x to 3x?

soltek k8tpro-939= K8T800 right? Overclocks about as much as my cup of coffee here.

i changed the drive strength on the graffix card to max in bios and now atleast i can score in 3d mark before i just rebooted.thanx for the link lazy helped alot with my vid card problem.and yes it is k8t800 pro.i know its cheap but all i could get on short notice.a friend messed up the msi board i had.he got thermal paste all over the board.dont ask me how he just did.im looking into the getting a new board.ASUS A8N32-SLI DELUXE.
