OK I hope you can help me out again with my EP45C-DS3R! RMA'd the Crucial RAM that was giving me so many headaches, and now I have 2x2 GB of GSkill in this thing running at 4-4-4-12 800MHz. CPU is an e7200.
Currently, I have it overclocked to 3.163 GHz (FSB= 333 and multi=9.5) and it is perfectly stable. Ran Memtest+ for 8 hours or so without an error, coretemp shows around 35 degrees idle and 57 degrees per core while running prime 95 on both cores 100% load (after 12 hours, also with no errors). All I've really tweaked so far is the Vcore (I think thats at 1.2 or so). MCH and advanced RAM timings are at stock/auto for this.
The problem is, I'd like to see this thing go just a bit faster, say 3.5 GHz or so, and I can't obviously get the multiplier any higher, but it won't even post for me with FSB at 400. Just goes into a reboot cycle until finally it rolls back the cmos. I've tried increasing the Vcore as high as 1.35 and the MCH to 1.3 or so with no luck. Any idea on where I should start?
