Hi,
Please go easy as it's the first time I have attempted an overclock :)
I have just built my new PC with the following components:
Gigabyte GA-EP43-DS3
4GB (2x2GB) PC-6400 5-5-5-18 OCZ "Gold Series"
Pentium Dual-Core E5200
I have tried having a go at Overclocking the CPU but I am failing miserably. I don't think its the CPU that is the problem - more so the memory, the reason I think this is when I set the Memory Multipler to anything other than Auto or 2.00D the system fails to boot. Obviously running my memory at 2.00D @ 240FSB is running the memory WAY below its rated speed of 800Mhz, even 2.66D it fails to boot which is a good 100MHz under its rated speed.
Here are the settings I am using:
BIOS F9
MB Intelligent Tweaker(M.I.T.)
Robust Graphics Booster ...............: Auto
CPU Clock Ratio ..........................: 12X
Fine CPU Clock Ratio.....................: +0.5
CPU Frequency ...........................: 3.00Ghz

Any help is appriciated :)
Thanks,
Kona
