Hello again. I managed to go from 3.2 to 3.4 successfully, but I'm having trouble getting to 3.6 and above. My recent attempts have all failed, and one almost made the PC inoperable.
My motherboard is still a Gigabyte GA-EX38-DS4, and it's BIOS (F6a) is unchanged from my 3.2 attempts (see my other topic), except for the following...
Vcore: 1.28v
CAS: 5
tRD: 8 (3.4 likes this setting, just as 3.2 liked 7)
FSB: 425 (obviously)
Mem Frequency: 850 (as a result of the above)
What else will I have to change to achieve 3.6Ghz that will at least boot into Windows Vista?
By the way, the system is well cooled by a fair few fans. The CPU, in particular, is cooled by a TRU120E with two Scythe S-Flex SFF21F fans attached in the correct orientation.
