Interficior Posted November 13, 2004 Share Posted November 13, 2004 The best setting are lowest timings and the highest FSB. but there is a preferance at high FSB - low timings.. I should get that FX-55 clocked high, and when the 55 doesn't want to get any further tortured, get the multiplier down... When the RAM quits clocking higher, set your timings more loose.

BANKROBBER Posted November 16, 2004 Author Share Posted November 16, 2004 hmmm...bit extreme for me i think!!...i will just set cpu as standard for now...just t get over shock of cost heh heh. at present with athlon 64/3000 i would get 'hangs' every now and then so i had to find best timings for it all to run ok.now i will just set spd as standard too...see how it all pans out. thnx for ya reply :O) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
