lokhup i couldnt wait until tomorrow to try your settings lol, and thx again got me over the 3ghz point and so far all is stable
.
the temps are on full load with orthos running, on idle they drop back to 43/45 respectfully. i pumped up the v to 2.0 on the ram, and its a 3/2 ratio the other option is 4/5 which i have not tried yet. Thx again have a rate .
Thats the spirit Penfold, a little at a time. Is there a particular speed you are looking for? I ask because i said if hit 3.2 i would stop. But the need for speed grows stronger by the day inside me
Jk, I will try to explain.....Your processor sends information in the form of frequency's, akin to water waves the more waves past a point the higher the frequency. It does so thought the fsb or front side bus which is used to communicate to the Northbridge. This is a chip on the motherboard covered with a heatsink, normally just above the graphics card and under the processor.
The Northbridge is important because it connects the chip to the ram and graphics card. So information is sent to here via the cpu where its sent to the Ram modules via the Memory Bus.
As the parts need to speak the same frequency to understand one another the fsb is connected to the ram speed. So a fsb of 320mhz the ram is set at 320 or as its double pumped 2x320=640mhz. Now we can adjust the speed of the ram by introducing a ratio by changing the reference frequency and memory frequency. This means that the ram can run at a faster rate, which is better as information stored here can be accessed faster.
The multiplier is where the processor can run and process information via x cycles but it only communicates with the board by the fsb speed.
Ok first off lokhup i was ok before but that explanation just lost again ahahahah. and wolf i wasnt looking for uber speeds im just trying to learn the ins and outs tbh, im pretty happy so far will have a fiddle and twiddle but as long as i get to grips with it im happy. although i did get an itch and just had to have another play

Hope this helps without going over the top
Thanks lokhup, that does help...so with DDR3 Ram, is it triple pumped? And the RAM and FSB have to be in ratio so they can understand each other, and they can't be random numbers, which is why higher speed DDR3 Ram is somewhat useless at the moment, as it can never actually run at that speed?
