help on overclocking

[AMDX1325]

i oc'd my pc to

210fsb x 11mult = 2310mhz
vcore 1.510
agp 1.55
DDR 2.60

ram is 1:1

video to
420/371(742)

i benched a few, but dont see much improvements...
cpu is 45C idle, 50C load
3dmark01se seems no improvement
21358 stock vs 21371 OC'd

SOME ONE teach me how to oc even more? this is as far i know...

Heres a great place to start .LINK (http://www.neoseeker.com/Articles/Hardware/Guides/OCguide/) I ask a similar question a couple of weeks ago. Paragon was nice enough to give me this link. So you can thank him :thumb:

What kind of cooling are you using on your cpu? Is it stock cooling?
In the little time I have been OCing, I have learned heat is your worse enemy.
I was running my 9600 Pro the other day at 492/345 (with artifacts) so I ended up at 472/342. I realized I probably needed better cooling to go higher. Skip down to the graphics section and looked what a little cooling did for eva2000.

Sorry for the run on, Just thought I would give ya a little heads up.

AMDX1325, have you played with the multiplier at all? I had a lot of luck after running tests using different multipliers, tho that's with a Barton and not an A64....;)

[AMDX1325]

im not using a stock fan, its a kingwig or something fan, that i modded with a chameleon fan...i like lights :D

i cant change multiplier even when i tried everthing to work in manual mode

currently i upped the DDR voltage from 2.6 to 2.8, i hit 216fsb, which is 2375mhz, so close to 2.4, but any further fsb OC i would crash, maybe i should up some other voltages? im pretty sure my cooling is efficient...after OC my pc run 47c idle and 55 full load, so any suggestions? :bow:

are you using any SATA drives?

have you tried using clockgen to change mults?

does your board have a agp locK?

[AMDX1325]

i dont use sata, and i disabled them
i do have agp lock, but im not sure if its working or not
and i never used clockgen
my mobo is Abit KV8 MAX3

I was always told to up the memory voltage to the maxx, it has a lifetime warranty and most need volts to get the speed(2.8-3.1v).
Also, you`re only @ 1.57v?? Up the fsb till it locks then bump the core voltage up in small steps keeping an eye on the temps.

The first step in good overclocking is cooling!! Get yourself some good cooling before you start overclocking that 64 too much as they have to be kept cool.
