Go into bios, the FSB should be at 333 (or 1 mhz around it) right now. Change it to 400 and your set. Now also, you do have PC-3200 ram right? (just to make sure it can handle 400 fsb without any problem) |
Well the true FSB is 166x2 so if your BIOS shows the real FSB you have to increase it to 200 so it would get a 400 FSB. Alos before saving this setting, lower your CPU multiplier. It might be that your CPU might not overclock just as good as Jonobo's CPU. So now your CPU works at 166x##. Changing the FSB you will get 200x## but it might be too much, and you won't even be able to boot the system, and have to wait for it many hours until the CPU is at room temperature and can hold on at boot until you change the BIOS (I know it hapened to me)
After a few tests where you can see the RAM is stable at the speed slowly increase the CPU multiplier and retest until you reach the ceeling of it's speed on current cooling and voltage. From here on you're on your own if you try to increase voltage and other stuff.
