6800 GT won't overclock

running easy bios 3, fine, all nvidia other features fine. when I try to overclock the card, it goes in to an eternal test loop. i suspect a reg. conflict on some obscure windows tab? the extra pixels unlocked all right as well. have'nt tried changing card bios yet. !!

thanks again, i went ahead with far cry with no oc, looks good enough to huff. just what 'is' the name of the utility that lets you see frame rate bound as a macro at any time i want? that's the limit of my oc jones.

Z87-GD65 won't Overclock

Got My Z87-GD65 back from RMA.When i try to set my 4770k to 4.2ghz in bios its reverts to 39 only.I have flash to latest bios and still same thing.It wont let me overclock at all.I switched to bios B,and still locked at 3.9ghz.Even OC Genie won't overclock it.Did i get a worst board than the one i RMA'd.The one i sent in had a bricked bios A,but B still worked.Even my ram i set the xmp profile to 2400,but only does 1600.

GF4 Ti4200 won't overclock?

Hey guys,
This isn't so much a problem, more of a query. I just purchased an MSI Geforce4 Ti4200 128mb DDR and overall am very happy with it. Although whenever I attempt to take the core clock speed or the memory clock speed up (either using the advanced display properties or the MSI 3D! Turbo Experience) and reboot, the changes have never taken effect. They seem to just default back to the most stable settings (464/250). I know this card can go to 'at least' 510/270 but no matter wot I do it won't let me :-(
Anyway hope someone can help me out. There's no hurry mind, the default settings are running everything fine atm :-)
Cheers ppl

MEMORY
128MB high-speed 128-bit DDR (Double Data Rate)

I could be wrong here but the 64MB version has the 500mhz memory clock rate.

6800 GT won't run smoothly with sata hd's installed

I was just wondering if any one else has had this problem. My BFG 6800 GT freezes up for 5-10 seconds at a time when I try to run games or benchmarks. I am able to get it to run smoothly when I remove my sata hd's. Also if I put a different video card in and leave the sata's it will run with out problems. Keep in mind that these parts were all running just fine together on an XP Nforce2 board. They also work just fine on a K8t800 pro board that I am using now. If anyone has any ideas I would appreciate the help.

hmm no overclock.....
when you say you tried higher voltage do you mean AGP voltage or did you mod the vidcard bios?
you could try 2d/3d clocks set the same

It's common to suggest to upgrade BIOS. I recommend not to unless it is essential, and reading the comments on manufacturer site do no harm either.
There are two ways to OC SandyBridge and above CPUs, one is change the clock, and the other is change Turbo settings, so lets try that way.
Load optimized defaults, change vcore as before then set all cores boost ratio (in CPU Features) to 42 (Turbo must be enabled). On my board is enough if I set 4 cores to 42 but would be safer to begin with all of them at 42.
Try with OverSpeed Protection disabled, or enabled and power limits 130 for short and 120 for long.
My CPU runs 4 threads of Prime95 (v28.5 AVX) at about 100W at 4.2GHz. So maybe for testing only, disable hyper-threading.
Another thing may be insufficient vcore maybe? Not sure what safe vcore is for 2600k, so look it up before increasing.
Ok, I tried this all and still got the same results. I enabled Turbo, then changed all the values that you suggested with the ratio at 42 and vcore at 1.3. When running 8 test threads in prime95 I still only get up to 3.9. I tried again, enabling enhanced turbo, but it didn't change anything. The only thing that I did not try was disabling overspeed protection, and I'll try that now, but if it doesn't, what is going on?

P6N won't overclock

I am feeling totally stupid here, but I cannot overclock this board even a little bit.
I've tried setting the FSB speed froim 1333 to 1340, and it boots fine, but then hangs with a loud noise from the sound card. There is also no way to adjust the CPU voltage in the 1.5 BIOS. It displays 0.0000.
What is going on here?
I have loaded the latest nForce 650 SLI drivers from nVidia, All nTune will do is increase the the PCI-E bandwidth, and not touch the memory or CPU speed settings. System runs fine otherwise.
Should I ditch the Creative Audigy sound card? Does that play in a OC situation?
thanks

H67ma-e35 won't overclock

I have a h67ma-e35 mainboard with a I5-2500K CPU and I wan't to overclock, but it seems to be impossible to do so on this mainboard.
Whenever I put the cpu on a higher mulitplyer and reboot it always reverts back to the old multiplyer and thereby undoing the overclock, this happens with the bios and msi control center.
Does anyone here have a idea how I could get some overclocking going on my system without buying a new mainboard....

MSI X79A-GD65 (8D) won't overclock after bios 4.1 update

Just updated my bios to 4.1, unable to overclock after the update, multiplier stuck at 32 or sometimes 38. I've set everything as before with bios 1.8 but no success. Bios boots normally (does not say failed OC)
Is there some new setting to enable OC in 4.1 or
Intel i7-3930k @ 4.7GHz * Nvidia GTX 680 (1.25GHz/6.6GHz) * MSi X79A-GD65 (8D) * 32GB DDR3 G.Skill RipJaws * SSD's & HDD's * Asus Xonar Essence STX
CPU&VGA Watercooled * CoolerMaster HAF-932 * Corsair AX 1200W * 27" Asus VG278H 3D 120Hz * Windows 8 Pro x64

found out my issue... I used to set the ratio limit for each core under CPU Features submenu but in 4.1 I have to set the "Adjust CPU Ratio" in overclocking menu, it default on auto.
So all is good

P67-G45 won't overclock

Hello. I have a P67-G45 that I bought several years ago. Lately, I have been trying to overclock my CPU to about 4.2 ghz or so. Being new to overclocking, I made many mistakes at first, but I think that I have the hang of it now. I set the CPU Ratio to 42 in my BIOS and set the voltage to 1.3. After tweaking a few other things according to a tutorial on an overclocking forum, I restarted my system and opened CPU-Z, RealTemp, and Prime95 to test it. However, when I run a Prime95 test, for some reason my CPU ratio will not go above 3.9. When not running Prime95, it breifly can go to 4.0 or even 4.1 sometimes before going back down to an idle 1.6 or so. What is going on? According to the control center, everything is set to 4.2 (well, 42 I guess), but the multiplier is staying at 39 maximum when running a stress test. You can read this thread over on another forum with full details of my overclocking experience thus far here :http://www.overclock.net/t/1542410/overclock-i7-2600k

MOVED: MSI Amd Radeon HD 7870 Hawk won't overclock

This topic has been moved to Overclocking, Undervolting.
https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=165481.0

Interestingly enough, after reading your post, I did some checking with mine. I have the core voltage bumped up to 1.237 in afterburner (note: it rounds the voltage to the nearest 3/10 of a volt I think) and the clock at 1150 for testing, down from 1200 where it's been for a couple of months due to recent crashes in BL2.
Both GPU-Z and HWiNFO64 show 0.825v at idle and 1.219v under load! Afterburner, however, shows 1.3v using it's in system tray monitoring tool.
So now I don't know what to believe. It seems as if it's not changing for me as well.
Tomorrow I'm going to hook up the leads and check it with my VOM so I can see for myself.

I REGRET OVERCLOCKING!

Today is the saddest day in my life.
My Barton 3000+ processor has died on me yesterday night when I was trying to overclock it.
This is what I did:
1) I set the multi at 11 and raised the FSB to 200MHz, saved settings and exit.
--System didn't post at all--
2) Cleared the Cmos.
3) Repeated step one but I increased the Vcore to 1.75. Saved changes and exit.
--System won't post again--
4) Cleared Cmos.
5) System won't post (bad sign).
6) I've swaped memory modules and it work.
7) Set modules to dual channel mode again before attempting any overclock.
8) I set the multi at its default speed (13). Set the FSB to 166MHz. Saved changes.
--System worked well--
9) I increased the FSB by a factor of two increments (e.g: 166-168-170...). Maximum overclock achieved was 182MHz without increasing the Vcore. Save changes.
10) --System worked well at @2366MHz.
10) Increasing the FSB to more than 184MHz made system unstable.
11) Cleared Cmos.
12) I've set the FSB to 184MHz and increased the Vcore to 1.75. Saved changes.
13) --System won't post--
14) cleared Cmos.
14) --System still won't post--
15) I swapped the memory modules and only used one stick in ALL banks.
16) --System still won't post--
17) I'm starting to get desperate.
18) After playing around with the memory modules, in a sudden the system is working.
19) I've started to suspect that the mobo was damage.
20) Went to BIOS and this time I've set the multi at 10 and the FSB at 200 (I wanted to make the processor run synchronously with ram). saved changes.
21) --System won't post.--
22) Cleared Cmos.
21) System is working, but the weird thing of all is that after setting the multi at 10 and the FSB at 166MHz (Processor's default FSB). I saved the changes to Cmos but the mobo reports the processor speed at 2166MHz instead of "1660" (10x166).
22) I increased the FSB to 170MHz and the mobo is reporting processor speed at @2210MHz instead of @1700MHz.
23) I'm suspecting that the multi is not working on the processor or the the mobo is faulty.
23) Did the same steps from above but using 11 multi instead of 10.
24) Same damn problem.
25) I've set the multi at 11, increased the FSB to 200MHz and increased the Vcore from from its default 1.65v to 1.80v. Saved changes.
26) --System won't post--
27) cleared Cmos.
28) System won't post.
29) I'm starting to pray asking the Lord to help me on this one.
30) --System still won't post--
31) I'm getting desperate. Don't know what to do since I've swapped memory modules to see if the trick worked but it didn't.
32) Went to sleep. (I couldn't)
33) Next day I went to a retail shop to test the machine with a next processor.
34) Their processor works flawlessly in my mobo.
35) Now, I'm f*cked up.
I used a good power supply, a good pair of memory modules .
Some one suggested me to increase the FSB to 200 and lower the multi at 11 just to start with. The problem I found is that system won't post even decreasing the multi at 10.
If any one is asking which type of cooler I had, well, I was using a Thermal Take Volcano with good silver-based thermal paste (is not AS-5, but it does the work well).
What went wrong????
Can any one give me a clue???

Quote
did you monitor the temp?
Yes I did. In deed, processor temp never went beyond 47ºc.
Quote
18)=Check your ram.
Ram is OK. I tested both on another mobo and they're fine.
Now I have to live with a burned-up processor for the rest of my life.
Next time I won't overclock in my life no matter if the processor has unlocked multipliers. I'm traumatized for life.
