To overclock my cpu from 8*266 to 8*333 i just change the cpu voltage from 0.0000 to 0.10000, with cpu voltage to 0.000 my computer don't start
To understand why when i resume to suspend to ram my computer freeze i try this.
No overclocking but just cpu voltage 0.100000
I start windows and read the vcore with cpu-z ( 1.325 + 0.1 V )
suspend to ram
resume
read cpu-z ( 1.325 + 0.0 V )

Right now, I am using the stock Intel CPu cooler but I don't think temperature is a problem though cause at 2.45Ghz, its running stable at 35C. The Antec 900 case also does a very good job of cooling the system down. And its not a stability issue either (yet) cause my problem is that the system won't even boot when I set the FSB to 1600 (400x7=2.8Ghz) so it does not even have time to heat up as well. Thanks

Thanks for the advice. I will try fiddling with the NB voltage to see it would help. I have read in one of the reviews for this MB in Newegg.com that he was able to OC his brd with the same CPU to 440x7 but unfortunately, he did not give details on how its done and since its not a forum, I have no way of contacting that person. Anyway, I will try your advice and see if there would be an improvement.

It has been tested and no problem to pass 1200Mhz barrier....
Intel® Core™2 Quad Processor Q6600 and corsair 800MHZ memory. OC to 1333MHZ.
memory used in a test:
the first group:Geil 1G 800MHZ
the second group:HyNIX 1G 800MHZ
the third group:Corsar 1G 800MHZ
the forth group:XTreem 1G 800MHZ
the fifth group:Vitesta 1G 800MHZ
If you experience the problem suggest you try with different memory brand/type.
And what stepping/revision Q6600 was this test done with? I've tried with Geil 800mhz rated sticks and Corsair 800mhz sticks in addition to my own personal Buffalo 800mhz sticks and it's all the same. At exactly 1200mhz it's like someone flipped a switch and the board won't POST. The ONLY way I've found to get it to POST past 1200mhz is to increase the VTT to 16% which is a bit worrysome... and with the 1.1 BIOS absolutely no increase in VTT is needed with the same setup. Keep in mind this has been tried with not only my own personal P6N Platinum, but also with two different P6N SLI FI boards I've got here in the shop. Heck I even ordered a brand new one just to test to see if the problem was based on a particular hardware revision.
Very puzzling... ??? ???

Did you have the system OC'd at all? The crackling you heard 'may' have been a capacitor gone bad. By the CPU, on the NB side I believe, do you see a little 1/4 or so round clear sticker with a number on it? Does it say 01, 02, or 03? I recently retired my P6N, but it was a 'great' board for a number of years. If you want to keep the board, it may have to go in for service. Trying another CPU might damage it too if something is wrong with the boards circuitry. MSI can also do a parts upgrade to the board & make it compatible with 45nm CPU's like the E8400-E8600 from a 01 02 03 revision board.
Hmmmmm...no sticker at all, I check all over the board. This was a newegg purchase in Feb 08' if that can say anything about what version it may be. Also, I did not have the system OC'd at all. Everything was running "as is". The crackle I heard could be better described as when something is being fried. The odd thing is, there was no smells, no busted caps or anything. If I were to replace something first (with new) which would you suggest? I am thinking a new mobo since the mobo I have now could do more harm than good. Or should I get RAM to see if the RAM was fried when my PSU failed? I see 3btech.com has a P6N SLI V2 (what's the V2 mean?) for like $80. Although, if its RAM, it could most definately be a cheaper fix (and I have more ram lol). Again, thanks for the help, it is greatly appreciated!!!

Msi p6n sli e6600 overclock setting might be wrong

Hello guys and let me say that this is my first post but have been a loyal reader for a while now and I must say that I enjoy the help that you guys have given me and everyone else for what I have read, keep up the good work and help you give to each other from nobbs like me to the experts that post here, anyway I wont bore you anymore I am just confussed about something that I need some help on here are my specs
msi p6n ali
e6600 at stock 2.4 speed
2gb Corsair XMS2 DDR2 800 4-4-4-12 @2.1v at stock
now I want to reach a 3.0 ghz cpu overclock and no more and leave the ram as it is, now this is my question, I get confussed when it comes to the cpu voltage and the ram, do I need to change the cpu voltage or just leave it at 0.00
also why is it that some people have the ram linked other have it manual what the deal here
I just want the ram to run as fast as it can without overclocking it
thanks so much guys and keep up the goos work

Here are my settings for a 6600 @ 3.42GHz.
FSB: 1520
Mem: 760
Mult: 9
CPU-V: +.1500
RAM-V: 2.05
NB-V: 1.35
SB-V: 1.50
VTT: 8%
Temps are very good, 24-51C.
I'm having a hard time running stable over 380MHz, even 3-5MHz over. Even using much higher voltages for everything won't test for long without a problem . The memory is certainly capable of much more than that. I've had the CPU to 4GHz but of course not stable with Orthos.
I'd like to have a better handle on what the VTT values should be.

P6N SLI Platinum Overclocking issue - Almost Fixed

Hi there,
(Specs are in signature)
I am new to overclocking and I am trying to OC my q6600 from 2.4 ghz stock speed to 2.8 or 3.0 ghz. What I tried is using the MSI's Dual Core Center Utility to Overclock my CPU first, it was stable for FSB 312x4 = 1248 MHz & CPU core Frequency @2.8 ghz with Memory bus frequency 780 MHz.
Then I rebooted the computer and typed in these values manually in BIOS but I had no post. What I did was only to change the default values ( FSB 1066MHz & RAM Frequency 666MHz ) to FSB 1248 MHz & RAM Frequency 780 MHz.
Any ideas about what's going wrong in here ?
(I tried the +- 1 Mhz combinations, No post again)
Thanks in advance.

I have read a lot before making my attempt, and finally I have managed to boot the system at the third try So here is what I did:
Step 1: I increased the FSB frequency from 1066mhz to 1333Mhz and left everything at AUTO with spread spectrum for CPU disabled.
Result: MSI boot screen showed up, followed by an ===========Exception========= screen.
Act: Reboot
Step 2: Increased CPU volt by + 0.0375, with the same settings above.
Result: MSI boot screen showed up, followed by an ===========Exception========= screen.
Act: Reboot
Step 3: Increased FSB VTT by %8, in addition to the settings above.
Result: Windows showed up .
Act: Enjoyment!
Now, I'm running temperature and stability tests, thanks for all the help
I'll keep you informed if I encounter stability errors and fix them hopefully.

MSI P6N SLI Platinum + E6850 + 533Mhz (PC-4200) RAM?

Hi,
I got hold of an E6850 (1333 MHz FSB) CPU for upgrade and I would like to know if it can run with 2Gb hynix RAM (533MHz PC-4200) on my MSI P6N SLI platinum (Rev 1.0). If it will run, how much performance loss would there be compared to using 667MHz or 800MHz RAM?
Thanks.

I am not sure if the Nforce Chipset/Memory Controller is able to support a memory bus speed that is lower than FSB Clock Speed. Intel Chipset usually can't do that (1:1 usually being the minimum ratio supported). However, on your board, the memory speed is not directly tied to the FSB Clock Speed and can be adjusted independently, so the situation may be different. The bottom line is: I can't tell you for sure if it will work or not and therefore suggest to simply test it and see what happens.

If it will run, how much performance loss would there be compared to buying PC-6400 800MHz RAM?
With the memory bus running slower than the Front Side Bus, there will be definately be a performance difference that is not insignificant.

Hibernate and suspend to RAM dont work!

Hi
whenever I try to suspend to RAM or hibernate my PC, they never get back! In both situations I get a screen full of garbage! Any ideas?
My PC is
K8N Neo2 Platinum
A64 3500
1GB RAM
X800XT Ocuk Edition (unlocked X800Pro)

You may try different suspend states in the bios.
As for Hibernate, it should always work. Hibernate is more of a windows feature and has nothing to do with Suspend. Basicly windows writes the content of the ram to the harddrive and shutdowns completly. When booting it will load the saved state instead of the regular boot. In theory, even a 486 should support Hibernate.

If your board has adjustments for the Northbridge chipset in bios try experimenting, i found that 600 mhz and 1.3 volts increased performance on my P6N diamond.
I've tried to overclock everything including processor, northbridge, memory and graphics card, the result is only about 100 points more, where I'm looking for like 1400 points more in 3DMark 2006 and whooping 4000 points in 3DMark 2005.

MOVED: P6N Sli Plat. weird cold boot issue

This topic has been moved to Overclockers & Modding Corner.
https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=116740.0

yeah well if I set the timing to like 5-5-5-15 or something I'm sure it'll work fine. But that's not the point... Cuz if I have to set my timings to 5-5-5-15 just to get it up to the 889mhz that I need it. I might as well just run the run in async mode at 4-4-4-12 800mhz.
Seriously I have the weirdest ram. I can run it at 4-4-4-12 800mhz with like 2.0 volts. So There's like 0.2 volts of overclocking there. But it just won't work at 889mhz. And it not like it doesn't pass memtest or orthos. The weird part is that it passes both at 889mhz at 4-4-4-12 timings at 889mhz. The problem is that it won't start cold boot. I'll have to press the power button and then press the reset button to get it to boot. I guess that's not a really big problem, but having to press that reset button each time I cold boot is just really annoying.
If I set them to 4-4-4-12 at 800mhz, the computer turns on fine.
I think the problem is the precharge for the ram. I'll bet loosening the timing will make it work, but I just don't want to loosen those timings...
I just bought new ram so we'll see if that solved my problems. :-P
It might be the electron migration thing though. I hear electron migration damage to things show up as random unpredictable problems.
I would say my problems are random and unpredictable.
By the way, I just got a couple of fans for the ran slots. They're sort of just jammed in there. Kind of not elegant really. But I now have TEN fans in the computer. I hope that helps my ram overclocking.

@ default settings it doesn't make "component test boot"
@333x9 it doesn't make "component test boot"
@from ~ 340fsb it starts to make "component test boot" every restart/power on.
I've already wrote it above
So, it is therefore not a malfunction with the mainboard, but an overclocking issue.
Two things:-
1) Posted in wrong section of Forum. https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?board=27.0
2) 1 or more of your components are not able to overclock as high as you would like to. After all, it is not just about adjusting the FSB, memory and voltages.....
I think it would be fair to close this thread.

MOVED: P6N SLI-FI with strap problems

https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=106888.0

If you are using this ram, then the specs look pretty good (5-5-5-15 @ 1.8v DDR2-800), so I'd just:
- leave it in "Linked' mode
- leave the memory voltage at 1.8 (or "Auto")
- go to advanced memory configuration and set it (everything) to "Auto"
- on the "Advanced CMOS Settings" page, under CPU Settings, Disable C1E (if it's not there, hit F4 to make it show up)
- back on the Cell Menu page, make sure D.O.T. and EIST are Disabled.
- on Cell Menu page, scroll to bottom and make sure ALL Spread Spectrum settings are Disabled.
...from there, you should just be able to adjust the FSB and CPU voltage. According to the link that Quadrifoglio Verde provided above...

Ok, solved problem.
2,xx GHz wasn´t stable, but 3,015 GHz is ROCK SOLID! Looks like 1333 MHz strap works...
VCore +0,0375, nothing else done, CPU Set to 335 MHz x 9.
...note that running your cpu in the 3GHz range, with higher voltage will cause it to run hotter - be sure that you have adequite cooling before attempting this (in other words, any overclocking you DO AT YOUR OWN RISK ).
Have fun.

Thanks for the tips, but I did get the onboard LAN adapter working again. I ended up having to power down the PC, removing all power to the mainboard, resetting the BIOS, and then it worked as expected.
My point is that the LAN adapter gets flakey when I start overclocking. I'm posting to gripe and also to see if anyone else has experienced this.
more likely this is attributed to a bug in the bios. you can flash your motherboard to the later bios release and try again. this is a very risky process as one bad flash can render your motherboard unusable. like i said, make sure u follow the instructions carefully before u proceed.
