Help me with my first OC!
could you help me with OCing?
i just attempted my first OC....I've got a duron 800 and a soyo sy-k7vta-b. I've unlocked the duron by way of the pencil trick, and it was successful(in that it unlocked it) I have the CPU running at 850 now(8.5x100)....it's stable as far as i can tell, did everything i normally do(check e-mail, stuff like that)...i played UT and got an average of 10fps faster(yay)....i upped my voltage from 1.6 to 1.73...which is fine, i went up about 1C in temp after this, i'll probably put the vcore down to about 1.62 or so. The main question is, i've got it at 850.....but i can't get it to 900.....it simply won't post, so this is the original reason i tried to up the voltage....when i put it back down to 850 it boots up fine. Since i can't see any major problem with either stability or temperature, what's the problem? Anything i should know as this is my first OC? Thanks! Also, i had it at 103x8.5 and it came into windows then locked up....at 110x8.5 i had to reset my cmos since it wouldn't post at all there. should i try it at 9.5 or something? how do i get it to 900 minimum? thank
