Please Help! OC with e2160/Gigabyte GA965P-ds3 rev1.3

[goforth80]

Hey, my setup is as follows, e2160 on a Gigabyte GA-965p-DS3(rev 1.3), CORSAIR XMS2 2GB (2 x 1GB) PC26400(I think the timings on it are 5-5-5-18),Gemini II cpu cooler, Blue Ice Pro Northbridge cooler, OCZ GameXStream 700W Power Supply. I've heard 3.4Ghz is possible. I am only wanting to get somewhere around 3-3.2ghz but it keeps messing up on me. Can someone tell me what to put all the settings at in the bios? Thanks alot!

your ram is kind of crappy, anyways just increase fsb and whenever it becomes increase vcore or dram voltage until its stable again also you can try to increase north bridge voltage if you want, this should get you a "good" oc

i have read alot of cases of low fsb wall on e2xxx. If memory is ok and voltages won't help, chances are you hit fsb wall and you won;t be able to move higher. I think 2,6-2,8 should be reasonable and stable for start. The problem is you can't tell what the fsb wall will be till you try, you might be lucky and be able to go up to 3.2-3.5
