My Specs:
Board: Intel D975XBX2
Bios: 2507
CPU: Intel E4300 (1.8Ghz, 2MB L2)
RAM: Kingston KVR800D2E5K2/2G (2x 1GB DDR2-800, ECC)
Ram settings:
Mem reference freq: 266
Mem freq: 667
Mem timings: 5-5-5-16 (default)
Mem voltage: 1.84V (default)
Setting Mem freq to 800 works also, no problem there, i just wanted to give it a little room.
CPU-Settings:
CPU Voltage: 1.325V (default)
Enhanced power slope: disabled (enabling does not help)
FSB Voltage: 1.250 (default)
MHC/ICH Voltage: 1.525 (default)
Multiplicator: 9 (default, cannot be changed, not even down?)
FSB: 265
Misc-Settings:
Bus-override settings left at default
EIST enabled (disable did not make a difference)
This results in a cpu speed of 2385 Mhz. As I said, as soon as i hit 266 FSB, it won't POST anymore. At this speed, I can even lower the CPU voltage to 1.300V, Prime95 runs without problems. At these "low" speeds, increasing the voltage should not be necessary, i guess. I tried upping the cpu voltage a bit, but, no luck there.
Anyone else having a E4300 with better luck? Am I missing something?[/b]
