Could use some advise.
To get right to it, here are the specs of my system:
Motherboard ASRock 990FX Extreme3
Bulldozer FX-8120 Overclocked to 3.6
CPU/NB 2600mhz
CPU/NB Voltage 1.3v
HT 2600mhz
HT Voltage 1.25 (Tried 1.3v)
G. Skill Sniper Series 2 x 4GB 1866mhz (Stock Timing)
Dram Voltage 1.5v
F3-14900CL9D-8GBSR
Other Hardware:
Win7-64bit
Tri-Fire 4870x2 + 4870 1GB
Antec 1200
Corsair H100
1000w Rosewill
Problem:
Guide says that I need 2800mhz CPU/NB frequency to handle the higher memory frequency, however I cannot get to 2800mhz CPU/NB frequency stable at all. Anything over 2600mhz will not boot with any amount of voltage supplied. I keep getting a random BSOD every hour or so. It is close to being stable with 2600, though I can't seem to pinpoint the exact issue.
All power savings settings disabled. Spread Spectrum, C1E, Turbo, LLC (tried enabling and disabling), etc.
Is 2600mhz CPU/NB enough to sustain the 1866 frequency?
I will do a memtest today to make sure the memory is playing together properly.
Thanks for any help or advice.
