Hrm, if you're new to overclocking I'd read the "how to" thread first...

Secondly, being an ASUS RoG board you have that lovely function, CPU Level up, simply press enter on that and select the next cpu above. Check stability and if you want, go higher.

Note: Crazy really is for crazy people! ;)

Ohh My GOD

Thanks its Easy way to OC

Now i get 3.5 (Crazy)

But cpu Temp up 50-60 C ! !

its normal ? ? ?

 
Personally I wouldnt use the crazy setting, but instead use maybe one or two at the most above what your current CPU is.

That way you will get a better temperature, but still a fast PC...
 
Do it manually. I'm sure a lot of q9450's get to around 4ghz... I know you don't know how but the theory is in this article.

For 45nm processors safe cpu voltage is 1.45v and don't go over 1.4v on your fsb termination voltage...

Looking good mate, what kind of software you run to check your pc stable? And what temp you got when your pc idle and 100% load?

Am using CPUZ and Asus Ai Suite (its Asus Maximus II Formula (P45) motherboard software)

When i put full load,i get 70-80 C

Just that I think your pc not 100% stable, you should use prime95 or orhtos for the streess test.
 
I'm trying to clock a Q9400 on a Maximus II Formula. I'm stuck at 3.80. Nirojasi, I'm wondering what your speeds and voltages are at because we have the same RAM, too. If you could post screenshots or just the text of what you see in BIOS... that'd be awesome.

Thank you.
 
Edit to that.. the safe volts is 1.38v.

Also, yes those temps are fine :)

Be careful with those auto ups.. it ups your volts on everything and could be on a high level which might burn out your chip very easily.

I personally hate them. I do it manually... using a part of the BIOS software to do it for you takes all the fun out of it!
 
Magic Numbers for you.

1.2855V for the FSB

1.19275V for the Northbridge.

CPU multiplier to 6x

Don't touch any of the other voltages, you should then be able to raise the FSB to 480MHz.

Because what is the point in putting in the same information on the same thread..? That is why I asked why you have done it.

It's not two threads.. it's two pages.

No. It was two threads.

Why copy and paste that in twice?

Why write something you've already wrote twice? All he did was quote himself. Which was the 'right' thing to do considering what he said is appropriate and applies to both topics.
