Overclocking Asrock SATA2 939dual [asrock 939dual sata2] [4g]
Q: I can not get my BIOS to the institution 11X2200 when I try to keep overclocking. I turned to cool and set u0026 Fri PCI and CPU asynch. My bios is 1.50. It is long since Ive tried overclocking a CPU. Latter was an AMD 1.4G on a board where I had to set the jumpers. So, I was out for a while. I looked all over the internet, but have not seen anything specific to my problem. Each suggestions.
System is: AMD 64 X2 3800 Asrock 939 dual SATA 2 977 503 1.50
bios 2 gigs Gskill PC3200 RAM 977 503 250g SATA2 HDD
Re:Fantastic….I used Blue Weasel's recommendations and am running at 2.4 with stock cooler. f4Phantom thanks for the link which I appreciate and will study. Now to play some games and make sure everything is cool…..

Re:guy Your the best. Thanks so much for this help
Re:Here are the general settings I'd recommend if you are trying to get 240×10. Also, if you are running at 240 HTT, then set your memory divider to 166 (forces the RAM to run at exactly PC3200 speeds).
Overclock mode CPU, PCIE Async
PCIE Frequency 100
Boot Failure Guard Enabled
Spread Spectrum Auto
Cool n Quiet Disabled
Dual Core Support Enabled
Processor Max Multiplier x10
Processor Max Voltage 1.35-1.40v (with the stock cooler, I'd try to keep it at 1.40v or lower)
Multiplier/Volt change Manual
Processor Multiplier x10
Processor Voltage 1.400v
CPU-NB Link Speed 600 (ie, 3x)
CPU-NB Link width 16
NB-SB Link Speed 600 (ie, 3x)
NB-SB Link Width 16
HTTtoPCIBridgeDecodeScheme Subtractive
DRAM Voltage Auto
Since you've got the stock cooler, I'd keep the CPU voltage at 1.40v or lower. Most 3800+ overclock well with little or just a slight bump in voltage, so you've got a great chance to hit 2.4Ghz.
Be sure and read this ASRock thread over at EOC (http://forums.extremeoverclocking.com/showthread.php?t=196664)
Re:Thanks blueWeasel…That is the information I was looking for. Also, I have a stock CPU fan on my system. I remember hearing people getting 2.4 on stock cooling. Do you think that would be a problem. If I look to go any higher I surley would go out and get an Artic Cooler or something else. And am I right to set Pci and Cpu to asynch and disable cool & quiet? Thanks for your help….
Re:Leave the multiplier at 10x and bump up the FSB/HTT to 240. Make sure that your HTT frequency is at 4x or lower. With that board and X2, you should be able to hit 2.4 (240×10) easy.
Re:OK…Then I am confused. If I want to OC my CPU to 2.4 should I change the CPU frequency from 2000 to 2400? I thought the multiplier was the way to bump the CPU up.
Re:The highest multiplier on the 3800+ is 10x and 11x isn't available.
