bigchrome Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 My board is dead I got my new ram and slot 3 wasn't working on the board, tried 2+4 and the system flipped out. Decided a bios flash was in order and you guys can probably guess what happened after I updated the bios... :( Link to post Share on other sites

lugnut Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 4.2 o AIr??? Not that I dont believe you but show it lol.. I can get mine to 4 on air but not stable yet.. And I have a bad cpu cooler Link to post Share on other sites
kfxsti Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 (edited) 4.2 o AIr??? Not that I dont believe you but show it lol.. I can get mine to 4 on air but not stable yet.. And I have a bad cpu cooler i am running the hyper 520 cpu cooler, and 5-6 case fans. my cpu idles around 29c oced at 3.6 gigs. just unlink your memory from the overclock and adjust your voltage to around 1.5 +- manually ,and adjust your multiplier between 18-20 then voila. if you are running the standard voltage then you will be luck to get 3.6 and if you are doing that then not that i dont beleive U but you will have to show me. IF lol, you have a decent cooler. the proc is very capable of the 4.2. go over to the sli forums and look at some of theirs . they are the ones who helped me with alot of problems i had setting this rig up, especailly getting the cpu to 4.2. i will post a pic of it when i get home.

terry1966 Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 well if both boards are knackered, i don't see the harm in using a soldering iron and swapping both chips, worst that could happen is you have 2 knackered boards. Link to post Share on other sites

terry1966 Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 easier if you have the tool to suck up the solder, just take your time and do one pin at a time, until all the pins are free and it's easy to pull out. if possible put some sort of clip(or copper wire) on the pins to remove the heat from the chip itself(don't want to burn it up) when using the soldering iron.
