best way to OC 1900+?

[flyguy42]

Hey guys, new here... but heres my question. I have a 1800 in the machine now... unlocked... and I just bought a 1900. Now.. I want to OC this pocessor too... but I dont wanna unlock it if I dont have to. Being that, on my 1800... i get better results keeping the multiplier stock, and running up the FSB. They both get around the 1725Mhz mark... Anyways... Basicly I want to know what the best results are with the 1900. I am currently aircooled with on of those big Swiftech deals... MCX series... the big one..

why not check out overclockers.com.

i took a peek, and the average overclock for a 1900+ XP is 1811Mhz.

12x153 here with a brand new 1900+, mc462 as the cooler. very smooth and very fast.

i can get more, but the sucker will do spontaneous reboots @155FSB, might be the 5 volt leg.

i am going to keep trying for the 155FSB, oh, this is with a full gig on DDR occupying all slots on an 8kha+.

my 1700+ ran the 155 fairly easily.

Man, I cant get it to boot right with anything over 146Mhz. It will post at 150Mhz, but I get a message from windows about a corrupt file... So what do you think is my problem? Motherboard? RAM? CPU? Hmmm...heres what I have in my rig now...
