Minimum overclock problem

[lobo001]

Hello,
I have an i7-920 and I have always had it overclocked a bit (it comes with 2667 and I have it at 3000)
The problem came up today when it gave me an error when booting. The only way to get it to boot is with the base numbers (without OC).
I reinstalled the bios (the latest for my motherboard and which didn't give me problems before!) and when I overclocked it just a little (up to 3000) it gave me the error again and rebooted from the bios.
I haven't installed any new hardware (I only added 1 more auxiliary fan of 12!!)

Do you know where the error might be coming from.
The power supply I have is just enough but sufficient, although it is a few years old. Maybe it could be coming from the power supply?? I don't know, …..

Check the voltage of the CMOS battery, in case it is worn out and does not retain the settings.

And all the additional information you can give about the board, memory, and especially the power supply, that you can give, or create the signature with that data.

Salu2!

Thanks for responding…
No, the battery is not the problem because I changed it less than 10 days ago.
I leave you my signature with my team!!

That mix of memories is a recipe for problems. Do the 4GB and 1GB modules have the same latencies?

I would remove the 1GB modules and leave it with 3x4GB which is already quite a lot.

Regards!

P.D.: I'm not sure what your source is, is any of these?

The source is this: http://lc-power.de/index.php?id=45&L=1
And about the memos, you're right!!

[Fassou]

Well, if that's your source, with so many HDDs, a GTX, and overclocking an LGA1366, you're just right, just right :mute: Salu2!

Best regards!

Yes, that's exactly what I was thinking. The thing is that until now I had never had the slightest problem...!!!

@lobo001:

Si, eso mismo habia pensado. Lo que ocurre es que hasta ahora nunca habia tenido el mas minimo problema…!!!

Puede sonar a coña, pero el ventilador nuevo puede haber sido el detonante del fallo, quizás el piquito de potencia que necesita hace que la fuente llegue al tope y pete… suena raro, pero podría ser.

Lo de las memos es totalmente cierto, ese desbarajuste solo puede ocasionar disgustos :facepalm:

Nothing, I removed the 3 1gb memos. I reinstalled the latest bios again, I uploaded that little bit that we talked about and it works stable.
I am still leaning towards the source, so I have to change.

Thanks for your answers!!!

Well, if it always goes just right, it degrades, and it goes well for a while until it starts to fail. Or simply the last component added overwhelms it.

If with the change made it goes well, it's fine, but it's not worth being like this with the font so tight (then the scratches come).

I join the problem. I do it directly from the EPU, I upload a 10% and the performance decreases.
It doesn't crash, but it slows down. If I restart, the bios message says overclock failed, f2 to default settings….
I've been dragging it along for a while now, and I was getting more and more convinced that it's the power supply....

[lobo001]

Anyway, I've done some research on the net and I've seen an interesting article with a test (especially with 1 gtx460 1 gb at full and cpu at full) where the total consumption is not so exaggerated!!
Seeing this article I return to the doubt if it's the source, jajaja!!!!

Your non-OC rig (and your graphics card comes with it from the factory) exceeds 400W, although at rest it can drop to ~250W.

Check out this Calculator to get an idea.

Salu2!

-and according to the efficiency of the power supply, no? around normal… 80%
Supposedly mine has 85% with PFC but, it's from 2009 when the 80plus certificate wasn't passed yet. Which I disagree with. Even so, it would be about 110w less...
I still think it's the power supply, a couple of months ago I already made a post, thinking it was the graphics card that wasn't working well. But no, when I stress-test the graphics card it goes up 6 fps on average, so it works. In contrast, when I stress-test the processor, it goes down.
Let's see if anyone has another possible idea

Either you create another post or revive yours, because stepping on someone else's post is not a way to behave. :osvaisacagar:

Man, if I'm going to open the umpteenth post, and you're going to answer with such nonsense... better not to open it, king, and you save yourself the typing
I neither step on it nor occupy nor resist, I'm interested because I have the same problema.No I think the kid doesn't care, let's go.
Let's see if the next one who responds says something interesting.

For all this, perhaps the only way to know if we are really being charged fairly is to go down to the Chinese store and buy a power meter for outlets. And that tells us the instant consumption at that outlet and we can use the rule of three.
