    Rapbii,

    please post your system specs so people know what you have. Easier to help that way. Read these threads. They should have everything that you need:

    Rapbii,

     

    I have helped numerous people with overclocking, if those two links above dont help you enough let me know where you get stuck.

    First of all, do one thing at a time - CPU, then the memory, then the GPU if needed or wanted.

     

    Set memory mode to Unlinked, this was specified in threads linked to above.  Disable the "C1E" and Speedstep options in the BIOS CPU section.  In the BIOS Overclock section, for the CPU @ 3.2GHz I have the FSB set to 1400MHz I think, and set CPU voltage @ 1.35v.  If your system freezes, then the CPU voltage at 1.40v.  Try that and let us know how it works.

    You need to manually try different voltage setting, depending on how much you OC (higher voltage for higher frequency). Here's a setting that may get your CPU to 3.2GHz:

    FSB frequency = 1420

    CPU voltage = 1.4V

    FSB voltage = 1.35V

    Chipset voltage = 1.4V 

     

    If it's not stable, lower your FSB until it is.

      

    Remember that not because your neighbor's system can get to 3GHz, you're supposed to get to 3GHz as well. None CPU behaves the same.

    In the "VTT = 1.35V" you mention above, I'm assuming you mean the FSB voltage.  I don't remember seeing a VTT option in the 630's BIOS Voltage settings.

    Yup, it's FSB voltage in BIOS. Sorry for the confusion. My answer was edited
