[REQUEST] Acer Aspire 3680: CPU Upgrade

[TomasT]

I see only one advantage: dual channel mode with 4 GB (2+2).

I will use this, thank You vm!

I just received 2x2 GB of RAM, how do I enable dual channel mode? or does this happens automatically?

It is also interesting that CPU Z indicates that my chipset is I945 PM.

I am currently using 667 FSB modules, as I increase the multipliers of cpu, system shows that they are running at 803 Mhz or so, will it be ok if I will start using 800 MHz modules of ram instead?

It's useless. Show from CPU-Z

Yes CPU-Z shows different information

945PM chipset supports DDR2 with 667 Mhz maximum.

Thank You for helping to clarify this.

DeathBringer, could you share your opinion about throtlestop, is it enough to change multiplier to t7600g, or should I use more settings, like c states , chipset modulation ets.  I don't understand that deep about making system stable with 3.1 Ghz using 19x. I raise voltage to 1.475 and as 3.1 Ghz is reached system shuts off.

Thank You for any help here.

Who could help me with integrating voltage control in aspire 3680bios? I saw this done with MSI desktop bios for Athlon 64. Works just great.

Also, does I945PM could support 4 gigs if bios is unlocked or it only supports dual channel mode? Does this mean that windows 7 64 bit is better than windows 7 32 bit with such configuration?
