Weird on board sound after o/clock

[pistyll]

Hi all,

Any ideas comments appreciated, I am fairly new to overclocking and have experienced a strange speeding up of onboard sound after overclocking my Athlon 64 3000+ Winchester, can anyone tell me how to return sound to normal, I need to keep the overclock as I am very happy with the overclocked perfomance. My system specs and overclock are as follows :-

Athlon 64 3000+ Winchester
MSI K8N Neo 2 platinum mobo
only one stick of 512meg pc3200 generic ram at the moment waiting for 2 sticks of G-Skill pc3200 to arrive from states
LG GS4163B dvd burner
Pioneer 16x slot dvd
Freezer 64 heatsink & fan
2 80mm inlet 2 80mm outlet fans
1 pci exhaust fan
1 80mm side window fan
2 x cold cathode tubes
550w psu
ATi Radeon 9800 pro 128meg ram
Maxtor 120gig 7200 h/drive

Stock settings


200 x 9 = 1800mhz
HT multiplier to 4
1 stick 512 meg DDR400
2 t ram timings
cool & quiet enabled
AGP set to 66


o/clocked results

260 x 9 = 2340mhz
HT multiplier to 4
1 stick PC3200 memory divided to DDR266
1t ram timings
Cool & quiet disabled
AGP set to 67 to lock down


overclocked results 540mhz tested on sandra gives 3500+ performance

AS I say I am pretty happy with the overclock but I need to know how to get onboard sound back to normal can anyone out there help please???

Are you using onbaord sound? It seems pretty obvious that the OC is whats causing the higher pitch on music/ sound. Some sound chips do that when overclocked. Some XP Abit boards were bad for it. AFAIK, there no cure, but try www.rhcf.com theres a dedicated MSI forum in there, Polygon will helpyou, hes a genius
