Vista - Post Your Overclock Results.

4ghz....finally.


what do ya reckon..., check the FSB on that bad boy.....



13sec superPI



1150mhz @ CL5 ...(8GB )



she's stable but its swallowing 1.5v to keep her there, i hit 70c yesterday after an hour on GTA4 ....i need a new cooler



SK

Here is mine..can't remember if I've posted this or not ??? if so..sorry for the repost

....... nice fatboy






SK

Thanks..your numbers look good also. Is it Prime95 Stable? And I would defiantly get a new cooler.

Very nice

Pushing that thing to the limit before switching to a C2Q?

lol...... where you hiding that crystal ball Everlong..?? , yep thats the plan...

im gonna do a torture run today @ 1.6v....... lets see how high an FSB this board is good for, all the reviews said it stops dead @ 490mhz ..?? 520mhz here i come.....




SK

Smoke 'em if you got 'em

ok....... that didn't go at all well , pushing just 1mhz above a 500FSB actually caused all sorts of BIOS corruption....

i thought i had lost her at one point, she failed to boot AT ALL & the CPR failed to work, so i had to pull my GPU out & reset the CMOS manually & she came back to life...


so i think this boards limit is 500FSB, im pretty sure the chip was good for more (even though its a furnace at those frequencies...lol)


i will get a quad with a high multi & see how far i can push that (eventually)

I've got a small question... When I enter BIOS and see the value of VCore, it's 1.393V, but when I go to the Hardware Monitoring tab in the BIOS the value for the VCore is 1.360V... I know that some motherboards can't maintain desired voltage, or they can't report actual real value... I just would like to know which value should I believe - the one that I set up, or the one that the BIOS reports to me in the hardware monitoring tab.

Hi Majkel......


i'd be inclined to belive the ''monitoring tab'', the reading under the CPU stats could be its ''VID'', not current voltage.....
