Vista - Post your over-clocking results

**amigo max** · 06-30-2009

Hello Guys,

Post your over-clocking results if you have over-clocked your CPU with the model of it.

I got my Intel Core 2 duo E8400 3.00Ghz to 3.85Ghz at stock cooling!
(I cant Believe it too.)

got my cpu from 2.6 to 3.3 ran vista fine, started up a game and it kept dumping, turned it down to 3.25 and it is fine.

Theres already a thread for this. Its HERE

But anyway i run my e6600 at 3.6Ghz thats a 50% overclock on the stock 2.4Ghz and run my FSB at 450 which is a 69% overclock. All stable and use the pc everyday including gaming etc...

well i know there is another thread for it but its too crowded i cant actually make out the posts.

AND that's a good overclock , great going ... and BTW what cooling r u using?

**stew2** · 06-30-2009

Its custom built watercooling as my case is a micro atx case. It can fit the micro atx motherboard, 2 hard drives and 1 dvd drive and thats it. I put my pump for the watercooling where a second hard drive would go and it pretty packed and toasty in there. It wont even run with stock coolers lol.

I believe you got it there, but I also believe it would be running HOT

**fadedrs** · 07-01-2009

yeah on stock cooling she would be running very hot.

**amigo max** · 07-02-2009

No its not running hot as per my CPU ID software it shows 40-45 at idle and upto 65 at load (i don't know if it is true.)

Although i like HWmonitor, I think EVEREST gives more accurate readings. My CPU idles at 30C on both HWmonitor and Everest but the temps for each core are different with Everest giving more believable results.
