***The Official 6320/6420 Overclocking Thread***

Well there hasent been many 6320 Posts in this thread so far, so i feel inclinded to add my own =)
odd thing to note is that regardless of what i do, 400fsb WILL NOT POST
2.80ghz seems to be a nono with my system 
This is the highest Pi clock i could get, anything over this by even 4mhz results in instant fail for Pi
And this is the Highest Stable Orthos clock ive got, even a smidge over snags me a crash in about 30min ~ 2 hours

new to Intel clocking so be gentle I have my E6420 at 3.3 tried to run Orthos and got the message below? Vcore 1.48 and 8 x 420 what does this mean please?
Any advice would be great
Personally I would try upping your vcore a little to 1.5v+
What are your temps on full load mate?
Well for the period Orthos was running they were 42 - 45?
I have a Thermalright Ultra-120 Extreme in an Antec 900 case in a cool room (hate being hot)
Whats the max vcore on these with good cooling?
Whats settings do you have to reach 3.6ghz stable may I ask?

Also check your ram timings and voltage, had to tweak mine to get Orthos running stable @3.2. I'm still on stock voltage for CPU though.

Well if thats your temps on load then you aint go no problem
What you using to mesure your temps as some programs do vary.I would try with 1.5-1.55v and see how you go. Max voltage I would say is probably 1.6v but it all depends on your temps tbh and what cooling your using.
Personally I use 1.5v for 3.6Ghz and my full load is about 51c (im on water), use 2.4v for my ram with stock timings. Think I notched up the NB to +0.1v.
And im fully prime stable too.
My stepping is SLA4T MALAY / L651B731
Give it a go and see what happens as you seem to have a good chip there.

Did Orthos last night, idle temps 22-25 load 52max
vcore is 1.5 do you think theres more in the chip still? I have an Antec 900 case, with a Thermalright 120 Extreme cooler, DS3R board!
Nice dude, I got an 8 hour orthos blend out of mine @ 3.6 with 1.5v core, earlier in the thread with similar temps. Seems a nice CPU you have :> what stepping?
for 3.6 orthos stable i used:
vCore: 1.5v
vDimm: 2.2v
Nbridge: +0.1v
all other voltages @ stock
Memory timings were 5-5-5-15
http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showpost.php?p=9578038&postcount=348
since that post, I brought the north bridge down to stock, RAM is now running at 4-4-4-12 ( ballistix 8500 ) on 2.1v, vCore now at 1.49
[edit] i should add though that i've not really done much that's pushed the CPU in the last two weeks, just some WoW occasionally and a quick compile. I've a suspicion that 1.49 is borderline unstable at 3.6 if I really had to push things. Just too much damn work at the moment [/edit]

Can't seem to get passed 3.4ghz no matter what vcore (1.6) even
vDimm is at 2.2 (Ballistix 5300)
Nbridge +1
Even tried x7 multiplier and 500 fsb and still no joy
Memory timing 5-5-5-15
temps aren't an issue with my setup?
Any advice?

Maybe try a different bios for your motherboard? What motherboard are you using m8?

I think theres a F4beta out but I may be wrong?
Any idea's
EDIT: I'm on F2 atm m8 installed via @bios when I built the system this week
Give it a go mate, just had a look and F4b Beta seems to be the latest for your motherboard m8. You might have more luck with that m8, otherwise you can always flash back.
