3000+ venice

Whats the maximum overclock people have managed to get from this processor.

I don't know what the stepping is, as cpu-z won't read it and i don't want to remove the HS (again )

 

[senorstealth]

Was thinking that 2.2 - 2.3 was a realistic figure

Thanks for the advice guys, least u know wht its capable of now

The current 3000+ Venice chips are clocking nicely - bought one the other day and it's currently running @2.6 on stock volts - memory is on a divider, though still slightly clocked and running with tight timings.

Now thats what i wanted to hear, think its time to buy some new ram

You really don't want to know, tried underclocking it the other day so i could push the cpu and it really didn't like that very much.

It Crucial pc3200 3.4.4.8 @ T1, though its not a matched pair (ones a double sided stick)

Looking at something along the lines of G.Skill 2GB DDR HZ PC4000

2gb is becomming the minimum now days, plus there a reasonable price.
Should really have changed the ram a while ago but never had the money

Should let get at least 2.4 -2.5 out of the venice which is nice

Cool, now all i have to do is see if i have the money left after paying car insurance
