What's the difference when Overclocking?

1.8v can easily kill a 90nm, but it's like putting 1.8v through a 130nm is like 1.7v through a 90nm. Stock vcore is 0.1v higher on the 130nm over the 90nm.

NewCastle 130nm process
San Diego 90nm process

Need I say more.

The 3500 was actually 110nm process

Still, point proven though

No, they're either 90 or 130nm depending on the particular core type.

dont tempt me my finger is hovering over the rtm button

thats what i thought jokester - and it was confirmed by a trip to amd.com

smids · 2 Apr 2006 at 21:53

The only thing I know which is 110nm is the 7800 series GPUs and I believe the X800 series (I'm positive about the nV, just not the ATi).

m3csl2004 · 2 Apr 2006 at 21:54

i think some chipsets are aswell

The front of the cascade

helpimcrap · 3 Apr 2006 at 12:36

seriously nice.

you have a cascade system proably worth over a grand, a £600 chip and youre telling me youre skint.

try 2gig of value ram and a 146 opty on aircooling... thats skint.

fatty1 · 3 Apr 2006 at 12:52

The cascade I built myself most of my pc parts came from work trade type stuff
What I want to do is try some low end chips under the cascade see if I can make em rock

Explicit · 3 Apr 2006 at 12:53

Oh.

My.

God.

What a beast! :eek:

Pop a Dual Core Intel P4 805 in there. See if you can hit 5ghz?

Oo try a 2.8 northwood celeron with an 845 board running 512mb pc2700 ram and a 9800pro that will only run 265 mem

yes i am from yorkshire

I would like to try an old school barton or something but the only parts I have kicking about is an ols p3 loooool

You thought about the P-D 2.66ghz '805' dual core? Would be nice to see how they go and they are cheap. Intel's seemingly love cold temps too...

fatty1 · 3 Apr 2006 at 17:35

Yeah I just dont have any mobo's and stuff the only spare I have is a a8n fatality loool

Kingpin's FX did 4ghz 1M with the IHS on so you're not quite there yet, you would need LN2 to catch him.

OPP cut his FX open allowing him 4ghz 32M and 4.2ghz valid

Get some LN2 and have a crack at KP's WR, you should be able to get mighty close..

Oh yeh, run 1 stick of 256mb ram

What OS are you running? 2003 will probably take you furthest (and is quickest for pi

)

PS: any ideas at what temp you hit the coldbug?

Bennah · 3 Apr 2006 at 18:06

Just about to say only run a single stick of 256MB. Works best

Great stuff as Ive said before.

Shame that the FX is your 24/7 cpu too. Not like k|ngp|n and others who have totally different setup's for thier 24/7 rigs.

Do take the speader off though for some validating action

OPP most probably, used k|ngp|n's FX57 under his PC ICE cascade for a longer time than k|ngp|n has it under LN2, so therefore giving it a little 'OPP burn in'

Did it a world of good though.

Good luck going for more matey, do us UK overclockers even more proud than you already have
