6300 + DS4 At 3.5 Gigs

easyrider, that proves nothing, so you left your computer priming for 13 hours. Mine is still priming now for 6 hours, but unlike you, I'm using it to download, burning dvd's, talking on voip and chatting on irc. Surely this is a better test than leaving a computer on overnight running 2 primes?

So let me re-cap

two primes
downloading
burning dvd's
chatting on irc
using my voip phone

Look at my post earlier and see all the stuff thats running.

cool

I was asleep lol

What is wrong with everyone?

All I wanted was a screen shot of dual prime.It measures stabilty.Bully for you if you have things running I do it when I'm asleep overnight.

I just wanted a screenie of the 500 fsb dual priming rather than 15s super PI shots.

I'm not out to try and proove anything :confused:
 
I must admit, my ram sucks, I can boot @ 480 but it's so unstable, and I'm sure it's not the chip/mb.

Easyrider, I'm not getting at you mate, this is one thing I like about these forums, you can argue with someone, and that same person would be helping you in another thread.
 
Servo, I think you have done very well with that ram. Its much cheaper than the ram that others are using, yet you have taken it to 460fsb. I trust that at 460fsb it is stable, right?

Perhaps a good combo might be the e6600 or e6400 and the geil value ram that you are using.

In fact, from what Ive seen so far, the conroe cpus seem to max out at around the 3.7ghz mark. And assuming that we can get 460fsb out of the geil value ram, the e6400 seems to be the sweetspot: 8x460=3.68ghz.
 
sunama, I guess your right about the ram, but you know what we overclockers are like, Just like the "Ladies" we want more.

460fsb is very stable, I'm still priming now, which is nearly 7 hours, I will stop when I hit the 8 hours. Don't get me wrong, I'm delighted to have a chip that has clocked so high. Last week I bought a amd 4200 x2, and I now wish I had waited and bought 2 of these e6300.
 
Easyrider:

Why are you so keen to see my DS4 and 6300 prime stable at 500 FSB for xx hours?

I believe a 32M run of Pi takes more than a few seconds, even for my 6300. LOL
 
ok news is i think i found the sweet spot of this cpu on this mobo, 3.2 Ghz

Its because i can super PI 1 MB @ 4.1ghz with my conroe but I cant get it stable at this speed in prime.

I CAN GET IT STABLE IN PRIME CURRENTLY@ 3.8ghz

I don't believe you are prime stable @ 3.5ghz in prime.

So therfore your clock can pass super PI but has you have shown not prime stable.There is no evidence of this in this thread.

PI calculations mean nothing.

Just put your money where your mouth is and show me a 12hr prime @ 3.5ghz

I will be the first to congratulate on it.


good grief!

Gotta admit I'm with Easyrider on this one.

Game stable is a long way from being prime stable. SuperPI is the weakest of all stability tests. How long you want to prime is up to you and how much YOU deem it worth. I cannot understand anyone who puts a lot of time and effort into getting the best setup for a good overclock and then dosn't think its worth finding out if its truly stable. Stability tests and how long they should run for will always be hotly debated but one thing is for certain the longer you prime, the better chances of stability you have. If you're happy with a 2 hr prime or 32m SP and YOU think its stable then thats great, good luck to ya and all that. Personally, I wouldn't want my data to get corrupted because I couldn't find the time to prime my machine for stability. An 8hr test(dual) is a minimum I would run tbh before declaring it stable.

Having said that there are some truly great results here.

just a note for prime users, if you change the time / date when prime is running, it can give hours days prime stable illusion :rolleyes:,

i dont trust it :p

But they are easily found out because of the slide bar ;)

So I need to prove something to you, ROFLMAO. Why would I want to do that :confused: There is more chance of Hell freezing over :D

Like I said in my previous thread, Paypal thing remember??

Its Stable to my standards and I can assure you if it wasn't I would not be using it as a development machine for writing software. Like I said I Have Been Doing This a LONG TIME.

If you not happy ignore my thread and move on. Simple!

Its not crashed so far in over a week of development work 8 hours per day, few hours gaming per night and the odd benchmark. That would suggest that it's pretty stable to me. :)

I have been in the Overclocking game since the 33MHZ 486 came out. Pretty much played with every processor/mobo combo. I'm Surrounded by hardware at work. I can buy pretty much any hardware I want within reason to have a play with. So I think I have a good idea on what to do by now. :)

No,

You need to prove it to yourself and to others in this thread that want to see valid stability test's not PI runs.

Stable to yours standards? LMAO :D

Not stable to me and not stable to others who test for stabilty like so many other overclockers with sessions of dual prime.

Many agree with me and avoiding the issue makes me believe that you have tried prime and it bombed so therefore cannot post results :p

Then I would have thought that you would have dual primed your machine to test for stability! ;)

Whos the many ?

OK do something for me. Do a 32M Pi run at 4.1. You said 1M is easy so 32M should be easy too. Thats what I and others were doing

the quest for finding the sweet spot and verify its stability there has ended. For the next 8 months or so this fella will serve me right :D

Nice m8. I won't argue with that :)

Still waiting for a 32M 4.1 Easyrider Pi Run :p
