A64 3000+ overclock

[FUNTY]

Just finished building my new rig and its working wonders.

I have a nice o/c on it @ present ( see below ), prime stable for 12 hours, no problems at all. I am just wondering how much further can push it on air?

Update

I did write the stepping down but lost the paper it was on - sorry. When i Fancy pulling it apart again i will take a look.

I did also run memtest for over 12 hours while i was away - all is fine.

I have been running the system now for a few days testing lots of apps and games and had no problems at all, system runs like a dream. Not bad for a £61 chip.

Anyway last night I pushed the chipset up to 1.5v raised clock to 300 and managed to get 2.7ghz, ran all the tests overnight and still no problems. I cannot believe how far this chip o/c's. Although as soon as i finished all the tests this morning i ran EQ2 and the PC crashed after 30 mins. (Dont know if its related to o/c).

Anyway im happy with it @ 2.5 on standard voltage and its running pretty cool even under load so will keep it at that.
