Clocking Advice/Tips Needed

Kept my settings as above but increased the FSB to 356 for 3.2Mhz and its stable with OCCT. Then increased to 367 for 3.3Mhz and thats stable.

So now Im going for 378 for 3.4Mhz and see if thats stable.
 
Just in terms of heat production - if you don't need 1.45V when 1.4V would do, then why use it all? Also - have to seen the other thread about overclocking and cooling P5K's? The guy on that thread was using 1.57V to get his 3.6GHz clock stable:eek:
 
God thats way to high.

So far its stable at what ever the settings I have now (cant remember) so do you advise upping the FSB a notch at a time till I max out then dropping back and then upping the voltage?

Regards.
 
If you can find the thread, it had a link to another P5K overclocking thread that you might find useful, but otherwise, yes, upping the FSB 4 or 8 at a time seems a good idea.

Temps are 39 Deg or less idle and 50 -55 under load.

At 3600 the core voltage was 1.5 and at 3200 its 1.35ish.
 
It may better to settle for the 3.2 over clock as you are under air. which is very decent over clock by the way. You would require voltages above 1.5 to achieve stability for 3.6

just leave prime to run at 3.2 overnight to confirm system stability

True.

Whats the best way to setup prime?

Before running prime you will need to open core temp to monitor temps whilst running prime.

Before running prime you will need to open and:

under advanced tick off "Round of Checking"
select small FFTS
Select CPU test not blend (you can run blend test later if you pass 8hrs stable on CPU torture test)
And run

Ok thanks.

Started Prime and I see something happening and the processor are running 100%. How long does this go on for?
