Easy's C2D 6400 Clock
- Thread starter easyrider

im not dissing it but i wouldnt be happy with a load temp approaching 70ceasyrider said:lol @ C64
Those temps are fine and well within the chips limits.
The system is 100% stable.
So much so that this has been my 24/7 overclock for months.
Theres always one
on water cooling and would lose sleep over it

Mines a pants clocker:
E6600 - 432x8, 3.456ghz @ 1.525V BIOS - 1.505-1.51V actual, 45C Folding SMP load and 55C Orthos load.
I want it to die so I can buy another one lol

very nice clock. I might have to take that off your hands when you're ready to switch 
What is your water setup?

I'm using the Swiftech Apex Kit with Apogee block. May get a better block though.
All standard stuff from the KIT.
Memory is my G Skill HZ and the mobo is a gigabyte DQ6 I bought off MM for 45 quid.
The chip was 125 quid at auction lol,Bought as a fill in chip.Before coming to me it was ran at stock.

I've only just found this - you should have sent me an e-mail!
I love Webbo's response - you picked an easy test to pass! Blend does pick out flaws in the RAM a bit more, but this is a CPU overclock and i think you've certainly proved the CPU overclock is stable.
I'm happy that you've proved it. It's a very good overclock for an E6400.
Have you put it in the Core2Duo overclocking thread though?

Took me 4 different E6600's to find a good'un
Yet the very first E6400 I had from OCUk could do 3.6/3.7 no problem lol.

Hehe, I only said that coz he gave me grief when I said my e6600 was stable at 4ghz. He said it aint stable until its been done with blend for 12hrs so I though it only fair to remind him of this

Finally got around to properly orthosing it, even forgot i had the machine stressing.
Currently at 1.325v, this particular DS3 is kinda crappy over 378MHz, will carry higher when i have another good spec 775 board in house.

well, if we're posting verified clocks here now, mines not nearly as good as Easyrider's but, it'll do;
I think if you look at the difference in the load temperatures you can see how much extra heat is being disappated by the extra 400MHz he's got out of his CPU (we have almost identical cooling systems). It's the difference between a good overclock (mine) and and an extreme overclock (Easyrider's).

What? no 4GHz 'with ease'
Only joking, on a more technical note how are you chaps getting on with your memory bandwidth when running above 400MHz-FSB?
My friend has his e6400 at 3.2GHz (400MHz-FSB) but when he sets it the FSB higher he loses a heap of memory bandwidth (400MB/s Unbuffered).
The old northbridge memory divider/strap kicking in I assume.
SO if you please, can we see some memory results from these nice overclocks? run some at 400MHz-FSB and compare to say 425/450/475MHz.
btw: are you guys booting at 400Mhz-FSB and then clockgen'ing up or?

Looks like hes suffering from the strap problem there. I'd think WJA is getting about equal or a little more than 400Mhz 1066MHz bandwidth there as i've found around 425-430 brings it back up to performance.

What is this strap problem?
because my system is stable at 450fsb at 1.425 vcore....but I can't seem to get a stable clock over 450 at all..even with 1.55 vcore? I put my northbridge voltage to 1.65 as well to no avail.
Its not my memory as I set it to 1:1 and know it can do far over 1000mhz.
