Got to that magic number 4GHZ! :)

janesssssy · 9 Aug 2006 at 18:05

And still going. Although I need to test it further it did pass dual prime for another 9 hours.

4Ghz for me has been the holy grail in overclocking since way back when i have my 3.2Ghz northwood and an MSI neo board. Could just about suicide screenshot it at 4Ghz then reboot. Am a bit happy now that ive got 4Ghz stable. (I hope)

I dont think i will get to much more out of it due to the memory being used. only 667 DDR2. thats the speed its running at so anymore is dependent on the "major on 3rd" vlaue memory I have.

Hey at least I know what this board can do with a P805D chip. cant wait till i get conroe in it in a couple of months. :cool:

Edit - i still have a thread open in the CPU forum however i didnt want to post in that as its sort of a seperate issue.

OWNED 3999.99mhz muhahahaha.

Jokes aside, if you can get 4gig stable that is very nice.

Big Congrats m8. Very Well Done, Wicked!

Justintime · 9 Aug 2006 at 22:15

Up that fsb 1mhz more or turn on that spread spectrum

Sumanji · 10 Aug 2006 at 02:55

Nice... now sell it and get a Conroe

janesssssy · 10 Aug 2006 at 13:08

why sell it, I work for a computer / PC component reseller

I will post back later with the prime to see if it passed or not. fingers crossed.

Sumanji · 10 Aug 2006 at 14:07

Oh I was gonna ask actually, what cooling are you using and what sort of temps are you getting? Was gonna set my mate up with a D805 in his new rig if he can't quite stretch to an E6300, but I'm a bit worried about the heat...

Cheers,

You're SuperPi score is only 2 seconds quicker then my venice, lol....

sablabra · 10 Aug 2006 at 14:38

I first thought this was conroe or something, but then I realised it was a 805

but this was free and a conroe will fit in this system leaving the venice for dust

Water cooling. Max temp is about 38c

Very nice overclock m8 super pi seems a tad slow as my athlon will do it in 30 secs, i know that super pi is single threaded and the second core is not used but still

scousegit · 10 Aug 2006 at 21:57

i love my conroe, twice as quick as that chip nearly, at 1ghz slower

silversurfer · 10 Aug 2006 at 22:19

So what motherboard and cooling is this.

Overclocking one of these might be a good test for kentsfield since they'll use double the power of conroe I believe.

The pi is about 2 seconds faster then I got with my old athlon

Of course with dual core its a lot nicer

janesssssy · 10 Aug 2006 at 22:35

Its on very good water, PA120.3 rad etc etc

will post prime bench mark tomorrow morning now, lol my wife turned it off at 16 hours ish as soon as i got back. :eek:

so untill then.

spec is:

805D
Gigabyte DS3
2Gb DDR2667 ram
rapter
- Just practise for my conroe that im getting from work in sept time ish.

EDIT - Stable!
