Hello, i have a problem with over clocking my E2180. I am running it on a P35C-DS3R and cooling it with an Arctic Freezer 7.

It boots at stock, on stock voltage to give me 2.0ghz. I gained some new ram this morning from Ocuk (geil 6400 ull 2gig). My old ram was Corsair Value Select :P 4gig 4300. I can get this baby to 3ghz (thanks to Will Hub :P) at 8 X 380 at 1.45V. 33oc (i) / 65oc(l). Which in my opinion seems a bit high as other people get 3ghz at stock voltage! Ive also spoken to Ikettles about this problem giving me various things to test out. I found out that my computer will not boot at 7X300 (2.1ghz) at 1.45v :/.

Using my old ram i could achieve 2.6ghz with 10 X 265 with my Timings tight Cas4. Using this new ram i have to use cas5 when attempting to hit 3ghz. I have read the guide about upping the MCH and FSB up by +0.1V or .01V what ever it is. My ram ratio is set at 1.1.

Any ideas how i can get to at least 3ghz if not beyond on a lower voltage than 1.4V?


Thanks,
Paul.
 
Tbh, i dont see any difference, except that your ram may run slower/faster than it would normally, as the FSB to Memory ratio is different. So no, not that i can tell anyway!
 
I will upload some pics A.S.A.P, im just having technical difficulties on getting my pc "working"

Is 65oC underload alright for a 3ghz Overclock? at 1.45V

Ok, ive now finally got my processor to over clock. I'm at 3.0ghz on 8 X 375fsb at about 1.4V and around 60oC Under load. Is it fine running at 60oC? Ive stressed it for 3hours now (3:17pm) and i will continue to stress it.
