Hey guys,

Got my AMD Phenom II 955BE today and my Arctic Cooling Freezer Pro 7 Rev.2

Set it all up in my Asus M4A78 with some 4GB 2x2GB Kingston HyperX DDR2 6400C4 800Mhz RAM.

I've left it at home running AMD Overdrive On Novice Settings.

Was this my best plan ?

I'm not sure if it will give me my best possible clock so i'm thinking of Overclocking in the BIOS.

Any advice or info i should know ?

Thanks
 
oh yeah i only just brought it too :(

came recommended from someone on here.

What is another good cooler i've heard of some allowing two fans in push/pull which works quite well can't remember the name tho sadly.

My case at the moment isn't good either but on payday i'm buying a nice Antec 300 and some good fans to help bring the temps down a bit too which will be good ( i hope)
 
I looked but didn't really find nothing in BIOS,

I'm at 3.8Ghz now, Ran prime95 for half an hour last night and will do again now.

215Mhz x 18 @ 59 Under 100% load Vcore @ 1.5V

Havn't changed the north or southbridge but if i did could i increase the Mhz or Multi a bit more you think ?
 
I would but my motherboard BIOS is in another language i swear.

Seems like nothing is labelled simple.

Have to check the manual later tonight.

But i'm pretty chuffed with an increase of 700Mhz for my first time.

That's an increase of what about 25% ?
 
Well i've seen how to change the NB Volts so will try that tonight southbridge tho i'm not sure :(

If i raise the NB up Will i be able to up the Mhz a bit more ?

Last night i left it at 217 x 18 @ 1.55v and it crashed after an hour in Prime95

Really wanna hit 3.9Ghz if i can lol
