Hey im looking to sell one of my old comp's so i can go and buy an x-2 and 7900gtx from ocuk. Bought all my bits for this one at the end of 2004, beggining of 2005. Im looking to sell it overclocked but i am wondering if theres any further improvements i can make to my oc's.

Spec:

athlon 64 winchester 3200
1gb 2 x 512 dual channel geil ultra platinum pc4000 mem
Leadtek GeForce 6800 256MB DDR TV-Out/DVI (PCI-Express) +Arctic Cooling Rev.4 nVidia 5 (6800 Series) VGA Silencer modded on :\
OCZ PowerStream 520w ATX2.2 Power Supply
Zalman CNPS7000B-Cu Ultra-Quiet CPU Cooler
Coolermaster Cavalier 3 +2 120mm fans 1 xintake, 1 x out-take.

Ive had it overclocked at these settings for over a year now, no problem always at good temps, just wondering can i get anything more out of them before i sell or are these fine for the tech?

Any info appreciated.

what mobo do you have?

my winnie 3000 is at 2.57ghz, 285 X 9.

you sure you cant bump up the HTT anymore?

try upping cpu voltage to 1.55v (what mine is)

if your RAM cant handle it try puttin on a divider
 
managed to get it to 285/9 with 166 divider,when i went from 285 to 287 system wouldnt boot, so it switch it off for 5 min still didnt boot, took the jumper off the cmos to reset it and it boots at default settings no prob.


problem is....i dropped the cmos jumper cap and cant find it anywhere lol, i found an old mobo but the jumper caps on them have metal inside.......guess it wouldnt be wise to use that as i cant remember if the cmos cap was all plastic or not.

Ok so even at low oc'd spec's this pc cant run the stress test from p95, no idea why and super pi gives some sort of error too......over 1m test. This is with HT x3, divider 133, +0.2v to the memory and as u can see 1.55vcore.......anything above 285 htt just seems to crash and stuff, does this seem right, ive gone through loads of combinations and i thought it could reach 2.6 and be stable, bit dissapointed ! ;\
 
it's possible your motherboard doesn't like HTT's over 285. Put the multiplier up to 10x, put the memory on a divider and put HTT on 260.

See how that goes? My apologies if this has already been tried.
