***official amd 83x0 overclocking thread***

im sure guys already know this but i added a 40mm fan over mobo vrm and dropped 5 degrees off socket temps maxed out at 62 where as before it was 67 on prime room to add a second may buy one later to see if i gain anymore :D
 
CPU LLC: ultra high
CPU Current : 130%
CPU/NB: extreme
CPU/NB Current: 130%

Voltage Frequency Auto
CPU Power phase control: Extreme

I think I may have spoke too soon though, as the cpu is throttling after about half an hour of prime blend :(

More tweaking needed.

I have 2 spectre pros in pull with the stock fans on the h100. I'm considering sending them back though and getting some NF-F12s or corsair SP120s for better performance.

morning guys i have bitfenix case dude and there fans are rubbish look good but performance is dreadful they dont push out anywhere near what they say tbh defo change them i changed all my spectre pros for typhoons
 
your really progressing well Orch good going m8

im gonna try my 5 ghz overclock now happy with 4.8 think i got them most i can so gonna write down settings and go for 5 ghz i added push pull to my 240 rad this morning so see how that helps temps on core also added a second 40mm fan over vrm so fingers crossed i hit 5 without to much heat will post progress soon
 
May try and knock the vcore down a tad, but happy at the overclock :)

good going your cinebench dont look right though mine is higher at 4.8 its because you only have multiplier overclock you will get better score with fsb and multi overclock not putting you down at all thats good to hit 5ghz m8 :D

just saying it will improve score
 
Ah, to get it changed in the list maybe a moderator has to do it.

I think so it asked for a reason which I added maybe they have to check it first any mods around who can help?

Watch this space I guess!

Im itching to get oc to 5ghz now grrr


As we were talking last night biut cross fire ect due to me not getting any better results with sleeping dogs benchmark I ran

I found 2 7970 his reference design so I can water cool my question is are the HIS cards any good? Seller said there good overclockers are the voltage unlocked?
 
You're talking about 3x7970s? That's a huge amount of graphics power unless you're running on three screens or something.

no selling my current 7970 and getting a new one but i see 2 forsale and there pretty cheap no not running 3 bud lol i is new sabertooth as good as v formula?

i like my current crad maxes everything but i want whole system under water and this card cant plus i would like to clock card or at least have option to where as this card is voltage locked wont go over 1050 core 1550 mem

i have some spare cash so gonna overhaul system mobo,gpu and water on gpu

also new mobo will help with 5 plus as vrm on this board gets hot
 
And use some punctuation!
lol, i type way to fast.

hopefully the will perform good, i also want to put board under water too. but amd dont see to have water blocks like intel boards do.

i would water cool this one but i cant find blocks for it, i doubt they do them
 
Gah! I failed the BF3 test tonight, BSOD about 4 times in total, 3 of them at the same point in Exfiltration on Co-Op with a mate, so annoying. Dropped clocks back to 4.7, then 4.6, then 4.5, notched the GPU clocks down a bit, temps were all fine then realised . . RAM.

Have taken RAM back to 1300Mhz and no BSOD since but only played for half hour or so and run out of hours so will have to test again with RAM lowered and clocks back up to be sure that's the case though. God knows why this RAM is letting me down so much, I'm only running at the speed it was supposedly meant to be!

add me up i have no m8's who play bf3 rubberducky86

before you laugh i have a slight obsession with hitman lol
