*** Official AMD Phenom II X6 1055T & 1090T Overclocking Thread ***

Funnily enough on the 95W part it's 71c :p

but i'm guessing that for stock has its lower voltage. but when u overclock/overvoltage i guess the max safe temp drops slight.

i guess same goes for the 125w version.

also if i undervoltage my 1090t to 1.15-1.175v i guess the max safe temp would be around 68-70c


maybe i'm totally wrong but this is the way i see it.

bit of advice for anyone with same motherboard as me

STAY CLEAR OF THE 1605 BIOS found on other forums (yes its a beta)

Can't get my system 4ghz stable with any sort of voltage increase :mad:

By that logic and overclocked 1090T will have its max safe temperatures under its rated 62c also.
 
When you're pushing a £225 CPU to the limit of what it can do, it makes logical sense to keep it as cool as you can, anything over 55C is pushing it IMO on a Phenom II.
 
Hi all,

I'm new here and have been reading this thread with some interest (well, to be honest i skipped the middle 20 pages or so).
I was originally looking to get something like this bundle:
http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=BU-039-OB&groupid=43&catid=339&subcat=1803
But then spotted this one
http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=BU-038-OB&groupid=43&catid=339&subcat=1802
Is the AMD bundle really worth the extra £51?
What sort of power supply would I need to run these? Could the i3 bundle be run on a smaller/cheaper PSU? (I plan to run it with a 4870x2, 1 or 2 HDDs, an optical drive and a water-cooling pump)
While I expect to do a bit of everything I'm not going to kid myself that this will be anything other than a gaming rig, with a bit of video encoding on the side.
Which of these is likely to see the biggest benefit from water-cooling? (It's going to be my first attempt at water-cooling).

You're also probably wondering why I'm going for an overclocked bundle and not doing it myself. Well in short I've not had a lot of luck with overclocking this E6850 (on an ABit Fatal1ty FP-IN9 SLI) and didn't want to water-cool a PC running at stock speeds.

Thanks for any advice.

1606 BIOS is now officially available for the Asus M4A89GTDPro/USb3 - works a treat nice and stable

PS - Altered my overclock to 250x16 which allows me to have 2500Mhz on CPU-NB - yaay :D
 
Latest BIOS for M4A785TD-M EVO is also good. Can finally stop using AMD Overdrive for my OC. :D
 
What you should do is see if you can find someone selling one 2nd hand to save yourself some cash.

Yeah... :o



:D
 
since i've added another 200mm top fan to my case my cpu temp is now ~43c under prime load.

before it was ~50c under prime load.

4ghz 1.425v, 2.6ghz 1.25v NB

I can get prime stable with the following settings on my 1090T (4GHz @ 1.425 V, CPU-NB @ 2300 - 1.175V, MEM @ 1333 - 1.65V) but when I try upping the CPU-NB to 2600 Linx 0.6.4 fails. Would that normally indicate that I need more volts on the NB?

If so I have 2 NB voltage settings in my BIOS and want to double check that I am adjusting the right one. Is the correct one the one I have put a red box around?

Also what does TEMPIN2 monitor? My gets quite high but my TEMP1 only goes up to 53 during Linx.

yes you'll need CPU-NB voltage for 2600mhz, try 1.225v that should make it stable.

TEMPIN2 monitors the motherboard NB chipset, or the case temp..

heres mine.


 
Got this chip yesterday with a CH IV Formula. Not done too much oc'ing yet just upped the fsb a little so I'm running about 3.8ghz at the moment.

Question is I'm idling at 12C. I'm using a Noctua NH-D14 and I know it's good but is it that good?!
