Only MAJOR overclockers need apply - survey!

Do you have what it takes to be amongst the elite @ OCUK?

Looking for the highest overclocks possible. It doesn't have to be stable! only enough for screenies!

As an example i would like only XPm's OVER 2.5GHZ
I need proof as in CPUZ screenies and details! ie fsb - volts, type of cooling.MB, ram, steppings if possible!

DO YOU HAVE THE POWER???

no accountability for singed eyebrows will be accepted! Enter at your own risk!!!

Host Screenies on your own web space or a site such as uploadit.org

made a 56k friendly version of the table

Split the table into 2 pages due to it's MAJOR size!

My proof:

Yip, I'm looking for the madest and badest that we at OCUK can provide!

I'm only 13fsb away from 3ghz (13 x 231) currently at 13 x 218. 6 fans on my Thermochill 120.3 should help, and the NB waterblock that arrives next week!

If everyone can give me cpuz screenies and tell me what processor you are running, it will be easier for me to update the chart.

I won't accept windows system information as it doesn't tell you the exact speed in mhz. 1st, 2nd and third could be decided by a small margin.

Thanks

Edit: 1.875 v

No problem, I'll take your word for it and replace yoyr score with an even higher one when you get your PSU back!

I could brake the table down into more detail but this way keeps things easier for me to update, which I will try my best to do.

AMDeaD (nice nickname btw) welcome to the forums

Can you post some more details like what processor your running and mobo, ram timings, cooling etc...

I bet you can get faster than that anyway

Cheers

I think I should add a table listing all the dead gear due to overclocking too far! :eek:

weescott · 26 Jul 2004 at 15:49

OK Folks, there are some great overclocks here! But where should I draw the line between a MAJOR overclock and a good overclock?

Bearing in mind that I don't want to set unrealistic goals for those on air!

I have already said XP-m's over 2.5 GHz, but what about the P4's?
Is a 3.9 overclock on a 3.4 MAJOR or just good?

Give me your thoughts.

Majority vote wins!

How did I miss that one :confused:

Nice overclock m8!

Updated!

Just a thought

Oh no! that means I have to use my head twice in one day!

Good idea though!

weescott · 26 Jul 2004 at 20:25

I have updated the chart to show an overclock percentage.

It makes for some interesting reading!

weescott · 26 Jul 2004 at 21:34

Aww shucks!

weescott · 27 Jul 2004 at 11:10

Yes there are some nice clocks in there but I'm sure you can get higher!

weescott · 27 Jul 2004 at 13:36

Stowenrat.

What temps are you hitting with those volts on air? :eek:

weescott · 27 Jul 2004 at 14:03

You are saying that it's stable but is it Seti stable or even Prime Stable?

weescott · 27 Jul 2004 at 15:12

Good answer!

I have been meaning to do that for a while actually!

Will it improve my overclock?

Not meaning to sound pedantic but to me that says that it's not stable!

I'll sort the volts though!
