Overclocking 3700+SD on Asrock Dual Sata II

[k3v]

Max i got out with my AIR cooling was 3014MHz .


Cheers


P.S. But avarege is 2.7-2.8GHz i would say as well.

did you have this mobo too?
what settings did you use?
was it running red hot

Well, I've got the artic 64 Pro, a 3700+ and a Asus A8n sli se sat on my desk, so I'll be plugging it all together to see what I can get.

Wish me luck!

Good luck

I wouldnt be suprised if you got 2.8 from that chip

hey im clockin my 3700 and i cant get past 2.7. what you gettin to?? and what volts you passing through maybe we can assist each other

edit, what divider you on now to?? im a 333 and i think its a bit high memory at 245. 266 sounds better? what you on??

 

[TaKeN]

I use a HTT Of 255...


RAM @ DDR 333...


Sounds like you havnt actually lowered the ram speed if its @ 245

As for volts, i use 1.6 for full game stability

that chip should deffo get 2.8, i got 2.8ghz at 1.45v 100% stable, i ran prime 95 for 12 hours, also idle temps are inbetween 29-32 and load temps inbetween 39-49 depending how how the weather is.

i got up to 3ghz, stable enough at 2.9ghz but 2.8ghz to be safe, and i am using stock cooling!my htt is at 254mhz, and ram running at 420mhz.

htt also at 3x

Well mine is in the Sonata II case with an Artic Cooler freezer 64 pro HS, temps at idle around 32, at load 41 max. I have installed the optional 120mm case fan in front of the HDD bays though which might be helping. I am sure my chip could go futher if I had more volts from the mobo.

Cheers - have an amber at the front too - might give this a shot then - means i can keep my agp card until i stump up for a pci-e card!

1st, i was using this clock only for benching .

I'm using DFI Expert mobo.

Settings was like this:
HTT 274 - x11 - divider 166 - 1.68V in BIOS/1.66V in Windows + i added 0.1V for chipset (NB) as well.

Cant remember temps, but was OK .

Well, I took the afternoon off work to tinker.

Not got a bad result. I've not fully tested it yet, but it does the super-pi 1M ok, and has been doing the 32M for about 20 minutes without fault. Also played CS:S on it for about 2 hours.

If I go any higher HTT then I fail the super-pi 1M.

I don't think the voltage is reading correctly because they seem too high!

thanks for the reply. I think there is a bit More to be squezed from mine

Ordered me a 3700 plus the ASRock Dual m/b and freezer pro to boot - roll on the weekend!

what settings you got for that mine keeps falling over at any thing over 240 HTT

Hi mate,

Mine ended up failing prime 95. So I've clocked it back to HTT 250. It's been running the "Hi temp cpu load" prime 95 for a couple of hours.

I left all the voltages at stock, set the DDR to 333 devider, and just uped the FSB. Nothing more complicated than that I'm affraid.
