Hi guys,

I am very new to overclocking but would like to bump my CPU up a bit to save time encoding video.

I have an AMD X2 4400+, Ninja HSF, Dfi CFX3200 Mobo, 2gb (2x1gb) Corsair XMS3500 Pro XL

I had a go playing with the bios lastnight but whatever I tried the pc refused to boot :mad:

It would be ideal if I could match FX speeds but not sure if i'm asking a bit much?

I have searched numerous forums including this one and also read some guides but nothing seems to match the settings I have in the bios. Most guides are too old now to be of any use

Some pointers would be brilliant please :-)
 
ok done a bit of overclocking now.

Managed to get 222FSB, 166mhz, 4x HT to boot into windows and stress tested ok.

These are my settings. Can you please tell me where to go next for extra speed :-) Thanks!

I'm happy at FX60 speeds but would like a little bit more :-)

My system sounded like it was on the verge at booting at FSB250 so I'm going to put the volts to 1.525 tonight and see if it's ok.

Doubt I'll hit FX62 speeds :-(
 
This is a strange one

My mate has a proper FX60 and gets 28secs on superPi. When I try it with my 2.64mhz overclock I get 33secs. Surely mine should be faster?
 
as mentioned before, a 2.6ghz FX60 can do superpi in 28secs so that's the figure to aim for (or beat).

at clocks of 2.7ghz we are now seeing superpi at 31secs

how come every one is having to put 1.5v to get that clock. i use 1.45v and get over 2.7 is it because i have watercooling

Not sure, but I don't think it is to be honest. I have the ninja HSF with an akasa 120mm fan. The fan isn't spinning flat out and my temps look really good. I had to put my volts to 1.5 to get it to boot. I think it's the cpu itself rather than how hot it's getting.
