successful overclock?

[frostyste]

hi, and merry xmas.

so, i overclocked my amd sempron 140 processor, i did a 20min test in OCCT results were complete without errors, but cpu usage so at 100% almost all the time, is this normal.

the processor runs at 2700mhz, i got it overclocked to 3250mhz.

a 20% increase, im going for 4000mhz, i really dont care if i kill the processor
i wanna see just how far you can push these little processors.

Yes, 100% cpu load is the point of the test, to stress it to the max. However 20min is really not enough to say its stable, though its not horribly unstable. I'd do about 50 runs. What cooler? 4Ghz would be an accomplishment if i'm reading the right places.

hey, im running a freezer pro 7 rev.2

yes i agree need to test for much longer, i got it upto 3.5ghz now with 40mins of testing will do more tomorrow, the result is in the sig.
