***The Official Conroe Overclocking Thread ***

doing a bit of clockin with my e6600. asus p5w DH, Geil 6400

managed so fat to hit 3.3ghz @ 1.4v [about 1.38 actual]

primes fine, will try more later

Exactly same as me, except i have Gigabyte 965-DS4 and Corsair Twin X 6400

 

[nicRob]

Priming at 3ghz with 1.20/1.216v here atm (trying to get temps lower, so seeing how low I can go on voltage, then will up the OC again etc)

 

[nickinmarbella]

system at 50ºc

hi, wondering if anyone else has a problem with a hot system,, mine is at 50º is this ok?

i have the e6600 and p5w dh

thx

 

[easyrider]

is this at full load?

if so thats fine

No m8, that idel, but doesnt change much full load.. 52, 53 max
other temps are perfect
34º cpu it's a fantastic overclocker.,..., week 28
just worried i might fry the mo bo..

Bois Screenies

Does anyone have any bois setting screenies for the 1401 bois; i just changed it back for the 1407 and can't seem to get my ram to 1:1. it automatically goes to 4:3, any one got any ideas??
Might have to change back to 1407

I've hit 3.9Ghz

12 X 325FSB

It boots up ok but crashes on the windows loading screen.

I'm using 1.45v on Air.

However, i think the corsair XMSII 8500 isn't up to the job so ill be looking to change this shortly.

I am going to be ordering the Titain next week to see if i can crack the 4Ghz mark.

Oh i am running a X6800 on a Asus P5EDG2 which i have found to more stable then my old P5 DH board.

why wouldn't 8500 ram be up to a 325 fsb? you must be running a 4:6 multiplier or something?

Either that or its seriously rubbish ram?

Not sure wether the G skill is holding me back with this mobo.DS3 BTW

The ram is capable of 1ghz with ease but I have to run 3.6ghz 4:5 1ghz ram to achieve this.

Aparantly the bods at gigabyte are working on a bios that allows higher FSB with the micron 9 chips or something.

If I try to boot 1:1 anything above 430 FSB I have no joy.

Wish I had some GEIL that I could try with this mobo!

maybe its that es chip thats pushing its limit, didnt you get similar cpu clocks with the p5w dh?

hmm cpuz 1.37s showing 10x multiplier and 1.125v, ....something wrong there

damn todays friday the 13th

edit:

have you got a clearer shot of cpu-z? and you should be using the mod 1.5 of pi

Voltage is displayed wrong on CPU-z and multi's running 9 there not 10

@easyrider, assuming you've tried dropping the multi to see if you can push the FSB any further? As maddness said it could be that the CPU's maxing.
If you've got chipset voltage options, might be worth jacking them up a little if you havent already too...

Try running super pi 1.5 xs mod...so we can see exact time your getting thanks.

Will do!

from that cpu-z shot it looks like 10, since when has 9 got 2 digits

 

[easyrider]

It says x 9.0

 

[maddness]

It says x 9.0

doh, i dint think of that!

hi, i have been in contact with G Skill, it seems that your right about it holding back, i was under the impression the this mem could do a 1500 fsb, "is impossible"
i got it to 999fsb in a 2:3 the chip @ 333. this was very stable....
i have the mem at 2.4 volts... high but is seems ok...

at the moment running a very stable prime and all other stress tests...
3445 x 9 = 382
mem
4.4.4.8.12. frequency 288.... 4:3

i ordered a ds3 today, will let you know what happens...

The DS3 has issues with the d9 micron modules reaching over 450FSB

I can run 3.6ghz 4:5 1ghz without issue.
