Just for a laugh. If I dare go over 1.55v this is ok for a few benches. But I doubt it's prime so don't ask.

Get it primed, :D

I am interested in trying a 6700 with the 10x multi to see if one of those puppies can do 4ghz 24/7

I've got 3.6Ghz so far on 1.4v vCore (1.38v actual), with nothing else changed on an E6700. This is on air cooling with an Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro, using the stock thermal compound.

The above has been dual Prime stable for 8 hours so far.

I think 4Ghz 24/7 will be difficult on air to be honest.

Nice clock.

I'm on water mate :)

Yeah saw that but I need some of the jumperfree settings details like what are the best ram freqs to use and what about voltages?

Thanks!

Mine need around 1.475v for 3.6ghz.

Although I run 3.8ghz @ 1.55v with water.

What ram are you using?

I've made a Conroe overclocking database thread that doesn't seem to be doing very well, thought it would be quite nice to document all these overclocks in one place. Link here

Do the higher clocks first.

Makes it easier for people to analyse data.

what clocks need what vcore etc..

very sadly got ny 6400 and ds3 up to 3.44ghz.. 430fsb..
i had to put my vcore up to 1.5. i think i am limited due to overheating. my artic cooling freezer pro doesn;t seem to be able to cope with thea heat increase.

may have to get a zlaman circular cpu cooler

with 1.5v what are your temps under load?

using everest and running dual prime snall fft its at 66-68 atm, i will try to get it stable using less volts...

but i was targeting for 3.6 :(
Click to expand...

Yeah at 3.6ghz I was getting 69-70c with a zalman 9500.

With that much vcore you are really looking at water for 24/7 imo.

My temps are now

29c idle
55-58c fulload @ 3.8ghz 1.55 vcore

well i tried to redo my whole oc again..

i got it stable at 400 with a 1.4 adn the rest on auto..
raising it to 415, i need to rasie it to around 1.43 and i get a problem

its running dual prime merrily then it auto reboots after about 1-3 hours,

am i right in assuming its due to *** overheating problem in either the cpu, nb or sb..

at least thats what i gather instead of prime error..
will be getting my zm nbf47 tomorrow, will swap the nb, put a fan on the sb and reset my ac7 pro..

can someone please confirm the temp on *** sb.. my reading shows high 60s

it seems weird that any speed over 430 will require vcore of 1.5...

i guess my cpu is limited to under 430 or do i need to raise the voltages on otehr settings?
Click to expand...

please make it simple

I don't understand your post,check your spelling and be more concise

am i right in assuming its due to the overheating problem in either the cpu, northbridge or southbridge..

at least thats what i gather instead of prime error asi there is not error reported but jsut a reboot..
i will be getting my zm nbf47 tomorrow, will swap the northbridge, put a fan on the southbridge and reinstall my ac7 pro..

can someone please confirm the temp on the southbridge.. my reading shows high 60c using an external probe

it seems weird that any speed over 430 nhz will require vcore of 1.5...

i guess my cpu is limited to under 430 or do i need to raise the voltages on other settings?

This makes no sense :confused:

Would you guys say stable 100% 2.8GHz overclock on an E6300 on stock volts on everything apart from ram is decent?
Click to expand...


Thats a nice clock.

However 3.4ghz should be easily achieveable with a little bump in vcore.

My E6600 @ 3ghz no extra voltage increases and its rock stable..

I know its not much but Im proud of it lol. Didnt used to overclock much in the past, but not doing so on the conroe is a crime in my eyes.

Keep going that should be good for 3.4-3.6ghz at least. :cool:

I've got an E6600 and thought I've spent too much, thinking of dropping back to an E6300/6400 to save a little money. Ideally the E6300 to save the most, but I'm looking at 428FSB to get 3.0GHz and 457FSB to get 3.2GHz, it this realistic with the Asus P4W DH - I've not really seen many results with an Allendale/P5W combination. The E6400s multi would sure help but as I said, I'd prefer to go for the cheaper model.

If getting a E6300 then the 965 chipset is better for them and overclocking.

However the 975 chipset is better with the 6600 and upwards conroe models.


You will not get 450 FSB on the ASUS.

I don't unerstand why you have gone for the asus at 150 quid and then want to skimp on the brain of the pc.

Wht not just get a DS3 for 100 quid and a 6300 in the first place.

If i was you I would stick with your original choice and get a E6600.As a 6300 with the asus will be a mismatched system.
