***The Official E4300 Overclocking Thread***

I have been following this topic and it looks good. so would all you guys think that this is better than a e6300? what mobo would you suggest to get a good overclock..

As far as I'm aware - even the cheaper boards will have a relatively easy time overclocking this cpu due to the high multi used. I may need correcting though.
 
wish this was like 939 :(

I'ts definitely not the chip as it wont boot at 3.2ghz either. I'm just pretty confused. there are different straps and depending on the strap i use i get different dividers!

I can only got 1:1 on the 1033 strap but that corresponds to a 266mhz fsb?!

The strap as gotten from the cpu is 800...how do i get my ram to run 1:1?
 
cool, i get 17seconds with 3.4ghz at 1.35v. Seem to have hit a brick at 400fsb
though :(

It's def not the cpu because on a lower divider (8) at 3.2ghz it won't boot?!

Suggestions...

Gonna try new bios now. wish me luck
 
It's something I can't put my finger on. If i lower divider to 8 and leave fsb as 400mhz with 1.35v (which ran orhos for bout 16 mins fine) it won't boot!!

I've lowered the divider to 6 and it still won't boot with a fsb of 400!!

Dont think it's my ram cos its geil 6400. Actually, i'l try the ram on an uber low divider and see if it works at 800mhz.

I've increased the cpu volts to 1.52v at 3200 with a 400fsb and it still won't boot. It doesn't even get to the splash screen

I've increasd the mch voltage to 1.9v and nothing.

1.35v, 3.4ghz and 1.5 mch voltage works just fine though ?!

thoughts anyone?

EDIT: I guess 3.4ghz with 1.35vcore in bios and load temps of 42C on an intel stock cooler aint too bad :)
