vcore drop on p5b

chris_smith · 20 Jun 2007 at 18:59

bios is set at 1.35v, and cpuz is saying 1.3v

iv currently got my e6600 set at 365x9 (3.285mhz) and orthos just keeps blowing me out. do you think this is voltage related?

It's voltage related but it's nothing to do with the undervolt, just increase Vcore a notch and try again.

ok its still happening at 1.35v now.
this is the error can you tell me what it means?

Test 1, 4000 Lucas-Lehmer iterations of M19922945 using 1024K FFT length.

It means the overclock has failed the stress test. Either put the voltage up a bit more, or drop the overclock until it runs stable. Keep a close eye on temperatures if you keep putting the voltage up.

speed fan is saying 63 degrees under full load is that ok or a little on the high side?

Possibly a little high.

What does CoreTemp or TAT say?

chris_smith · 20 Jun 2007 at 20:49

i dont have thos. but asus probe is sayin the same as speedfan. motherboard temps are nice and low tho cuz iv added extra cooling. ac freezer 7 on the cpu, perhaps i should invest in a tad more thermal paste? i made do with what was on the heatsink

I would use CoreTemp from here to monitor your CPU temps. It's closer to the real CPU temps than Speedfan usually is.

chris_smith · 20 Jun 2007 at 20:55

that says 58? still abit on the plus side yar?

Cob · 20 Jun 2007 at 21:27

Around 60c is fine.
