OK so i'm thinking about splashing on an X2 now the prices have come down a bit, but before i go for it i wanna know how well they clock. My SD runs quite happily at 2.6 - which isn't fantastic compared to the new ones i know, but i don't really want to go to a dual core running any slower. As i'm sure there are a lot of people like me eyeing dual cores now game supprt is starting to filter through, how would people like to post up some overclocks they've got on x2 4400s (gotta have those 1 meg caches).

Can you give me, overclock, stepping, when you bought it, voltage and what motherboard you're running it on.

cheers ears
 
hmmm, after reading that 'principles of a64' article that's knocking around i assumed that A64'd take pretty well to using dividers - that's what i'm doing at the moment. my timings are better than the high htt chips and the mems still runnning at 216.

i used to run a couple of ocz 4000 vx sticks at 250 with awesome timings and even then the bandwidth wasn't that much more.

So to recap you reckon most 4400s will do 2.6 yeah? i'm happy to go over if this is the case, but don't want to swap if i'm gonna lose performance in old games, ie have to run the cores lower than this.

Also not sure i can be arsed to spend £200 on water for those extra couple of hundred mhz, when i can just keep that money for my next upgrade, so it's have to do 2.6 on air...

i have an xp90c with ys tech 92mm fan - you reckon that'll be enough?
