I don't see why not. Not making any promises though. I jus looked at it on newegg and it doesnt look like it would have a problem on that board.

Not sure if its been posted already but here's a quick article on how ACC can help with OCing.

um guys....is 1.48 the latest version of cpuz? cuz i did a simple multi oc and voltage bump with my phenom 9950 125 and it shows up as an engineering sample? huh?

the overclock is stable at 1.248 i ran prime 95 for 5 hours and the amd stability test for another 5.

Im looking to get this thing higher, my cooling keeps it at 46 load and 34 idle. Buuuuuut i just turned on my computer today and it reads 0c? (look below) the bios reads it fine though...

What do i need to do to get this puppy higher? more voltage and multi.....or lower multi and higher bus, NB speeds?

Here is my second attempt at OCing this cpu and first post WCing the cpu.

Ok..could not get a Word document on Imageshack...

Anyway 3.50 1.55v FSB 250x14
3dMark06 - 18428 - 4870x2 stock no OCing

Finally loaded file. See attached.

Just got mine today (err.. yesterday.. ) and so far i'm very pleased. I have yet to do any amount of stress tests due to temps but it boots just fine at 3.2ghz with 1.31v.

One question. How much of a temperature drop should I expect once the as5 finally sets? I'm stopping the benchmarks when it gets close to 60c. Which it does after about 3 mins of prime95. I have no airflow issues.

Tests were run at 3.0 ghz 1.28v.

I currently have my 9950 @ 3.0 @ 1.3V. I would like to climb to 3.1, and 3.2. What kind of a voltage increase would i be looking at here?

CAHOP240

I keep seeing 1.4 as a sweet spot for OC's over 3.1. Start with 1.35 - 1.38, depending on how your temps hold up. If its not stable, jump to 1.4

blackspirerider

yeah i got to 3.1 at 1.6v. and in game pc restarted. so im back at 3.0 and 1.30v untill i get a better cooling system for CPU. Do i need to stress about it getting hot like that and overheating to restart once? im keeping it at 3.0 untill new fan.

CAHOP240

Thats a huge jump in voltage to go from 3.0 to 3.1. Did you try other voltages between 1.3 - 1.6? I don't think you have to go that high in juice for a 100Mhz boost. If you have then you should stick around 3.0 for now...1.6v is scary to me.

wow...i didnt realize that i made that big of a type-o lol. i meant to say from 1.30 (for 3.0ghz) to 1.36 (3.1ghz). once again. my bad. cheers. i am planning on getting this to solve this issue. http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product...82E16835887011
