are those your cpu temps or core temps because i am talking about core temp

Haha Overall :P It's all I can see with 4 cores

But with 3 I hit 41-43C on max load with with 3.8(yes on the cores)

Bartmasta · 07-05-09

so if I get better cooling I should be able to hit 3.8?

If temps is the only thing stopping you, then yes

Bartmasta · 07-05-09

I don't know if it's just temps or I have a bad chip. There's no good way to check because I need COLD temps to achieve 40'C load on this cooler and that won't be until a while.

Like i hour occt may suit many but some people are fine without passing IBT. My friends rig (e6600) never ever passes ibt, but he games non stop and runs his rig pretty much 24/7. He can prime like 4+ hours but i think it fails by 10, usually. But its his rig and he claims it never crashes. So thats kinda why I think it should be what works for the user, but then again we should ask. If someone really wanted to they could cheat an OC pretty easily. There are many ways to do it, I think we should just be honest and ask others to be honest and not be too hard about it.

I think a blanket definition for stability would be the right way to go...I suggest ten runs of IBT on standard, seeing as the program is small, it doesn't take long to run (as compared to a lengthy run of Prime95) and works for 32+64 bit systems. If people want to run unstable systems for their everyday kicks, then so be it - but to be in the club (no Homers) then a standard for stability would seem appropriate.

bart, x3 or x4 atm? but anyway, 50C shouldnt be limiting you yet. youd need to hit like 55-58C until heat becomes an issue.

x3

u sure 50'C is not too much for core temps? Cause if I run OCCT @ 3750 MHz with 1.475V I crash

You can go to 73 if you have an x3; if you unlocked to x4 you can go to 71C. So go for it! Give it 1.5v, I guarantee you'll be stable at 3.7. I'm at 1.52v for 3.7ghz.

On the stability testing, just a thought-- what about "if it passes Cinebench10*4", it's good to go. That was plenty stressful for me-- once I got it CB10 stable, it was everything else stable, too.

BTW, guys I need a hobby, or something to do with my computer that will make it feel slow again. I can't load out all 4 cores to 100%. If I can't do this then I won't feel the desire to upgrade again. I really don't have any need to encode my 8 DVDs to my harddrive...there's got to be something to load it down...besides folding...even image stitching was plenty fast on my dual core...
