BTW Drin did u c the pics I took from my setup? Posted them a while back...

No I did not sorry :O I'll go look for them now! Cheers for the heads up!

Edit: Bleh, my internet dropped out

And I just went through the last few months (quick look) and I only saw the pics of your setup that I last saw - are there new ones? If so, give us a link!

And that is one very, very sweet setup btw

I believe I gave you some rep for it, it is that awesome.

Your temps are

I could never hope to acheive that - I've done almost everything I can do except to move to a colder climate, and my temps are as is

BTW....Change ur sig

(it's 4GHz for you now

)

BTW, I'll update you in the list when I have asap

EDIT:
Yeah....temps are really nice! It was done with an ambient temp of 20-21C. Currently my ambient temps are 27C

, temps will be much higher.

In time good sir! Still tweaking away - tbh I got side tracked with super PI and my timings xD Didn't think I'd get a decent time without any tweaking for that alone.

Going to give linpack on max a run, and if that passes, try to squeeze some more MHz! If I cannot, I will try to prime my current OC to test for further stability.

Either that, or I'll kill my computer and mobo in the process

drin you have to pm me your secrets. i am stuck at 3.904ghz. i can push it to 4.040ghz as you can see but not stable.

Gsk3rd, your signature rig says you're running DDR2 1066 but your CPU-Z validation says you are running DDR2 800. Which type of memory are you running? If it's DDR2 800 then you may want to drop the divider, that should drop the memory frequency. It's currently about 138Mhz overclocked. Overclocked memory may cause instability. You may want to also consider your current overclock being the limit of your processor. Either way I think you've gotten quite far with your 940 already

Good luck

Well it is actually 1066 but my OCs need it to be 800mhz.

Like Drin I am gunning for 4.0ghz. I know it possible with my chip but I know there are some things i am missing.

thxs for look Thlnk3r.

edit: I just looked at my cpu validation and realized I was running my memory at 1066 in that OC. hmmmmmmm More testing is need at 1066 then.

Haha I would help you if I could, but I am in the same boat.

Sadly my clocks are not fully stable, so I do not think you should add them to the database. Although I can pass the Intel Burn Test on max, Prime 95 kills my OC pretty quickly.

I did pick up my new sticks at least, so that's a plus. Always going to be oc'ing with 4gb of ram now.

Anyway, I still believe that I may get it stable... it is so damn close. It only needs to be able to pass prime 95 for at least 3 hours, hopefully 12 (if I test it for that long) and I will deem it fully stable.

Oh well, back to it. Gl to everyone and especially gsk3d and xenomoph - 4.0GHz on this thing is a b**ch. At least one of us has to get it!
