BTW Who actually uses there hardware @ 100% for three hours???
Well... you can run 15min of 512K FFT's as indication of stable IMC/RAM.

So post me your highest stable overclock using the following template

CPU -
Clock Speed -
Bios Version -
VCore -
NB Speed -
NB Voltage -
HT Link -
Bus -
Multi -
Ram Speed -
Any any other info you feel like including. CPU Validadion would be good and proof of stability so 3+ Hours Prime95.

Ill get to work on it when I get in this evening!
Here's mine..

CPU - Phenom X2 550 --> Phenom X4 B50
Clock Speed - 3.8 GHz Fully Stable
Bios Version - 1.5b4
VCore - 1.467 (bios) --> 1.47x (cpu-z)
NB Speed - 2.6 GHz
NB Voltage - forgot (i think +1 step from auto)
HT Link - 2.6 GHz
Bus - 200
Multi - 19
Ram Speed - 1600 MHz (8-7-6-15*1T)

check the attachment for proof..

Smile Overclocking help....

So, I've got a question, I did some searching and didn't really find the answer I'm looking for.

So I'm new to over clocking again. It's been a long time! I was able to successfully flash my bios to the latest version (1.5b4 I believe) without bricking my motherboard. That was a heart attack inducing experience!

So now I'm wondering, where do I start for overclocking? What settings do I start adjusting? I played around with AMD Overdrive, and that got me a soft OC of 3.7ghz, by adjusting the multiplier to 18.5x but I want to hard OC it, and get this baby REALLY purring. I was able to max out the OC on my 4890, so now I want to get working on the rest of the OC.

Tips, suggestions, and even flames for being a renoob at this are welcome, and mostly appreciated.

Thanks!

Sabiba

No flaming fom me I know how you feel. These PII's seem to all be different. Luckily the bios theis board has makes It easier as it will show you the adjusted clock speed for CPU, HT, NB and memory. The CPU-NB(IMC) seems to like to be around 2600, while HT seems to like 24000-2600 on mine. The only really good advice I can give you is to do it like you would any OC. Work one component at a time to see how high you can take it then write it down and go on to the next. After you have done that for CPU, CPU-NB(IMC), FSB(HTT), HT, and your Ram you can compare and see where they would intercept for your best results.

Well I must say again im impressed. Using the 1.4 bios I have been able to get a stable overclock at 3.8Ghz on my 720 BE. Was just not possible on my other GD-70 with the 1.3 bios.

Not posting my final results yet as I got a lot of tweaking to do also got 2 Asus 4890's headin to me this week to overclock then Ill get in some Vantage scores.

And maybe do my first Super PI runs!
