E5200 - Overclocking Thread

[kleptodathief]

^ wow is that 24/7 stable? ur bios vcore is around 1.444??? kinda hi!

i think 3.5ghz is enuff for me...don't wanna fcuk my puter lol

im trying to put a cost on this

215 mobo + cpu
40 hsf
90 ram
90 case/psu
150 HD
100 vidcard
===
700ish dam , my goal was like 400 lol

[vicious_fishes]

whats with everyone doing overvolted runs ? surely they're not 24/7's ?

Yes this was with 1.44, I just wanted to see how far chippy can go, maybe if I added more voltage it could, but I didn`t wanted to go higher right now.
Now I`m 3.5 @ 1.36925, guys are prolly overvolting cause it is cheap IC, and at least I will, get Quad in 6-12 months time..

Dont know, but it might be that we are intrested in what this thing can do... pretty much everyone including me are running aprox 3.5Ghz 24/7

guys, i need a confirmation here.... will the e5200 and my asus p5q pro CAN install vista ultimate 64 bits??? i dont wanna waste my time trying to install o/s again ,,, cheers

2ndly, it will READ all FOUR gbs of ram correct? currently vista ultimate x32 is only showing 3327megs of ram


im reading some 64x mobos cant really support 64x o/s

The soup gets thicker - it turns out that many motherboards that host 64-bit processors have 32-bit address limitations - DOH! For example, my system uses the NVidia nForce4 Ultra chipset. It's performed beautifully for me for the last two years. The machine is currently host a dual-core, Athlon 64 CPU. But even if I were to install the 64-bit version of Vista, I'd never see all four gigs of RAM. It turns out that the chipset only has a 32-bit addressing scheme. Vista will never see all four gigs on this box - even the 64-bit version. Bwah! Guess I'll stick with two gigs.

i managed to get up to 3.68 ghz stable now ... i just want to max out my cpu speed using max vcore of 1.4000v




i had it at 3.84 ghz with 12x multiplier but got BSOD when i prime95
looks like 3.68ghz is my max stable so far....

[kleptodathief]

when prime95 has a rounding error, its the RAM? i checked cpuz and it said 533mhz! thats like 133 oc'd! i had it on AUTO too!

i think my ram is most stable at only 400mhz

[BlankThis]

Guys the max Vcore for 24/7 is 1.365.
I wouldn't suggest running at more then that for very long because 45nm's are picky and don't take hits as well as the 65nm (E2180 etc.)

~B~

[kleptodathief]

my mobo is rated 1800fsb i think, in cpuz it says 1280, im currently using my laptop now cuz im doing a memtest+86 v2.01 test, im trying to max my ram speed out, thats causing the BSOD in vista correct? and freezing lockups

how long do i run memtest for???

just had bsod and had to repair windows yesterday! but its all ok
now

lets c if i can run crysis warhead game using daemon tools lite
