i have a heatsink and fan on the nb, i didnt bohter changing the stock paste cuz i thoghit it was good enoph, anyway i got this nvidia fan and balck litte heatsink. well that thing is way cooler and effechent then the stock P_O_S asus put on there, i dont notice any sound and its running at 2300rpm, stays about 32c idle and 41-42c under stress. and is at 1.39, i have run 1.56 on this board when i had my old e2140 to get it to 1600fsb 400x8=3.2ghz and it was stable but my cpu needed alot of voltage so i want to 1500fsb and 1.56 it stayed cool, i dont recall the acual temps tho.

Hi,

Please note that I am not a very experienced overclocker. Here is my config:

Asus P5N-E SLI
Intel Core 2 Duo E6600
2 GB Corsair
NVidia GeForce GTX 280

I recently bought a watercooling system to maximize silence and to overclock the CPU and the GTX 280. However the results are a little disappointing, here is the maximum I managed to reach (Prime95 stable):

FSB: 380 (1520 QDR)
VCore: 1.43125
VNB: 1.748 (yes, the maximum)
Multiplier 9 (CPU at 3.42 Ghz)

The CPU temps are really not a problem (40C max), thanks to the watercooling. I kept the stock rad on the NB, could it be the problem? Or am I just hitting the CPU limits? When I read the first posts of this thread it sounds very promising but when I try it myself I can't even reach a 400 FSB...

I just tried to find my FSB max just for the ****z and giggles and I got all the way up to 490, and post with a FSB of 500. And thats with the CPU multiplier at 6x and 1.5v on the NB.

Put your CPU at 6x aswell and your ram at stock speed and try to find your max FSB you can boot in and if you're not getting passed 400 FSB then its your board holding you back.

Then try to OC your CPU without OCing your RAM so that eliminates that aswel.

If it fails then... you got yourself a bad OCing CPU.

Right off the bat, get some passive cooling on that NB. I'm using a CM Blue Ice Pro on mine. After that, bump down the NB voltage to 1.563 (I believe that's the selection...).

as stated- the nb needs aftermarket cooling. if you run stock voltage on it, stock heatsink + as5 or better is ok. if you use the 1.5v or 1.7v option you really need aftermarket cooling.
please fill out your system specs so I can get a better idea where you are at. what psu do you have? have you tried the +100mv option? is your pci set to 100mhz?
please fill out your system specs and I (we) can help you further.

Zippit I think you may be our only female P5N-E'er. That's something to be proud of lol.

Ok. I will buy something for the chipset as soon as I can.

Huh, no. Should I ? I can't get to 400 whatever voltage I set for the CPU (Windows won't boot). If I try FSB 400 and VNB < 1.763, I won't even get to the BIOS.

I'm searching for a good NB cooling solution, I read on the first post that the Thermalright HR-05-SLI is compatible, however I can only find the HR-05-SLI/IFX. Will it fit? From the specifications page we can see it's a little larger than the HR-05-SLI. Note that I don't have a SLI (nor do I want one).

Also, is it necessary to mount a fan on it?

I'm buying mine tonight (the SLI/IFX) and i was going to get the 80mm fan to go on it (something like a Panaflo) just because it'll make the cooler perform better. esp since its only a couple of quid/dollars.
Try and find some installed pics, i've seen some people install them at an angle and facing different directions, depends what your air flow is like.

For your board, would it be better to find a water cooling solution for this though? (never had one so not sure)
