post #1 of 7

>>> FX-6100 overclock to ~4.55Ghz (<62c on AIR)

.... results for the curious ...

after some well deserved time off ...
again , I am attemptting to optimize the performance
on a " 2011 ... Black-Friday Special" Bargain-Build ..
... (a great story for another time)

gigabyte : 880ga-ud3h V.3.1 BIOS:FgF ( $78)
CPU: AMD : Fx-6100 ( Bulldozer / Zambezi ) ($99)
CPU cooler : CM Hyper 212 Plus ($15)
RAM : (4 x 2) (1600) g.skill sniper F3-12800CL9D-8GBSR ($25)
PSU : Corsair Enthusiast : TX650 v2 ($55)
HDD : Hitachi 500Gb Hitachi HDS721050 ($50)
VID : OnBoard : Radeon HD4250
DVD/R/W : Optiarc AD-7240s ($16)
CASE : CM Elite 430 ($0 /after MIR)

... wow, one heck of a journey ...

... but, thanks to all the great OC support sites ..

... I finally got this AMD Bulldozer/Zambezi rig to OC'd 4.55Ghz ;
...and IS pretty stable & REAL-COOL & Quiet !

imho: neither the: AMD FX-6100 nor the GA 880ga
will NOT win any awards; but I am pleased
I finally got it clocked&stable
over 4.55Ghz w/temperatures <62c @load.

AOD Benchmark/Performance Score
is relatively dismal : 8700+/-
... ( my "affordable" RAM did NOT help)


below is some images of the OC results :
... follow-up with BIOS screen-shots

@ L O A D

495

. this is really an exercise of curiosity rather than of necessity.!
18mos. ago I built/OC'd Intel: 2500k ..Asus P8P67 etc.
... from current experience .. I admit that I do
... prefer OC'g an Intel/Aus over AMD/Gigabyte ..

Suggestion: that FX-6100 overclock on this board should be complemented with proper VRM cooling on the board.

Thanx for that tip. thumb.gif I had noticed those thingy's' really getting really-toasty,
so back in January, I installed 16+ ( or so ) Zalman RHS1's .

All these hot & black, chippy-thingys (MOS-FET's & choke's, I think?) ...
have pretty blue, pointy-hats now :
