E2220 @ 3.6GHz 1.42v (fAiL)

Hi OCN

I OC’ed my E2220 to a massive 3600MHz (400 x 9) last night and once I stressed it with linpack I received a BSOD (Uncontrolled Hardware)

Do you think I should increase the V-core of my CPU (Safe Voltage for the chip is 1.5v) ((My Motherboard (UD3P) options for OC’ing but half of them I never use))

Will my little AF7Pro be able to cool the chip with 1.5v?

If I can get stable with the E2220 @ 3600MHz what sort of life span will I have? The Chip is 5 months old and it has been running at 3.2GHz for all of that time

P.S. I think I’ve got a good CPU because to achieve a 400FSB (1600QDR) is simply amazing I think my Motherboard has a lot to do with it as well.

The VID on the chip is 1.2125v

Run Orthos small FFTs and read your temperatures with realtemp after letting it run a little while. If they're good (<60c) then yes, you should be able to add some voltage. If your system is too unstable to fully load the CPU for a minute or two to check temps, increase the voltage to 1.45v, rinse and repeat.
Linpack(intelburn) is much meaner than small fft's. But you don't mention temps and we need to know that.
My Temps where 54C (TJ Max 85) it was only the start of the test
you can pump tons of voltage into that chip i would go up to 1.65 myself but would say 1.6 for you.

They say to stay below 1.5V to stay within safe voltage

65mn chips are pretty tough i put 1.7 throu one of my q6600. i had a e2180 it took 1.6vcore for 3.8
really i will not burn it out. I would love 3.6GHz it would be great will my coler be ok with the voltage
ok my board is good enough i take it
The only thing you can do is increase the voltage. How long did it take to BSOD? After you increase the volts, if it doesn't BSOD with a couple hours of Intel Burn it should be stable. OCCT is another good CPU stress program. That is a golden E2220 you have there. I'm amazed by the ultra low 1.2125v VID which is very very low for a 65nm CPU. You even beat the VID on my 45nm E5200 of 1.225v. My E2140 isn't even close with a VID of 1.325v.

Yes and your CPU has a super high multiplier. Your cooler should be fine just as long as the temperature stays in check.

my VID = 1.2125



good little cpu then

Yep, you have a really sweet chip. I hope it didn't sound like I was questioning the validity of your VID (but thanks for the proof none the less). I was just complimenting your really nice chip. I wasn't surprised it was a low VID chip since they tend to OC better than high VID chips. How much voltage does it need for 3.2GHz to be stable. Let us know how far you get it stable.

I can boot into windows at 3.7GHz but it's not stable.

I can only get stable at 350 x 10 = 3500MHz which is still great for this chip

I have a E7200 that i'm going to try next

I scared to push my chip past 1.5v

Intel® Pentium® Processor for Desktop E2220

Intel VID voltage range is 0.85 - 1.5V
I wouldn't go to far past 1.5v w/o water. Do you really need to hit 3.7 or is it just for some e-peen

I can boot in to windows @ 3.7GHz & play Saints Rows 2 but didn't do any stress so I deemed it as unstable.

No 3.5GHz is plenty good enough for this chip but I would love to get 3.7GHz stable but it might require 1.6v
I cant get above 3.0ghz at all. Im at 333*9 w 1.35v. It takes me 1.5v just to boot at 3.2 and will fail with ant stress. So you got a good chip.

Thanks mate. I'll post pic of it booting at 3.7GHz

But i wish i could get stable

but 3.5GHz is great
