Phenom 9950 overclocking

[cdawall]

not a 9950 but how does that look?

I don't claim that It was really 0C. Its what the monitoring programs are saying. The air temp outside was around -15 to -17C, cpu fan was at max speed. The air was coming straight from outside. And the idle temp was higher when I pushed the voltage. The 0C was with 1.408V Vcore and 3.2GHz. I had no time to check my temps when I hitted that 3.7GHz... I didn't want to risk my validation.

sweet clocks though Mez.... thats a killer mobo and cpu you got there.... shit if i were you id dump your 9950 and get the 940BE.... who knows...mabey that mobo is as close to one of a kind and will clock the crap outta a PII

This was how it looked like yesterday. The cold air rushes in to the warmer air in my room. And there is a computer right next to the vent with its side panel removed. Plus there was a cardboard pieces to direct the airflow to inside the case.

I really would like to know the limits with DICE...

Or what about 940 + LN2... I kinda like this AM2+ overclocking thing. The GBT certainly has a really simple BIOS... in some point I missed all the things other have in their DFI's and Asus'es... but the results. Well, I think it may not need all those little voltage thingies and ram settings.

thats cool Mez.... im thinking... what if i lengthened the tubing to my rad and just tossed it out the window with the fan on 100%..... having -20c air hitting it mite give some wicked low temps..... But does the coolant have a freeze point like regular car anti-freeze?

I think there is not much anti freezing features in normal coolant... I would most likely use 50/50 glycol/distilled water. Since I can get the glycol (automotive coolant) with different colors... I've seen red, blue and green. So I would not going to use any dye. And therefore I would probably end up using aluminium rads... (edit: because of the non-corrosive features the coolant has)

if that's the case Mez.... don't change your bios....

Looks good, so 1.38 Vcore?

look on the other set of voltages were it says VIN1 thats the cpu volts

 

[Meizuman]

F4a ftw (for now...). Maybe they did do something after I contacted GBT and asked for a bios that's optimized fot agena and overclocking

OMG Under water or something? Mine doesn't like anything above 1.6V... I really don't want to know what the temps would be on full load on that one!

 

[fullinfusion]

have you tried Black box Mez?
It shows independent core temps

 

[Meizuman]

BTW, does anyone have a clue where my name comes from...?
Here's a hint.

@full, never seen that one... *must-try-immediately* [robot talk]

Damn.. 14-15C on idle now and I just have the vent open... and my intake fans are on low speed. Now I am too tempted to try again.. this time 3.8 validated... hell, I'll give it a try.

nah i'm on the stock cooler this is one of the advantages of balls of steel and a 95w chip i'm @1.74v now

lol CD should i put my 9850 back in and bump my voltage up and up lol.... but this time you'll not back out hey?

i was getting low temps like that with my ol thermaltake V1 cooler with the side off and window open.... go..go.go and good luck Mez

looks good CDAWALL, not bad for a 9750

Still factory cooler?

go for it i won the max clock last time but you had higher volts this chip doesn't seem to care so i'm game

stock copper cooler like the one that comes with the X4 940. mine however has a 120mm 130CFM zip tied to it.

 

[cdawall]

hey full do i win?

You would be lol
You have nothin to loose since you have a new bad boy being delivered tomorrow
but i like the 940's performance and i think i had better not push this whistlen mobo.... she might be on her last leg

 

[fullinfusion]

Yes you win CD lol
Thats nuts man.... 2v to the core!!!

 

[fullinfusion]

And 92c on the cores! my 9850 hit 100c or so when the water pump failed, the system just shut down. this time a hooked the rotation wire to the cpu fan plug on the mobo so it wont happen again

That blows Mez... why does it reject it?
but nice clock bro

what is the TMPIN0 temp sensor reading CD?

is 2v to much?

it was running @104C lol

cpu temp
