I'm trying to get caught up with this thread, there are a lot of nice overclocks in here!
A close friend of mine is building a budget gaming rig on older tech, he managed to find a P6T Deluxe V1 that we'll be cross-flashing to a P6T WS Pro, and I snagged him an X5650 today, it should be one hell of an upgrade from his current Q6600. I'm hoping that we'll be able to get the CPU to around 4.2GHz for him. Marry that with the 7970 from his current rig and it should be able to rock some games for quite a while. :rockout:

EDIT: If anybody has some leads on triple-channel RAM kits, let me know. RAM is the only thing we still need.

Cool......... P6T deluxe is great for overclocking as is X5650.

You will have some fun setting that up for him.......nice one... :peace:

Thanks!
Having never clocked on 1366 or a Xeon before, I'm sure I'll be in here asking questions as we go on the hunt for a stable overclock.
Correct me if I'm wrong on any of this, but the settings I'm looking at putting in for a quick and dirty 4.2 OC are as follows:
200 Bclk x21, bottoming out QPI and RAM dividers at first
1.35 VCore
1.35 QPI
~1.25 IOH
and enabling "High TDP Turbo Mode" so the multiplier doesn't throttle back.

Does this sound even close to correct for, like I said, a quick and dirty 4.2GHz?

*cough*

So... uhh... 1.35VCore is a little high for 4.2? Besides VCore, what are the voltages you had to use to run that speed?

CAPSLOCKSTUCK · Oct 13, 2016

Auto if i remember correctly.

Oh wow, this will be a cake walk, then. Thanks!

CAPSLOCKSTUCK · Oct 13, 2016

My X 5670 @ 4.4 ghz and HD 7970 1000/1450 gets me 60fps in GTAV on high/very high settings. GPU 99%....CPU 70 %.

I dont play SC

aaagh you edited out the bit about Star Citizen

No worries, I thought about it and my 4930k at stock (3.4GHz) runs SC well, so an OC'd 5650 should do just fine.

If the CPU is a good overclockable one and not power hungry maybe you can get 4.2GHz with 1.29V/1.30V and depends if HT will be enabled or disabled.

cdawall · Oct 13, 2016

Well I just ordered a pair of E5645's to upgrade a customers 2P workstation. These things are stupid cheap...

FireFox · Oct 13, 2016

In my case i need 1.29V for 4.3GHz, HT disabled.

HT will be on. I don't mind tweaking volts if need be, but I may need some help from you Xeon gurus!

Trust me after pricing them out I want to grab an SR2, but those are expensive.

Old Generation = more Fun
