So looking at my temps who thinks they can help me push it further? Since I upgraded my RAM the other month I really am struggling to get anything over 3.5Ghz shown and I know it can do more, I used to run it at 4Ghz for benching and that was on an old air cooler.

Irony · Dec 14, 2012

Is it loaded in that shot? Temps are quite good. I'm suprised you can run it with that little voltage tho, try raising CPU volts a bit if your trying to OC. My 1090T needed 1.40v to do 4.0ghz, and 1.5 to do 4.2. I never could get it to boot at any speed with less than 1.35 tho

JrRacinFan · Dec 14, 2012

That doesnt look right for temps. Need to know what current settings on dram and what you are trying.

Techtu · Dec 14, 2012

Those temps are correct :rockout:

I'm using stock clocks for the RAM - 9-9-9-27

JrRacinFan · Dec 15, 2012

Ok ? So at 250bclk you're running 1333 9-9-9-27 and what are core temps....

Techtu · Dec 15, 2012

Honestly the photo above are showing my true core temp, and my RAM is actually clocked 1868Mhz 9-9-9-27-40-T2

Leave it where it's at.

I just bought myself an PII x4 965 to replace the ageing and tired 940 in my sys specs so will be having a little play with it when it gets here

Edit:

Ok so it arrived this morning and I put it in when I got hame from work

so it's running stock 3.4GHz clock with a bump to HT and NB which are both running at 2.4GHz (stock=2.0GHz) and 1.38V and it's purring along nicely

Heldelance · Dec 19, 2012

I tried overclocking my AMD when I heard something clunking (like hitting the fans). Opened up the PC and it was a bloody christmas beetle. Christ I hate those little buggers.

Athlonite · Dec 19, 2012

ROFL Ba Humbug then

Vario · Dec 20, 2012

Hey guys. I've been battling getting my 965 BE over 4.0ghz! It has no problem running 4.0ghz at 200 mhz fsb 20x multi, 1.4125 core 1.125 cpunb, x12nb multi for nb (2400mhz nb). Idle is 37 and load is 50* C. Prime 95 stable for hours. Cooling is CM V8. Antec 300v2 case with fans all over it!

How do I get this thing to 4.1+?!? Extra core volt and cpunb volt isn't helping either.

...PACMAN... · Dec 20, 2012

Wow that CPUNB voltage is far too high for only running 2400, why so high?

I was following dolk's guide, which suggested for 4.0ghz a 2400 NB @ 1.250

...PACMAN... · Dec 20, 2012

So if you were following the guide, why have you put the voltage on CPUNB@1.425v?

Vario · Dec 20, 2012

Oops sorry its set to 1.1250v for the 4.0ghz stable OC. I missposted. I'll edit the above post. This thing is stable to run lean up to 4.0ghz @ 50*C then after that it falls flat and requires a ton of voltage on the nb and the core just to get to 4.1. I've been 30 mins stable so far p95 @4.1ghz (20.5x multi) 1.525 volt core 1.375 volt cpu-nb. Its at 53-56*C load at this temp.

Maybe I should give up and stay at 4.0ghz?

...PACMAN... · Dec 20, 2012

I would just stay at 4ghz, that's a standard phenom oc at acceptable temps. Now go and enjoy some games, it's xmas

The last batches got up to 4.5GHz BTW. 4.1-4.2GHz on air.

Tell him that, not me lol.

Responding to your reply. :slap:

...PACMAN... · Dec 20, 2012

Fair enough, on his current cooling I feel he should just stay at 4Ghz. It should be ample and it looks like he has reached his limit cooling wise.

Vario · Dec 21, 2012

Thanks for the passion guys :roll:

I really appreciate the advice so far.

I am at stable oc at 4.0ghz low voltage and stable at 4.1 ghz with high voltage, might as well go with low voltage

...PACMAN... · Dec 21, 2012

Enjoy amp, happy gaming

"Go with the path of least voltsistance and your processor will endure a long time on the earth"

I made that up.

This obviously is the threshold of your processor. FYI, 55 and under is great on temps so if you have headroom you can push it and Phenom II's are excellent even up to 1.55 volts.

They maybe great upto 1.55V but I wouldn't do it on air though
