PL is automatically set to 10 at these speeds.
I'll have to try the latest bios. Tried few of the bios's between this and the newest, and they didn't help.
I'll be back with my tests.

Still less than the E4x00 series

*cries* My self esteem!

Inioch · Apr 11, 2009

Things just keep getting weirder. Flashed the m2002 bios and set my normal settings.
Memory is set in bios @ 800 4-4-4-12 1:1, but it shows in every program as 5:6 5-5-5-15 @960?

Can this be, because I forgot to reset the bios to default values before flashing?

Ketxxx · Apr 11, 2009

You can set a 800MHz divider, but remember once you start OCing your memory speed goes up with it. The board will automatically adjust timings as well if you leave them on auto.

Inioch · Apr 11, 2009

I manually set in bios the memory divider to ddr2-800, fsb to 400 and timings to 4-4-4-12, that's how they show in bios. But still they show in windows as fsb 400, memory @ 480 eg. 5:6 and timings as 5-5-5-15.

Do you have your fsb strap set to auto or manually set to 333 or 400?
The 400 strap has an issue with some memory dividers and you'll actually find your memory running faster than set in bios.
This could explain the speed difference, as for the timings, well it shouldn't mess with those if you set them manually. :confused:

Inioch · Apr 11, 2009

Well, somehow I got it working after several removals of battery and clrcmos jumper attempts. Now it's working again, but still no stable 1:1 over 400. Tried with way too high volts too.

421x9.5 @
1.29 cpu
1.40 nb
1.30 sb
2.20 mem

Still crashed at any kind of load.
Arent C0 Wolfs supposed to clock decently over 4g.
I mean, E0's require lot less volts and have more headroom, but 4g's on a C0 shouldn't be this big of a problem.
I guess I'll just have to get myself some new mem's.
I've been looking at these
50€ here, the cheapest decent 4gig set of 1000-1066 mems.

It's set manually to 333.

1.29v vcore will never get you to 4Ghz. I have the same e8500 c0 and to achieve 4Ghz i need roughly 1.4v

That's just nuts. This does 3.8 @ 1.26 bios (1.24 cpu-z).
Guess I'll just have to try some more. But that's tomorrow, have to go to work for the night.

alexp999 · Apr 11, 2009

core voltage isnt linear.

I need about 1.35v for 3.2 GHz, but 1.46v for 3.6 GHz :wtf:

Ketxxx · Apr 11, 2009

Ditto. I can do 3.2GHz @ 1.27v or so, but 3.6GHz I need 1.43v. :/

Inioch · Apr 11, 2009

How about the other voltage settings?
NB, SB, PLL, GTL ref, not that sure about those, since this is my first Intel rig ever.

Cheers guys for the help so far.

Ketxxx · Apr 11, 2009

NB/SB: 1.3-1.4v
PLL: 1.6v
GTL ref: try all of them
FSB Term.: 1.3-1.4v

Inioch · Apr 11, 2009

Guess I'll have to ghetto mount a 12cm cooler I have lying around for the NB/memory area, NB is at 50c on 1.2v. Not a good combo to try to oc alot and keep it quiet.

Thanks Ket!

Ketxxx · Apr 11, 2009

A great way to cool the NB is pick up a 40mm fan, bend the end NB HS fins out a little, then mount the fan with the provided screws, job done! I done that exact thing and now my NB HS doesn't even get warm to the touch.

Just for interests sake ....
Massive voltage though!!

crazy pyro · Apr 11, 2009

That was in NO WAY a 24/7 OC but still pretty darn nice.

Ketxxx · Apr 11, 2009

Hmm.. thats still a very low FSB vs. even the Allendales. Nice overall core clock though.

Yeah, true. Just thought you'd like to see it.

ace80 · Apr 11, 2009

Just for you Inioch

1.3v set in bios 1.288 idle & load in windows.
Its stable enough to boot, superpi runs & surf web but thats about it.

Inioch · Apr 11, 2009

Allright ace, I believe you :laugh:

Out of interest, what do you run your e8500 at?
Of course you have vc, but still curious.

Next week is going to be quite interesting, will have to pick up some fans for the mobo and start clocking like crazy :rockout:

ace80 · Apr 11, 2009

When i was on air i usually ran @ 3.6Ghz with a littlw bump to the stock voltage. Max air clocks around 4.5Ghz but it was extreme air cooling with extreme voltage, there are pics in various threads. I've only had my w/c setup for a few weeks so i dont really have a 24/7 setting yet. This rig is just for benching/gaming (which i havn't done alot of recently), my other rig is on more often for the telly.

I usually just go with a setting, play around, if its not stable increase volts, if it is stable increase the oc.
Atm i seem to spend more time in the bios screen than i do any other, i pretty much know it blind (which has come in handy once) :laugh:

crazy pyro · Apr 11, 2009

Screw up your monitor did you?

ace80 · Apr 11, 2009

Nah, blind flashing my 3870

Tried a bios that didn't take to well

Kursah · Apr 11, 2009

Just did a major cleaning of my rig, tore the MB out and decided I'd reseat the NB/Sb with some MX-2. I was going to use MX-2 on the mosfets, but the "silly putty" strips between them and the sinks appeard to be doing fine, and those sinks generally don't get much beyond warm. I was actually impressed, both the NB and SB had good amounts of TIM, the seating was good...took a little work to get the heatsink assy off the board. I'm only a few minutes into boot and folding, but so far the NB is running about 4C cooler, we'll see if it stays that way after an hour or two. Before the NB was loading around 42C and staying there as this rig folds generally 24/7.
