i will try 1.7v tonight if it is cool in here. if not then i can always take the rig out side

how cold is it outside, that always works?

its kinda a mild day but it still is about 40f cooler then it is in here

man I wish I had those temps here.

11.2 @ 3.4GHz, this board finally let me use the x17 multi.

 

[Chicken Patty]

updated, you are between me and full now

11.2 @ 3.4GHz, this board finally let me use the x17 multi.

try setting your NB multi to x12 which would make it run at 2400 Mhz, should get you a lower 11 sec. run.

 

[3dsage]

Yeah I never figured out what the NB is multiplied by, what setting is that?

BTW thanks, i'll try that out. Should I up the voltage on the NB?

I dont know on your board, should be at 10x default.

try without bumping the NB voltage, if not stable then bump the nB voltage just a bit and see.

Nice man, i'll give it a shot tomorow.
i'm done overclocking for today , It gets aggrevating rebooting a billion times

updated, HOSS, just keeps getting better and better dude.

I gave it a try....I got 1.73v going into it and maxed at 3475mhz for a Wprime run but didn't save it in time before it hang So 3.4ghz is going to be my highest... Just if anyone was wondering my temps hit 42c idle and ~65c load had to raise the shutoff temp to 70c to get 1 run. after that i went into the bios and set the voltage back down to a conffy 1.3v

damn dude, guess thats all it can do with that cooling dude

wish i could setup phase or DICE... but don't see that even being possible. maybe it is just time to upgrade my CPU to a PII

but i am happy to say that this chip did what i was hoping for when i bought it. and maybe even alittle more. not a bad use of ~$70 when i bought it.

bro if you are on a realy budget, the x3's I think are pretty cheap and are great performers!

Thats what i have been looking at.... I think i am going to try and get a 4850 and a PII X3 if i can't then maybe just a PII X3 or a GTX 260 216

that'll be a nice little setup bro

 

[p_o_s_pc]

that'll be a nice little setup bro

thanks I think i would be too... But don't really know if it is needed this does everything i want/need it to do. but couldn't hurt the e-penis any

EDIT: also looking at the PII X4 810

thinking CPU now video card later. AS it has been shown the 8800GT can get ALOT higher scores in 3dmark with a faster CPU

PII x4 810 bad idea not that great of ocer.

not really looking for a great clocker. If i can get 3-3.1ghz out of it like i can my 4850e and 5kBE then that is fine with me... I would gain 2 cores and it still have more work done per clock then my x2

you can do that easily on factory heat sink. average i would say is about 3.7-3.8 GHz on factory cooler. I would get CPU before card, switching to a quad core will yield about another 2-3000 points in 3dmark. I've been through it trust me.

I would be cooling it with my xigy 1283 OR my Tt V1 so that would have to be better then factory. I have found that 3.5ghz on the 810 is about average

even better 3.5 GHz sounds about right.

 

[p_o_s_pc]

kinda funny that the 810 average clock is just out of reach of my max overclock for the 4850e
