After dozens of changing the frequency and voltage :D :D

I got a stable performance at 3.6 MHz :banana: :banana:

Before I wasnt able to go more than 3.37 ( 375 X 9 )

http://www3.0zz0.com/2007/03/23/20/52805458.jpg

and after many tests i found out that the North Bridge is the problem

it become hot to the point that i cant touch it

So. i orderd 2 thermalright HR-05 for ( S & N ) bridge

http://www4.0zz0.com/2007/03/23/20/93066988.jpg

and i placed 60mm on both

and i placed them on the mobo , after removing the stuck heatsink

i dont know why cpu-z cant read the correct Vcore volt

any way this is the reading from everest

My E6600 is also week 32B. I can do 3.6 at 1.35v, 3.7 at 1.45v (Orthos blend) and 3.82 at 1.5v. (small ffts). They seem to be nice low voltage clockers.

slim142
03-27-2007, 01:31 PM

Will do this modification to my Striker Extreme since everytime I lower the NB voltage, I get more stability and longer testing time with Orthos.

Too bad I will have to get rid of that pretty heatsink roller coaster :P

Hey Koc, with what are you cooling your CPU? Also, what are your idle temps and load temps at 3.6Ghz? what about 3.7Ghz?

How about the temps of the NB? what are the temps with the new heatsinks did you measure them?

Well :

I have Big Typhoon , and its very good , but if you want better heatsink take
Thermalright Ultra -120 , or wait for Thermalright Ultra -120 Extreme

40 - 48 , the room temperature 30 C ( without AC )

31 - 37 , the room temp. 20 ( with AC )

About the NB, i didnt have programe to measure the temp.

but with motherbord heatsink , its become hot to the point that i can not touch it more than 3 seconds , and i think its over 75 C

However with HR-05 heatsink when i touch it , its only warm and i dont fell that its hot even

After doing this mod, still cannot boot at 400mhz FSB, but I can now do it at 375Mhz with 1.42500v in BIOS (before only 355mhz)

In fact the test ( orthos ) last for more than 3 hours and i close it manualy

and i believe that i achive a stable overclock at 3.6 MHz





I don't believe 3 hours is long enough to be certain that you are stable.

I have run orthos at 11+ hours on cpu stress test, and that was fine.'

Blend test, my ram couldn't handle 6+ hours, i figured that was stable enough for daily use.

I started playing some games for a few hours straight, comp starting acting crazy on me, kept rebooting randomly, other programs started working inproperly, got some memory errors, so i dropped down the overclocking and haven't had any problems.

Yesterday i raised the overclock again, same thing happened with the rebooting and problems.

So i am waiting for my g.skill to come in tomorrow, then ill be able to overclock to where i want.

but you should make sure you are stable for sure, 8+ hours on blend test, and even that may have the same problems since it might fail orthos after 8 hours.

04-08-2007, 10:57 AM
I use stress test and test the memory seperately but then Im not using alot of vdimm with it and heat isnt an issue there. Blend test is easier on the cpu overall isnt it.
If a rig runs orthos for 10 seconds even I find it works fine in games and everywhere else, so long as the memory is 100% ok
Of course if you then clock it even more after that then it starts to affect other apps apart from orthos

Maybe 3 or 4 hours Not enough to say that the system is stable

If fact overclocking some times acting wierd i remember that i oveclocked my system and after playing games i shotdown my system normaly , but when i try to boot my system the other day , the computer wont boot until i lower the CPU FSB

if fact i overclocked my system to 3.7MHz with 1,47 Vcore in bios, work for 3 to 5 hours daily for playing games and some other things , and now more than three weeks never had problem and every thing is perfect
ِAnd there is no need for Orthos test, as long as everything fine :) :)
