:D. Finally broke 2Ghz with my XP1600. I got my watercooling stuff all hooked up finally, and ran last night. My plan was to get 2, but I managed a little better than that. :).

a 666 mhz o/c is good... er... well... you get what I mean. :D

3Dmark is not stable at anything over 1.84. This was the same limit with my air cooling, so it's somthing else holding me back. My guess is maybe the ram, or the video card. I can run prime95 at 2ghz for hours no problem, but 3Dmarks just woops me.

nice!:toast:

you may wanna play around with agp settings, disable all of them and try again. this just might be your video crappage caused by agp related stuff.

Wicked OC dude!

When you say 3DMark doesn't work, what happens? Does it crash back to desktop or just lock?

I'm cooling it with -10C chilled water and an innovatek CPU block. Temps at 2ghz, which is what it's been running all night at +4C on the CPU with Prime95 on. :). This is with 2.2 volts running through it too. :).

3Dmarks either will just go to a black screen, or start loading, then just hard lock. All I see is black or the very start or a load screen. It just stays like that untill I reboot.

These XP1600's are just plain incredible. :)

Oh yea. I love this thing. Almost 700 mhz overclock is amazing. I wonder... has anyone gotten 1000 mhz overclock from one?
