you kidding right?:ROTF::rofl: you slap us in the face with 3.6ghz, then you ask us how to get high clocks stable when you should be telling us how you did it:yepp:Quote:

even when I drop my ram divider down to 800 the highest I got was 222
well since 64 bit is giving me I crappy clock.
I think I'm going to get a another windows 32 bit XP/or Vista though.
I'm leaning towards vista (crossfire X) I
t will be on it's own hard drive might get two or three drives.
yup I just went back to XP I lost about 150mhz going from xp to Vista 32 with aditional stability problems i tested it for 2 months. Ill reinstall it again in a few months.Quote:

150mhz isn't bad, 64 bit I could be losing about 400mhz maybe more. since I you ne4ed more volts for it.Quote:

Cinebench runs faster LOL...I know I have no real need for it personally, i just lik to see what differs when benching...i primarily use my XP 32bit. Although i do use the Vista 32 Home premium for my multimedia..it is on three systems. 2 are primary TV boxes. Never tried Vista 64. I have harder times getting stable OCs in Vist 32 then my Win XP 64..Quote:

Congrats man, great buy.Quote:

What Chip were you running before? Glad to here you trying out a Phenom. This is the place to be, if help is what you need. I can get 3.0 no ACC stock v's. But anything else I found needs some ACC help and more voltage. Good luck and keep us posted...:up:Quote:

cool man. The deneb I think is going to be great IMO. I'm glad you're tying out AMD and once you get your Xigmatek keep us posted. We are here to help. What are your temps right now at stock v's? Maybe you can kick up the vcore a bit and stabilize at a higher clock with the stock cooler.Quote:

On stock cooler I did what I am now on water, no problem. Of course water runs lot cooler in my rig.
I am at 3.2 GHz for daily settings.
You're probably at a much cooler location that am I, getting about 51c* idle and 60c*+ on load with stock cooler at stock settingsQuote:

what buggy OS ?.....Quote:

anyways Grid seem put a huge load in 64 bit. when playing that game I've gotten higher temps then using core damage lol
64 bit can find an unstable overclock much quicker.
I have to agree with you on GRID. Why? I dont know, but it does put a heck of load on my rig under 64bitQuote:

While I wait for my heatsink I decided to try and atleast get the bus/ram where I want it in terms of overclock and Im having a hell of a time doing so. Anything past about 204 on the bus no matter what HT link speed I use results in no post.
Is phenom really touchy as far as high capacity ram is concerned because Im getting nowhere with this thing.
I dunno,.. i hit a 240 HT wall. What are the other settings...?Quote:
