Ehhhh.... 1.31V only at 2.85 Ghz is not bad. And when did 50C load become a problem? Your ship is made to handle 64C max if I'm not mistaken. :rolleyes:Quote:

So while at stock speeds you might be able to run at 64c, if i were priming at 3 Ghz and somehow the temp got to 64c, it would immiately crash i am sure, or at least error out of every major app running.
Makes sense, but why 50C and not 45 or 55...still headroom there.Quote:

Thanks
Sure
1.312 = default votlage settings
1.360 = 1.35 + 104%
1.408 = 1.40 + 104%
1.424 = 1.425 + 104%
1.452 = 1.450 + 104%
1.488 = 1.475 + 104%
if you meant what the bios says for voltage, then, it's usually just a little bit more than what CPUZ says.
ebay - 170 0550 vpmw - 625$:eek:

Is that expensive? That's roughly how much they are from eStores here in the UK. . .Quote:

I run daily at 2900mhz on air, it is a sweet chip. Too bad I am going yonah... gotta wait for motherboards to come out.
Im sure if I had a nice water setup, I could pump 1.65vcore and hit 3200+ I have no problems booting at 3200... just core0 isnt stable.
Burning in helped a LOT for me. Just make sure you burn in both cores at the same time. CPU burn core0 on normal, prime95 core1 is what I did.
good business:clap: grat:)Quote:

Seems like a good idea. I'll try to keep her burning. Watercooling is finally assembled too ;)

what are you hoping to do get core0 to work at 3.o ghz..so are you running cpu burn on core0 at 3ghz and prime 95 on core1Quote:

I dont know why temps are so bad, but this is on watercooling, and on air i needed 1.48volts, now 1.42v to run 3.0 Ghz dual sp2004

Pretty similar to Rufus' chip isn't it?

man u guys are making me so jealous :p:
I was satisfied with 2.8Ghz, but now i want more, so many peeps hitting such sweet clocks. Just a few comments in this thread I found quite funny.
:p: dude, 1.31v, 2.8Ghz, not bad; not bad you say, man tht is amazing :slobber: Absolute_0 is on air-cooling. I really cant understand your commet abt it being not bad :p:. Oh and welcome to the forums :DQuote:

Hey - watercooled results are the post above yours
Dont know why it was showing 46, performed like 43 or something, maybe temp sensor is Fd up.
Good job Absolute_0, nice to see the WC helped with the 3Ghz stability! Are you going to throw it under the phase in your sig?
Nope because CCB1E is gonna coldbug like crazy.
Absolute_0 ..what WC do you use?
I'm considering going water one of theese days, not as much for OC'ing as for getting that quiet working environment.
...a hefty OC will not hurt though ;)
doh, i should have made myself clear, i was talking abt the 165'sQuote:

Ok first of all my WC is in sig
MCP600/TDX/120.2 heatercore
As for overclocking on water versus air. Well my 170 needed 1.48v on air to do 3 Ghz now on water it's doing the same on 1.42.
On aircooling my 165s walled up around 2.9 Ghz so i'm guessing with watercooling and more volts they'd do 2.9+ maybe 2.95 if they were reaally pushed. I'll test them out later, too much funw ith the 170.
As for plain comparing 165 and 170, on the 170 the cores seem a little more balanced, on 165 core1 is insanely stronger, on 170 core1 is just a little stronger.
That's interesting?Quote:

Because the chip is slightly cooler = law of physics :DQuote:
