I'd say that's a little high for water! What block and pump are you using ...?
i am using everything that come with the thermaltake bigwater 735. a thermaltake aquabay M2 and a Swiftech MCR220-QP Radiator as my 2 other radiators in a lian li pc a71
there a couple air coolers that do better the the Big Water setup...I saw a review somewhere comparing them.. they had temp results etc.. I'll see if I can find the link I looked at..
Did you guys see there is going to be one more revision to the 65nm Phenom? Part of AMD's Continuous Transistor Improvement, or CTI. Probably Fall time..
That is interesting, wonder what will change?Quote:

I cannot for the life of me figure out why it was necessary to up the voltage unless the chip has a sweet spot as far as temps are concerned. Anyone else have any ideas.
Hi
Ben Brown with the new case you are running dose it have more caes fan than before ? If yes maybe the fans are taking volts way from the cpu some how and Putting a biger load on the PS .
Hi
Well that the only thing i could think of that you change for one case to the other.The 9850be suck down juice like a pig at stock
clocks let alone when you over clock it. You take that and the 3 video cards that you are running that thing under load is going to be a power hog. Maybe adding the fans and if you got them plug into the motherboard was was all it took to change the power blance on
the board . Grats on the 3dmark-06 score that a great score for a all AMD rig.
Well you may just be on to something.Quote:

So I then unhooked three fans and left the case open with a fan blowing on it to keep it cool and it completed a bench (another 17k+ run :) ).
So you must be correct about the power supply not having enough juice to run everything. Man I thought when building this system that 750W would be enough. Anyway I took my Thermaltake 450W out of my soon to be P4 folding rig and hooked it up to 1 of the video cards and two case fans. I will try and run 3DMark06 tonight and see what happens.
I need to see if I can find the maximum wattage for those cards to see if I can use the 450W PS to run all three, probably not though.
Thanks for the idea!
Hi
Ben Brown well dont feel bad dude i got a new power supply in my rig to and it a 750w ps also. In fact it has the same stats as yours
has and i got 3 case fan and cpu fan running off the mother board . It to is having trouble staying stable at 2.81 ghz . I dont
think it the 12v rails that are the trouble but the 5v rail that making the trouble . So to test what i think is wrong i try some things to night . I mover around the PCIe line on the video cards to see if useing the other one change how the stablely in the board was(i have 4 line to pick from ) i change over to the 2 6+2 PCIe line to run the 2 video cards and the hole rig way more unstable was crashing at
2.81ghz at stock v , 1.31, 1.32v before it would run stable for a long time at thoughts volts setting before . So i said screw this pull the 750w ps out ,now it only has a 28A 5 volt rail with a told of 180w for the 3.3 + 5v combine . I put my 600w ps back in it has a
55A 5 volt rail and the tag on the ps says 3.3v 30A + 5v 55A combine 320w .I power the rig back up at 2.81 ghz running stock volts
no crashing now for a couple hours going to take it to work tomarow run strest test and some other stuff for 8 hours at work see what happens.I thinking the 5v rail in the 750 ps can not handle the 9850be cpu over clock. I was talking with my boss down at work and
he think the same thing so we see what happens.
Well I hooked up another power supply to the pc last night and used it to run one of the three video cards and two case fans. I was able to push the phenom farther (3.3, 3.1, 2.9, 3.2 and 1.504 vcore) than I have before and it ran three 3DMark06 runs in a row. It did crash on the fourth test when I tried to up my video card clocks higher so I may try to hook up another video card to the extra PSU to see if there is still too much of a power draw or not.
Thanks for the help merkk1. Now I just need to find a god load balance for the two power supplies and pencil mod my video cards for more juice and break 18k. WOOHOO!!
Hi
Glad i was able to help and in helping you it made me rethink what i was going on on my pc and i was able to help my self so it was all good all the way around . The 600w PS is running everythink like a top the phenom clock at 2.81 stock volts ,2 HIS 3850 in crossfire,2 WD hard drives in raid-0, X-FI sound card ,4 gigs of DDR2-800 ,3 case fans one cpu fan,floppy and the LG dvd burner.Now what dose
make me mad is that new 750w ps i pay for can not do the same thing . I need to realy think over the replacement PW this time around . What every one i pick going to make sure it has at lease 250w on the combine 3.3v + 5v line because that ready what
is diff. form 750w ps . (600w got 30A 3.3v + 55A 5v for combine 320w , 750w 30A3.3v + 28A 5v for a combine 180w) .
I just got thinking today about how the nb has been clocking for most people. It seems to clock like the good old clawhammers and newcastles. My newcastle 3200+ only clocked from 2.2 up to 2.5 to benchmark, 2.4 stable. My NB clocks from 2.0 to 2.5 benchable, 2.42 stable. Not sure it really means anything, just my random thought of the day.
And for stable I'm talking load stable with rosetta/WCG running for 8 hours.
I noticed that too. Thanks for reminding me there was something else I'm remebering that may be important.Quote:

Any who.. Anyone notice the Phenom 9950 is coming soon.. after the launch of HD 4870. The Phenom 9950 is suppose to have a stock clock of 2.66ghz.. Strange. I wonder how its clocked? I wonder if the 9950 will have the new revision AMD was planning for the Agena core. I am eager to see.
it should be interesting what the 9950 can do but then if it does come out with a 10x266 or something along those lines that would give such a wierd HT link speed. The best i can get my 9850 to is 13.5, 13, 13, 12 @ 223HT. volage is an issue but anything after 1.387Vcore does nothing anything over 1.5vcore the system wont boot. anything over 2300MHZ on the northbridge the system crashes after loading vista. closest have have gotten to stable NB is 2200. he is a pic of how my system crashes everytime
http://img527.imageshack.us/img527/6...e017qo9.th.jpg
Calcifer, your NB may be a little too high...
But everytime my machine crashes like that it's cause my HT Link is too high.. :D
Lower the HT Multi by 1 and see if that fixes your problem, I get the feeling it might... ;)
Here are my settings Dave. HT clock 233, CPU multis 13.5, 13, 13, 12. CPU Vcore 1.387 (1.4 bios) NB multi 10, NB voltage 1.3V, HT multi 8, HT voltage 1.4V, Ram 932 5-5-5-18 2.0V GANGED (Crashes over 1000mhz). i lowered the ht multi cause i think tony got better overclocking with it at a lower speed. have tried down to a multi of 5 and doesn't make a diffence for me. the wierd thing is is that some time i can boot up from bios with all cores at 2.8Ghz be fine reboot to try some more and it wont make it to vista unles i take it back to defualt. i have pulled all my ram out and tried it with all the sticks 1 at a time and that doesn't change a thing... Overclocking phenom kills my inner child
If your vDIMM is 2.0v or higher you might want to nudge the Mem vDDQ a little. My RAM runs 2.1v (stock) and I couldn't run 200x15 until I upped the Mem vDDQ to 1.9v+ ...
how do i do that? there isn't an option in the bios to up it and if i change any voltage in AOD my comp freezes up. would it be called something special in the bios?
It's not in my BIOS either - AFAIK it's only accessible through AOD ...Quote:

Seems my 1066 spd is working well :)
its actually hidden in the DFI bios along with VTT, I may ask they unhide it if it would add stabilityQuote:

It seemed to resolve the stability problems I was having. Before raising the Mem vDDQ I could get 3.0 GHz but only by running 188x16. Now 200x15 has been crunching 24/7 for over a week. :)Quote:

i have been playing around more so with my phenom still and now it seems alot more stable at 13, 13, 13, 12 @224 but when it does freeze now i can still move my cursor around but nothing happens when i click. nothing works not alt, ctrl, del. any ideas what could cause that?
I had the same... I couldnt be arsed and left it as instability. Running stock now untill some good boards with good BIOS's and lay-outs come out.Quote:

as i said quietice everytime i touch any volage in aod it freezes the computer. i miss the good ol days of fulll bios clocking and not relying on a program. and merkk1 if you refering to me i have a thermaltake 1200W (needed it for my 2 2900xt's). thanks for the help thus far guys
Calcifer, it may not matter on your rig anyway - that's why I asked about your vDIMM. I haven't seen anything suggesting a low vDIMM would cause an issue but mine runs 2.1v stock (DDR2-800). I think maybe there's too much voltage difference when the vDIMM is that high since the default vDDQ is 1.8v (same as default DDR2 vDIMM).
If you are running a high vDIMM you might try the opposite approach by turning down the vDIMM and loosening up the timings to make it work. Can't hurt to give it a shot ...
Interesting, but if this would be true for my PSU I would be quite pissy though! It's a good brand, I use a DMM to measure Voltages and they were all very good and solid. 12.04V and 4.99V. I dont think that I ever had such a PSU.Quote:

Hi
Up-date i put my 750w PS (xigmatek-mc751 750w) back in last night . I change how i had some of the lines plug into the PS (it modular cabling) and add a line to it to cut down on how much load
is on all the lines and now it running my rig stable at 2.81 like the 600w PS was .Rammateiner it
mite be worth a try if you got a spair PS to give it a try just to see what happens.
This is the Reason why I wont buy anything but Single Rail Power Supplies:)
Borther Esau
You call it my friend the next PS for me will be a single raid PS in fact over the week end i almost got
the one you have but told my self to give the Xigmatek one more try .
i have a question with prime95. when running the 4 threads in it does thread 1 stress core 1? thread 2 stress core 2 and so on? because i know core 1, 2, 3 are stable at over 2.9 but core 4 gets issues at 2675mhz and when puching it further and then running prime for stablity running all cores at 12@224 they all fail in about 3 seconds. any ideas. and would i be better off running a tri core at over 2.9 or sunning it as a quad with 3 cores at 2.9 and 1 at 2.67? there is an option in the asus bios to disable cores. thanks.
and QuietIce i have my ram at 374mhz at 1.8V 5-5-5-18 so having a higher Vdimm shouldn't be an issue now if it was in the first place

Guess your RAM just doesn't like low voltage. That's too bad, I thought it might work for you ... :(
they are corsair TWIN2X2048-6400C4DHX which defualt at 2.1V. might go get a pack or 2x2gig ocz like tony's as they seem to be very impressive

I updated the bios on my MSI K9A2 Platinum last night. I had to do so on its schedule instead of mine since it quit booting from my RAID controller after putting in an Intel PRO/100+ NIC. Even after removing the NIC the system still wouldn't boot properly.
Updated from the late January build to the March build and it started working again. My power and reset buttons still don't behave properly. I still have to clear CMOS before being able to cold boot about half the time, too.
Anyone else have this issue on the K9A2 v1? I've not been brave enough to try the trace masking trick yet on my RAID controller since it's so dern expensive.
I haven't had any booting issues on my K9A2 PlatinumQuote:

Hi
PLA123 The best set-up i could come up with using the Xigmatek power supply is.
Put the 2 PCIe 6pin modular cables into the power supply use them to run the video cards with .
put one SATA modular cable into the plug closest to the out side edge of the case of the power supply. I ran my 2 hard drives off that line .
put one molex modular cable into the plug closest to the out side edge of the case of power supply. I ran my DVD burner and floppy off that line.
Put one modular molex cable into the plug in the middle of the power supply . I ran a floppy plug off that line to power to the mother board 2 4pin flopply plugs per DFI manual .It adds more power to the mother board to help with the stably of the board.
that set-up ran the most stable for me .Now if i use the 2 to PCIe 6+2 line to power the video cards my rig would crash 2 to 3 mins after i log into vista running a 2.81 ghz.
Pla123
So you know i have RMA my Xigmatek power supply i had up to 30 day and the power supply was not going to be able to run 3 video cards in rig and be able to keep it running stable and that what i got it for in the frist place. It could be the one i got was just a bad
power supply and that your will run your rig troulbe free. I got a PC POWER & COOLING 750w silencer crossfire edition power supply.
It has ran my rig over clock at 2.81 trouble free with no crashing at stock volts so ( about 7 hours run time so far) we how it goses .
Here is my setup, i am running it at 3200Mhz. 16x200mhz. Vcore 1.4v.
http://screenshot-program.com/uplae1...6/Screen_2.jpg
It have been running for 7 hours.
I will do it with orthos too.

I just received a week 11 9850 for a friend's machine and I've noticed something. No messed up corners! It looks like they took a fine grinder all around the edge on the heat spreader. :)
Although I didnt have lot of problems with the current grinding on Phenoms, good to know and thx for letting us know! Better grinding is of course always better.Quote:

Im happy I waited with buying another Phenom. The longer I wait, the better OC results I see on the net. And this news is only better:D
Overall, it looked like the edges weren't as tall as the middle. Everything from about 4mm and in was level.
It is like this picture of a week 10 X4 and a brisbane (which is like the week 11):

You guys think a D-Tek WhiteWater would be enough to keep this cool with a decent overclock, with a good pump and rad????
Just bought an Asus 3850 and OCZ Reaper HPC 1066 ram. If i run it at 1066, my system hangs after login. I am not a timing guy and have no idea what to set manually in the bios on my K9A2 Platinum. If I set it to auto, it runs at 667mhz. And the system runs great. My CPU score dropped almost 700 points14000 on 3dmark06 but the ram is slowwww. CPU is 2.9ghz 2000 NB. Any help would be great..:D
Are you running 14.5x200 for the CPU? If so, RAM should be running 1066 (533x2) ... strange. You may have to manually adjust the vDIMM ...Quote:

If your familiar with the 1.1B3 Bios and P-States you should be able to lower your NB/IMC multi to ~8 (HT Multi to 7) and clock your HT Ref up to 266 and get the ram up to 1066 speeds...
The 1.4 Bios is actually VERY stable, but I doubt you would be able to hit HT/266 due to the fact that your locked into 10x NB. Most 9850's won't handle a 2660 NB/IMC.. ;)
Heres a ss of what I've been using for the last week and it has proven to be VERY stable with the Ram at 1076. :D

Making me resurect my torture rack. :rofl:

Nice clocks Tony :D
I seen fans like that in my local electronics store (Sayal). How much air does that thing move?Quote:

There brand name is Fasco, but thats about all I know about them...
Well, I have the timings figured out.. I also did not have to do any HTT changes. It is all multi. I found a problem with AOD's Default config file. I modified it and the system is stayble. I lost my 2200mhz NB but I will fiddle with that later. I now need to to see if I can get AOD to allow me to get my over clock back up.
Edit... 2200mhz NB back up. Now awaiting the 750 SB boards to roll out and see if I can squeek more out of this chip. Here is my new 3DMark06 score
I still read the thread guys, just really busy as usual but I have not given up on AMD, NO WAY ;)
Went over to DFI, they have a nice 790GX board on show, it is DK though but is fully featured. I asked Jarry if they could increase the VRM to 6 phase and the Ram VRM to 2 phase to help with 8GB 1066, he said he would look into it but would not promise, the board already works quite well and I have been promised a sample to promote and test...stay tuned ;)
Overall wandering round all the motherboard vendors stands there does look to be a slew of nice GX boards coming real soon, remember this chipset should allow some higher phenom OC's so the task will start all over again with them.
so far the most i can achieve is 2.9GHZ, 14.5x200, 1066 unganged, 2x2GB dual channel with ~1.34Vcore, dfi m2r. i do need to get some cooling on the PWM, as it approaches ~70c, and on the chipset (aproaches ~60-65c), but doubt that is hindering the overclock to 3ghz.
ive also noticed that after numerous attempts of pushing up and locking up, the board remembers some bad settings of trying to push up, and i must ezclear it and or reflash to clear, in order to be restable at 2.9GHZ (ive only tested occt mixed 2 hours which passes ok; ill go for more once i complete testing).
i will now try to lower multi, and up the HTT, to see if i can get past 2.9. then i will try async multi clocking to see which core(s) are holding me back.
this thing cooks for sure, even on pretty good water, when approaching the 1.35Vcore mark.
i wanted 3GHZ sync, but that's not happening. ah well. the 3GHZ has been evading me since A64! at least i moved on to am2+, and i can pop in a 45nm once that's available and in good standing.
I can get over 2.9 but only if i set cores independently. I have to keep 2 cores @ 2.9. I had 3.3 core 0 & 1, with cores 2 & 3 @ 2.9 1.43v. I am curious about this new SB 750. If those boards do infact work better, I might have to upgrade. Now on another note... I have been able to hit 2.7 stock voltage on the 9600 on the Saphire 780g board. I had to have a good voltage bumb to hit 2.7 on the 9600 on the MSI. I am going to try higher today on the 9600.Quote:

well I decided to try a different approach to my OCing. I was going to post a CPU-z screenshot, but Ipowerweb's hosting is down,hech, their whole web site is down. So anyways,...I went into bios and jumped from 200 to 239HTT. I gave er' 1.37v which landed me at 2.988ghz. This isn't anything exciting, but it also has a 2390mhz NB and 2390mhz HTT. And she apears to run. I am going to try a run of 3dmark06 and a lil prime just to see how see does. I was then going to try the 9850 on the Sapphire 780g board since it, as of now, has the 9600 running 2.8. Something about that board.. I need to count the FETs and see what it has in Power.. I might check the web and see if I can find out as well. The board has Tall heatsinks on everything. And runs cool. I through a 3850 and Hibrid X-fire'd the thing.
Edit: It appears it is 3 phase. Don't think I will stick the Phenom 9850 on it yet. I will search the web and see if I can verify.
i have one of those boards from asus with 780 chip m3a h-hdmi, its the only one with additional VRM but the oc is just impossible, the boards are just created for cheap builds . my 9850be does 2800 on msi k9a2 plat and 3200 for my 5000be by changing only multi with default vcore daily use. On the asus i am not able to increase the 9850 at all and the 5000be can only hit 3000.Quote:

I'm getting close to the 1ghz barrier on my 9600. I posted the pic in the M3A32-MVP thread, but I think it'll get more views here.

Memory isn't stable at all. 3DM06 locks up about 500 frames into test 1, Blend just restarts the computer at that setting. I'm doing 11.5x262 overnight blend to work my way up to 3.1ghz stable. I need 287htt to get a full 1ghz oc, this board definitely won't do it cause the system doesn't boot at these htt settings unless the 800mhz divider is set. I think 800mhz for a locked multi phenom is pretty good though.
Abit boards I had time on;
AN78GS was the best overclocking motherboard with the Nvidia chipset. It reached a significantly higher HT speed. 11,200 stock 2K1, 12,500 overclocked to 3Ghz, this mobo also reached 3.25Ghz on an 9850BE.
AS78H was the highest performing onboard graphics 12,300 stock 2K1 and 13,200 overclocked to 2.88Ghz
AX78 alreached 240HT speeds and maxed out the 9750 phenom at 2.88Ghz, lacking onboard graphics I used an 8800Ultra and scored 34K on 2K1 with lod 0, this board was the poorest performer of the bunch.
All boards above should not be "game" nor was graphics "smooth" if fact, horrid stuttering with an 8800 Ultra surprised me. Granted these are budget boards but surely not acceptable for "smooth" gaming.
If you consider very low FPS (cpu overclocked 480Mhz+) in high detail scenes smoother then ok, you win. I can now remember the last time I seen single digit FPS from an 8800 Ultra in 2k1.
I tried LN2 on a few cores, none would go sub zero. Please be aware if the chipsets/models used, they are not the top end.
what was the cut off temp before it would stop posting?Quote:
