I tried for 3.5 last night but could not reach it. I can boot into windows and run Super Pi with no problem. Prime fails almost instantly. The ambient temps are pretty high right now so i may need to hold off until it cools off a bit. I like to keep it under 60C under load which i am gettting very close to with 3.4ghz @ 1.5v. Looks like i didn't get a 'gem' but it seems to be better then average.:)Quote:

Well mine got 66-68 (68 in hot room).
I think a CPU will crash (I mean by this wasted itselfs ;)) When running all the way at 90-95. That's what I think :). However even when I think I'm wrong, I never would keep it going "above 70´s.
I got this Result right now on the Stock Cooler .

Testing to see if Orthos Stable now. Can't get it to POST past 1950 FSB though. Still working on it. Temps under load 45~48, ambient 78F.
E6320, Abit IP35-E, Big Typhoon (with 120mm x 38mm medium speed Panaflo), and Kingston DDR2 800 ValueRAM. RAM good up to 580MHz @ 2.1Vdimm. Vcore @ 1.5, Vsouthbridge @ 1.55, Vnorthbridge @ 1.29, VTT @ default. Chip stable at 488MHz FSB (FSB wall around 495MHz). Coretemp reports 85C Tjunction. Maximum core temperature is 68C with 82F room.
Wow, everyone's E6320 OC god-like, except mine! ;(
Did you get your higher than 3.0Ghz? Some reviewers on websites, and some users (like my unlucky E5420 #2) can't even reach 3.0Ghz.Quote:

And we all know that even at 2.4 Ghz Core2Duo is already much faster than recommended for many games and programs.
I have incredible trouble reaching 2,5GHz stable :(Quote:

i'm having same issue with the E6420 chip.
3.2ghz seems my limit. L702C560 stepping, on FuZion and g/byte's N680SLI-DQ6 board, F5b bios.
can boot and superpi at 500x6 (3ghz), but get it over 3.2ghz (500x7 or 415x8) and it dies. i guess 3.2 aint toooo bad tho.
I have a thread about this issue here:Quote:

3.2 seems to be my top (1.425v) w/o really pushing some volts. 400FSBx9, and the rig is running happily!Quote:

450 FSB (1.50 Vcore) ran dual Orthos stable about 5 hours last night, but I noticed a BSOD recovery message in Windows when I was away from the computer for a while, so I pulled back the settings a bit.Quote:

I don't like the high temps 24/7, so I'm going to test stability with SpeedStep and/or C1E enabled. I have a saved OC profile at 400 FSB that sits about 48C under load if I can't find some heat/energy savings through those settings at idle.
The U120X is lapped, but IHS is not, so if I get the motivation to dismantle things again, I could probably gain a few c's and possibly some more FSB.
E6420 batch# L649G decieded to stop orthos,to hot of a day about 29 degrees in room. Will try when its cooler and lowering vcore curently 1.50 actual.
I will run prime95 for 10 hours but I had it running yesterday for a few hours on my E6420 which was running at 3.5ghz (500*7) with 1.43V and it had no errors. Chip stays at 58C with TT Ultra 120 extreme
False... Any 'game' system with 8800 / 2900 series. Need maxed out CPU's talking about 3.5/4 or even more to feed...Quote:

In my case It's 1.86 Ghz to 3.15 with 1950 pro There is absolutely no difference in gaming @ 1.8 ghz or 3.2. The games run good or bad anyway MHZ would'nt change it to make it feel comfortable.
Games like Vegas wouldn't even do 20 fps @ 3.28 Ghz XD. (all high speed parts even 2GB)
8800/2900 dont need 3.5-4Ghz. Its usually limitation of game design. If CPU is busy doing software audio, software physics, and some stupid game AI that eats up millions of cycles but not all too bright, well that certainly interrupts with ability to properly feed GPU next batches.Quote:

In this case, any 2Ghz CPU + high end ASIC like X1900XTX is ok. On othe other hand RTS, with hundreds of units, or flight simulator, you never get 100fps, and its not that crucial to get very high frame rate, and game is very CPU demanding. Yeah, 4GHz C2D would be nice here, but thats only ~30% faster than 3Ghz. 10fps vs 13fps. Get my point?
Unlike GPU world where todays ASIC compared to 3 years ago is like 20x faster.
**Update** from Stock Cooler to Infinity... Only counts 58 Mhz on this board.

Scythe Infinity @ P5N-E SLI (No money left for 680I)
None south bridge heatsink :shrug:.
Pretty Bad cool design Which is a shame!
About 10-13 Degrees cooler than stock. Here it Does 59/60 All the way stressed with Orthos But most time 59. Orthos Rock stable.
Bad results for me :(. Damn so :(.
I go get Q6600 very soon price is just 230 dollar here it dropping insanely every 2 weeks
I can fairly say 460 is FSB wall for the P5N-E SLI
cheers !
I've already read some forums here , but i can't find any solution for my
I run 6420 [b2] on gb p965ds3 board
Anything above : 430x7 or 380x8 can't boot , on any voltage [@bios : 1,55 max on core and + 0.3 on fsb & nb and 2.2 on my pdp llk rams...
I'll get more details about CPU specs , when I get home ....
edit : I bought AC Freezer in order to make some more on this ...
my CPU identification : L652b309
Any help here ?
Nice little chip and pulled off a 100% oc under phase...

nice little chip indeed :D
What kinda volts and cooling you need to reach that?
bwha just some dryice, solid pot and 1.6V :DQuote:

I've got my E6320 running 100% stable at 3.5GHz now (501 FSB), don't have much results or anything, but a couple of tests on 3.4GHz - didn't run any tests on my current clock yet:

I'm pretty happy with this clock. Take a budget chip and turn it into a killer chip ;)
