I want to see what this can do under water or LN2 just cause lol
regarding the average temp all over (rainy season) Thailand @35°, it would be something like very difficult to verify the 39° @ ~ 1.7Vcore @air, especially during SuperPi and other benches are running :p:
sometimes its a lucky moment to touch alt+print and saving screens before getting black screen going concern that torture for the chip........:D
Thailand 30-35C Yes ,But I bench in air condition room, ambient 20-22C.

Can you see my coretemp? 39C sir.
I bench in air condition room, ambient 20-22C, Ultra120EX W/Double Fan ~4000RPM & MX-2 Thermal compound.
I don't want you to believe me as long as you can try it.:D
so basically this wont be a guaranteed 4.0ghz overclock for a relative n00b like me right? should i spend a bit more for the e7200?
setup:
ASUS P5Q PRO
E5200 / Noctua NH-U12P
2x 1GB ADATA EE 800+
HDD 640GB WD Caviar
CORSAIR VX450
Question: What is the max reasonable Vcore for 24/7 system?
what are your memory settings
many people can't get high fsb with these chips on a mobo capable of doing 500+ fsb
i'm just now getting to 300 on mine
thanks for your replies
well basically i'm looking for a cheap processor to start with since this is going to be my first time ocing with lga775 (done it with 478,939,AM2 though)..i'm going to get a dfi lp ut p35. i didn't really mean a 'guaranteed' 4ghz OC..i'm looking at something that does 4ghz @ 1.4v or less on a sub $120 processor (i've seen a lot of guys do 4ghz on e7200 @ that voltage). btw i'm talking about cpu-z voltage..so prolly a bit higher when i set it in the bios
I have problem with booting into windows.
Everytime i set 1.435Vcore+ in bios, my windows wont boot (allways freez at loading screen). And one time i had to reinstal the whole system, that was when i tryed to set 1.5Vcore in bios.... any advice ?
version of bios 1004.
here are pictures of my bios setings
:shrug::shrug::shrug:
You have to many and too high voltages:up: Probably because E5200 is a 45nm chip is very sensible to high voltages. And P5Q-PRO also is.
1.90 PLL You can burn your chip didn't you read on forum?
At me NB stable voltage is 1.34, 1.36 .
You can also update your bios with a moddes one m1306, m1307 from Ket.
I give you an example :up:
E2140 Fsb 390*8=3120MHz
FSB STRAPP AUTO
RAM= 1040MHZ 5-5-5-5 2T(depends on ram)
Vcore=1.362
NB= 1.36
VTT=AUTO
GTLREF=AUTO
PLL=AUTO
SB =AUTO
SATA V = AUTO
DDR VOlTAGE= 2.3V( A-data 800 EE D9).
From what i've read P5Q-PRO is more stable with low voltages, at high voltages is becoming unstable.
Try now something like this with a FSB 320 FOR E5200.:up: for that i've seen results with 1.392 vcore.
With fsb 320 you will have 4GHZ.
I have tryed as you say. I can boot now at 1.435Vcore 3800Mhz, but its unstable in Orthos :(. What V should i increasd ? Ram is on 800Mhz
After how much time errors appear?Quote:

E5200 is a 45Nm, you can't boot (even post)with 1.4?
If you run more than 10min is good you don't must change many things.
What bios do you have, try a bios from Ket.
I saw that for some Cpu, that with a mbios worked with a lower voltage at same frequency.:up: (some quads on Deluxe).
And thry with rams on other frequency(divizor)
A strange thing on my P5Q-Pro is that with frequency described on last post, is stable with ram at 1040, but it's not stable with ram on lower at 1003 !:down:
Try another ram frequency , try VTT 1.24, 1.26, 1.28(with these voltages i can run stable at fsb 398 but my rams do errors at 1060+, and Cpu won't boot more than 400fsb so i've prefered to stay on VTT auto and 390FSB)
It's don't worth for an E2140. I will buy soon a E8500 E0.
Another thing is to respect voltage default for Ram . Example: for 800Mhz i put from bios 2.1 for my A-DATA , may be you have, if not put the voltage specified to rams for 800MHZ, don't let on Auto:up:
GOOD LUCK :up:
i think i found out why i am unable to go higher...
i dll new prime95 and than saw it...one of my core is holding me back :mad:
is there any option on how to disable one core ?
You can't "disable a core":D. I still think that 1.43V is too much for Cpu, mine E2140 becomes unstable at 3120MHZ if i co upper than 1.39.
Another thing Load Line Calibration(LLC) is enable at you?
If not you shoud enable it brings Vdroope muc lower and stability !
At 1.368 voltage with you reach 3.6GHZ, you can't go futher with that settings ?:up: Try to tweak some voltage settings(NB(1.34, 1.36),ETC)
Also a thing from mine , I have freeze moments if i use vtt voltage when Nb is more than 1.32. Another setting stable at me( VTT 1.28, NB 1.24) rest are same as in upper post:up:
No what i can say, more than 4GHZ don't make hopes :yepp:
what about GTL? how should i tweak this one ? i totally dont understand this ... x0.64 ...
Mine works only x.67, the highest, other values produce ony instability. I've read that this value is good for 65nm. For your 45nm should be a low value 0.65 or 0.63:up:
I've had good luck with cpu gtl at 0.63x, 0.67x or 0.675x depending on the clock. You can try setting fsb termination manually. 1.1-1.4v is a good range, but 1.4 is a bit high and past 1.45v you can permanently damage your cpu.
Thanks for the informative post. I'm wondering how well does a E5200 perform on a clock for clock basis with a E8400? For example, let's say that both the E5200 and E8400 were at the same clockspeed, how much of a performane advantage would an E8400 have in games, Photoshop CS3, Winrar, and video and music encodings?
More than that ,15-20% i guess. From what i know E8400 and E5200 have the same core, 45nm, Intel virtualiztion E5200 does'nt have. :up:
The main diference is the cache which is 6mb for E8xxx and 2mb for E5200/:up:
Anyway this E5200 do a great concurence to E7xxx, and smash with al x2 series from Amd up to X2 6400, an even to triple core :ROTF: :yepp:
It's seems that Intel realy wants to crush Amd:yepp: :yepp:
