If I haven't had such a great mounting job done to my cooler I would have torn it apart and do some air OCs :lol: But I can assure you that it will definetely go higher since I can fairly easy Prime LargeFFT @ 310Mhz for more than hour today. I can run only 1M @ 315Mhz 7-3-4-2.5-1T 2.75v but that's about all for now. I'm not gonna switch to 2T as results are just embarassing :D
I hate DOS memtest from all my heart and I just wanted to double-check today why :) So, I can do #5 and #8 for about 60 minutes at 300Mhz 7-3-3-2.5-1T 2.75v but in Windows this is so unstable like there's no tommorow :lol: But I'm on a mission now to get "TRCD=3 clocks" up a bit ;)

EDIT: I just re-read your question. Oops :D Actually, I would not be so sure about that, you know George. I don't personally believe in that. especially, since AMD's 90nm, when the colder you go, the worse sometimes it can be. I experienced that with a Winchester and I'm somewhat seeing that now, with San Diego 3700+. E.g, once I see -22C in BIOS, chances are (and it happens) that I cannot even boot to Windows @ 310+HTT. On air, 330HTT is never a problem. So, it's the other way around.

On air cooling :

Quent, is that 32M stable as well?
If so, this RAM is as good or even better than my 1GBLE. :eek:

eva, what makes you think phasechange cooled CPU's make TCCD clock higher?
Like BA says, the mc is taking a hit under subzero so actually it's the other way around, isn't it?

Good to see TCCD is still alive and kicking. :banana:

Yes SuperPi 32M OK @ 320, but in 2.5-4-3-8 1T

Very good tccd, sure :clap:

Do you have a screenshot for that, please? Maybe @ 310 and then 320Mhz, so we can compare ;) I'm asking because 1M was the only SPi calculation you run throughout whole your review. Also, why show 1M if it's good for 32M? Just checking, it's my nature... :D

In the meantime, last night I run some more SP2004...


120mins of SP2004 LargeFFT @ 310Mhz 6-3-4-2.5-1T @ 2.75v

I'll try If 315Mhz, 32M stable is doable with those sticks... They look like definite "yes" but I'll check later :)

I haven't got a screenshot, sorry.

SuperPi 1M OK @ 320Mhz 2.5-4-3-5 1T Dualchannel 3v
SupePi 32M OK @ 320Mhz 2.5-4-3-8 1T Dualchannel 3.2v
