that's an amazing dualcore clock on air - give it some sub temps ;)

that's an amazing dualcore clock on air - give it some sub temps ;)
sure when my lather will send me the container i will order the dryice:D
i hope that the cold bug will be slow:(
Sorry missed that in the original post, still nice speed :)Quote:

Are they very good x2 4800s that AMD was reserving lol?
Too bad allmost all of the CPU's got some kind of coldbug ;/
congrats on your great FX60, hope it doesn't have a big coldbug...
a little offtopic Gloatlizard, while i was @ techzonept forums, i saw you're getting a Ricky's Cascade ;) and yesterday i saw there that now that the beast is almost finished, is getting awesome results ;)
hope to see some big results soon from it ;)
the cascade is growing great but unlucky i surely won't be able to try it on this fx60:(
that is impressive
What aircooling are you running here?
I'm currently @ 2860Mhz, 13x220, 1.5V and temps are 53@CPU, 57@PWMIC, 48@CHIPSET. Using a TT Big Tyhpoon.
Trying to reach atleast 3000Mhz for 24/7 use.
Go for ln2... DI wont give you benefit as it will stay -79 and with coldbug thats hard. Even if its under -79 base temp you have benefit with ln2 :DQuote:

I've been putzing around with my 0536 FX-60 lately and wanted to share my results. Using a DFI Lanparty NF4 SLI-DR and an SI-120 w/ Panaflo, I'm 24/7 stable running the proc at 3080Mhz (220x14) @1.425v. I'm running my 2x 1024MB DDR400 Corsair at 2.5-3-3-6-1T @2.8v. With my 2x 7800GTX 256MB I'm able to pull off 14613 in 3dmark05. Check the pic for associated cpuz, everest temps, and SuperPI stuffs.
Basically, this is my first real attempt at overclocking more than a single speed grade, and this is the first time I've been able to afford decent parts. I've worked with computers for a good while but I'm a complete n00b at overclocking. How am I doing? Any suggestions? I'd love to hit 3.2 on air but I haven't been 24/7 stable at anything above where I am. I've been very conservative with my voltages and should probably open them up more to see if I can go higher, but I want to take care of my baby. :)
Any comments are appreciated.
How many times must this be said :p:- Dual cores need dual Spi/Prime 95 running. Running only one instance loads 50%..
Thank you, good catch! I'm dual-priming tonight.
Because you're running 1 instance. Run dual pi. If you don't run dual pi then you can't even say your CPU is 1m stable.Quote:

Here's a shot of where I'm at. One question, are my temps a bit high for my overclock? I'm using a SI-120 and a Panaflo inside a Sonata II with a pair of Coolermaster 120mm fans. Maybe I'm just paranoid, but I wanted to get your insights. What are "safe" temps on air?
I'm about an hour from being 24-hour dual-prime stable on my 3.08Ghz FX-60, so I figured I'd get it CPUz validated.
Here it is: http://valid.x86-secret.com/show_oc.php?id=77985
While that system's running I think I'm going to start working on my SFF box. Heh, this overclocking is becoming addictive...
Nice, I hope my FX60 will be as nice tas that. My goal would be 3Ghz 24/7 use as well.
::prays::
you keep saying this... why.. spi is single threaded.. if you say so you also have to run 3d m 06 twice :S that is also a no go... fastest time counts!Quote:

I just can't seem to get my cpu stable at 2828+ .. even raised ldt and chipset voltage by 0.1.. Tried voltages up to 1.55 but I think DFI expert bios is undervolting, both CPU-Z and SmartGuardian shows 0.3 less then I set. Anyone got any thoughts? Sorry for jacking thread a bit.
amazing
I gonna do my first steps to OC my FX60 with ASUS Crossfire MoBo with 3200 chipset. I hope i gonna be lucky and to reach 3000MHz i have XP-90 and XP-120 i just wonder wich one of them to use ....
Do you mean CPU-z is showing 1.25v? If so then that'll definately be a hinderance in getting a 3Ghz overclock. I had to get over 1.45 before my system would run stably at 3.08Ghz. I didn't have to raise my LDT or chipset voltages, but ymmv.Quote:

This is being run on a DFI NF4-SLI DR board in a PACKED Antec Sonata II case with a Thermalright SI-120 and 120mm Panaflo. By packed I mean I'm running 2x DVD-R/W, 2x Raptor 74GB, 2x WD 250GB, 2x 7800GTX, X-Fi Platinum (w/ front panel), Floppy, Media Card reader, TruePower 550 PS, and 3x 120mm Coolermaster green LED fans.
This is my dedicated gaming machine that I take to LAN parties and such, so I had to make sure it wouldn't be cratering on me in the middle of an event. Thanks to a lot of the tips I've read on this and other forums, I've finally reached my 24/7 3GB dual-core OC.
Over clocking is like a drug to me when I start I can't stop. I am so glad I don't have a big enough case I would like for water cooling or a cascade lol. But I am getting my TT BT tomorrow so I am going to try and beat my personal best :)Quote:

Ah sorry, ment it showing 0.03 less ... Still dont think my cpu will do 3.08 with those settings. Gonna try right away and see what happens. Thanks for the tips.Quote:
