Ok but what cooling are you using? You say removing the IHS, but what kind of speeds did you get without removing it? I am looking to do Air only and leaving IHS on the chip with XP-120 and 114 CFM 120mm fanQuote:

Ok been playing with it for about 15minutes, went straight to 2750mhz 11x250 with 1.5v and both cores are stable right off the bat so I'm arleady pretty happy since this was my goal for chip with the Crucial Ballistix ;)
2.8ghz would be nice for me !
@xxmartin what cooling are you using ??
I have a 4400+ and a MSI K8n NEO2 plat. Im having issues with the 1.97b bios and voltage options. I have been able to overclock so far to 2.695mhz using 245x11 which isnt bad but the problem is my voltage options are screwy. I cant get more than 1.52v no matter what combo CPU Vid and percentages over that. If I choose !.45-1.5 with no pecentages it actually undervolts. The most ive been able to do I believe is 1.425+10% but no other combos yiled higher voltages at all. Anyone else see this??
Major,
Wow, I really hope I don't have to be jealous of your 4400+ I would be more than happy with air at 2750, are you using air right now??
You got me real damn excited about tomorrow with these results! If I can get that clock it will be a first for me to have a CPU that I was lucky with as far as satisfied overclock and my goal was 2.6-2.8 which was what I expected with FX-55, FX-57 just a waste of $$$ since 2.6-2.8 is plenty enough to push a single and most times SLI 7800 GTX
I'm using an Exos2 with GPU300-V10 block.Quote:

I'm running 2 instances of Prime95 right now while I type ;) my load temps after an hour are 39c with 1.52v 2750mhz. My SD @ 2.9ghz and 1.72v never got above 36c if that tells ya anything.
Edit: ok I'm tired of this, time to start pushing it ! :D
Ok, like everyone else i have one core that is much weaker than the other. I had to take it all the way to 1.68v (1.7v in bios which as high as I'm willing to go with an 8 hour old chip on my water :D ) to get both cores stable at 2.8ghz.
Me like this X2 a bunch ! :woot:
I might see if I can squeak anoher couple of mhz out of this Vcore though b4 I call it quits for the night.
Lord.... I am not even sure I want to put so much voltage on phase for X2... thats about +.4v from stock major :) I've just bumped up to 1.6v and getting dual prime 2.7ghz... I think you have better chip than me or taking the heatspread off is helping you tons on heat problem... :)Quote:

BTW I've had two instances of SP2004 running now for about 2 hours, and using my computer as normal. I can't even tell they are running !! I love it ! Can't wait to play with 2gig tomorrow ;)
2nd Edit !! I just noticed that in addition to me surfing the web, two instances of SP2004, 2 kids are watching some movies from the server too ! lol
Ok, some final results b4 heading off to sleep.
Apartently my X2 likes the 10x multi better than 11x
I know I didn't let prime run very long, but running out of time to test and wanted to see what PI would do.
10x285 1.67vcore
Try Large FFTs. See how the memory controller likes being stressed.
@Major
I got exactly the same chip like you :) .
4400
CCBWE 0524RPMW
F50019
Your right about the heat issue, I got an XP-120 with an 92 cfm fan. I can't stress (two times prime 24,13) with my case closed @ 1,3V. With case open I can stress 1.375V (highest Vcore I tried with stressing), the heat is 44 degrees in Smartgardian.
I have not much time to play at the moment, but gonna try MP10 tonight like you and more Vcore.
I have a similar stepping:
CCBWE 0524RPMW
F50226
Having some memory issues though so havent tried overclocking yet.
@nicholarse
I'm running on VX PC3200, no probs for me. Sorry to hear.
I'm trying to tun 2GB Ballistix tracer but one stick is failing memtest (other is fine) not sure if one is just a dud or if I need to tweak the BIOS settings - everything is at stock atm with timings at SPD as I'm just installing all my software etc. I need to flash my BIOS as well as I'm still on 510-2 from when I was running BH5. Not sure which -3 BIOS to change to though? 704-3 perhaps?
Nice very nice, so your ballistix are doing that 280s speed? or is that other ram you have in there for testing?Quote:

I have one arriving today it is the retail 4400+ I am curious to find out what your results were with air as I will not be doing any water or anything else besides air.
I too am running ballistix tracer 2x1GB modules, after tomorrow it will be in a DFI UT LP Ultra-D for now they are in my P4 3.2@3.4 EE Asus P4C800-E Dlx I managed to run 210FSB @ 2-2-2-5 w/PAT on rock stable for 2 weeks, due to the EE chip and its not so wonderful overclock that's all I've been able to raise it for FSB speed, memtest was perfect.Quote:

Major, very good results. :toast:
Those 0524 RPMW seem to be very similar. Mine is running 2800 MHz easily with 1.52V but upping 40-60 MHz will need a huge VCore bump because of the worse core.
My 24/7 setting at the moment is 2800 MHz (10x280). Don't really need those extra 50-100 MHz at the cost of 0.1-0.2V higher VCore. ;)
I think, without heatspreader it is safe to stay below 1.7V. My SanDiegos were running fine with 1.75V, so nothing to worry about.

Results with 2gig later this afternoon. I may have to play hookie from work today ! :D
for air cooling the x2, this cnps9500 looks like the one to get.

Chip can boot and internet @ 1.20VQuote:

At the moment I work from 08.00-23.00 so I didn't have much time test. I have two low noise 120mm fans in my case (low cfm).
With case open, prime stable for 10 minutes and than changed Vcore:
2306 @ 1.30V
2405 @ 1.35V
2450 @ 1.375V
With my winnie I could put 1.65V (not that it helps, was a bad chip) and all fans at low speed, case closed, the temp was middle 30.
If your not gonna use WC, you should have a good airflow in your case :) .
Are there some results with Mach II GT or Vapo LS?
@xxmartin, what cooling are you using ??
At the very begining of the thread there are some results with vapor phaseQuote:
