The San Diego OC DISCUSSION Thread

Hello guys.

Until now I have obtained this with my 3700+ 0522 XPAW.

I want to make questions: :fact:

a) You think that it is a good result for a 3700+?

b) You Think that with WC can improve the results?

(The temperatures for 2.9ghz@1.65V are 38C Idle - 60C Full )

c) Am better to have left I with the Sandiego or venice of my signature?

(Both do 2.9ghz but venice is slower and warms up less.)

Thank you very much by all the aid that can lend me to decide. :woot:

Until soon

1.6v in bios approximately

Just ran my 3700@290x10 and got this. Yours is about right. This should be over in the sd oc'ing thread. Please use thumbnails as even with dsl it jumps up and down alot.

Any -70C luck on newer steppings guys?

hey people im new to this forum, im having problem overclocking my 4000+ SD, its a SH-E4 model, the specs below are the best i can get out of this, seems like 2.64 is the best stable i can do, even with volts up to 1.71 i cant get it stable even at 2.81ghz, 11x255, i take the HTx to 4x, i take the volt of the chipset higher, ldt volt is at 1.3, and my ram is fine, i even tried running a different multiplier, i donno what to do, seems like im the only one stuck at 2.64 if this is the max then i am very disapointed with this cpu :[, anyone have any suggestions?????

@ GAR

How hot does your chipset run with your case closed? And looking at your specs I thought with the SDs it ws better to run them at a Decrease Skew of 255...?

Hi
My SD 3700+ start at 320x10 1.75v with BOX cooler WITHOUT THERMOPASTE (im test it quickly) :D MB Epox 9NDA3+. CPU not my, and I must say it OC potential. How thinks, with what frequency earn this CPU ?

I live in Florida man it isn't any better....I keep the side off my case and I have a big fan blowing in it and it idles at 40C and load about 45-47C. It scares me when it goes over 50C...I don't like it LoL.

I tried getting nVidia Silencers on my 6800GTs but they wont fit...I want to find some other way of cooling my video cards. I am thinking about putting water blocks on them but that is one hell of a heavy heat load on that with my CPU...I am not sure how it will affect that. Anyone have any ideas?

I live on the Ga- Fl line and it's not that hot on my comp, I have air cond.

I'm suprised they don't have it where you live, maybe you'll get it someday.

Yeah but to run it cool in that one room at a certain temp the rest of the house is freezing and it runs the electric bill sky high...want to pay for mine?

I'll trade. When you grow up poor, there are only three things that matter:

have enough to eat
stay warm in winter
stay cool in summer

Neext few Days a go to max OC :)

what is the best NEW week for SD
new weeks i mean 30 -> 35

are the later weeks of 3700+ overclocking as good or better than the older?

Hi..
I just have possibilies to change my A643700+ San Diego week 526
for a 4000+ San Diego. Without loose money.
What can i wait from the 4000+?
I will try getting the 3Ghz and use my OCZ like they must work, at 600Mhz min.
But actually my OC max is at 2.93Ghz with the 3700+... Actually i don't know if this is my CPU, some week are better as other..(memory controller)
memtest is stable at 615Mhz without tweaks..
The memtest pass too during hours of loop (5 + 8 + Full)at more of 300x10...278 x 11 without errors... Under windows..reboot after 10 sec.

I use the Win X64 pehraps it's the thing made this.
What do you think, All San Diego 4000+ are good Overclocker or it is like the 3700+, all is determinate by the revision.(week)

To be honest... I've tried 3 4000+ San Diego's now and they've all sucked mad balls in the OC department.

The last one I had was the best, which would do 2,977 stable but at a whopping 1.75v, the one before that would only do 2915 stable @ 1.65v, and my current one only does 2850 stable @ 1.6v.

Fed up with these damned Diego's. Ready for my Opty 146 to come in... ugh.
