nice....what sort of volts did you give it.....that TT typhoon is awesome...well as long as it doesn't split the board in half

Oh sorry Absolute_0 I didnt know to but I posted it on #924 I just didnt run Prime95 yet so I let it run all day while I was at work. And yes it was at 2.93GHz I was going for 3GHz tonight. Do you need my CPU-Z shot again? Or is it that you need both of them in the same shot to prove that I ran that speed. If so I'll run it again tonight and take a ss whith them both in it.
I dont know how good these scores are in sandra but I raised my oc to 2.95GHz. HTT at 328 SuperPi is still 29s though.
Nice results guys, So far I've gotten my +3200 to 2900mhz pushing for more only using 1.5vcore but I'm having a problem with it shuttinf down might pick up a ocz powersupply tomorrow 450 or 520watts, I have a thermaltake 48watt right now, just it has low amps on the 12volt rail, I think the psu is at fault because the computer totally shuts off if i apply to much vcore even if its underclocked and I have to use the swtich on the psu to get it to turn back on. With 1.60 or 1.65 volts i'm hoping for 3ghz stable on air.
Check out this screeny I can get to about 3150mhz but any load casue reboot 3ghz is pretty windows idle happy.

damn 4rory, good clocks! i thought you were having problems with the memory? You said that you could only get good clocks running a big divider and with 1 dimm, is that what you're doing or did you get that issue sorted out?
Meh memory does 275ish, I solved the memory issue on the neo2.
I getting high temp readings but my probe on heatsink base reads alot lower, But my main problem is i'm just having those power issues or so I think, If I can pin it on the psu tonight before 12pm (got to sleep work tomorrow) i'll pick up an ocz psu, do you think a 450w ocz is better will be ok over my 480thermaltake, dont want to end up in the same situation or should I go higher, and modstream or powerstream is it really worth it?
If I can get more vcore to it stable, I could easily get it to 3ghz. From 2.8 to 2.9 was just 50mv so yeah just tring find out whats causing shutdowns, wish I had a cheap less power hungry videocard I could just swap out for a simple test. Anyone got any Idea's that would point at the psu lacking in power on the 12volt?
well i had the same memory issues with the neo2, i was completely unstable past 2,75ghz no matter the voltage. So what did you do to fix it?
A better PSU should help. Powerstream is better than modstreams, and they have adjustable rails. Get something that's got a huge 12V rail...
I modded this psu to get 12.40 on the 12volt and the 3.3volt is at 3.5v and 5.25v on the 5volt. I think I only have 18amps on the 12volt :rolleyes: I got a 9800pro and lots of fans and lights lol and a raptor drive.
Well I haven't been able to get my memory stable higher then 275, 280 is like the limit even loosening timings from 2.5-3-3-7 to 3-4-4-8 nets me more or less nothing I have ocz rev.2 with tcc5 and 2.65 is only good voltage anything else is +errors. with 2t I get 2mhz more or so, its weird I gave up on the memory for now. I'm trying to psuh this cpu since cpu speed makes a way bigger difference, I was wondering if anyone here was getting good result with burn-in? maybe it's worth a try for me if I can't get higher vcore to work right.
I'm getting good results with burn in. 2.86 Ghz used to take 1.58volts to run prime95 for hours and now i'm doing it with 1.56. I want to work down to 1.55 or so.
What and how exaclty are you doing it, I don't have vcore adjustments that fine. How long did those results take?
hmm, i did a few runs probably totaling 15 hours. Now i'm "finalizing" it by running Prime95 at the reduced voltage.
Take your highest stable settings, that is, where you've got high clocks but high Vcore, and lower the voltage 1 notch in the bios. Windows should be stable enough to work normally, it will only error out in games, prime95, benching, etc. Run a program called CPU Burn In with error checking disabled. That way the program will continue to run at 100% load even if it gets errors. Eventually the CPU will "adjust" to the lower voltage.
Hmm, sounds like it's worth a shot, I try it soon, once I can deal with the sound of this computer or figure something out, Anyways gtg to sleep.
Exactly what I had started, and what I'm going to continue doing once my rig is actually up and running. :(Quote:

I'm going to test with a lower multi and ram divider later to see if its the board.
Blackjok3r, that sounds more like a crash, I have to reset the switch on my psu or there is no way I can get my computer to boot back up to I'm guessing that, that psu's overload protections is kicking in.
my poor 3000+BP 0516EPBW can only overclock to 2500MHz with stock voltage, 2600MHz with adding 0.8v.
what the heck! it can't met 2700MHz even with 1.6v. I don't like adding too high voltage.
I hope you mean adding 0.08v ;)
Anyway, 0516's aren't any good, unfortunately :/
Considering thats an over 700MHz OC on the cheapest Venice available must be just soooo hard :( , my heart really goes out to you, NOT :rolleyes:Quote:

Just make sure you don't get anything that isn't CBBLE 0504/0512 (good luck finding them ;)) and LBBLE 0515/0517, especially if it'll be your fourth(!) venice.
I guess I got lucky, seeing how I got a nice one on the first try, online order.

Never even heard of that being brought up.....Quote:
