thats not bad, i guess you get some occasional exceptions to the rule.
I just started tinkering w mine; still using stock voltage, etc. Just set my memory to 166 and upped HT to 230; can't go any higher with my kingston valueram so I end up with a 300Mhz overclock; not bad but not 2.7Ghz. Screenshot attached.
Last Monday I bought a 4200+, yesterday I started all the tests...these are preliminary results:
http://img279.imageshack.us/img279/3...5x103at.th.jpg
DFI LP NF4 Ultra-D (704-2 BTA)
A64 X2 4200+ LDBHE 0537 @ 1.35 * 110%
TR XP120 + Delta 120mm @ 7V
PQI Turbo 3200 (TCCD)
Got this screen after 30 minutes of Dual Prime, but I stopped it after 5 hours...
The point is, that I cannot get anything stable over 2.6GHz. It boots perfectly on Windows...but SP2004 fails after X minutes, always random.
Probably due to heat
Try lowering your Vcore and maybe try burning in :)
If I lower VCore to 1.40, 1.35...prime fails after 30 minutes or less. I guess it can be a combo of heat & need for vcore :P
...
well i got it prime95 stable at 2.7 with a vcore of 1.56. 2.75 is workable but not prime stable even with a 1.6 vcore. and 2.8 wont even boot to windows.
i havent touched mem settings since i'm even more clueless about that. any advice?

Are there 2 types of x2 4400?
http://www.amdcompare.com/us-en/desktop/Default.aspx
there are 2 4400 with different wattage
according to my research .. some say that low wattage is better for overclock .. how to differentiate da 2 types of 4400 which have 89 and 110 wattage? i'm curious on it's overclockin ability
one has 128*2 L1 Cache and the other has only 128 L1 Cache:
4400+ 89W:
Max Temp: 71°C
Thermal Power: 89W
L1 Cache: 128KB
4400+ 110W:
Max Temp: 65°C
Thermal Power: 110W
L1 Cache: 128KB + 128KB
Pretty weird...
Aite here the deal i just got my a8n32-sli deluxe.. match with amd 3800+ x2 .. 1gb ram "amp" brand , 3 drivers, 1 36gb rapture| 300Gb WD SATA , Gigabyte Watercooling System, XFX 7800GT .. x-infity 600W | BIos is 1009 latest...
Ok installing windows , booting up no problems... then i start to overclock it .. i got some question..
1. How come my voltage wont go above 1.45 unless overvoltage is on?
2. How come my temperature is so high.. right now i have it clock at 2.5 at 1.44V .. it 40IDE ... 45 full load.. isnt watercooling suppose tolower temp really good? btw my cpu is a naked 3800 x2
3. How come my system wont boot up with overvoltage on.... meaning it just a black screen everytime i save in bios and restart pc...? The vdmi is at 1.45V and overvoltage is on giving me total of 1.6V clock at 2.8ghz.... Everytime i want to restart i must shut down pc.. then turn it bak on to restart... same goes in saving in bios..
If i have it on like 1.45V w/o overvolt and clock at 2.5 it restart and reboot fine.. please help T_T
Thats the price you pay for buying an Anus "NANNY" mobo aznboinghia :slap: :stick:
IT decides what is a safe Vcore for your X2, NOT you, bin it and buy a real mans board :p: :D
Buy an Expert :fact: :hehe: :cheer2:
wah T_T but i can't find any dfi ultra in my area anywhere.. they keep sayin it out of stock T_T
My results are so bad so im cryin :/
My X2 3800+ Manchester is stable with :
1.425 vcore-2400mhz
1.400+110% vcore-2500mhz
2600Mhz fails with 1.475+110%...
What could be wrong?
damn tat sad lol .. go mess with ur divider :P
nah:P its not the divider... ive nearly been @ DDR600 with them ;)
maybe its my psu? undervolting? ;( if i set vcore @ 1.425 in bios etc... it is monotoring 1.41.
X2 3800+ E-6 (Toledo) @ 2900mhz AIR cooled

All_Star, you have to uncheck the "no affinity" boxes, that way each instance applies to the specified core and tests the cores equally. Very nice preliminary results however.
I know . . . I will run prime again tonight I think . . . :cool:Quote:

It can push to 2.8 but CPU 0 is a bit weaker, and it'll fail prime a lot sooner. I'm thinking of popping the lid once I find a better mounting solution, or just maybe doing CPU Burn.
2.9 is bootable, but it fails Prime instantly.. hrm..
2.8 is not stable even with 1.60 vCore, and not gonna push any higher than that with air cooling. ;|
