lol...ok boss

So far so good...I haven't run prime, but I had folding running while defragging hard drive. That usually crashes it if not stable.
For me the real test will be video ripping and encoding. If it survives that...I will consider it very stable.
Only thing that worries me is high cpu voltage it took to stop random reboots...2.125 is setting but bios shows 2.1v
How high is safe for 24/7 with good cooling (Prommie)?
05-13-2003, 02:58 PM
Tweaked!

Anything under 220v is recommended, I would even go as far to say anything under 110v;) :p

I've had a palomino xp2000 running on air cooling at 2.05 for the last 3 - 4 months now without a hiccup:D

I think that 1700+ wont be too much of a loss if it doesnt work for 3-4 months.

It's really looking good guys! Completely stable so far...will run prime to make sure.
This is not that great a deal for some of you I realize....others have done much better...but this is my best OC ever and the goal that I was after. Very pleased! :D
Like you say....no huge financial loss if I burn the chip up...well worth the fun of my own personal best ever OC.

great overclock!!!

I could bench 3Dmark at 3 GHz, but to go folding and all that at 2.9 GHz 24/7 was hard even with my stronger prom.
I'm assuming this is your Prom and now Bowman's cooler so thats one kickass OC my friend. Go for a 3 GHz screenie... you know you want to ;)

LOL....yep, been thinking about trying to stay up long enough for a 3 screenie:D I got the siren before the 2.9 OC...no reboot so I turned it off for 10 minutes, then booted up at 2.9 I had to do the same thing with other chip to hit 2.8
It is in my Prommie....but will go in Bowmans rig for sure, should do better. Prom idles at -24 on display at this voltage.

BTW I installed my new Twinmos/winbondBH-5 2x256 3200 DDR in this rig today...timings are 5.2.2.2.cas2.0

You know I will go for it....next goal. Right now I'm gonna run here for a while and enjoy the moment....in case 100% fails :D
I don't think she has much left....maybe in Bowmans old cooler.

hey, not to shabby at all, looks like your chip is even better then jc's wonder chip, he just had the advantage of better cooling.
05-13-2003, 05:13 PM

I have another cooler that I will try it in. It should be equal to what he used I believe...maybe better?

Excellent work there Dude :toast:

Dont worry about 2.125V in the prom, mines been sitting on 2.25V for a few weeks now without any probs.

Now shoot for the big 3G :banana:

Excellent! I want to see you get a 100% OC but even better past 3GHz! :toast:

Is that on the 8RGA+? Could you reach a higher FSB that your current 195?

Only way to get higher anything will be to play with multi...chip is about maxed I think
But then someone with real skilz like Opp or JC could probably get this chip there...I will keep trying! :D

it would be cool if you reached 200fsb, if the chip is maxed out, why notm lower the multi and raise the fsb to increase you memory bandwidth, if your using that TwinMos you just got it should do it shouldnt it?

it would be great to see you get there :D

Ran into a problem today. I tried to get higher FSB and no post...had to shut down. When I rebooted at old fsb...no go. So I dropped back to 190fsb just to get into windows. Not sure what happened.
I think I will drop multi and try again to get higher FSB.
Also my Epox GA+ came today.:D

I have tried it, but wasn't needed this time. I just powered off...waited a few and powered back on...it would have booted with default, but I went right into bios where all my old settings were still there, changed one and then changed it back again. I hate to clear it completely if I don't have to...pain in the butt to reset them all again.:D

No....I know absolutely nothing about 3DMark. I am in total awe of those guys! I would like to learn some time, but have other projects going on right now.
Funny thing is, I have DDTUNG'S old 9700 that he modded.
