Overclocking made easy, Phenom 9850BE @ 790GX @ AMD Overdrive Extreme

[demonkevy666]

It kinda sucks to see many websites using the AOD i leaked and not give credit to my website or myself, i've seen this in a couple of "websites" already. They didnt even put it on the news but they sure used my file.

For AOD to overclock a lot you need RD790+SB 750 or RS780D+SB750 with a Black Edition Phenom.

are you sure because, what I read is it's better then some of the 780A boards.

Completely sure

[Rammsteiner]

Completely sure

Am I retarded or what.

So you recommend boards with a SB750 to OC well (or at least in AOD).

Then Devmonkey asks if you're sure because the SB750 board is better than 780a (I make out from this you actually said 780a board is better although you never named the 780a).

And then you confirm that the SB750 board is better, which you already said

Now did I miss like an invisible message here or

PS: Just now I thought Devmonkey might be about 780G chipset instead of nForce 780a? In that case I get the whole picture. RS780D is like... not a budget 780G/V chip but a high end chip. Just like RD790FX, but then with an IGP. That's why the RS780D is also named 790GX

SB750 seems to be the key, also GX NB holds some special place with BE overclocking.

You know something don't you??

DON'T YOU???

Confess!

(Or we'll make you use Intel chips for the rest of your LIFE! Oh the travesty! Okay... I couldn't do that to someone...)

Only what i have read on the net, seems they found some tweaks that helps overclocking and they seem to revolve around GX and the new SB, maybe HT was holding us back...who knows ?

Im looking forward to testing my 9850 with some of the new boards when I get a chance, the only issue for me is time at the moment though....to much to do

[SocketMan]

It's the :
Amd's ace/extra 6pins/magic something (mushrooms?)

I'll take a wild guess and say they've added "more" room for the HTT,and a better clockgen,
say it's not 200 anymore but 250 even thou it will stay at 200.

I am seeing all these crazy 3.4/3.5/3.7's overclocks then I look
at our little Phenom database and for 24/7 usage it's about 3.1 or so ?
Which (for me) is fine but what people are "hitting" and what the same people are running 24/7 is quite different.
An hour of AOD does not mean stable my friend, you will find it out for your self
(if you keep it on-no resets)
I think with Phenom stable would be:
half a day idling, then 8hours primem,idle another day,some aod,idle,some more stress, more idle and if in 1 week you have no reboots/bsd-STABLE

**************************************
just "came back" to me WISE stability,is the term, thank you KTE
****************************************
That new "CMOS something" window in the AOD 2.1.1. beta (thank you METRO.CL) where is it ?

well the beta and 2.1 give me loud screach like the old ones did. 2.0.17 was the best one for me so far. allthouh i use bios. but atleast on the .17 i didnt have to worry about hitting apply or ok LOL

[StalkingButcher]

Any indication when these boards will be available? Particularly the one you are using.

[LIKMARK]

*Cough*cherry picked processor

or did you buy it from a retailer?

[bldegle2]

everything is still shrouded in mysteries....

why all the mystery?, just come out with the frig-in' 750 chipset already, I don't see this really helping AMD, their real problem is selling to the masses, not catering to overclockers (but it is a good thing to see little tidbits, smidgens of what may or may not be right around the corner).....

out into the cruel world to earn some more $$$ to blow on a 750 MB whenever they become available....

laterzzz.....

1.50- 1.55v is absolutely a rotten cherry,

sorry I don't have the chance to pick good cherries.

it is the only 9850BE I have.

I guess July.

[Rammsteiner]

w00t

First good signs of showing up in shops tbfh

[Cooper]

If you refering to NVidia 780a then AOD is not officially supporting it as all other non ATI 7xx series chipsets

[demonkevy666]

I'm not talking about AOD on Nv boards.

I'm taking over clocking over all.

[SocketMan]

Cmon people stop mixing the 750a/SB750/SB700/RD790/780a/780g/790gx/790fx/790fxb/770/3870/4870 did I miss anything
all together.......
too many 7's that's the problem maybe

Add RX780/RS780/RD780 i had tooo...

[Jimmer411]

Man I hope these come out soon! Ive got a new build to start later in july and want a DFI board with SB750 and a 9850BE or 9950 (when released)

Does the 9950 add something special? If not I guess there's not much of a reason to grab it over a 9850BE?

It might not even be a black edition. If it isn't, it'll be pretty useless to most of us.

[kenofstephen]

if time allows, I will try again on water cooling tomorrow

[Rammsteiner]

if time allows, I will try again on water cooling tomorrow

And pretty please try to use the multipliers less and use the HTT

'n spoken about the devil:
9950 on pre-order for 190 Euro...

[informal]

Guys i don't know if anyone actually thought about this possibility,but here it goes:
Maybe,just maybe AMD will do the following 2 things(or 1 of the 2 things):
1) override the maximum current allowed for the cores by connecting the 7 pins of the AM2+ cpu to the SB750?Intriguing is the 140W prerequisite (apart from the obvious fact that OCed chip will draw more than 125W ).So what i was thinking is overriding the built-in maximum current limit for the cores and northbridge.It seems far fetched but not impossible.
2)remember that SB750 will have built-in PLL? Well,this way,when the certain 7 pins from the SB750 pins and AM2+ pins of the Phenom are directly connected (as the leaked PDF slides indicates), it should be far more efficient at syncing the clock signals than any other non-integrated PLL on any other motherboard for Phenom out there.You will have a shorter signal path and more direct link to the cpu's PPLs which could possibly mean a better OCing headroom with lower voltage.

Just a thought .
