Thats one of the best. 100% load all the time, plus u can help out xs. If your not into that Prime95 is probably the best for CPUhttp://www.mersenne.org/freesoft.htm) and memtest is probably one of the best for memory (http://www.memtest.org/#downiso)

[aja]

occt, s&m, dual prime, systool, stay away from sandra unless you are doing long term stuff....

also give oc bible a try, link in mrsean's sig......

[aja]

yep, what moddo sed, those are really great as well, especially when you run cpu and memory testing stuf simultaneously.....

Memtest is a program that burns in in bios, isn't it?
Like the one in DFI Mainboard??
But if we do with other MOBOs how to do it???

[aja]

nono, memtest is run from windows, or you can create a boot disk and run it from there, like a recovery cd.......it doesnt seem to work in xp 64bit, so just use the boot disk one........

give me the link to download

Overclocker's must have programs are here and here
As aja said O/c Bible is available following my sign.

MemTest is a program for testing if your RAM is stable (runs OK without errors) but some people believe that it burns also RAM.
Keep in mind that burn-in is quite different than stability testing.

Thanks a lots man!!!

you guys have any recommend waterblock for 775

Toast works great! Especially in combination with ClockGen/anoter fsb adjusting tool. You just start Toast in normal priority, then adjust the fsb upwards to max with ClockGen. Then Toast will automaticly rise the clockspeed in very small steps. Im using it myself.. I found the oc bible a bit to complicated and old, but I can see it works with MrSeanKon.

Regards Pekkie!

I believe that safe and stable o/c can be achieve using BIOS settings.
This is my opinion.

I found the oc bible a bit to complicated

I know that O/c Bible is a complicated program.
OK I am the creator of this package; I have written the source code; I know anything for this but I don't use all programs.
Sometimes I use AMD Crash temperature other times other tools etc...
In addition it covers many things for o/c which you cannot find to other programs.
It needs patience.

and old, but I can see it works with MrSeanKon.

Your feedback/questions etc for this program should be in Bible's thread.
That's why I opened an extra thread and give the link in sign.

I just read that your supposed to keep the frequency at stock while lowering the vcore? o_O

What about maxing out the frequency and then lowering the voltage to a point where prime gives no errors? Ive been doing for about 8 hours already. <<;

[MrSeanKon]

I found this thread for Intel burn-in.
Useful I think.

Reznik Akime I followed this idea (two years ago with 2 Bartons) and no significant gains...
I don't remember exact values but I think MSF was 2450 MHz (Barton 2800+) with Vcore=1.925 and after this process my CPU could pass at 2463MHz with 1.900 Volts.
Multiplier was 12.5X (locked CPU).
Ok you may ask me "Man this thread is for Intel burn-in" but this process similar for Intels and AMDs but you should avoid high Vcores cos Intels are very sensitive.
My current CeleronD and previous P4 Prescott became more unstable after CPU burn-in.
Vcore was 1.584 for both CPUs.

[jahjahbinks]

So at stock speed I just drop vcore as low as possible. Now for the actual burn in, do I run two instances of prime or just one?

[MrSeanKon]

Of course if you have Intel HT CPU or any dual core CPU you should run two instances of Prime95.
If you don't know click here
In my opinion Prime95+StressPrime2004 are not for burn-in both of them are stability programs.
Also forget SuperPi for Intel stability tester is not sensitive cos poor Intel FPU.

[jahjahbinks]

Yeah, I am running D2OL now. Just realized this burn in time should not go wasted. Vcore at 1.18 I think this is good for now. I will let D2OL run for about 5 hours before I shoot for lower voltage. Then tomorrow evening I will start increase FSB and voltage slowly.

p.s. just to clarify, this is x2 3800+

[jahjahbinks]

windows would freeze at 2450 at 1.28v. Anything I can do before I increase voltage?
