The Official X2 Overclocking Thread (Please Post Your OC's)

[freakBYnature]

Don't get me wrong... I just have another idea of what safe volt is

[LIKMARK]

My definition of safe voltages is about 1,6V on air.. Thats with the 9700LED.
I forced it up to 2625MHz for a validation once. That's with 1,5V on the NB and 1,6V on the SB.. Pretty sure I'm unlucky with this one.

Tried with much looser timings on my ram too, nothing helps.

Kinda irritating, can't test my new ballistix for max oc.

[zaim]

At the moment ... 270fsb x 10multi x 4 HTT @ 1.6v (over volt option on)

ram is on 270mhz (540mhz), 3-3-2-5 1T @ 3v

[LIKMARK]

nice oc on the ram!

Yeah, you're really unlucky, but I believe I'm more unlucky... now the AM2 3800+ x2 windsor setup here has gone capoof on me... Can't boot the machine, and I honestly don't know if it's the CPU or the GPU that has gone insane! Just have to send them both on RMA to komplett. And I haven't clocked either! The MSI K9N Neo-F is such a rotten clocker that anything above stock is a waste of time.

Hi guys! New to the forum.

I have a Brisbane 4800+ and an Asus M2N-E mobo and I have a hard time overclocking. I think the problem is that the bios only let me get the RAM voltage to 1.95 So if i try 3.0,2.9 or 2.8GHZ the systems freezes or fails in orthos What is a good combination with that RAM voltage with out compromising HT speeds.
Any advise is apreciated!

hello welcome to XS!

I'm currently using the same mobo (brisbane 3600) and you have to mod the vdimm to get anything out of this mobo.

lol, but what if she was mute? Could she tell you then? It was an economic purchase for my kid, but I just didn't know HOW bad it was!

3300Mhz with 1.350V. CPU-Z shows 0,1V less then BIOS.

An old test with DFI Ultra-D on air .

What is this screenshot supposed to tell us?

the Opteron 170 has two cores, so you should run prime95 twice .. otherwise its for your grandmum

~ 1.7v (in BIOS i suppose) for 2730Mhz ... what stepping is it? 0536GPMW?

Just saw your review of the mobo at your website btw. Nice site!

Never tried MSI's mobos, most possibly never will try them either...

My gfx is MSI, and I'm VERY happy with it, but thats another story...

It will give you up to 1.46vcore! Download the K9n Platinum Bios 1.7 and the manual so you can disable the devices that arnt used by your K9n Neo-F. I used the 1.6 and the 1.7bios for over a year with a 3200+Orleans@2.8ghz and a 5600+@3.1ghz 100%stable 24/7,with a lapped MiniTyphoon!

I believe the fking mobo DIED! I can't turn it on anymore in any case, don't know if it's the mobo or the crappy 7300GS or anything else for that matter, will just have to send it in two parts a time to komplett

Hello to all, I found this forum on the web, pretty good and interesting, I'm a Chilean, the third best score in SuperPi 2M on AM2 Socket here... for the moment! So im trying to get down to the first place, 1 second faster.


This is my Best OC

and this happened when i Tried to get more out of the rams

http://img329.imageshack.us/my.php?i...superpipp5.jpg

I think I will and cant get another better timing in SuperPi

Thats why I came here to ask you guys...

My Computer is a

4800 Brisbane x2
With a DFI Infinity NF UltraII-m2
and some mushkin 2x1gb XP2-6400 (4-4-3-10)

My stable settings for SuperPi Where
- 248 FSB
- 12.5 Multiplier
- HT Link 993
- 1.6 Vcore
- 2.1 Vdimm
- 4-4-4-12 (23 TRC Bank Cylce Time) <--- Should I Lower this one too?!!?!?
- Mems workin @ 443x2 -> Somtin like 880 Mhz


I think thats all, a big hello for everyone and i hope I can easily integrate this community.

I invite you all to www.chilehardware.com a chilean overclocking and hardware website, pretty interesting with lots of reviews.

Bye

You should get an other Mainboard. I also owned the DFI Infinity and its not that good. My maximum was 3200Mhz with that board with 1.425V. I could even run prime95 for about one hour @ 3300Mhz with 1.350V with my new foxconn.

btw: the pics don't work.

The problem is I live in chile, the best OC mainboards are DFI, MSI and Asus...

Im going to the states probably in december, maybe somebody can recommend me something :P

hi guys , just got a crosshair and 5600+ F3 rev, first attempts

yeah, i'm used DFI INFINITY NF570-M2/G with x2 5200+ before and i think INFINITY NF570-M2/G is the best of best for overclocking an AM2's cpu, that very easy

An update on my benchmarking and OC
got to first place in superpi2m

He's got a DFI Infinity NF UltraII-m2, taht board has the "old" nF4 Chip and not the new 5 series like 570 and 590.

I could reach only 3200Mhz with the DFI, but 3300Mhz with the Foxconn, even 3400Mhz.

on air , ambient temp is 31.

Decent clock I think
