POST YOUR E6850 with OC PERFORMANCE

[stephen23]

Just a quick test on 3.2G, 3.6G and 4G on prime95

My rig:
CPU:E6850 L722A232
M/B:Asus P5K-Deluxe
CPU Cooler:Ultra 120 eXtreme with thermaltake A1926 fan
RAM:Crucial Ballistix DDR2-1066 5-5-5-15 1G X2
VGA:Asus 2600XT DDR3
POWER:Enermax Liberty 500W
CASE:Thermaltake Armor Jr.


3.2G Start


3.2G finished


3.6G start


3.6G finished


4G start


4G finished

You need to torture test them alot longer than a hour say 5 to 24 hours!

[Garrett]

That's true bro20000, but an hour of stress is already a very good indication
And Stephen23, you should add 15c to those temps right?

Mine says 21 idle lol... the air coming out of the PA120.3 is 26c...

Currently Orthos running @ 3.6ghz @ 1.328v load voltage (1.360 idle, 1.40 set in bios, stupid GA-P35-DS3 vdropping vdrooping board )

[jugeen]

I downgraded back to two cores. Orthos runing 9*430 @ CPU 1,4625V @ PLL 1.6V @ NB 1.4V @ FSB 1.5V and after one hour my PC is randomly restarting. what the problem can be? any idea? thx!

thx for your advice!!!
I might do it later.

at least 15 degrees......................even on Intel TAT.

i think its the idle temps thats have to be addes 15c not the load temp for some reason.... would really be nice of an update of coretemp

[Teccxpert]

I see lots of users with E6850 benching around 4Ghz on XP, how does the overclocking sit on Vista?

what are your voltages for 4.2GHz?

[Severance]

On my p5k deluxe i think Ai suite is correct temp you can see tat is way off. My cpu needed 1.58v to be stable here a week ago and now needs 1.6v in only a week so im sure that these high volts we are pumping into these things will kill them fast. these are idle temps. full load suite reads 53c and tat 40c. Im using water chilled to 12c.

[bro20000]

Had say ai suite right! Try rightmark cpu clock utility that gives right temps out!

Finaly got some time to test this baby. Been sitting in the box for 2 weeks
E6850 L22A*
P5K3 Dlx

Auto Vcore. Shows at 1.464v - Also tested @ 4.06 9x450 1.55v but not using Orthos or Prime, so not going to post that till proven stable.

[giorgos th.]

you can try running 2 instances of pi 32m at 4.06 - 1.55V if you dot want to use orthos for the moment..

I was mostly testing memory performance for now and only ran some Dual instance of Prime overnight at the above posted settings.
I will do more testing over the weekend.

1.55V can run 2 32M Super pi simutaneously for my 6850, but not on orthos and prime95

Its working perfect in Vista for me atleast, never had any problem with it, the only bad thing i can think of is Super Pi is getting some slower results. Otherwise its working flawlessly, got it to 4.320Ghz.

what are your voltages for 4.2GHz?

For my 4.2 i have to use 1.70 aprox, its not stable anyway so i can use 1.65-1.67 for it to, it crashes when i play games or so. just have to get it cooler, but i cant couse of the weather, 27c amb. here and really moisty.

[michaLcoughliN]

That's true bro20000, but an hour of stress is already a very good indication

not true at all unfortunately. When I was overclocking my E6850, It failed a few times around the 2 hour mark. then at 2 hour 30 min.

Then i bumped Vcore upto 1.525 and passed for 10+ hours through orthos.

So in conclusion your theory is wrong about "after an hour is a very good indication"

[adambomb13]

Update: I finally got stable at 4.06Ghz with everything at AUTO (default) except

vCore 1.4 and North Bridge at 1.20v

So thank you for all your help. But I really really think I have more to go because my CPU is in the negatives celcuis (sp.)

So if anyone is experienced with the Asus Striker Extreme and E6850, please pretty please i need your feedback.

I just cant belive I hit the ceiling on this setup.

Ok, now i've pushed my cpu to its Maximum atleast with Summer temps around and so on, so i will compile some info, think that it will be more informative.

Nice clocks! But that voltage would scare me!

[Infa]

Thanks! Im really getting the thing of the OC, been doin it less than a year,but i have always been computer freak

i will get Coolab Liquid pro tomorrow, maybe i will get higher clocks! with what i hope will be around 5c lower! we'll see i will update if anything changes!

that vcore is only for max clock it is really high and my watercooling cant keep up with it, around 45 idle, and 55c just in super pi but 1.66 is all ok, around 30c idle and under 60c load with new prime95.3.

Regards!

I've got the same chip (L719B014, what your last numbers). What vcore are you doing that in bios?
