My memory id think to be premium:

http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showpr...odid=MY-082-OC

I went from 12x250 to 13x250 last nite... and didnt last very long in prime... then i upped at same time CPU from 1.4 stock to 1.45V and mem 2.1 to 2.15... should i of done both coz now wont know if was mem or cpu holding back

Aha allmost forgot regarding memory what speed is my memory at atm??

13x250 (3250)
Mem divider @ 800MHZ (highest option)

Nvmonitor says 1000mhz
CPUz says 464x(2)

When running Memtest in dos says 541x(2)

WTF??? so which is it??...

the 12 multi means total cpu / 6 so would mean 3000 = 500 = 1000

But 13 multi makes divier 6 or 7??.... so could be 541 or 464... but which ... seems nvmonitor is completely wrong then

Shed any light?



you should be right @929mhz with a /7 controler @13x250....Download CPU-Z and check your timing with it ....

Note: the X2 memory controler likes Vcore above 1.45 when going over 3.3Ghz , it was most likely the CPU Vcore wasnt raised enuff the first time .Make shure your Idle and Load temps are good...30c-36c @idle is decent for up to 1.53Vcore . Good air/water set up a must....Take it slow..



MADMANDont remove the IHS ,If you do anything Give it a normal Lapping or GO EXTREME Sand LAP it with 200grit wet/dry sandpaper to 1 1/2mm or 2/64 of an inch, "its thickness will then be a hair thinner then the board it sits on" ,Dont forget to finish it with 600 and 1200 and 2000 for final finish ...this will cut the temps down by 8c to 10c easy no Lie.

I lapped my First 6000+ IHS to 2/64th of an inch , and Temps stayed @ 23c Idle and 44C load with a thermalright 120 @ 22c Ambiant ..The chip im running right now @ 3.47ghz 6000+ is @ 1.58vcore and 28c as im typing with water after one more week i will super lap it. For these chips i will no longer remove IHS after ruining a 5600+ and seeing no change in temp between thin IHS and No IHS on my other 6000+...One Day ill post a run down with pics of Modded IHS and 6000+ Bare neked Id rather Sand it thin than remove for now on. My Old 6000+ has chipped corner but still runs... this happened after removing waterblock for like 15th time going for better cooling .

Here are two Screens of same 6000+' on same water set up...1st is with no IHS @3.45ghz 1.56vcore...Ambiant room 22c..




2nd is @ 3.45ghz with 1.58vcore , I bummped the Vcore up a notch and IHS ON Ambiant room 22c.....I will be modding Another 6000+ soon to severe IHS thinness



This is why i am leaving IHS on and lapping it very ,very,Extreme very thin, Verse unlidding it...
