GLENBOY, whats the longest you have ran orthos so far?


I need suggestions on this, i have my ram running at DDR2-890 / 5-5-5-18 / 2.1v (stock 1.9v), they feel pretty warm to the touch, on the edge of calling it hot. I bought a ram cooler but it doesn't fit. Should i lower it to 2.0v, do you think it would be stable, or do you think its fine as it is?

hiya thatguy its still going now whilst i'm typing, now 38 mins now, its weird i had an e8500 and that required low volts but ran hot, and this one is a little hot in my opinion considering its only 1.272 vcore whereas the q750 i had ran cool but required more volts , on a side note i think your more than safe with your ram volts

E8200 (Q745A705) @ 4.2Ghz (1.288v VCore)

Sweet chip. Mine is doing similar but only prime stable tested at 9x multi <1.28vcore.

I'm about to switch to 8x and explore top stable clock under 1.3vcore.

Mind if I ask your other voltages - NB/VTT? How about gtl settings for that clock?

NB @ 1.55v
FSB @ 1.20v
NB / CPU GTL @ auto

Is it stable large fft's ? at 525 fsb

Q746A513 E8200s are nothing special... like my Q744A761 E8400 was, 4G @ ~1.36v



max fsb on p5k3 deluxe

i hope my Q746A512 E8400 will better... i will got it in a few days...
