2v too much for a mobile 2500 24/7?
I know a bit of a dumb question, but right now I'm priming well at 200x14, 2v set in the bios. Temps around 38C~40C w/ my water cooling (I need a better pump). I'm looking at trying to maintain this system until the 939's and PCI express are rather mainstream before upgrading again...But I've never pushed a cpu this hard before so I'm not sure how much this kills it vs. a much lighteer OC.
I'd say your ok to put 2v through it, with watercooling I wouldnt go over 2.15v. PCI Express wont be out for a while, at least a year if not several years. Are those temperatures under load? If your looking for a new pump get the danner Mag3 or the swiftech MCP600. I've had a tbred b 1700+ (stock 1.52v) run at 2.03v for over a year, and had no problems with it.
Yes, those temps are under load. As of right now, HW mon. says 40.5C. I'm actually looking at getting an Iwaki MD-15.
Edit: I should mention, those are load under prime95. Priming right now.
2 volts should be fine IMO. These are standard Barton cores, just cherry-picks. It's not like AMD is building these from a low-volt design.

its the second time your asking... up the vcore already!
Ah......PCI express will be out in Q2 2004.......mobo's, gcards, the lot.Originally posted by gkiing

Good to know. 2v. 2600mhz. Quite nice. I need a vmod.
200*14 = 2800MHz? That's awesome! Mobiles rock.

2800 craped out during prime. So did 2700. But 2700 lasted longer then 2800.
2600 is 100% prime stable @2v...haven't tried a lower vcore yet, no intention to either. I'd like to get a 3ghz SS, but I can't get into windows that fast...
2600 is my best cpu yet.
Try one of the Windows FSB utilites if you're looking for a screenie...I'd like to get a 3ghz SS, but I can't get into windows that fast...

Get the newest version of clockgen, np with the LP or Infinity - I use it on my Infinity all the time.

Why run 13x200 on a Lanparty? Wouldn't 10.5/11x250 be better :d or if your mem doesn't go that high 11.5x230! either way, thats a real nice OC and 2v shuldn't be that dangerous. Keep pushing!

Can't do 230 stable. Even with 3.3v vdimm. One stick of corsair xms pc3000 (bh-6), and one stick of corsair xms pc3200 (ch-5). 2x512 sticks and running in single channel right now.
Not sure why. I need to do some fiddling yet. I was running my 2100 before it died (my error) @ 220x10.5, but it seems that even with an fsb of less then 220 but higher then 200 and having a multi to give me as close to 2600 but below it so I know the cpu speed is stable, prime95 seems to still crap out on me.
