Try E5200 Overclocking!

**onthepulse** · 07-03-2009, 07:21 PM

Love this chip. Mine has a VID of 1.2875 - which seems really high to me. Also not quite sure what a safe voltage for the 45nm chip is on air?

Broke my HSF so had to go back to the stock Intel cooler

But even then, orthos stable @ 3.75GHz (10x375). Can boot into windows and run super pi all the way up to 4GHz

Check out my new site @ http://xtreemcom.com

I've just bought chip, which can do this:

4,3GHz @ 1,4v orthos stable on box cooling

fsb wall 374MHz

I should get it in a few days

**Maxxpower** · 07-05-2009, 07:31 AM

I'm Going to buy a new cheap oc-station composed by:

E5200
DFI Blood Iron P45
Kgstn HyperX PC8500
sapphire HD4830

i hope i can put it under SS as soon as possible..so i'll post my results...

Nice oc there guys!

Edit: Had to dial down my 3.5GHz oc. Even though it passed linx, prime95, and memtest I would get 'windows has recovered from a serious error' pop-ups and once I even got a memory_management bsod which tells me it's my cheap ram. I'm back to 3.3GHz(60c on prime95 load). Only had to up the vcore one notch from stock.

Edit: Hmm that's funny, to get my 3.3GHz oc stable this time I had to raise vcore to 1.31250. I'm pretty sure it was stable before by just raising vcore one notch up from stock. Guess oc'ing and all that linx and prime95 testing took its toll on my cpu.

i recently swapped up for a new cpu, the intel e5200, i was able to OC it to 4.0ghz (320x12.5) at 1.43volts to the cpu. ram is at 4:5ram ratio, 800mhz.

temperatures under Prime95 is 61c to 67c.

what does everyone think? is it safe to keep it running under such conditions? is the voltage to the cpu too high? or the temperature?

i believe i can push it more but idk if that is advisable? intel lists the thermal temp at being 74c, and while i am no expert, i am sure i should keep below 74c? how much further below , temperature wise?

how much voltage from the default voltage could someone overclock before its dangerous? even if the temperature is cool?

p/s of misc info:
-mobo: abit ip35 pro
-ram: 2gb (2x1) ram of crucial ballistix ddr800 (6400) at 4:5ratio with 555-18 timings. i believe it is running at 800mhz
-OCZ 600watt psu with 80% eff. rating.

what other info do i need to share? i have yet to adjust anything besides the vcore.

**PatRaceTin** · 07-20-2009, 05:29 AM

my new cheap oc pc would be

E5200
EP45T-UD3R
Crucial Value DDR3
EK Supreme LT Block

I hope for 4.5Ghz with orthos stable

**leinad78** · 07-20-2009, 10:38 AM

So, got the next E5200... I guess its my tenth or so

ive bought another one a few weeks ago which could do 4,6ghz with 1,42V but sadly i cracked that one

Very lucky to get to those clocks with that voltage! What VID do you have? 4GHz @1.1xV is pretty crazy. You must have a nice and friendly board also...

**leinad78** · 08-03-2009, 08:13 AM

VID is 1.225V

i bought the cpu pretested in a german forum, thats the best way to get one of those real good ones

Jealous...

**Blue Storm** · 08-04-2009, 01:13 AM

here is my bad piece with H2O

I tried Vcore 1.88V, but it didn't do nothing

**leinad78** · 08-05-2009, 08:09 AM

Sadly i cracked that chip

i guess it was one of the best e5200 worldwide.

Wow, that's amazing. My best result on air is 4633 MHz SuperPI stable.

***Deimos*** · 08-26-2009, 05:52 PM

I am so incredibly jealous of all you guys hitting 4.5Ghz+ with just <1.5V. And with only air/water. Thats crazy.

I always thought that Intel purposefully removed/changed capacitors on package design to prevent > 350fsb.

Big congrats VanDynck for 5.4Ghz on E5200 - I never imaged THAT would be possible. A lot of E5200's struggle to reach just 4Ghz.

**1200W** · 08-27-2009, 05:10 AM

Heres my version :

One mhz more and it crashes . But at this mhz its almost rocksolid

Sounds like FSB wall.

**1200W** · 08-27-2009, 03:06 PM

With UD3P i saw 340 with low multi. But i havent tried the max with P5K

. But ill try it hopefully in tuesday

**Unrealer** · 09-02-2009, 04:07 AM

Anyone with E5400?

E5400 ES @ 4Ghz (364x11) 1.26v

(the FSB WALL is around 387)

Almost 10h stable....

Ill decrease the vcore until i get around 2h Orthos stable, is enough for me.

and:

i set the vcore randomly, i need to test it more....

**Gameman** · 09-04-2009, 04:24 PM

Not spectacular like I had hoped but fully stable every day and no bluescreens like with my older E2160

failed orthos unfortunately but passed some Everest System Stability testing

However I think decent for 87.00 canadian..

Same score as my E8600 at 4ghz in Everest CPU benchmark

Idle 27-35 and average 47 at 100% load with Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro...
and 1.51 vcore in Bios

PWM seems a little hot though without the old intel cooler and Northbridge was in the way when I first tried to install Arctic cooler - heatsink too big..but cooler fit anyway

may try for 4.2 but 4 ghz is more than enough for me considering it's originally 2.5 ghz at stock...

this was a real bargain

oh, and VID 1.22

enjoy

my next CPU the E5400 or E7400

EDIT: PS - what does it mean if your FSB VTT in Guardian is all over the place????

Time for a new power supply???

Thanks

Would have expected you to get to 4GHz at lower vCore. Especially living in Manitoba and with a 1.22 vID

Mine needs about 1.38V for 4GHz - not 1.1v like some other lucky posters.

Not sure about the fluctuating vTT? May want to swap your PSU with a mate and see if it helps...

You may need to tweak a little more. I actually found my performance improved a little over time. Some sort of burn in... reaching stability after a week or two.

Thanks will do that.... the power supply is the last remnant of the old build (Celeron Single 478) but that ws almost 7 years ago.... the PSU could be on it's last legs.....
I can grab me another 460 Watter for 40.00 bucks brand new across the street.. will probably do that....

Yes, I keep a fire extinguisher nearby just in case...:

Thanks

Edit: now that I think of it I'm just glad it could reach 4 ghz at all... I heard of some people geting some really bad batches where it wasn't even stable at 3.5 and 3.7 no matter what they did..

At least it's stable for every day use (for everything I do anyway) ...it just won't pass Orthos...
at 1.5 volts I don't expect it to last more than a few months anyway...

After this I'm gonna try the E7400 or E7500 depending on which is cheaper at the time then it's on to the Quads

I'm just not looking foward to having to haul out the ol floppy (so to speak) and update the Bios.... I'd hate to lose the board...

:eek

**Unrealer** · 09-05-2009, 04:52 AM

for 24/7

E5400 ES @ 4Ghz (364x11) 1.248v

im using a TRUE (lapped with 2x1000rpms fans) but is very hot

:

That's more what I was looking for - especially the voltage...

yours will last a decade while mine will probably last a month or two if i'm lucky

:
Either that or the E7400

Edit:

I know this is off topic, but since I'm here, does anyone know the maximum Quad core FSB for the T2RSB Plus X48???

Can it do 470???? I wanted a Q9550 but only if it can do 4 ghz...

If it can't hold it's water I can always put it in the Rampage Formula just for the hell of it...it's good for at least 500 fsb...i think

To get back on topic though the E5200 seems to be a steal for just 87.00 and stable 4 ghz.. My E8600 cost 400.00.....

Thanks

**Leeghoofd** · 09-05-2009, 12:08 PM

Why not go E6300, I had a nice one : E6300 tested for gaming it's more than enough and 4ghz should be a no brainer at low volts (with high FSB action)
