Thanks for those clarifications on the temps guys. Looks like my 720be just ran cold, or the temp sensor was borked on that one, I guess. My temps seem to be in line with what has been posted by Titan. Around ambient +6-8 degrees at idle and similar to your numbers at load. Thanks again.

BTW would +6-8 degrees at idle over ambient good enuf?

got a few here.
c2 on air 3hours of prime

700e benching at 4.15 had it to 4.25 but i lost my cpu-z http://hwbot.org/result.do?resultId=910870
and my 965 c3 validated http://valid.canardpc.com/show_oc.php?id=809139 on air

whau, very nice chip!

whau, very nice chip!

The background is more nice , because the chip is don't blond

[mav2000]

Wow nice clocks and an even better background...

Can u share some of the settings with us?

[FlanK3r]

:-) Phenom II C3 vs blond babe :-)

I think you got the wrong thread

I am hoping my C3 965 (if they ever hit e-tailers here) will do close to that, but doubt it. still nice clock if it is infact air.

ROFL, that's AMD section... Sry

I actually posted a thread for people to list their 3.9 to 4ghz settings and hardly anyone posted their info in it........It turned into more talking and less results.

but nice OC :-)

[El Gappo]

ermmmm that's my old c2 not the c3. and yeah she is hot but i had to reformat and cant find that babe that likes to look at my cpu-z screens
just did that on 1.425 VID and 1.475vcore that ram timmings sucked big time tho it just wasn't having it even with stock nb speeds.

the c3 i linked is sitting pretty at 4.05 and 830mhz on the ram 7-6-6-24-1t right now with high nb clocks aswell not much of an improvement but for benching its immense

[mav2000]

I might sound stupid here but whats the difference between VID and Vcore? ANd whats the cooler u r using?

[El Gappo]

http://tinyurl.com/ydcvgnk and im using a cooler master v8 with an extra 38mm fan on the side. its always given me low enough temps and i have the bong cooler on standby

[mav2000]

Thanks, I had a look and from what little I understood its the additional V u run to get it more stable under load. Now how do I do that on my MSI?

And by the way U got some pics of that cooler setup??

[El Gappo]

hmmm yeah http://www.overclock.net/water-cooli...ng-56k-go.html bong cooler and http://www.overclock.net/7572154-post8769.html the v8

pretty sure you can set the core vid in the bios on that board but use amdod if you cant find it

[mav2000]

Thanks a lot El Gappo the destroyer....

why there is no 720BE?
is the 720BE easily hit 3.8GHz?
I tried to get it stable at 3.5GHz even at 1.485V, using Asus M4A785D-M PRO and Team Elite DDR2-800 RAM...

mav: Lower clock, better CPU score ,-) (set higher NB clock)
only for comparsion quickrun:

[chew*]

Flanker compare XP to Xp not vista or win7 when comparing cpu score

[FlanK3r]

ouch, right,i forgot it

mileage of some earlier batch of phenom 2 (0904) are not as good as later batch like 0922. never a fans of non deluxe boards of asus, their premium boards however are impressive, minus the price tag of course.
