PHENOM II AM3/DDR3 Ram Overclocking List

Chew, how much RAM voltage for this? I have 1.625V and 1700 MHz 7-7-7-21-1T (low heatsink passiv at RAMs, A-DATA 2000X). Do u think, can i higher with RAM voltages for 24/7? Want about 1800 MHz cl7...Thx

I find anything over 1.7125 creates heat.

[FlanK3r]

ok, il try max with about 1.7, i hope 1750 MHz cl7 is possible

[Tomasis]

Chew, thanks for the story. It is much harder than I thought It is easy to get angry if other call you lucky.

chew im not discrediting your hard work by any means, or saying you havent earned all your hardware. im just saying that when you come in saying how easy it is, or how bad peoples internal timings are, etc., might not always be the best way to put it since your comparing your best results from heaps of hardware to someone who has 1 rig. thats all. dont get me wrong, i love seeing what you can do, i just dont care for it when its used to down credit someone elses hard work. no harm bro,, and as always, lookin forward to more results. feel free to pm me if you want to talk more, we'll leave this thread for good ram results

and to help stay on topic, my best 32m on these supertalent 2200c8

1790mhz 6.6.6 - 1.735vdimm in bios

Sometimes you misinterpret what i'm trying to say.

Internal latencies of a board you can not tune.

So when i say that internal latencies are looser it's becasue that board is running slack aka less performance per clock to acchive a higher speed........come on 6-6-6 2000?

Look at the hwbot maxxmem comp, massman beat that 6-6-6 2000 run at 1940 with MSI

[Barr3l Rid3r]

Not bad for air...

[Skulltre]

Please update the scores

I'll come back for more once i get my hands on an X6.

For the actual table looks like I'm the first for "stable" SPI 32MB at Cas6, nice. But there should be much better achievements than that among the thread. Where have the GTX2 gone?

WC coming...

anyone knows if the STT 2000 C7 are any better than the 2200 C8?

[equinox1]

equinox1 , 938 mhz , 7-7-7-24 1t , 1.685v , 4689mhz cpu , 2x2gb corair dominator gt's , asus m4a89td pro , 890fx


winxp 64 bit chilled water

and for the interesting part of the chart

equinox1 , 979 mhz , 7-7-7-24 1t , 1.685 , 2x2gb corsair domnator gt , asus m4a89td pro , 890fx , 4774mhzcpu


spi1m nor spi32m will work on these settings in winxp 32 bit but wprime32 and wprime1024 work fine. strange?

[chew*]

Wprime = no stress on ram at all thats why 1m 32m spi won't work.

2000 c6 is the highest but not updated yet.

[m0n4g3]

What's your guys secret for 3000+ CPU-NB speeds.... i just can't seem to get 3000+ working on my cpu

Temps are roughly 18C ambient with water loop in sig?

1.4 cpu_nb?

[G.Foyle]

1.4 cpu_nb?

And more usually != better

[chew*]

And more usually != better

Yep and also keep in mind some of these guys may be on chilled water or dragging there water/air rig outside during winter. Cold plays as much of a role as voltage.

[FlanK3r]

im wonder, what will happen in winter days...4900 MHz for me think. Im using better now lower voltage 1.2V CPU-NB and 2800 MHz its ok :-)

[m0n4g3]

might try a 1.425v run a lil later although i beleive i have tried this without much luck but we will see.

Thanks for the advice chew*!

2000 c6 is the highest but not updated yet.

2000C6 is nice? what board, ram and cooling for this? Mine could go further but my mobo doesn't allow me, I have to use use it at Ganged mode to go above 1750Mhz on it.

that 1800Mhz C6 is done w/ 1.70 on air.

2 Doubts:

1-) Do you think a WC will help me w/ the RAM OC?
2-) SPI32mb is a single thread or multi-thread benchmark? Should I set affinity to only one CPU for better results?

Gigabyte you will likely hit a wall at 1880 unganged if thats what your using in your sig, however i have not used the UD5 so I can not confirm.

Board was CH4F

Cooling was water, ram was air.

Do I think water cooling will help? yah sure the cooler you can run the less stress on cpu. Too cold bugs IMC, but we are talking -80 and colder.

SPi yes is single threaded, run on one core, even try disabling cores and finding your best core but never less than 2 cores so windows has something to offload on

That sounds like a lot of work, lets just stick w/ that 1800mhz run for a while.

1880MHz wall? I think that more like IMC dependant.

at 1720mhz mine ram isn't stable at 1.65v unganged but it is at 1750mhz ganged, so thats very fun to understand, NB can reach lower clocks on ganged mode also.

Another thing, I ordered some MCP 655 + Ek Supreme HF + XSPC RX240 and some 1/2 fittings. That's just for the CPU, Do you think a MCR120 in the same loop will help me or just add some restrictions? I intend to do something like this: MCP655> RX240>CPU>MCR120>MCP655

1880 is board limit depending on revision. Ganged causes a rather large hit in performance just so you know.

I would stick with a single rad.

Yes maybe cause I choosed a high flow system, the shorter loop w/ more flow should have about the same performance, but maybe the MCR after the CPU and before the pump can help things a bit.

Pump will be fixed in a XSPS D5 reservoir w/ better flow..

[chew*]

I doubt it will make a diff but i don't keep up with times or do normal water cooling myself. I used a 3x120mm and a ln2 pot conversion to massive waterblock no res just oldschool T-line. It's preety untouchable in load apps.

[crazydiamond]

for x6 i recommend at least 3x120 worth of rads for 1.5v+... rads are hardly restrictive so cpu only loop adding a rad will have benefit as long as they are both getting fresh air

also barrel, the 2000c7 might be a tiny bit better than 2200c8, but your c8's look pretty nice. not worth trying to upgrade IMO

enough benefit or just 1C in load temperatures?
