AM2 FX62 Overclocking Action!
AM2 FX62 Overclocking Action!
I found that this FX62 was a pretty good overclocker. I haven’t had a chance to overclock it on water yet.
First I tested it on my -95C cascade, it lasted all of about 20 seconds, yes it has a cold bug, froze up around -40C 
I then put it on my -30C cooler and it ran well. Nice stable speed of 3636MHz. I had to keep my HTT down because of the cold bug so I used the 18 multi, basically 202x18 using 1.58V.
The memory was running at 808MHz.
Hardware used:
FX62
Foxconn NF5 motherboard
2x1024MB Corsair 8500C5
2x 7900GTX
OCZ 700W PSU
PCIce -30C CPU cooler
The Foxconn mobo is a pretty good board, very stable, easy to overclock, and very forgiving. I like this AM2 stuff. The CPU needs very little voltage, must be that there is no stress on the chip with the High Latency DDR2

Conroe...
The conroe uses 4mb's of L2, it is a SSE monster. 2 cores, extra 64 bit line. About it. Will be a great multi-tasker. But its really not that impressave.

The cool thing about this motherboard is the PCIe clocks. The two x16 buses default at 125MHz as apposed to 100MHz. If you have 7900GTX cards you will find you can overclock the core on those cards a lot higher with this feature. I gained 100MHz overclock on my 7900 cards running in SLI.

It's from AMD but it's far from a engineering sample.
It's just what you'd call bare instead of retail box.
Trust me, I have much better luck when I buy a retail box compared to the Bare chips I get from AMD

Do you think DDR2 beat the DDR here ?

Not at my particular settings. I looked at either Shamino or Visionarys 3D06 CPU score. Theirs was done at about the same CPU MHz only they used a FX60 and 2-2-2 memory timings. Their CPU outscored mine by a little.

By the way. You have to have new cpu mounting unless your just useing a heatsink.
I made up some make shift brackets for my Vapo mounting kit.
The new boards have 4 holes, pretty good for even pressure on the core.

Another CBugged FX 
Bad news for AMD, I think that the people that have try FX-60, will not buy the FX-62.
What a sad, I think that AMD must adjust this problem, otherwise many people will boicot this chip.

OPP doesn't do air, as far as I remember.
