For a friend's computer:
can somebody give me a quick help on what i should pick as rsb to dram ratio?
I'd want it 1:1 right?
I got some ocz 1150 mem , so i want the max out if it to be honnest.
What kind of settings could i use?
I thought about 9x400 to get it 3.6 ghz and mem on what then...
Update your bios m8.
I have the same setup, almost. I have the ultra 90. A friend of mine bought the same setup with the 120.
I had the bios version 903 running before and got much higher temps then the new bios. Now stress on 3.3 ghz it runs to max 50, before it runs to max 65 on 3.3 ghz.
I...
I got it stable running 3.5 Ghz, 9 times 388, mem at 777, now wiht vcore voltage at 1.45 and dram to 2.04 , in the hw monitor of the bios he says it's runnin at 2.14. Since I installed the new bios update, 907, the temps have dropped drastically, to 45 tops on stress test.
The rest of the bios...
everest, coretemp or speedfan. Next to that you could run Cpuz and Gpuz to see more settings and next to that you can stress test with prime 95, take the 25.. versions, you can run 4 torture tests at the same time for all the cores.
alright, here's the deal.
As i'm getting too high temps when I clock anywhere above 3,3 Ghz, i'm thinking of buying a watercool system.
As I'm new to overclocking I thought of buying a complete system like the thermaltake bigwater or the tribe. With a bit of reading, I found out that those...
Did you try and give your mem a bit more voltage?
Really small steps up helped enormously over here.
That and core voltage. Next to that I disabled every other feature as spectrum, dram boosters, vanderpool technology (except if your running 2 operating systems or something) c1e, execute...
I editted some settings.
Put the vcore on 1.4something
the sb on 1.6 , in windows he said it was already on that
nb on 1.4
2.1 in bios on dimm but in everest he says it get's 2.2
disabled all the stuff like c1e, max cpuid, ram boost, vanderpool, cpu tm function, execute disable bit
the mem...
exactly what i was thinking, but i guess i don't give that much about waranty on a chip to be honnest.
But what about ur voltages? Could you post em so i get a bit of idea, cuz i really can't run above 400 without getting even higher temps. I can't seem to find out if it could be some hardware...
Cool, but I don't think my cooler would be that much worse it would explain those temperatures, I think I jacked the vcore temp up too high to get it stable working while it would work on less I'd guess but have to jack up the Dimm voltage and some other voltages, well, at least I hope.
Maybe...
Ultra 5+ Silver Thermal and thermalright 90 ultra and a Scythe Kaze fan.
And room is somewhere about 20to25 degrees celcius i guess. The MB is at 38 degrees.
I'm running prime95 to stress test it.
What can cause these temperatures?
should i put the cooler on it again and do the thermal paste...
Right, don't have much time to test much now.
Got it stable running with voltage of 1.5 and bus speed of 390.
My cpu hits the 70 and even once in a while the 71 degrees. I got the g0 stepping and 71 should be the max. But i read you can safely go to 85 even without having much trouble or...
