    2 gigs, the official x2 voltage pwner of [H]

    Nice to see a Manchester core at 2.8Ghz! I have been running my X2 3800+@2.8Ghz 1.4v for the last six months with no problems - Though I've just changed MOBOs from one with an AGP to PCIe (ASRock 939SATA-2) to accommodate a 7800gt so hopefully I will hit a similiar figure again (I have read...

    Athlon 64 X2 3800 - Can't change CPU voltage?

    it will give you the options to alter voltage - if it is available - and let you control temps while you overclock.

    Barton 2500+ to A64 venice performance improvements?

    I went from a 2.4Ghz XP to a 2.5Ghz Athlon 64 3000+ (Ocd) with my 9800 Pro. I saw a jump in 3dMark01 from 17000 to 21000, a few hundred points in 03 and nothing to mention in 05 (03 and 05 are GPU dependant so are not really effected by the speed of the CPU). My Athlon 64 upgrade allowed...

    X2 4600+ OC results?

    Hi I'm running my X2 3800+ at the same settings. Your load temps are fine - I get a little lower but I'm running slightly lower voltage. I don't think you should worry about the memory you will only get a few percent at most with tighter timings @ 233Mhz. Have you tried running 1:1 at timings...

    Controlling fan on HP Compaq

    I have a HP Compaq nx9005 with an AMD Athlon running between 1.8Ghz and 532Mhz. I am using RMClock to control the PowerNow! function and lock it at 532Mhz (Enough for browsing, using Word and Excel etc.) and have reduced the voltage to 1.05v, without any stability problems, which ensures the...

    X2 3800+ Overclocking

    What heatsink will you be using? Use a max voltage of 1.55v (preferably 1.5v) and you should reach between 2.4 and 2.8Ghz.

    Best 120mm Fan for XP-120 ??

    I have found a link to a guy selling these Silverstones on eBay... Silverstone on eBay I'm going to buy one - It will save me the money of having to buy a separate speed controller.

    Best 120mm Fan for XP-120 ??

    I'm in the UK and about to upgrade to an SI-120 so I will have a look around as well. I've just had a look on overclockers.co.uk and they have a YS-Tech fan pumping out 125CFM with I think would work well with a speed controller. Have you got your XP-120? If not where are you getting it...

    Max HTT for a Neo2 Platinum?

    Remember the Neo2 undervolts by a little and I would recommend between 1.55 and 1.6v for the CPU. My highest HTT is 343x8 but I personally think the memory controller on your Winnie will restrict you to around 331. My old Winnie 3000+ would only hit 321.

    Tell us about your first overclock

    The Turbo button on old PCs was designed to SLOW the PC down! To 8Mhz. Some old ISA expansion cards didn't run above 8Mhz so the Turbo button was introduce to allow the system to be underclocked to make them work! Oh they were daft old days! ;)

    X2 Overclocking power?

    I'm running 2.8Ghz on air with an XP90 but it is all in the luck of the draw! I have been reading other forum and would say average is about 2.5 to 2.6Ghz and the Toledo cores are slightly (I say slightly) better overclockers.

    Need help with clockgen

    My experience with Clockgen is you start at the processor default eg. 200x10 for X2 3800+ PCI/AGP is unlocked but if you alter the BIOS to says 210x10 it is automatically locked. Some up the FSB/HTT, loosen your memory timing and lower the divider, change HTT multiplier to x3. Boot into...
