I know its going great, but im wondering how its doing in comparison to others. Currently @ 12*200=2400mhz 1.75 vcore. Everything runs great at 1.725 vcore except it locked up ~40 min into Prime95. Think its worth the higher Vcore if thats th eonly thing that didnt work? Ah well, im pretty damn happy with this thing :)

Also thought id get a post going in here :)
 
I got my 1700+ up to 1.9 (11x175) and thats the board limit w/ no voltage increase.
 
cali, I would think you have alot more head room, since your only at 1.75. I'm thinking maybe 2.6-7 maxed out. Push for the 2.6, you know you want it ;) btw, do you have the cooling to go with it?
 
It all depends. What kinds of CPU temperatures are you getting? If they're safe, I'd safe push that Vcore and your clocks higher. If not, stay where you are. 40 minutes into Prime95 isn't perfect, but it's probably more stress than your computer will ever see. So...up the voltage if possible and clock that CPU higher!
 
Dude, but up the voltage I have been pushng my 1700+ @ 2400MHZ @ 1.825V for over a year now...Stable as helll Passes prime for 48+ hours :)

And I have air cooling :p

Do you have the DLT3C?
 
Well, i think im going to keep it at 2400mhz 1.75vcore. I tried 2500mhz at 1.75 and it booted perfectly but computer randomly crashed when surfing internet :( . Booted with 1.775 volts and seemed to be fine but ran 3dmark2k1SE and it locked computer. I know its got lots more in it as just for fun i tried 2600mhz (220*12)@1.825vcore and it ran 3dmark01 fine (score of 17250) but the temp was 59C and i figured that was way too much. At 2400 it gets max of ~52 which still might be too much (bad case airflow, need a new one but not buying today). Im pretty happy for a $50 CPU i got a year ago :). Wonder how much difference a barton at that speed would make though...
