I need to get of bit information on OC this cpu for my bro. What kind of clocks are we looking at with air cooling? what are the safe temps and volts i can put through this?

thanks

Forgot to add his core name is a winchester
 
So what CPU/mobo exactly is it?

The 3200+ was for at least 5 different CPUs from what I remember and can find.

Athlon XP 3200+ Socket A

AMD Sempron 3200+ AM2

AMD Sempron 3200+ S939

AMD Athlon 64 3200+ S754

AMD Athlon 64 3200+ S939
 
If it's a Winchester, it's a Athlon64 939.

I had one of those. I got mine to 2.7 with 1.4 volts if I remember right. That was with a thermalright XP90. Which, back in the day was a good air cooler.


With a stock cooler you'd probably get around 2.5 give or take. Try to keep temps under
50c.

Here is a reply for someone else that was doing their first OC. It might help. There are various guides throughout the net that might be more helpful though.

Four things to consider on an DDR1 AMD system.

FSB=Front side bus
HTT=Hypertransport thechnology
Memory speed
CPU multiplier

Now your FSB at stock is 200

Your HTT at stock is 1000
Your memory speed is 400 at stock
Your CPU multiplier is 10

Your processors clock speed is 2.0 or 2000.

To get to that clock speed you multiply your FSB(200) by your CPU multiplier and that gives you a clock speed of 2.0 or 2000.

Your HTT multiplier is 5.
You multiply your FSB speed of 200 by 5 and you get an HTT speed of 1000.
You can lower this multiplier to say 4x or 3x but try to keep it as close to 1000 without going over.

To get get your memory speed you multiply your FSB speed of 200 by 2 and you get a memory speed of 400.

Everything pretty much rides on your FSB speeds, except when you get into memory dividers. Then it's your CPU speed divided by a certain number. There is a simple formula for this of which I can't remember.

Edit, I just Looked at your sig and it looks like you have experience OCing. But the info's in this post if you need it.

Edit2, I just looked at some old screenshots and It was 1.47Vcore, not 1.4.
