644MHz OC is very decent...although my 3000+ tops out at 2.75 (305x9) with 1.55v...I bet you can get it a little higher.jerramaya said:
Is it E3 or E4?
I got 2.7 stable on my 3000+ venice @1.6v on air. I think it's a dang good OC....especially on this supposedly crap mobo I'm using.
You won't know how much more you can get unless you push it. You're not going to hurt anything unless you crank your voltage up too much.

its a E4 but i have 2gb ram (512x4) you have 1gb
mine does 2.7 with 1 gb ram maybe more didnt overclocked further , so should i use more voltage ? put ram on ddr 133 or stay with this combination ?
anything under 1.6v is safe for venice ? or under 1.65v ?

Most people top out between 2.5 and 2.7 with a 3000+ Venice
I am trying to figure out why you are using a 3x HTT Multi at 220FSB you should only use 3x passed 250FSB
Also 220 with the default cpu 9x multi is 1980 Mhz so I am confused as to how you achieved 2.4 Ghz in the first place.

2.44GHz aint bad, but there SHOULD be more room left in it.
Can't remember the stepping, but my old 3000+ Venice did 2.96GHz (329x9) on air using the Zalman CNPS7700CU...can't remember the voltage either for the life of me...damn that was one nice chip.

my FSB is 270 not 220
and if anyone can tell me the settings to try to touch 2.5 mark with 2gb (512x4) ram clocked not underclocked .
Also my A8N-SLI mobo doesnt have any option above 1.55v
any suggestions on that other than changing the motherboard ?HighwayAssassins

Oh I misread your post you were speaking about your DDR speed
As for the volts look for an over-voltage option somewhere around where you set the normal voltage. My MSI K8N board had this feature.
i'll go ahead and post this since no one else has.

is one you may find quite useful. If you know your stepping and week, you can see what others are gettin' with your same chip. If you didnt follow a guide, i'd recommend (cf)Eclipse's guide (also found in that thread). That should be enough to get you a bit further. the 3000+ is a pretty good overclocker. I used that thread to see what my 3200+ would do and how about gettin' it there and now i'm stable at 2.8GHz.

I'm pretty sure that's all the Asus offers for vcore...which is why people looking to get the most out of their OC's typically end up going with Abit or DFI motherboards.

What brand?
Not that many PSU's out there that are "rated" at 650W+ are actually capable of putting out that much power under normal operating conditions. A lot of PSU's on the market are rated at their efficiency and wattage maximum at operating temperatures that are FAR below what you/they would normally encounter running in a closed case home computer.
What brand of PSU is it and what are some of the more in depth specs on it? I can gaurantee you that it's not capable of close to 680W in the average case under load...most aren't. The raw wattage isn't even that important, it's the Amps on the 12v rail(s) that can make or break a system nowadays. I've seen many 400W PSU's with stronger 12v rails then a lot of 500W'ers out there. Even a highend gaming computer running SLI'd 7800GTX's doesn't even come CLOSE to sucking 500W of power, let alone 600 or 700W...the need for something that "big" really isn't there, I'd much rather grab a much more steady 500W PSU and be better off.
