Re: lets see your rig
No, it only allows the 6x or 8x.
Check if the Core Voltage in CPU Z is the same as it is in bios? CPU Z and what the system properties say, don't match up at all... How do you get programs such as speedfan to work correctly with a dell? i have three dells, 2 desktops and a laptop and none will show more than 1 temperature. @emosun: build me a new pc instead? i'll pay for the shipping of it do you buy your crt's new or get them from people who are disposing of them?

BIOS has the CPU voltage set to 1.35625 volts. coretemp has the more correct stats.

Re: lets see your rig
They all actually work just fine , one of the main ones on the bottom has a "video game" button on it and makes the screen brightness go up to a perfect level so you can see dark areas in games, its neat. And the pc i'll probly make for the extra monitor wont be exactly great , don't think you would want it. Would be happy to make you a nice computer if you pay for it lol.

Re: lets see your rig
like i said i got it at 384 by 8 right now, the programs are just all reporting different values. Just going from 375 to 384 MHZ jumped the idle temps about 2C.

Re: lets see your rig
Many BIOSs have the voltage control set on Auto by default which means that the CPU voltage will jump up as soon as you overclock. Remembering that doubling the voltage quadruples the TDP, this is not a good thing. Thats why if you take the voltage off auto and set it yourself, the voltage might actually lower resulting in a lower temp and lower TDP.

Re: lets see your rig
Hmm, did not know the bit about the TDP. I never checked what the auto voltage wanted my CPU at, i just OC'd it and only upped the voltage when the system seemed as if it could use it. (yes i realize that's not the best method..)
I just noticed, i have a higher OC than magnethead but a lower cpu voltage. |

Re: lets see your rig
You mean 1.35V?
![]() Magnethead, what heatsink are you using, and what is the ambient room temp? What temps are you getting now? (This is just me being curious). Remembering our equation TDP = C * EČ * F, I have estimated that your TDP jumped up from 65W to ~73.9W. So your processor is now putting out about 74W of heat. As long as you are stable though and your temps stay below 60 degrees at full load you should be all set with a successful overclock. And speaking of overclocks, I have just got my FSB up to 366MHz so now I am at 1466MHz FSB (quad pumped) and 2.56GHz core. All stock voltages. RAM CAS is still at 4 and the command rate is still at 1T. The CPU only jumped up about 3 degrees under full load. Now I am doing a 12-hour stress test with Orthos to make sure everything is 100% OK. That reminds me magnethead, check that your memory timings didn't default back if you adjusted them manually as this often happens when you take the FSB:DRAM off auto to overclock.

Re: lets see your rig
My Last OC to 2.8Ghz went terribly wrong.
Booted up fine (Temps were fine at idle and load ) - So i ran 3dmark06, During this the pc restarted and wouldnt load XP , I kept getting a BSOD. I got the XP disk and tryed to reinstall XP but i got the BSOD ( same when i chose repair ). With the help of eneles i used Boot n Nuke to totally erase the Hard Drive, Then reinstall XP. This makes me wonder if i should get the 5000+ Black Edition or the 6400+ Black Edition. I would hate to get the 5000+ To find out something would go wrong at 3.2ghz-ish.
