    52C Too hot?

    i tend to agree that it's probably your motherboard reporting it incorrectly. seems to me if temps were to the point of being dangerous you'd see stability problems . my board reports load of 68c when running prime95 sfft. that scared me at first but since i never have any stability issues i've...

    Is overclocking illegal

    Only area I can see legal issues is if a company overclocks a lower end product and sells it as the higher clocked part.

    3500+ newcastle at its lmit?

    My 3500+ newcastle hit a wall @ 2.4ghz and no amount of vcore increase or bios tweaking would let it go further and maintain stability. That's why it's going in my in-laws computer and mine now has a venice.

    Venice OCing thread!

    OK I'm done testing with mine at least until Abit releases bios support. My board definitely has issues with the new memory controller. I get errors in Super PI even at default settings unless I run 2T command rate. -=General Info=- CPU Model Number: ADA3500DAA4BP CPU Code: LBBLE 0515FPAW...

    Venice OCing thread!

    I've tried it with loose timings and mem dividers. Memory is not the issue in my case. I really think it's my cooling holding me back. As far as prime95 stability I hit a wall at 2.6ghz with 1.47 volts. To run 2.7ghz prime stable it's taking me 1.65 volts and heat is the limiting factor for me...

    Venice OCing thread!

    I'm still hoping a bios update will help me a little. Abit hasn't made a new bios for my board since January.

    Venice OCing thread!

    This seems to be my max prime stable with my setup. I do think with better cooling this chip could hit 2.9ghz. Oh well, bit better than my newcastle. http://img259.echo.cx/my.php?image=shrug9it.jpg][/URL]
