mempf, I'd really like to know if your settings are 8hr+ stable and if so at what settings. I can't seem to go past 2.65 on my Patriot XBL although it is 12hr+ prime95 two instances stable. I can boot up to windows and do video editing and do dvd burning at 2.7 with a divider or 180 but can't...

1.35-1.4 - 2.0GHz

The mobo I am using is the same one on my sig and am using a pair of Patriot XBLK 1 gig also have not rigged up the watercooling for it, just using the XP 120. I pretty much used the same setting from the 3500+ NC and tweaked a bit and used the 623-3 BIOS from DFI. You might wanna try and google...

I think you can increase the vcore a bit more. I have mine currently at 1.58 at 2.65 two instances of P95 12 hr+ stable. See, I started with 1.64 then 1.61 and all ran 12 hr+ prime stable with the xp120 with a panaflo, to top it off its summer here in Hawaii and the room temps are really hot...

I have the same mobo and I have mine at 255 x 10, 1:1 ratio. The only diff is that you have a much better ram, I have a pair of Corsair XLPro and prime95 stable for 24 hr plus. Try and set it at 2T for now and LDT at x3. You might want to check out DFI-Street forum and try out RGone's settings...

Will try today Mad...I work away from home for five days and I can only play with my systems on the weekends. Will take pics with the digital camera and hope I know how to post them. One progress I did though is that I brought my two waterblocks with me and I had them lapped, a 939 and a p4...

Madmax23, after carefully inspecting the fins and the pipes I am positive that it is not broken in any way. After doing some comparisons on three other hsf, I am inclined to the conclusion that this particular cpu runs hot. When I had it run at stock speed the temps would be at the mid to high...

I moved the fins and please don't ask me how I did it. I just did not want to spend the RMA shipping so I modified it to go over the slot #4 on the mobo. I think I still can use it on the DFI board for my prescott that is on the mail.

Thanks for the reply guys, I always follow the suggested procedure from the AS5 website for the proper amount and instalation. I got a Panaflo with the xp120 and even have it set it running to the max. I have a 120 size fan blowing at the heatsing\k area about four six inches away. Algere...

I've got a 3500+ NC on a SLI-DR overlclocked to 255 x 10, 200 fsb and I got it stable 21 hr plus on water set up. I wanted to do away with the clutter and put the xp120 on but to no avail I have not been succesful on the transition. Water temps would idle at 48 to 50, with the xp120 its up to...

How's this, whenever I removed my waterblock off of my cpu, a Prescott, with a AS5 on it and just a bead that is recommended for the cpu, it would alwas pull off with the waterblock. Even after I try so gently and shimmy the block carefully, the cpu would come off with the block. This happened...

Got it working right, thanks guys. Only problem is that the overclock on the NC 3500+ is not too promising, would not boot on 240 fsb on a 11x multi, would boot up to windows on 235 but prime95 would not last a second, it gets error instantly. **edit** Done some work and tweaking and were...

Ok cheesepoofs will do, I just tried the blend test and just fluctuates. One more thing, on the affinity, I just let alone the check mark on the "let program run on any cpu"

Don't know why but it was not running 100% as the graph indicates, it would just go up and down from 12% to 60% and most of the time it just fluctuates. Will try again to see what happens.

On the task manager, performance tab, shouldn't the cpu usage be at 100% at all times?
