, I wish you the best of luck for your OC. 🙂 What kind of RAM did you purchase, and which mobo and processor do you have?

2.53 SL6S2 on an albatron PX845PEV Pro. Same kingston value ram here too. Just not with those magical chips you have 🙁 Right now I'm at 3.27 though at 1.5v actual. Just my ram holding me back right now so I'm hoping as soon as I get some better ram I can catch you 😉

What do you use to keep the condensation off your pins and mobo when you run your prometia?
Thanks WarCon! Luck of the draw was finally in my favor again.. 😉 The Prometeia really does not have condensation issues. It has a heater grid built into the back housing. I do place closed cell foam in the back housing as well as in and around the socket area just to be on the safe side, but it is not necessary.

Still currently stess testing @ 183MHz FSB / 1.550V... 🙂 I switched from Prime95 to CPU Burn-In. It is a cut above Prime95 as far as producing heat... Very intense.
 
Nice oc, makes me want to get rid of my 2.4 SL6EZ @ 3.06 and get a mvid 2.533. Haven't seen any mvids here in Denmark yet though 🙁

Sonny, how long would you run CPU Burn-In? I might try this out when I get home today. 🙂

I take it 183FSB was the max stable @1.55v? I noticed similar thing with my BH-7 that it'll run my 2.4B @189FSB all day @1.55v, but just to run @190FSB, I'd have to give +10% voltage... 😕 I also notice that Abit seems to have the undervolting somewhat under control with the new bios (it's still there, but it seems to undervolt less - does that make sense..? lol..🙂). The temp still reports way too high tho... :disgust:
 
I ran CPU Burn-In overnight. I have a temp probe installed against the IHS on the 2.53, and it is interesting to see the temp swings using different burn-in apps and 3D benchmarks. For example, 3DMark2001 is more intensive than 3DMark03.

I am currently @ 3505.4MHz 184.5MHz FSB / 1.550V. 😉 I just had to hit 3.5GHz with safe VCore. To me, it is incredible with quiet air-cooling. There really is no point in installing the Prometeia since my RAM is now @ 461.2MHz / 2-3-3-7. To run 3.8GHz, I would be forced to drop to 1:1. Now when the ABIT Canterwood makes it's way to me...... 😀

Heh, I missed this one... 🙂 It's not my Winchester Ranger 12 gauge pump you have to worry about... I would be more concerned about the AR15 or Glock 17.. 😉

 
Oh man!,you have weapons of mass destruction there:Q.I better high tail it out quick,but nothing can run away from those.🙂

I received a 2.66 P4 C1 stepping SL6S3 in a new Dell 4550 (on Hot Deals Forum, of course) and see that it also is a multi VID chip.
I hope it does as well as the others.

how you see if your p4 is a multi VID chip?
