Finally got my "slow" stick of ram in so I could jump start the system.

Running at 10.5x195 = 2050 Ram at 2 2 2 5 right now

Tried 10.5x200 and was getting lockups.

Sisoft reports the voltage going to the cpu @ 1.62


I had to run to work so I havnt gotten a chance to up the voltage, so a few questions before I go home later and put the screws to it.



1) This is a Tbred-B but its an early one, has anyone had experience with these to know the approximate overclock

2) For a 2100 + is a 2050 @ stock a slow overclock?

3) Can I go as high as 1.85 without really having to worry about frying this puppy? Its a brownie so Im not sure if the earlier ones were more fragile or not.

I know voltage etc is discussed in a number of threads but I was curious relative to these earlier processors. Im thinking at 1.85 Core I might be able to get it up to 2200 at best, so unfortunately this isn't one of the better overclockers.

a lot og T-Bred B's are getting in the 2.3-2.4 range. if it's a T-Bred A, you might not get too much more. you should be safe at 1.85v.

Personaly I would'nt go over 1.8volts, and I would not trust SiSoft voltage recordings either. I would expect at least 2.1-2.2gigs from it with 1.8volts. Also, you are running with aggressive ram timmings and I hope you have the best PC3500 money can buy at those settings :)

I have some XMS3200 LL stuff so its working pretty sweet


what application would give good accurate voltages? or should i just assume that 1.8 is volting at 1.8

Ok, well wonders never cease


11x200 = 2.2ghz @ 1.75 volts


now the question is, will it go faster than this? =)


After I finish this set of burning and get a good idea of stability, Im gonna go 11x201 etc in increments, with the ram going up 1 at a time, I think I will stop at 1.8V wherever I get

turns out according to the bios its getting over volted


bumpe down to 1.7 (1.75 according to bios) and gonna prime it @ 10.5x200 for a while
