3700+ San Diego Overclocking

[jaythespacehound]

Hey all,
Just got my 3700+ and am curious to see how it'll go 🙂

I currently have it prime stable at 2500 (10*250) but had to up the V to 1.45 :/
Turns out i have the bad CBWE stepping (revision dh-e6 faulty toledo).
Which needs a fair bit of V and gets rather hot. *shrugs*

Anyway, currently running at 49C under load, which is pretty horrid already.
(Well at least I think it is, BIOS and everything else reports system at 49 and CPU at 36 but I have the feeling that's reversed heh)

Can someone who remembers quickly yell out the rec max safe V and Temp?
IIRC it's somewhere around 1.60 and 65C but I'm hoping someone knows.
Cheers,
Jay

well, things aren't looking too bad. Prime's fine at 2600 Temp at 48C runs oblivion without crashes 😀
Up we go again

Nope 2600 seems to be all it will do at 1.45 and at the moment I'm happy with that (very actually, didn't think this chip would make it)

If you're willing to push the vcore a bit further, mine is stable at 3ghz on air at 1.55v.

Hmm not going to happen with this chip 🙂
Even at 1.55 I can't get it stable at 2700

What motherboard, ram, timings, chipset voltage, ldt voltage, htt multi, the works?
