AI overclocking?

[Plumcuda1]

Is anyone using this? I just bumped mine up to 5% and am now running Prime95. Of course this is the first time I have used prime95 also so I am kinda clueless there also. heh I am pretty clueless about alot of things here!

Hrmmm . no one? Well I bumped the AI up to 7%. that puts me at 2.35ghz. 46c load running prime95. That ok? This overclocking is new to me. What else should I look for?

That temp is fine. You're best off keeping it south of 50C. What's your cooling solution? And is that a 90nm 3500 or 130nm?

Cooling is stock HSF with 2 120 mm case fans. Its the 90nm winchester 3500

personally I think those overclocks are so small its not even worth running it like that. Just leave it stock unless you want to really start overclocking. Just my opinion.

 

[Plumcuda1]

I thought you should start small and run prime95? then increase? no?

 

[PurdueRy]

well ya, but that ASUS utility will only let you go so far right? And its usually not much. So unless you are going to go manual....I would just leave it. But yes your right...start small...and check with prime or any load test

I think 10% is the limit in the asus utility. Then there is an adaptive over clocking .... no idea what that is.

I have used the Ai booster on my A8N-SLI, but instead of % I adjusted the HTT itself. I didn't have any problems.

well not really having any clue what that does ... I just tried the AI

Tried the AI. Didn't see any increase in performance while using it. Only when I adjusted the FSB manually did I see a difference.
