E7600 overclocking

[jtisgeek]

I have a chance to swap my e6300 for this e7600 I like that fact that it has a highest muilt so even at 400 front side it's like 4.6.

If it will go that high may be worth it over the e6300 I have which will do 4.3 plus 3mb vs 2mb win.

Has anyone here pushed one of these in the 4.5 plus territory? When do wolf-dales hit the wall?

on water you might even hit 500 fsb
but nothing is guaranteed.

Yeah well I'll probably try for it and see what happens 4.5 or higher at 500ish would be sweet. Maybe I get a sweet chip and get close to 5ghz

I have a really early e7200 and took it to 4.1, so it may be within reach. Will take a lot of voltage though

 

[jtisgeek]

Yeah it's all play don't really care of I kill it. I run my 45nm e6300 at 1.5 which is probably bad 24/7 but I have good temps on water so who knows.

45nm E6300? I thought they were all Conroe and therefore 65nm.

Theres a newer penryn E6300 "pentium", 2MB L2/2.8gHz I think

Yeah intel makes it hard but a e6300 is a Pentium dual core now that is a cut down wolf-dale with only 2mb cache. 2.8 1066 bus.

 

[jtisgeek]

I think that's all it wants going to play with fsb some more but I couldn't get anything in windows at higher.

4.4 is nice for a wolfdale, is that on air or water

 

[jtisgeek]

On water still have to run close to 1.5 v core on it thought. Never get over 50c in prime so am happy. Got a small gain over the e 6300 but hey it's all fun.

I play star trek online e7600 at 4.4 compared to my e 6300 at 4.3 got me a usable 2 fps more at 1900 by 1200 according to fraps.
