How come I Cannot Get past 1Ghz?

[jinsonxu]

Ok, i'm running at 1Ghz at the moment. My stupid PC100 Ram wouldn't let me go further. Pah!
I've tried the multiplier of 11 but the CPU refuses to boot up at all. Anyone every tried that multiplier?

If i had better ram, i'd try 1.85V and 110Mhz for the FSB. Sigh...

Only good thing though, is that the temperature of the CPU still remains the same as when it wa sat 1.6V and 900Mhz. Ahhh....


I've run loads of other benchmarks to test the stability. It hasn't crashed once. I'll run the CPU Stability Test for a few hours more.


But here're the Sandra Results

1Ghz

2866MIPs
1402MFLOPS

MMX 3415
Floating Point & 3DNOW 4692
Memory ALU 340MB/s
Memory FPU 406MB/s

I'm sure the multipyer is locked at 10. Intel CPU's have been multipyer locked since around the P2 333.

I dunno, if so, then why this guy can do it?

He has a Duron, not a P3

edit: unless I'm missing something?

AMD Duron 700Mhz o/c 1Ghz @ 1.7v

thats a Duron isn't it

Dude got one hell of a chip. What are u using to cool it?

Heh... Not all chips will run at 1GHz... :Q

 

[jinsonxu]

I'm using the GlobalWin FOP32 cooler. It's pretty...cool huh?
