Just got a tbird 750@900 what cools it the best

Ok, Just a question for you: What motherboard? because with the heatsinks that came out this past week, and a good fan, i have a tbird750 running stable @ 1050 on an abit raid kt7. (that's 1.85v and 10.5 * 100 multiplier). and All i have are two 80mm fans, the stock PS fan, and another little fan on the mobo over a chipset.

so push it harder!! haha.. it can do it! easily.. and this is at 50 to 60 degrees Celcius! (I got it down in the 40's now! woohoo)

for the heatsinks and Fan, this is from PCnut.com support:

"Better heatsins have been released for those processors in the last week or so. The Global Win FOP38 or the Alpha PAL 6035 would work a little better. Also, adding a better fan (Like the Delta 38CFM) to the heatsink will lower temps 2-4C."

now if i could just get my girlfriend to do a few more tricks, I could finish up with that nvidia i need.. hmmm..

Good luck!

blue-ish core T-bird here...works great.

 

[manualman]

ya...i think mines green, darn. I was hoping that I could get mine higher! Thanks for the info

How would you know if your T-bird is green or blue?? I just got my T-bird last week and now running at 850Mhz (1.85V)

uhh... look at it??



seriously, take it off the board (remove it carefully children, and make sure you take heatsink off first..hmmm)

and look at it! if you have problems still, call your eye-doctor.

I got an t bird 900, green, anyway i got it just over 1100 with a gorb filed down on an abit kt7

 

[manualman]

i would like to know your settings and what cooling you are running, and what ram please...it would be helpful...im addicted to overclocking!!!!!

My Alpha got me way more overclocking speed than the Gorb. Thus I believe the Alpha is vastly superior. I'm talking an extra 100mhz over what the Gorb gave me.
