My 2500+ overclock !! and benchmarks

[Soulkeeper]

I hooked up my water cooling system
here is what I am currently at:

200x12 = 2.4ghz 1.78v

sisoft benchs
mem: 3093/2950
cpu arith: 9010/3646
cpu mult: 12915/14181

i'm gonna try higher fsb speeds but i tryed 2.5ghz and it was too voltage hungry so i settled on 2.4ghz

temps:
cpu: 12c
system: 16c

 

[Soulkeeper]

this is where I am now:

220x11 = 2420mhz 1.825v
sisoft benchs
mem: 3391/3206
cpu arith: 9058/3646
cpu mult: 13026/14330

temps
cpu: 13.5c
system: 17c


gonna try for more fsb/mem speed
i'll keep ya all updated

What are you using to chill the water to 50F or below?

 

[Corporate Thug]

.05V for another 20 mhz? go back to 1.78V

 

[Duvie]

What version of sissoft??? Max 3???

Edit...2.4b@3.24ghz (w/max3)

Mem 3343/3358
CPU 9129/4257
Mult 12857/16402

What does a 2.42ghz Barton see itself as??? 3500+???

craziness

 

[DAPUNISHER]

Post a PCMark compare URL if you get a chance please.

I agree, keep it hovergin around 1.8v

That 20mhz isn't doing sh!t for you.

Your board is probably over volting from 1.75->1.78 correct?

I have a 2500 running 11x200 @ 1.675v... resulting in 2.2 ghz, or xp 3200

Whats the difference in 200 mhz..... why not go with air cooling and save 200 bux??? Just wondering

 

[wicktron]

Cuz he feels like overclocking. Let the man do his thang!

GJ there Soulkeeper. 2.4GHz+ is a great accomplishment.

 

[Evdawg]

naw i mean... water cooling is cool... literally, but was 200 bux for 200 mhz? thats my point.

 

[BaboonGuy]

how loud are radiators? if it its 200 for 200 mhz and serene quietness then i'd say its worth it

 

[Soulkeeper]

ok everyone, I corrupted windows and my cd was too scratched to reinstall so I am stuck on my gf's P2 laptop till I get another cd

But I have made the best of it and built myself a custom plexiglass case
if I can borrow a digital camera from a friend of mine i'll post pics
also i plan to buy a waterblock and a pelt for my northbridge

but yeah later this week I should be back at it
i'll keep you all updated, this is gonna be fun

they are as loud as the fans you put on them (I have 2 120mm fans on mine so it is kinda loud)
and i've spent much more than 200
also I get atleast 400 more mhz with my waterblock/pelts and my overclock isn't as influenced by ambient temps

i'm having fun with it

i am using pelts which make the water temp well above ambient, but cool the cpu to the low temps, so the water is not chilled just cooled with the radiator

yeah i'm using the max3

it would prob be a mad rating like that tho, my nf7-s just reports the true mhz tho
