My IC7 + 2.6C overclocking experience

[joeryu]

just got my 2.6c in today from googlegear, and i just installed it. i went straight to 250 FSB at default voltage and its running 2 instances of prime95 so far so good. here is my setup:

Abit IC7 w/1.3 Bios
P4 2.6C w/Swiftech MCX-4000 w/Panaflo H1A
2x512mb Corsair XMS 3000c2 @2.7v

Currently Testing:

250 FSB @ default voltage, 3.25 GHz
Ram at 5:4, DDR400 @ 2.5, 3, 3, 7. (want to push CPU first)


ill update you guys as i go along, so far so good =). my goal is 3.5 ghz...hopefully that will be possible~

 

[stardust]

probably will, u should get faster memory tho if u want higher speeds or set the ratio even lower heh
neways yah, do post more on ur results, and mebe sum benchmarks?

250 right off the bat...uh, I think 3.5 is doable! Awesome!

What is the packdate of the processor? Was it retail or OEM?

TIA

 

[joeryu]

cpu was retail, pack date 5/09/2003
FPO/BATCH #: L310B590

right now im testing at 263 fsb @ 3.419 GHz @ 1.575 and its running prime95 so far so good, load temp doesnt go above 60c.

Sweet OC!

It sure gives me hope that my 2.4C + IC7 will do good =) Im hoping for ~265-270FSB. I think for once Abit will give some decent support for this board, as a large number of enthusiasts have chosen it for their platform.

I've got a 2.4C at 266fsb so far with my P4P800. Will have a 2.6C to test out as well. Check out for more info over at http://www.bleedinedge.com's forums.
