As many of you know I like to OC my computers.
My home computer is by far the biggest OC of all of them. But my production has been jumping because of heat problems from my computers at the office (CPU)
So today I tried something. If my rate does not drop tonight, I will consider it successful
You all might remember the thread created by Sean.
Well Not I did not go for as big of an OC as what they were.
I had a Celeron4 2GHz @ 2.76GHz with the memory running @ the 3:4 ratio with the respective timings at 2.5-3-3-7. It's average cEMs/sec were about 276000 +/-
Well I lowered the OC on the beast down to a respectable 2.4GHz and brought the voltage back down to stock levels.
This time however I increased the memory timings to 2-2-2-6 still running @ 3:4. My cEMs/sec on that machine went from that 276000 upto 325620 and still rising (after 3 blocks).
That is a difference of 49620 cEMs being produced. Or in simpler terms, basically the same output of a Celeron 600MHz.
I did the same thing with another computer, a 1.6GHz P4 Willamette (The 256k cache version). But alas, the memory will only run 2-2-2-6 upto 124FSB @ 3:4 ratio.
So I seen a drop of 12000 cEMs/sec on that machine (the equivelent of a AMD K6-2 450MHz). But the plus side is that the CPU is running sooo much cooler.
I have not memtested the the memory yet to check for stability because I had to watch the entire office by myself :|. But in the mean time I will be seeing a slight increase in speed which hopefully will not fluctuate any more.
For my home computer I plan on dropping the FSB down to say... 156 and running it in Turbo mode with 2-2-2-5 timings if possible. I wanna see how that effects the home computer.
I'll keep you all posted.
