ok, besides AT Forums, i also visit Adrian's Rojak Pot Forum, a malaysian hardware site famous for its BIOS optimization guides. then, there was this guy who claimed he got a nearly impossible overclock imo. tell me whether you believe it or not. i'll quote him:



at least you can enable the "use 150Mb ram" option...
ahh well 2 weeks time ill have a AXP3200 1Gb pc3200 nforce 2 and some other killer gear...

and

ohhh ill be ocing alright. im getting a SLK-900 and a 80mm 45cfm fan.
ive already built a mate the same spec PC as mine and i got his upto 3.08 (14x220) absolute monster

and

thanks PY, i just need my new rig now.
goldfries.
yea it is, i reckon i could get mine even higher, requirement are a massive copper heatsink (slk-900) artic silver 3 (amazing stuff) and a big case with good airflow, (2xintake + 2xexhaust minimum) Vcore was defaullt although i might need to go up .05v much past that freq.
If you think about it the 3200+ is a 2.2Ghz cpu so 3.08 isnt that much of a oc, even for air...

and

once i get my rig up and running ill repeat the oc and show you the wcpuid. as for the voltage, which volts is it exactly you want to know? it was running at 14x220 with corsair pc3500. 3200+cpu, 430w antec truepower psu. abit NF7-S 2.0 mobo and a 9800 pro for good measure.

and

why have i spent the last few days defending the fact that a 3200+ can get over 3Ghz? just becauseyou guys cant do it dont mean noone else cant...

BS!

I like this line:

WTF?! Sounds to me this guys is talking out his ass. A ~900MHz overclock isn't much on a Athlon? This guys is full of crap!

Sounds like a crockful of sh1t to me. I would buy some if he goes for like 2.2v Vcore. But at default??

I'd buy it if it were one of those liquid nitrogen bath job's... but +3GHz on air @ default is a bit optimistic.

heh yeah sounds like a right idiot, as for those wcpuid images.... well i would like to see those, or at least the fake ones he makes when he realises he cant get past 2.4ghz

you'd make up something too, to try justifying getting raped on what you paid for the 3200+ just to discover later that it's max potential doesn't exceed a 44$ 1700+ ;)

I think it's a load of crap...SLK-900 has it's own limits and I think that at 3.08GHz on default vcore, the SLK-900 would melt or the CPU itself would become so unstable that it would melt....

Just my 2 cents

I met fools like him before (In US unfortunately),
What prevents him from being a real man:
1) small ding-a-ling
2) ugly mug
3) no friends
4) no women

See, people like him are of a "bad-nerd" type (as opposed to "cool" nerd, or a person, whose nerdness is tolerable and doesnt corrupt his personality).
Each of us seeks acceptance. some do it by being cool people in REAL life. He cant. THe only place where hes a "Super man" is: internet. People like him are many. "I got a low score - 22000 3d marks" - are just like him. Cant get laid? Well, tell people what 3d mark score u got - and everyone will envy (or most unsecure persons would) you. How f**** pathetic! I've encountered an even more laughble situation, happened while i was in the US:
Dude: "How many girls u f***?
Me: Why does it matter to u?
Dude: "Curious. I thought u Russians got ugly women and u hump them a lot with yo small penises"
Me (shocked, cuz i dont even know the F**): wtf? U wanna see *about to reach down my pants"
Dude: naw, u are a f****ot
Me: Lets go outside (here its a GREAT insult to call someone a f*g)
Him: no, no im joking!
Me: watch yo tongue
Him: Whatever! I got more money than u" an he deaprts.
I was shocked: if America got idiots like this, where the hell did they come from? Little ugly ass prick!

So i wouldnt blame this guy either. God has punished him enough already. He has no girls - i got em. He got no friends - i do. So who the f cares if he got better PC, or more money than I? Pathetic $#!+ prolly whacks off in front of his UBER PC.

We are currently running 3400+ Barton processors at 3.25GHz on air using Epox's nForce2 400 Ultra board...













...and then I woke up :p
