Winchester @ 2.7GHZ

[The Green Bean]

Not a bad OC?

Ive kept the vcore at 1.625 in the Bios, but speedfan reports a mean of 1.56v. Load temps hover between 52 and 58 depending on the room temps. It can get damn hot, room tempst at about 100F. And im using an XP90 with Antec silver and a 90mm Ystech fan.


Finally got it to 2.7GHZ 12Hr prime stable with my new RAM....All I have to figure out at what timings will the RAM run at to get it 1:1??

Pics soon

What kind of ICs does your RAM use?

For TCCD, I used this guide.

Although the DFI is supposed to be a better board for running TCCD, I'm sure it's a good place to start. You should probably start at default voltage or default +.1v, because TCCD doesn't like too much voltage (it will produce more errors). Make a bootable Memtest CD to test your settings if your BIOS has all the options. Otherwise you can probably test it using Prime95 Blend or Large FFTs, and you can use A64Tweaker Beta to mess with the settings.
