its no good! can you move around your bios? thats the best place to overclock!

Cheers for the reply, It was for a friend who wouldn't know his way around the bios too well. Found AIbooster which seemed to do the trick. I hear ntune does the same thing though but its working now.

im having trouble oc'in my e6600 in an asus p5b deluxe in the bios it says 9 multiplier and 266 fsb but in cpu-z and other tools it says its 6X266 at 1.2 V which is 1.6ghz, its annoying me, any ideas?

Disable c1e in the bios and turn off EIST (Enhansed Intel Speedstep Technology) by turning your power options in control panel to always on. Wrecked my head 2 until i read up on it. As it is, when you run orthos speedstep ups the multi to 9x. Its Intels way of conserving power when you dont need it.

super, that worked and i can start o'c'in what do you think of this and am i doin anything wrong?



its a wrong volt, the voltage is 1.475

PogMoThoin

Don't heed the voltages given by software in windows. Cpu-z is buggy & shows the wrong voltages over 1.4V. They'll prob fix it in a later updated version. Read your voltages from the bios.

What week conroe have you? I'm stable @ 360fsb at the same voltage (1.47V), newer week conroes are supposed to need less voltage. :eek:

Whats your temps like?



Its time to update your sig now m8

Psycopat

where might i find a temp monitoring program such as yours? also a stress testing program for dual core?

EDIT whats the highest volt i should use, i wanna push this bad boy its pc6400 ram too

arctic cooling freezer pro 7 hsf

That smart guardian comes with my mobo. The other is core temp. here: http://www.thecoolest.zerobrains.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=137

Dual prime: http://sp2004.fre3.com/beta/beta2.htm

I woulddn't go over 1.55V if i were you. Check out this thread for voltages: http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/showthread.php?t=106321&highlight=official+conroe+overclocking

Get to 360fsb & we'll compare 1m pi times

Put your ram on a divider, just to take it out of the equasion. Fails mean more volts when ya know its not your ram holding you back.

Be careful of temps.

this failed after 10 seconds

Something's wrong then so. What mobo again (been postin so much its hard to remember who gettin what)?

There are a few threads on xs forums that give guides to oc'in with various boards. They go thru bios settings & tell you what you should do for best clocks. There are also threads for fixes.

ok lowered the ratio to 1:1 and it seems stable at 2.9 for 40 mins at least i leave it all night, temps seem to be maxing at 61 degrees, what is the norm? nice but im sure theres more in her screenie

PogMoThoin

What vcore? Your temps seem high. I can run on stock voltage @ 320fsb.

1.525 i havent tried lower as of yet

PogMoThoin

Edited above post while you were typing.
Disable hyperpath, put voltages back at stock & try again. There shouldn't be any need for that much voltage. I'm stable a@360 with loads less volts.

upped fsb to 340 and 1.5 vcore seemed slightly unstable, lowered fsb to 330 (3ghz) and it seems to be maxing at 60 degrees under full load, ill lower to 4.75 and leave overnight

PogMoThoin

Read all the guides i posted above before ya go any further. Your chip appears to need a lot of voltage.

silly me i meant 1.47 i dunno what i was at an hour running dual core prime at 230 X 9 at 1.47 max temp i saw was 59 so it doesnt seem too bad ill up it to 235 and leave over night. how long is nescesary to show stability on dual core?

I'm sure ya mean 330 & 335 in above post. 8-12hrs of orthos is stable. I've got fails after 6 hrs before & had to up voltage & start again. Your temps will rise when ya leave it for a few hrs. Mine hits 68' on max load (i dunno what temp prog to believe as my cooler is barely warm at 68', i should be burnin my fingers) & i've seen peeps higher on xs. Some were hittin 75' & still stable.

Psycopat

wow i was tired gettin numbers mixed up and stuff im busy this weekend but sunday evenin ill try again, i guesse ill have to settle for 3GHZ atm

Psycopat

there are the commands which appear to be hindering my oc im now 8 hours dual core prime stable at 3.2 ghz im pumping 1.5 volts through it, only so i know voltage isnt my problem, ill probly get it lower, my temps seem good though, after 8 hours load the highest temp i got was 65 C, ya gotta love the arctic cooling freezer pro 7

Psycopat

H0ly crap this chip is fast :eek: an hour stable at 3.4 dunno if i wanna put more volts through it though it is startin to touch 69 C on 1.53 volts
