View Full Version : burn baby burn!!!
How much higher you think my voltage can go within reasons for a load temp?
Currently using 2.2a, asus p4t-e, alpha 8942 w/hla panaflo (of course as3).
My voltage is currently at 1.6, how much higher you think i can go? I'm attempting for 133 fsb on air, you think i can do it? When i was at 1.5v, load was at 42, now at 1.6 i'm at 44, so i'm assuming if i goto 1.75v, i'll be at about 47. You think 1.75 will be enough for the 133fsb. I wanna burn this baby in to get some speed already.
It's hard enough to hit 133 with both the 2.0 & 2.2 no matter what your vcore will be.
Also your temps will go much higher since you are raising fsb & vcore at the same time.
My opinion is that you can go up to 120-125 fsb...except if you are extremely lucky.

Every cpu is different. See how little volts it needs to run stable. If its not stable add volts. There is no advantage whatsoever to over-volting when you dont need to.:(
when i try raising the fsb up to 133, my computer doesn't even do anything when i try to turn on, no post, no nothing, i just see the fans spin and that's it, also the hard drives seem to turn on, but blank screen, nothing.

your problem is that 2.2a.... it's multilpier is extrememly high and your trying to get a 133fsb right off that bat! Only try that with low multiplier chips like the 1.6 or 1.8 (or the 2.26B;)) try and up the fsb by little increments of five at first.. and then when you approach the 120ish fsb then increase by a rate of 1... when your system becomes unstable pump in more voltage... i will tell you this however.. Batboy (he has a 2.0a i know it's not your chip but it also has a very high multiplier) had to pump in 2.1 volts to his chip (HIGHLY NOT RECCOMENDED!!!) just to hit 133fsb.. and his chip had a lower multiplier than yours!!! i doubt your lucky and got a good chip that will overclock well (Since there are very very very little 2.2's that will do that).. on average you do not want to supply more than 1.85 volts (in bios) to your chip! otherwise in a couple of weeks it'll burn out!!! (whcih batboy did mention, and so he returned his chip to the normal overclock he had at 1.8volts... the only thing he got out of it was that he could run his ram at 4x (Abith Th7II with RDRAM)) hope that helps
