View Full Version : Recommended settings for OCing a duron?
I have a duron 750 and I'm running it at 850 right now by changing the multiplier only. I tried to change the multiplier to 9 but I got some blue error screen at 900 mhz.....I'm guessing b/c I need to up the voltage? Anyway, I'm running at 31.6 degrees C at idle and 39.5 while running the 3dmark test. What temp can these things handle? Also, there is a setting to change from 100 to 133 for the "cpu clock select" Its defaulted to 100, should I make it 133? Thanks a ton!
What mobo have you got? I have a kt7 and my pc doesn't like me changing the fsb at all. I can get my duron 650 to 950 by changing the multiplier and it runs between 21-38 degrees C. I'm pretty sure they can handle at least 50degrees C, but it might pay to get someone elses oppinion, cause I'm not 100% sure.

i have a7v which has a kt133 chip but i can do 133+ fsb
i m running my duron 750 at 990 7.5*132
at 133+ i cant get into win2k

it all really depends on your setup i've got my duron 900 @105fsb x 10.5 = 1102mhz and my v-core at 1.85v, i would definately bump the v-core up, and your temps are ok

Like the others said, your temps are fine so you can raise the vcore, no problem. As long as you keep below 50C you'll be fine - they can handle 60C 'safely', but I wouldn't be happy running that hot. If you have a mobo based on the KT133a chipset you can run a 133MHz fsb, but if it's a KT133 board you'll be limited to a max of about 110, and you'll have to oc with the multiplier.

Thats good advice. You definatly can continue rasing your voltages until your temperature under load have reached 50 degrees C. In which case you are where you need to stop.
