had it less than 4 :P

booted into widows @ 3.6 YAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYA
now im gonna run prime for a little while just to see mbm5 wont work right for me just beeps ALOT so if someone knows a better prog than this or 1 that will do as good would be greatly appreciated

[(v)estra]

dang not stable at 1.675v dont know how high to push the voltage and dont know my temps :(

[(v)estra]

3.5 seems to be the max for now b/c i dont know my temps can someone post another prog that gives temps

[(v)estra]

ok restart the computer went strait into cmos the temp was dropping 1*C every 10 secs and i clocked myself going into cmos 20 secs it was at 46*C so i bumped it up a bit its currently at 295fsb 1.65v starting prime for gonna run it for 2 hrs see u then

[(v)estra]

HEY I GOT MY 4TH STAR!!! :P

[(v)estra]

was not stable @ 295fsb @ 1.65 v and i dont know what temps im running at so i dont wanna over clock it more 292 rock solid for almost 2 hrs of prime gonna let it run some more

if anyone can get me a link to another temp monitor it would be greatly appreciated

Maybe try MBM5 you should be able to get it here (http://mbm.livewiredev.com/)

Peace,

mbm5 wont work right reads cpu temp as 150*C and i know thats not right

[(v)estra]

do abit ic7-gs show temps wrong in bios b/c according to mbm5 my cpu temp is 34*C full load but when i go into cmos it shows 40*C idle...

Try speedfan? http://www.almico.com/speedfan.php

I'm trying to work my way out to get mine stable at 292 fsb :)

Be careful. you're pushing boarderline vcore for any type cooling. I personally wouldn't go above 1.625v max on air. At 1.7 you risk SNDS regardless of your cooling method.

52*C prime 95 for 12 hrs not too hot i was told to keep it under 50*C so im close ima try and drop the voltage down and run some more prime

[(v)estra]

38*C idle 52*C load full load prime 95 stable for 6hrs at 3.6 what do u think tone it down? or is this ok?speed fan shows my voltage @ 1.65 so a little higher than u suggested u think i should be ok?

[Grandpa Dan]

If you can lower it(vcore) and stay stable then by all means do. Are you using a divider with the ram? Is it passing memtest86 clean? If you're not passing memtest there is no reason to run prime yet.

Here is a link to aida32, it will tell you everything about your sys. http://www.aida32.hu/aida32.php

thx alot for the link yes im using a 3/2 divider i have not had a chance to tweak it yet hehe gonna start that now i will bb in a bit to post

[(v)estra]

290fsb testing 5/4 divider running mem test 232 fsb (ram rated at this) if i pass this then ima run prime v-core @ 1.65

[Grandpa Dan]

You said you ran prime at that voltage and passed. Try lowering it one setting in your bios. Some will say 1.65v is fine. I say not on air, Why take unnecessary risks?

[(v)estra]

right now im testing the memory if it passes that and passes prime 95 ima lower it again but speed fan is reading 1.62v so i think im ok

[(v)estra]

how long should i run memtest? been running it for an hr im at 1k cycles and no errors... keep running or is this good? should i start prime 95 now?
