one for the extreme overclocking master

[fresh2k21]

I have some great cooling going on it this system. it only gets up to 22c with a voltage of 1.98 under load. if i go to much higher the overvoltage protection goes off. i just got done with the voltage mod with the variable resister. i can run 1575mhz (150x10.5) 100% stable but 1650 (150x11) will run everything but prime95. what else can I do? Should I do the overvoltage mod as well or will that kill my chip. so far these voltages cant touch my cooling so I would hope I have the potential to go farther. I mean i'm running sooooooooo cold. come on! sock it to me baby.:cool: I can handle it.:D thanks!

what do I gotta do to get a pic up?

[fresh2k21]

my chip came stock with the L1s jumped but I don't know about the L7s. what do they do?

[Sonny]

Convert it into jpeg then attach it. It should work.

[fresh2k21]

do you think that the L7s will help if I have already modded the coltage?

[fresh2k21]

can more than 2.2v hurt my chip or will it just heat it up more? I might have to voltage overprotection mod this board. I cant get it to boot at ~2v. that sux.:rolleyes:

will the kg-7 go higher than 1.85 if the L7 bridges are connected?

nope, it will only go higher when u do a volt mod


also i would like to know what is the jumper config for 1.85v+ on the 8k7a

if it's possible without vmod then i would go get myself one when i have the $$$

Have a chip higher than me, but not for long......the saga contunues.

[fresh2k21]

thanks for puting that up for me.:D it runs great at 1650 but prime 95 that you can almost see in the upper left wont run for more then 5min at this clock(1650 150x11). but if i drop the multiplier to (1575 150x10.5) prime will run fine for houres on end. and it doesn't even make my chip sweat. infact it's so cold im afraid it my catch the flew. ha ha j/k.:D i cant be satisfied until my chip is so far overclocked that it can fight my 172w pelt. there has got to be somthing i can do to push it further. I have never herd of an overclocker lost for words on how to push the envelope just a little more. I have gone this far why not more?

[fresh2k21]

i forgot I had tested the voltmod more and it will let me go about 1.96 - 1.97 but after that it will start acting funny. if i am all up and watching mbm5 voltmeter it wont shut down til about 2. - 2.1v. but between those two it will run but wont restart. that seems kind of wierd. I am curious if that might have somthing to do with the overvolt. if works fine if i lower the voltage back down. ?????what do you think. I would like to hear what our all knowing moderators as well as anyone else who knows what their talking about cuz I am at a loss.:( :D

your chip should be able to handle 2.2v~2.3v anything higher i would consider death very close.....i got my 1ghz AXIA Y 266 >>> 1.4ghz 266 i got to 1466mhz highest i can get stably 1497mhz posted but no load windows 1508 dident even post i believe its my sweet generic 250w PSU holding me back...for 1.5ghz but for heat reasons i am keeping at 1.4ghz to make sure my cpu is under 50c at full load i am gettign 48c with asus and ihave heard it can be 10c off so i am suspecting my cpu is running at 48c good luck with the voltage mod :)

I wouldn't bother risking it for the sake of 5% extra clock speed which would equate to about a 3% performance increase

[fresh2k21]

why? there is my 6 year old word. what is it about going past 2.3v that kills a cpu. heat? or does it cause the chip to implode? I just want to know so I can try to keep it form hapening if thats possible.

[Phil]

with intels using voltages above 2v is very risky, and not for heat issues as you can keep the temp at around the 30's and still kill a chip, with amd I suspect it is heat that does it though.
Also I recomend if you haven't already you get a senfu digital thermometre to measure the core temp, in socket thermisters are rarely accurate and the senfu only costs about $15.

[fresh2k21]

im not to worried about heat. if it's that cold at the board then the chip must be pretty cold as well.:cool:
