Cant do anymore than 1500?

[Geobronc]

Hi,

I cant seem to get my 1.33 above 1.50 stable. I have tryed everything except raising the Vcore up. Even then I have had some trouble. See my signature for system setup. I currently run with case side off.

Successes:

10.5 x 143 = 1500 Stable with 1.79vcore, 45c load
11.0 x 136 = 1496 Stable with 1.79vcore, 45c load

Somewhat stable and not stable:

11.0 x 137 = 1510 with 1.79vcore, 45c load, getting occasional error and crashes from Games
11.5 x 133 = 1530 with 1.89vcore, 48c load, loads into windows, crashes in games.
11.5 x 136 = 1565 with 1.89vcore, 48c load, reboots after starting windows.

I have noticed that my 3DMark 2001 scores are not much higher with 1530 vs 1500.

Remember that not ALL systems are created equal and you may have just hit the maximum available from your CPU and components, I would suggest checking the CPU database on the front of the site for more information about what other users are obtaining and how.

also let me tell you this ,3dmark doesnt really measure much more then the video card , let me tell you my experiences , I had a t-bird 900 and my gf2mx , my score was like 2500 , then I went to 1450 and only gained 25pts , the reason for this is that most video cards use there own gpu and not the processor as much ,so dont use 3dmark to bench much more then your card and memory.

I had to go to a vcore of 2.10v before I got stabile at 1552mhz

I have the same problem, i have a 1.33 AHYJA 9 and i can get as high as 1620, but anything over 1500 just isint 100% stable, i think it is just the chip limit.

So did I. Increased my vcore to 2.10v to get 1533 out of my 1.2! (before I killed my m/b)

Have you tried removing everything except vid, and 1 stick of ram? I do that first to be sure that the system will do it, and I'm not being limited by something else.

in that case i think i am very lucky to get a tbird 1ghz to go at 1.55ghz
