Celly 1.2 @ 1.63 - 45 under load

[snow patrol]

Is this ok? I've just put my SK6 on, although I've yet to add an 80mm fan (will do this shortly).

This is at 1.725 volts btw running SETI to get temps.

Also, the code of my chip is:

0136A692-0468

Can someone remind me exactly what that means :D

At that speed, at that temp, under load, that's excellent.

You're prolly looking at dropping the core temp by 6-8 C with the 80 on it.

Good work fella!

[snow patrol]

cheers :)

will installing some case fans be better than just leaving the case open?

[Allan Nielsen]

Yes, case fans can help. Leaving your case open of course helps as well, but it doesn't create the airflow needed. This can only be obtained with fans, fans and more fans! :)

[snow patrol]

fans it is then :)

only prob is, my case is a bit crap and I can only really fit a 60mm exhaust fan at the back, and nothing at the front, but I'll stick a couple of 80mm's at the side and one at the top.

I'm jealous. 1.8V+ and I only post at 1.6ghz... :(

You're really Cool man!!! absolutly an impressive OC :eek:

My opinion is those temps are too high but you may be lucky. I could run anything except prime when my temps were that high. I could sandra burn in, folding at home, cpu burn or anything else except prime. Found out the cause was cause it heats up a certain area in the chip more than the others and when you get up around 45 eg. C I found 50 deg. C for this chip to be the absolute max any temps around this would cause a reboot or hard lock. I suggest you run prime to see for sure you wouldn't want to muck it up. Did you try a good week burnin with the methods we have spoken about here for the last half week or so. If not then you may be wrecking your chip off the bat from getting lower temps the way that ither thread about burning in your said.

Once again after owning two of these .13u chips I found 45 deg. C is too high and even 40 is too high in my opinion. You really want to stay under 40 deg. C. I used to say 45 deg. C but now i say 40 deg. C. Not sure what you can do without taking the IHS off.

Not sure how people could know much about this chip without owning one either. They are a much more delicate creature than the previous cumines. I think these chips are much ore sensitive to temperature flucuation.

One more thing too. If you take the IHS off I would try and have a shim of some sort and when you test the chip after you instal the shim make sure you test it firt at low vcores. I am talking 1.025v and lower hurtz. I bet these cores can't take the heat when the HS is not attached at 1.7+ vcores. They may do the toms hardware brun up.

Good overclocking.. And good temperature.. Your at that line where you can't pass :)

[snow patrol]

hmmn, so ol man, you reckon if I remove the IHS I shouldn't have the voltage above 1.7? I have a copper shim knocking about actually, but I'm wary of taking of the IHS in case I crush the core. I might wait until after I install my case fans and see how the temps are then.

That's if you can get it off. I tried with no success :(

[ol' man]

Most likely your vcore will go down and your top end OC'ability will go up but not without some patience and work. Chances are you shim is too thick. You need a real thin shim. Also the core is not as fragile as you may think. Dude why not just back off your top end MHz and drop the vcore a little? You aren't doing much more at 1650 than you would be doung at 1600 you know except making me and pinky jealous;) Seriosly have you ran prime on your machine yet? I bet it will kick out when you run it. I think you should leave the IHS on for now and simply back of on the hurtz. My opinion though cause most can;t hack getting it off but if they do they have a problem keeping the HS perfect on the core. I have problems keeping the HS on the core cause it is too small but I have to work at it. You got a sweet chip man. I would be content at 1600MHz and drop the vcore and most li8kely temps to around 37 idle 43load. By the way where was your chip made in the phillipines or in malayasia?

All these posts and I've not seen this addressed (maybe I missed it in an earlier one). If the coding is the same as the older chips, then I think it translates as follows.


0136A692

0 is the manufacturing plant code, as in Malaysia or Phillipines, etc (I forget where 0 (zero) is, though).

1 is the year of manufacture, in this case 2001

36 is the week of manufacture within that year.

I don't know what the rest means. HTH.

We were waiting for you ;)
