100FSB P3 1100 overclocking

[deez]

I think I would like to get this chip. I was considering a celeron 900 but I want something a bit faster than my current setup and . Is anybody currently running this chip?

Its going to be about a week and half before I can buy but its the same price as the 1000E and everybody seems to love that chip

Hi deez,
For sure a P/// is more stronger, but more expensive, personally I'm very satisfied of my Cellie 900@1123Mhz (Fsb@124) even if I've settings probs with the Mobo, so I cannot still to go @1.20Ghz, easy way to go with this chip.

Best option is the celeron 800 cD0 chip, that has a decent shot at running 133mhz bus and higher (seen them go 1.15+ghz with stock cooling).

[funnyperson1]

thats a good chiup should be ables to hit at least 1200 with it, a radadman (ithink?) has his 1.1ghz PIII up to 1460 with aircooling, so if you get this chip with an SK6 or better hs/fan you can get very high clock speeds...

[deez]

The Doors....I'm also very happy with my cele 566@850 but I'm looking for the best upgrade performance wise for my current system. Even though its close to $100 more it would be sweet to run that 1100 at 133 or even 124 FSB. (1463 or 1364 speaking in Mhz)

i just got a globalwin cak38 and it doesn't even get warm on the 566.

The PIII with 100FSB is great for OCing.
But don't go wiht the sk6 get the MCX370with a Delta or a Ystech, much better. I got my dual 1Ghz running but they are 133FSB so I can only get up to 1.17 Ghz right now, with my current ram and stock cooling. I have the MCX370 on one chip and stock on the other and the MCX keeps it really cool.
definitly go with a 100FSB chip so that your PCI or Ram doesn't become a issue.

I'm running it with not much success (see sig). As funnyperson1 said, radadman has his pretty high. Do a search on that nick to see how he did it. It has some potential, but I'm just screwing up. :)

[deez]

1200-1400 range sounds like it has good potential for me to give it a try. And at the worst I'll still have an 1100 I guess.

I cant go with 133FSB chips if I want to overclock. My board has no settings above 133. Board is Abit BP6 and settings are 104,106,108,110 (1/3) and 124, 133 (1/4)

never took FSB above 110 though as I've been running celerons for a while...testing tonight with a 133FSB chip I borrowed from somebody just to make sure board works

Any more man if you hadn't noticed is that copper coolers are the way to go. The SK6 is a very good cooler. If you want to start playin up around 1300MHz with this chip best get a real good copper cooler. All the latest cooler roundups(no matter who) put the copper coolers way up front. Aluminum coolers don't cut it with the Athy's anymore and there is a reason. It is because they can not cool as good as a copper cooler. From now on you are wasting your money if you get a aluminum cooler cause in the next half a year all the chips will require a good copper cooler for high clock speeds and if you really want to get into the physics of it I will show ya. I really don't want to cause the subject has been beaten to death.

My chip should arrive tomorrow 1100E

I think I will try the burn-in method recently mentioned here in the forums: From what I remember its lower the FSB and up the voltage and burn in for a few days under max load

Is this correct???????

I'm also applying active cooling to the BX chipset

[radadman]

1100e rules! Mine did 1441MHz @1.95v right out of the box with a cu gladiator w/delta fan. Sandra scores are right there with a PIV @1.8GHz. Althought extensive burn-ins for over 6 weeks now have not produced any more overclocking ability, I can now run with as little as 1.35v.

these are my two sweet spots for overclocking both 100% stable:
fsb 112 x11=1.23GHz@1.55v, dram@149MHz, max temp 32C, pci@37.3
fsb 126 x11=1.39GHz@1.85v, dram@126MHz, max temp
41C, pci@31.5

Also:
fsb 100x11=1100@1.35v, dram@133MHz, max temp 30C, pci@33.3

Thats some intense overclocking for that chip than raddaman good job..

Definitely the P3 is much more powerful than the Celeron although the price of it is kind of matching the XP 1600+ so .. :/

Although if you can get to 133fsb's or around there then it would match up against other chips very well, although this would require some serious cooling.

Hey, I'm at the same with mine, only slightly lower voltage (1.85), although this is probablly because my motherboard adds .03 to VCore voltage, so it's actually about the same (1.88).

Strange thing is, the chip went to 1.3 GHz completely stable without touching the voltage... it's almost as if the chips are underclocked, but once it gets to the 'normal' speed, it hits a brick wall.

[deez]

radadman....I hope I get the same results...what kind of PSU are you using?

Xaeryan...its probably your PSU not your mobo thats adding .03...mine was doing about the same until I got a new PSU and now its right on the money

and something got screwed up with my order and apparently it hasn't shipped yet...so now I probably have to wait a few more days....blah

No, actually in my case, it's a documented feature of the motherboard I use - the ASUS CUSL2. The board supplies .03 Volts more than the processor requests as a stability / safety feature. Some other ASUS boards do the same, like the TUSL2.

[deez]

I have heard that about that board

I think olman had a thread about that in the past few days

[radadman]

radadman....I hope I get the same results...what kind of PSU are you using?


I have a abit vp6 mobo, which had all kind of problems until I got an enermax psu 300w

[deez]

radadman...well I have the BP6...the VP6's older brother...and sometimes I swear that board has a mind of its own

But I recently got a sweet Antec case with 300W PSU so that should be fine....the mobo is my only concern

[Xaeryan]

deez: the Antec SX1030 I presume? If so, how do you like it? I plan on getting one very soon.

why is the physics saying that copper is not any better than ally for cooling?though it seems obvious its a fact that ppl prefer copper but apparently there really is 'no' real physical explanation like the molecule structure is better suited or nothing?

[deez]

Xaeryan...actually its the SX830 got for $100.00 at comp usa. Its a sweet case.

comes with 2 built in case fans mounted in rear and 3 extra slots for 80mm fans in the front. Drive rails for removable IDE drives. Quick swappable HD bay. and a 300W Antec PSU

the PSU by itself would be $60-70
