Highest 1.1 Gig Overclock?

[Colin]

Pardon my ignorance but I have got a real wild hair here. After over a year dinking with AMD CPUs I have a pair of 1.1 Gig 100 MHz FSB PIIIs. I am curious as to what the highest stable overclock with one of these CPUs is, pelted watercooled systems included?

On a side note regarding my turn to the "dark side", I have noticed that Intel CPUs seem to work better in daily use. Not trying to start a debate here as this seems to be an obtuse thought these days. None the less, it's worth saying...

I can't speak pelted/h2o users but my air cooled 1100e has been to 133FSB with the wire trick using 2.05V not stable though. 100% stable at 128FSB@1.85v, thats just over 1.4GHz. sandra scores are impressive almost equal to a stock xp1600.

Thanks radadman. Pretty impressive overclock you've got there!

there are several of us running 1100E's and most are in the 1300's on air with copper colers. Mine is still at default voltage @1309

have not wired this one yet though

1.1EB won't be able to go that high since their FSB starts at 133 and to get to 150 will give you near 1200 but its EB and 150fsb is amazing and it'll compare to lots.

The 1.1E will hit 1.3 definitely.

It'll probably hit 1.4 with extensive cooling like a water setup.

Uh, Yodums,

According to the Intel S-spec sheet, there is no 1.1EB P3 Cumine proc. There is a 1.1E Cumine and the 1.13/133 proc is a Tualatin(tA1). I think the only way you could get the P3 1.13 proc to work on a non-tualatin board would be to use 1 of the powerleap adapters.

I have both of these cpu's. And all are running in vp6 mobo's. The eb's can clock to 156FSB no problem, the memory bandwidth is awesome. The 1100e is a beast to run at 133FSB, but the higher clock does make up some ground, still the eb @1170Mhz156fsb beat up the 1100e@1408MHz128fsb badly. I got to get a pair of the 1000e's has I think there are the best compromise between clock speed & FSB.

radadman is exactly right. My 1.1E went to 1320 stable on air cooling (120 FSB - 1.85 VCore). My 1.0EB goes to 1162 stable (155 FSB - 1.90 VCore). The 1.0EB overclocked spanks the 1.1E overclocked, simply because the higher FSB takes precedence to higher clock speeds in most games and applications. The RAM bandwidth is pretty awesome with good RAM @ CAS 2-2-2 155 FSB. And as radadman states, the 1.0E is probably the best compromise between the two, because it allows fairly high FSB speeds and fairly high clock speeds.

how high we talkin here with the 1000E? 1400 ish?

i hope so!

[Yodums]

My bad..

As for the P3 1Gig E those chips will hit 1300+ with good components of course.
