Current Rig:
478 2.8E\Zalman CNPS9500
Abit IC7-MAX3
4x512 Corsair XMS Pro PC-4000
I'm trying to get to 4GHz, but I don't think it will happen with my current CPU. I'm guessing its an early Prescott because I got it when it they were first released.
With my current setup i'm limited with my memory, which doesn't doing a stinking mhz above 212 without erroring out test #7 in Memtest. With a divider though I can reach 3.6GHz on stock 1.38v, 3.8GHz at 1.52v stable. 3.9+ is a no-go at all. Will POST at 3.9, no POST at 4.0
I was thinking of getting a 3.4 SL7E6 on eBay (can't find it anywhere else, not 100 posts yet ) and seeing how far I can push that. At one point I was considering a EE chip, then I quickly decided against that when I saw their going price. Ouch.
So I just thought i'd like some input\comments on how to get to 4GHz. I am working with Corsair right now on getting PC4000 ram that actually does 250MHz FSB.
