Im very glad to say that my heat problem has gone. After many dollars, drilling and the odd OMG i've finally finished my case.
Temps before the case mods were.
idle : 50 2.0 @ 2.4 1.525V abit th711
load : 65 - 70*.
* 70 never was reached but 65 came so quickly that 70 would have easily be reached.
After Case Mod.
idle : 39c ( 2.0 @ 2.4 1.525 V)
load: 47c
idle : 41c ( 2.0 @ 2.66 1.525V)
load : 47c
I installed 3 x 12cm Sunon fans ( 2 fans sucking, 1 fan blowing). 1 Volcano 7+ and Arctic silver 3.
This is my question:
Without the Vmod what could my cpu be overclocked? What is the best known config in bios to maybe get 2.8?
I would like to safely overclock my PC but 2.6 is pretty quick. Im thinkin if i would need to overclock my PC more it would be when Doom3 came comes out.
I noticed that a FSB between 130 and 133 has no difference in the cpu speed, but 133 wouldn't boot back into windows but 130 did.
Do i need more voltage when i go to 133? i don't want my cpu to die thats why i would like for now to overclock it and make sure it still works 8 months down the track.
