yes, ANOTHER barton 2500 temps question


as you can see in my sig, i've got a Barton 2500+ running at 2.4ghz. it's only running 40c idle, and 47c load. from what i've read, these are very acceptable temps especially for such an overclocked barton non-mobile. i've got an awesome heatsink/fan sitting on my northbridge and a nice passive one sitting on the southbridge. i guess my question is this:
given the temps i am showing now, do you think i can/should go any higher? i just want to get a solid 'yes' before possibly dissapointing myself. so if anyone thinks i should try to push this chip harder, say so and i'll give it a go.

forgot to mention, my voltage is only at 1.75v. that'll probably make a big difference in answers. maybe not though ...

I have mine running at 11x214 at 1.8v. Temps at 42c idle and 52c load (prime). Most people say don't go over 60c.

So to answer your question. Push that bad boy!

I say it depends on how much guts you have, I'm at 240 x 10 but it's not 100% stable at even 1.8V (fails prime in a few hours ), and tops out at about 48 degrees, and goes over 50 if my room gets hot. I'm too much of a wuss to go any higher because my stupid processor needs so much friggen voltage and I don't wanna risk frying it.

But if you want to go for it and have real high temps, sure, go for it.

Yeah I would say nay but Im a little precautious I was tryin to get mine to boot past the 11x multiplier with no avail but your temps look good infact they are comparable to mine sittin on 3200+ speeds 39c idle/42C load

Im not a big fan of pushing the FSB to much when my NF7-S died on me for no apparent reason
