nice work

DaWiper · 08-19-05, 07:26 PM

That is a very good oc.

Yuriman · 08-19-05, 07:31 PM

I'd like to see some benches on that. Is it stable?

SuperDave1685 · 08-19-05, 07:32 PM

thx guys.... it keeps failing Prime95 for some reason and freezes when the cpu is tasked 100%... but everything else works fine... Word, AIM, Yahoo, Firefox... hmmm maybe to need to throw some more volts at it.... cooling aint a problem... My board makes a hi pitch noise when it runs ths high... maybe a new BIOS? whenever i go over 2.0v, the board just doesn't wanna post.... kinda strange... any suggestions? I've backed it down to 240x11 = 2.65 and everything is good to go.... I guess maybe the southbridge is overheating? I'll try a differnt BIOS...I'll keep ya updated..mighta found this poor little Barton's max...we'll see if I can't bend her to my evil will.... muhahahahaha!!!

The Coolest · 08-19-05, 08:03 PM

Usually its the PSU that makes these high pitched noise.
What brand/model is your PSU, and what is your +12v and +5v rails at when you're under full load by prime95?

SuperDave1685 · 08-19-05, 08:36 PM

I have an Antec Neo Power 480.... hmm I haven't checked the rails... I got it running right now at 243x11... no problems...of course I flased it to a CPC-off BIOS from Merlin....

Eck!!! That reminds me of the symptoms I had with my Athlon XP T-bred 2400+ when at an OC wall.

I can't even get 2430 mhz without Windows locking up when running Prime95.
Even the mouse pointer would freeze when running Prime95.

Thus the processor temperature could be higher than being displayed on the screen by Motherboard Monitor 5, because it also stops updating when that symptom occurs. Thus I was required to scramble to the BIOS setup utility and when I did, at least once, saw the processor temperature at approximately 160 F degrees!!!

(I saw it at 158 F degrees)

When I gotten my Athlon XP T-bred B 2400+ back on August 3, 2004, I wanted to get at least 2.5 ghz if not 2.6 ghz!!! Boy I was disappointed.

Wasn't stable at all at 2.5 ghz, ended up getting a BSOD before the Windows boot process could complete or other crash before the Windows boot process could complete, even with 1.875V!!!

SuperDave1685 · 08-19-05, 09:04 PM

well the temps are ok... a little on the warm side... 46C idle... but thats kinda expected for such a high oc on air.....and windows doesn't BSOD or reboot... just freezes when the CPU is tasked 100%.... hmmm I'm trying a different BIOS now... Trat's d27_619R2_2T...

CanadianTSi · 08-19-05, 10:20 PM

Very nice.

I'm sure my locked 2800+ could do that as it will do 2650 with 1.8 vcore but that is the max my board will give

SuperDave1685 · 08-20-05, 01:37 AM

grrr... ok well she ran for about 5-10 mintues at 245x11 w/ 2.06v (according to the BIOS)... it was running Prime just fine for about 3 mnutes... then boom- random reboot...I tried givin it a little more juice.. 2.1v... random reboots...hmmm.. I dunno.. I flashed it again to a newer Trats BIOS....and its at 243x11 right now with 2.03v... no problems... priming now for over an hour...BF2 and CSS run just fine... no reboots, temps ok.... Arghhh! what do I have to do for that extra 2-3Mhz on my FSB!! ( thats like 20-30 more Mhz from my cpu) Gosh Darnit...soooo close.. . i guess I spoke too soon.... any ideas? I can't seem to find that Merlin D25 BIOS that was suppossed to be the ****... any help? Thanks guys!

lithker · 08-20-05, 01:50 AM

i hope those mosfets are sinked. at 2volts i recommend sinks with active fan they get very hot at that high voltage.

RMT99e · 08-20-05, 01:51 AM

Nice OC. I expect similiar results with my OC's soon to come.

Weltall · 08-20-05, 02:22 AM

Nice Overclock, maybe try some liquid cooling to gain extra stability?

elec999 · 08-20-05, 02:29 AM

Very nice overclock.
Thanks

Vengance_01 · 08-20-05, 04:02 AM

Very Nice O/C, but you are seeing this chip needs more volts, but I don't think you get it stable 24/7 on air at those speeds as it will require an un-godly anmount of voltage

Biggles 266 · 08-20-05, 06:19 AM

Excellent work! Few people get great OCs on desktop Bartons anymore, nice to see someone else with one. Mine isn't as impressive as yours, but I was chuffed with it. I think you just managed to justify water cooling of phase change

Pinmod or bridge mod it to give 1.825 or 1.85 volts.

Go here and click workshops on the left, then go to the interactive pin-mod guide. I've had more success with the wire in socket method than bridge painting.

SuperDave1685 · 08-20-05, 05:10 PM

pooo... looks like it just ain't stable at 2.7... I thought it was.... Guess i posted a bit pre-maturely....it looks like its topping out at 2.68.... thats 243x11 w/ 2.03v... maybe I need to sink the mosfets... I'm just too lazy to take everything apart right now... thats a little over a 21% o/c....any suggestions...? More juice perhaps? Anyone know if there's a hard mod to do to the Bartons to unlock the multi? I seriously doubt it b/c this is a locked chip though... Thanks guys!

The Coolest · 08-20-05, 05:35 PM

That's still a superb OC for a desktop part, not many mobiles can hit that speed. And no, there's no way to unlock this chip, sorry.

SuperDave1685 · 08-22-05, 12:21 AM

Yea.. I didn't think there was, but you never know...
