Nice. I'm gonna play around with mine soon.

I don't generally run all night tests on prime 95 blend like some folks here since this is a gaming rig, but I run OCCT and a few other tests like Memtest. Couple this with some hardcore gaming for hours tends to tell me if it's stable or not.

This is what I have so far. Running at 3.5ghz the last 3 days now.

OOoohhhh! 3.8 GHz @ 1.40 vCore - NICE ...!

Here's the lowly efforts of an semi senile Old Fart !

I can get it into windows at 4+Ghz but it's not stable without more voltage than I'm willing to run(1.58v to 1.6)
and if it ain't stable then what good is it !
The settings I listed are 24/7-365 stable!

 

[QuietIce]

to OCF!

Nice OC! It's easy to tell you're an Old Fart you've got the clock speed cranked up - just like me ...

reserved for Monday or Tuesday. Going to crank my 9800gtx+ as high as I can get stable and do some 3dmark06 suicide runs. XD

Well, I haven't gotten around to 3dmark yet, but here is my max cpu-z (almost) validation.

My 64 bit max (4.1 was in xp 32bit):

HD = Too many
PSU = Corsair TX750
PCI-e = MSI 4830
Cooling = OCZ Vendetta 2 + 3 120mm case fans
Cased system


First time poster, so hello all!
I bought this system with the intention of giving this overclocking thing a try.
I welcome suggestions from all if you see some glaring mistakes or just some tips from users with similar combinations.
If Herr Dolk is reading, excellent guide!

Here are some initial results: 18 hour Prime95 and counting.

You're off to a good start but I bet there's more to go ...

Thanks QuietIce,

I am hoping to settle on a 24/7 clock between 3.6-3.8.
Just tinkering a little and figuring out how all the different settings affect things.

Thank god you are one of those people who actually try things before they come here and ask us EXACTLY what they should do and EXACTLY which numbers to put where. for you.

Thanks Chance,

What fun would it be just copying someone else's OC. Besides, how am I gonna learn what it feels like to fry a processor.

I love my phenom II 940! Top overclock was a 4.1 Ghz on 200x20.5 on 1.44 volts, it crashed while trying to get a screeny of it . It is on stock air cooling and i can game all day at 3.72 Ghz on 1.4 V without a hiccup. 16568 3d mark 06. E 22132 score in Vantage.

hey johnspd,how did you get an engeneering sample? i've always wondered but never found out,sorry if i'm not meant to be quoting btw.

CPU = AM2+ 940 es Phenom II (stepping I have to get soon)
mobo = MSI-K9A2 plat v1
Ram = 2x1gb PC6400 tracers (d9's)
HD = 1x150gb raptor X

These results where both 10 hours prime95 stable
