My M 2500+ came today!!

Try 200x11. I've seen ppl have problems with 10.5 on NF7 mobos.

 

[G-Diffuser]

I got her at 166x14 running 3dmark01.

I want that FSB though! bahh

I'll try 200x11 when 3dmarks done, hope it helps.

You're my hero...200x11 works and I'm just rebooting w/ 205x11

I hope she keeps going!

 

[spazzmattah]

Great! I'm happy for ya. Now with that kickass RAM and mobo, I'm thinking you can hit 220-225 FSB. Good luck.

10 and 10.5 multis don't work so well with most nforce boards (with few exceptions). My mobile (same stepping as yours) will do 2505MHz (11x227) on only 1.7v though.

I got her at 215x11.5 1.8v...I'm not sure how high it should be at this point...maybe it's too high? I'm idoling at 28c according to EXOS system and 38c according to bios and hardware monitor.

I couldnt get it to 220x11 though.

Running 3dmark atm at 215x11.5 then I'm off to the bios again

 

[bigbadhenchman]

try it at 200x12.5 1.8v

 

[MrZ]

mine is in a mail.... hopefully I won't have any problems

 

[G-Diffuser]

Okay, I can get it to 200x13.5=2.7ghz but I can also get it to like 2.6ghz at 210x12.5... so which is better? My vcore is 1.9v at 200x13.5.

I can do 210x12.5 at 1.8v

So what should I keep it at?

Btw still havent seen if it will run 3dmark at 2.7ghz yet

 

[MrZ]

good job... 2.7ghz is awesome,

I'll be happy with anything over 2.5ghz ... (since I ain't got water-coolz, like you)

you'll be troubleshooting me too pretty soon (friday or monday)

 

[spazzmattah]

How about 215x12.5 for 2685? I used to be able to do that at 2.0 volts with load temp of 43C until I screw around with the vcore too high (2.2) and messed up the CPU. I couldn't do 215x12.5 any more without load temp into the 50s.

But you your case, if those are the only choices, I would go with the 2.7 Ghz. I have a feeling you'll be messing around with that rig for a while bit more until you find the sweet spot. Have fun!

 

[EspElement]

g diff... how new is ur cpu? i am hoping to hit 2.5 really with mine... i just ordered a 2400+ m... u got water coolin dont you?... well check out my temps and my volts on mine now... im sure i can run 1.9volts+

 

[G-Diffuser]

woot 216x13

But I have vcore at 2.1v and it wont run 3dmark for more then a minute...Is it safe to up the volts any more?

OH btw hardware monitor and bios says 44c idol and exos says 30c.

 

[EspElement]

2.1v would be a max... thats my max ahah

 

[RedDawg41]

have you thought about running prime95 or Toast, to do the burn-in process for your proc, say 12x100 with 2.2vcore and let the proggys run thoughout the night up to tomorrow. then try testing out you max speed on your m-barton?

 

[G-Diffuser]

Nope, havent, You think 2.8ghz could become stable after burn in?

 

[EspElement]

ive kinda found that burning in doesnt help a tramendous amount.... but who knows... it is worth a shot tho

Under clock it? and run the volt that high!?

 

[EspElement]

yea always underclock it... ti keeps the temps lower

 

[G-Diffuser]

vcore at 2.2v safe for that low underclock? Or even safe in general?
