Hi gents, wanting some opinions from fellow forum members on my current setup and on stability/temps/voltage concerns:
AthlonXP 2700+ @ 2335 (187x12.5) @ 1.800v/1.840v because of BIOS
Asus A7N8X Deluxe 2.0.1005
Thermaltake Silent Boost w/ AS5
1GB (2x512) Corsair PC2700LL (11-3-2-2) @ 2.8v
GeForce4 Ti4600 @ Stock
Enermax EG365P-VE(FC) 350W
Idle/Load: 44/54 28/32
[74GB Raptor] [2x80GB WDC] [NEC ND-3520A] [Lite-On XJ-HD166S] [Audigy1 Platinum]
[3DM2001: 12200] [3DM2003: 1935]
[Load voltages from 188 Prime run]
Temperature: Sensor 1 (Proc): 53.00
Temperature: Sensor 2 (MB): 29.00
Voltage: Core 0: 1.82
Voltage: Core 1: 1.82
Voltage: +3.3: 3.42
Voltage: +5.00: 4.73
Voltage: +12.00: 11.79
Voltage: -12.00: -12.32
Voltage: -5.00: -5.17
This above setup is 10HR prime blend stable and MemTest stable. I tried to push 188mhz FSB and passed 7HR MemTest stability, but error in prime blend at appx 4hr10min. Would this isolate the instability to lack of vcore? Such errors have been fixed before by more vcore and my vdimm is maxed at 2.8v
This raises another question. Could I safely go with a higher vcore than 1.800V? CPU-Z reports 1.840V vcore which I've heard is a problem with this Asus bios but what should I consider my upper vcore limit for the AthlonXP 2700+? Could I possibly go with a lower multiplier and higher FSB with the same voltages?
Thanks guys!
