It's alive! 3.0C brought back from dud-dom with phase change.

Well I bought a 3.0C SL6WK 30 cap a while back and was only able to get it to 235FSB on water. Got my Mach 1 in today and grabbed the two closest computer parts. A p4p800 and my discarded 3.0C. I was able to hit 4.0ghz like it was made for that speed. I mainly just wanted to check and see if I could keep the condensation out. Finding out I could push that chip to 4gig was a nice suprise. I wonder if I could break it in a little at that speed and then slap it on my WC system and get a few more + past 235. Anyway I can't wait to slap my 3.0E that will do 3.85 stable on WC. I just have to figure out how I'm going to set it up I wish I could run the unit beside my comp.

makes me think something else maybe was holding the chip back? like the diff motherboard might have allowed it to be pushed further

 

[Myhre]

couldn't have been, I tested it on that exact motherboard once before and I was only able to get it to 230 on air.

is your windows loadinng at 230 or is your system stable at 230

With my old 3.0C SL6WK I was able to oc it to 235 on my p4c800-e dlx at 1.55vcore on water cooling. It was completely stable.

I then threw it in a p4p800 and was only able to oc it to 230 at 1.55vcore on air. It was completely stable.

Right now I have a 3.0E running at 250 1.5vcore watercooled on my p4c800-e dlx. It is completely stable

I then put the 3.0C SL6WK back into the p4p800 and was able to oc it to 265 at 1.65vcore on phase change cooling. It was completely stable.

I havn't tried phase change on the 3.0E or on the p4c800-e dlx board yet.
