More P4 Overclocking Voltage Data

[Toast]

Greetings,

The following graph was prepared from information posted in our database and the VR-Zone overclocking database.

interesting... 1.6 oc's better then 2.2, mab its just cause not so many 2.2's have been oced n ppl havent gotten uber chips

Thanks for the data.

It would be nice see separate graphs for each cpu. I think it would be a bit easier to read.

I'll separate the data into multiple graphs.
Thanks for the suggestion.

what would you estimate the core voltage be to get a 2.a to 3000-3100?

Well, with a Vapochill, you could probably run up to 1.85v and not be worried about heat issue, and it should get you somewhere around 2800 and the rest should be luck. The 2.0a I find aren't the best overclockers out of them.

Based on the data, anything beyond 2.8GHz will take some serious effort. Also, it appears that the 2.2A's have the greatest potential for the extreme frequencies given that they tend to need less voltage as frequency increases. A clear conclusion I made viewing these graphs, is the amazing value of the 1.6A's.

If you really want the upper end frequencies, target the 2.2V vCore range with some impressive cooling capacity.
