[566 Celery Overclocker]

I have celery 566 and have acheived 994 easy. When i boot into 1001 I can run most programs but 3DMark jumps me back into my desktop. I have a 32 geforce2 GTS. Temp of cpu is 30 C at idle and does not pass 44C. Should i jump VIO from 3.40 to 3.60to supply the DRAM or lower it. I also find the higher I boot up , the slower the shutdown is! What is up with that!!

Gonna need a bit more info.

First, what do you have the cpu voltage set at?

Second, what mb are you using?

Heatsink/fan?

Depending on what you have the voltage set at, if you are still low enough, you might bump it up to the next setting. You don't mention if your board is a S370 or a slot 1, with the chip mounted in a slocket. The latter usually offers more voltage adjustability (depending on the slocket used).

Its also quite possible that you have hit the max for that particular chip. I have a 600 cC0 that will boot into Windows @ 1008, but locks up almost immediately. It locks after about three hours worth of 990 MHz, but is rock solid at 945. (1008/990 at 2.05 Vcore, 945 at 1.9v)

I'd like a bit more from it, but it just can't cut it. 945 is still one heck of an overclock from a 600. 994 is great for a 566, the majority don't get that high. Congrats, you got a good one.

Post some more specs on your rig and we can help a bit more.

Hey, whats up with that head line??? There are no jerks in this forum! Maybe just a few crazy people, but there are certainly no jerks!

Anyway, I think that 44c is a bit high, what cooling do you have?
