hows this look

pimptrizkit · Post by **pimptrizkit** » Thu Dec 18, 2003 1:43 am

just bumped the fsb up to 200 haven't tried to go further yet. this is about hour 6 on this cpu.

those are some scores and the current temp

i haven't seen it get hotten the 41c and the fan wasn't at ful throlltle either.

what is it with the thermaltake fan and not being able to hook up a heat sensor and a fan control ? eh i guess it's not needed but would be nice. maybe i just dont know enough...

when you have the sensor and knobe controle hooked up the fan is maxed out for soem reason. eh when i do this my cpu stays about 32c at 2500 haven't tried it at 3200 yet.

oh btw what do you think did i do good?

Pics are not working. Save them as a JPEG file, they load a lot faster then a bmp.

TrevGlas · Post by **TrevGlas** » Thu Dec 18, 2003 3:36 pm

Pics are working for me, but DONT POST BMP files!!! Just save as a 24-bit JPEG... OH Yea extreme already said that :P
GODAMN NOBODY WANTS TO WAIT FOR THESE THINGS TO LOAD... argh annoying.

TrevGlas · Post by **TrevGlas** » Thu Dec 18, 2003 3:37 pm

Pimp I have mine hooked up to a fan controller I can adjust from 500 rpm to 6500 rpm.... also it is EASILY hooked up to a temperature sensor.... just plant the diode underneath the heatsink... but NOT inbetween the CPu/HSF :P Well you can't have two hooked up because it's not gonna read two at once, how is it gonna decide between the two?? One or the other.

All i get is an X.

pimptrizkit · Post by **pimptrizkit** » Thu Dec 18, 2003 3:57 pm

i have my sensor under my cpu on the bottom side. i applied the hsf paste that came with my geil memory it had a copy /silver mivture i will change the pic over. sory about that. but hows it look?

alright saved them as jpeg
sory my computer isn't on over night makes a bit of noise and it's hard to sleep..

TrevGlas · Post by **TrevGlas** » Thu Dec 18, 2003 4:06 pm

Looks great pimp.... I think you might be able to go a BIT higher

Run Prime95 on it... see how the temps hold out.. If it's 100% stable bump the FSB some more :P

TrevGlas · Post by **TrevGlas** » Thu Dec 18, 2003 4:08 pm

I'm gonna try to hit 3ghz with mine in a few days.. running stock right now... gotta wait a few days till my temps stabilize.

pimptrizkit · Post by **pimptrizkit** » Thu Dec 18, 2003 4:50 pm

yea before i start to go massive out of it im gona run alot of burn in stuff and flex the cpu..

the highest i have had it was 2425mhz i think thats a pretty good oc still had my memory settings at cas 2 3-3-6

right now i have it at fsb 211 to achive fsb of 420

pimptrizkit · Post by **pimptrizkit** » Thu Dec 18, 2003 5:07 pm

heres another im gona remopve some of the older ones so they load faster.

TrevGlas · Post by **TrevGlas** » Thu Dec 18, 2003 9:18 pm

Very nice! I beat u on whetstone but you SLAUGHTER my system on drystone :P

pimptrizkit · Post by **pimptrizkit** » Thu Dec 18, 2003 9:40 pm

i actuly have that last one beat. i am running at 440fsb actuly like 221 cuz my mobo seems to be off by 2 oh well. so it's either 440 or 442

i just got it installed into my new case it's a emermax and for awhile my cpu fan didn't go above 3000rpm and my temp was around 33c at 2432mhz freakin crazy

i have my memory at spd but i belive the timmings are
cas 2 4-4 7

i cant belive how much more stable and consitant my fps are after i made the switch. i'll post a link to my 3dmark score.

Cool!

pimptrizkit · Post by **pimptrizkit** » Thu Dec 18, 2003 10:29 pm

i was able to get 444fsb by changine my memory to cas 2.5 3-3-6 but it wasn't stable in windows.
the settings in the last post seem to be the highest i can get wiht out multipler change. unless i play with my memory but im too novice at that unless some one wishes to explain.

TrevGlas · Post by **TrevGlas** » Thu Dec 18, 2003 10:37 pm

Is aquamark free?

TrevGlas · Post by **TrevGlas** » Thu Dec 18, 2003 10:38 pm

Well the only way to OC your memory is raise the FSB some more... you can try lowering your timings, if you get black screen on boot, then raise it up a notch.

pimptrizkit · Post by **pimptrizkit** » Thu Dec 18, 2003 11:31 pm

yes click here to go to down load page.

i dropped my fsb down to like 428 so i can run lower timmings.

the smaller the number better right? so like i have it set up at

cas 2 3-3-6 would

cas 2 2-2-4 be better?

TrevGlas · Post by **TrevGlas** » Thu Dec 18, 2003 11:41 pm

Yes... that would be good.

TrevGlas · Post by **TrevGlas** » Thu Dec 18, 2003 11:42 pm

Pimp did you try lowering your timings atthe higher FSB... geil is very good RAM it might be able to handle it.

pimptrizkit · Post by **pimptrizkit** » Thu Dec 18, 2003 11:48 pm

i have it didn't like it. i have my memory at 2.9v and i in my moniotr it says the memory is getitn 3v's i read on geils site that they test their mempry at 3v's so i figured it was fine.

i tried the agressive timmings cas 2 3-3-6 at 440fsb and it didn't like it it wanted to run cas2 4-4-7

i will restart and see if i can push lower timmings like cas 2 2-2-4

im totaly liking how easy this system wa to put together. took me less then 30 mins to switch cases and every thing in it.

i have also found that in my new case , when i have the side cover one i run about 4c cooler then with it off .. eh i wonder why.

lansens · Post by **lansens** » Fri Dec 19, 2003 12:15 am

Try your memory timings @ 2-2-2-11. It did wonders for my Corsair with the 2500 and NF7-S.

pimptrizkit · Post by **pimptrizkit** » Fri Dec 19, 2003 12:48 am

alright

can any body tell me watch each number means and weather a larger vaul or smaller vaule will work better or any guides?

2-2-2-5 didn't work

pimptrizkit · Post by **pimptrizkit** » Fri Dec 19, 2003 3:47 am

it didn't like cas 2 2-2-11

im gona back them off make em real slow and see if i can get past 450fsb

oh and here's a link to some pics i have tooken. i got a new case and what not.

it's a dragon case with out front usb made by Chieftec and i got a okia 550wat psu with this case. got it for 35 bucks becuase the case didn't have rails and was returned for that reason.

i come home pull a cd rom out of my old box and slide it right in wala it freakin worked

http://www.hardwarecooling.com/product_info.php/cPath/34/products_id/278

now i just gotta invest in a red light for it

http://12.211.18.13/computer/

any ways thiers the link im gona leave my computer on running burn in test hopefully to strengthen it i have heard people say you get a lil more out of it after the burn in.

JTMON · Post by **JTMON** » Fri Dec 19, 2003 5:09 pm

I'm at 2.2GHz on a7n8x-dx, had it up to 210 FSB but it wasn't stable, didn't mess with the timings enough, gonna try 2447 and see what happens, I had bumped vcore and the ddr votage already.

you may want to try and resize them pics or find a faster host,man it takes about 2 minutes to load a pic here on my roadrunner.

if ya need some temp web space let me know.

Hell yeah.

yea im sorry it's my comcast. upload sucks i will try to upload them to a faster server. it can be a drag.. waiting for pics if i cant find a place i'll pm yea and send you a file or 2 that i want posted

It's also because you need to resize the pics.

Tawcan · Post by **Tawcan** » Sat Dec 20, 2003 6:10 pm

What kind of voltages are you using?

pimptrizkit · Post by **pimptrizkit** » Sat Dec 20, 2003 6:55 pm

i have my vcore at 1.7 my memory at 2.8 but it runs 2.9 for soem reason in my monitor.
i have left the agp voltage and the chip set voltages alone.

Tawcan · Post by **Tawcan** » Sat Dec 20, 2003 6:59 pm

I'm runing about the same set up as you except my ram is Corsair PC3200 XMS ver 1.1. My Vcore is at 1.8 though.

I'm running at 11*211 right now. Seem to have a hard time pushing it above 220.

What kind of divider are you using? 5/5? 6/6? or?

pimptrizkit · Post by **pimptrizkit** » Sat Dec 20, 2003 7:19 pm

i haven't messed with em but i have gotten 221 fsb my divider i belive is 6/6 not positive.

fsb221 is the highest ive manages to get. i dont kno if the cpu doesn't want to eb pushed on or if it's some thing else(stable and boots to windows)

pimptrizkit · Post by **pimptrizkit** » Sun Dec 21, 2003 3:52 am

alright im running 221 with vcore 1.7 memory 2.9 and i left the other settings alone. i was able to get it tp post out of the bios but not into windows at 225 tried 227 with horrible memory timmings and it wouldn't do it. i dont kno if i need to raise my cpu voltage more i think i tried 1.75 but dont want to slam it with alot of volts cuz it needs to be a trooper.

im gona run awhile at 2.44ghz and see how stable it is

oh it's at 38c at idle and 42c at full load is this any good?

or make sense. doesn't seeem like a big increase.

Man dude, if you would invest in some better ram and a watercooling set-up it sounds like you could take the chip to 2.5-2.6ghz with ease!

pimptrizkit · Post by **pimptrizkit** » Sun Dec 21, 2003 3:40 pm

i will be investing in wcing soon but probaly not until around the summer months.im gona get another stick of geil 3500 cas 2 3-3-6

i have a question. they say this is pc3500 with cas 2 and timmings 3-3-6 shouldn't i be able to have this memory at 216-217 fsb with those timmings?
im not sure if i am achiveing that but i will double check and make another post. but my plans are to get another stick run dual channel and wc my cpu and chipset.

----------------------------------
alright 217fsb at cas 2 3-3-6 434 i should be able to squize a few more mhz out at this timmings but i'll try it l8r

pimptrizkit · Post by **pimptrizkit** » Tue Dec 23, 2003 5:34 am

i got it to boot at 404fsb at timmings of cas 2-3-3-11

im gona do a memory bench and post my results.
