i overclocked my pc frm 2.4 - 2.8GHz. anyone ever overclocked more than 50% of the processor's stock speed? would really like to hear your opinions :D

:o 50%. haha. im from amd 1800+ till 2.15ghz. :P

is that really 50%? ur using palomino or tbred? socket 462?

no 50%. just kidding. mine is tbrgd-b. certainly socket A :lol:

i tried 50% pc hang.......so now only 10% hehe....dun wanna try again ar......later spoil my processor nia...y dont u try it n tell me more haha :P :P

:) may we know ur computer specs please.

hmm, check ur motherboard, and BUs speed.

i think 50% ah? kenot lah... if Intel i think can...

mine AMD Althon 2000+ @ 1.6GHz OC to 2GHZ only

can u go above 2GHz? i thought AMD very good for OC compared to Intel. even though the heat is really hot, but if u use a good cooler, its btr than intel.

u say that yet u'r still using intel... i don't understand u lar...
AMD rules!

hey, im Intel GOING to AMD. my bad. i was new so i wasnt used to AMD's platform. :P .

:) i have an ADM2000+ before. maxed out at 2ghz. im getting my 1800+ soon. which can overclcok till maximum 2.52ghz :wub: but no money for amd 64 let alone amd fx-55

me 2. i need cashhhh $$$$$$ :(

Another OC'er here
P4 2.4C @ 3.12 @ 260FSB
Remark : Using Stock cooling with 2 xtra 92mm fans (1 Intake, 1 Exhaust)
Max Load Temp : 56Celcius
Been using more than a year, lovin it

Erm 50%, that's nuts! Only saw someone ever reached 4GHz plus with 2.4 with water cooling. Never saw one with 50% before <-- perhaps ones with world record

Other rigs OC before
Pentium MMX 200 @ 233
AMD K6/2 500 @ 550
Pentium3 600 @ 700 something (Fren punya PC :P)
Celeron 900 @ 1.1GHz <-- crappy

:o wow. quite good. try 3.6ghz. B) watercooling. anymore can afford it here?

for me, 56 celcius is very hotttt!!!

what's u'r average temp.?

Wut to do... I oni have stock cooling, no more budget
56Celcius still ok for me, touched the heatsink not so hot
Average temp should be around 50-52Celcius

3.6 is too much for me, can reach 3.3 <-- crappy
Disregard my previous statement, 2.4 @ 4GHz, :wub: think that is wrong, that guy should be running a 3.2 @ 4GHz or something

Siawgu, r u who I think u r?

can u increase ur fan's RPM's? like my motherboard, it has this Q-Fan technology where i can increase / decrease the fan speed. try checking ur bios and see wether it has that feature or not.

I'll have a quick look later but I doubt it cos my mobo is Abit IS7-E.
That is after I go back, now catching anaconda using Company Pc :lol:

buy Thermalright heatsink. very very very very good. :)

Hi guyz ! :huh: well, i have overclock my Pc from 2.8=3.3 and it seems like working well now.. but sometimes it will hang =)

So i recommend overcolckers get a better cooling system =)

i just bought the Jet 4. quite good cooling system. it still maintains below 45 Celcius overclocked from 2.4 to 3.06 :P . the fan runs from 2500 - 3500 RPMs. and the highest reading i ever got was 50 C. usually it reads at 39 - 42 C :P . but i still think cooling by Thermaltake is better.

im suing thermaltake 12. quite ok.

THERMALRIGHT > THERMALTAKE

Borneogeeks, there was an option called EQ Fan, option to change from 90% to 60%, seems like it's only for slowering the fan and I'm already running at max.

Correction : Idle/Average temp around 41Celcius
Max Load Temp : Will edit after I go back check, sleepy last nite <-- Yawning...

well, i think u maxed out the rpm speed already since the maximum speed i can make is 15/16. it wont let me choose 16/16. maybe u shud get a new HSF? what proc r u using?

:) just got my new cpu. 2.3ghz At 1.725volt. stable. woo :wub: trying 2.5ghz soon

P4C 2.4GHz

hey shoot, im using 2.4C also. r u using N-wood or Prescott? whts ur cache memory? 1MB / 512kb?

It's a Northy
Malaysian Made
Stock Voltage 1.565V
Stock Cooling

Luv this 2.4C, it rawks!
I see ur siggie went up to 3.06GHz, cool!

ok shoot. here's the shocking news. im using P2.4. im supposed to be using N-WOOD right? but when i checked using CPU-Z, im using PRESCOTT technology. and i also have 1MB L2 Cache memory. weird huh? :huh:

It's most likely to be a downclocked Prescott. I have a feeling your motherboard might be giving wrong information.

Try and get a BIOS update, and see if it clears that up, because no Prescott has ever been recorded to be clocked that low.

:) ya flash new bios. would do more good than farm to ur pc.

just look at MD proc overclocking. very yummy

flash new bios? how do u do that? :huh:

My overclocking result is modest, at best. Only FSB255. (= 3.3 Ghz only. Not much.

Goto the ASUS website, and d/l a suitable BIOS for your motherboard. your motherboard dcumentation or the ASUS website will teachyou how.

i already downloaded the latest one, 1019 :huh: and i dont think there's a newer version.

Re-flash your BIOS ;)

It's possible your BIOS might have become corrupted and what not, due to perhaps unrealible voltages, power outages, etc. No, not due to overclocking. (=

hmm flash using floopy disk. you better read this article http://rojakpot.com/showarticle.aspx?artno=93&pgno=0 .


do asus have windows based bios flash? :)

Guys wait..
There is a Prescott at 2.4GHz and 1024KB L2
Refer to my posting in processor

There's nothing wrong with that. Just that that proc is using newer technology
1. a 90nm process
2. 1024KB L2 cache
3. 1.4V <-- Consume less power
4. Supporting extra SSE3 instructions
but it runs at 133/533MHz FSB
