hi, all.. i need some advise on overclocking my p4 2.66ghz.
anyone can giv me some tips on overclocking the proc and the ram pls..
im using msi p4mam-l (old mobo)..not sure wether can overclock to 3.0ghz or not..
im using icute casing with a good air flow.

ermm.. i think u better read first d pinned thread.. so that u noe wat actually u r goin to do.. btw.. always monitor ur temp..

hi.. i'm trying to overclock my P4 3.06Ghz socket 478.. but it seem everytime i overclock there will be some failer like blue screen coming out and doesn't have sound when window is start.. is it because it's too hot?

Hey Guys, I am a newbie here.. i'm using a P4 1.7GHZ s478 400/533FSB
im not sure of my motherboard model because my manual book did not mention it...maybe it is not a branded mobo....
the chipset is VIA p4m266A. how far can i overclock it? anyone can help?

btw...
i am using ddr ram
256(333) + 512 (400)
any body willing to help?

My mom's 1.6a P4 can be overclocked easily to between 2.2ghz and 2.4ghz. You might have the same luck since your ram is capable of running at much faster fsb than the P4's.

is it i need to change my hsf? i m stock stuff...

i am a newbie...
currently using a Willamette P4 1.7 GHZ P4m266 - 8233(VT8751) 400FSB

how far can i go?
is it safe?

i am using the stock HSF...
DDR Ram 256(333)+512(400)

Pls help

if u berjaya,
do let me know.
i'm oso using the same rig as urs.

read this first to get the idea --> here
let us know what that u didnt understand..
hope this help..

supposely,i cant make it to OC my rig.
kalo terbakar,lagi susah.

thanx.

the most stable temp is about how much?
49'c?

no need if the temp is 55 n below..
but if u planning to use the overclocked procs speed for 24/7 daily usage, try find some nice heatsink to kept it below 50 all the time..

thx alot...btw, if i overclocked my ram too much , will the temp of the ram increased and caused my ram rosak?

depends on ur ram.. what is ur ram?.. what is the ic chips being used?..

kingston 512mb ddr400 pc3200

the ic chip?..

how about my power supply?
need to change???
i m using 450W psu..
but true power or nt i dunno la...

teach me pls

any processor cooler fan that can make my 2.66ghz oc to 3.02ghz temp below 40'C ? coolermaster ??

my pc most stable ar? in Bios is 45'c
in window is 39'c wor?

my power supply is Sollers BTX250 S250-C12 supports Intel Hyper Threading..
is it consider as Cha Pa Lang?
suitable to overclock ma?

get xp90c with delta FF 92mm

b4 that, ur CPU is presscott or northwood?

no worry....
because u always control your vdimm.

normally if u oc till the limit with a good ram.
Mobo will die b4 ram and CPU


I partially killed a P4P800 but by 2.8c and BT-D43 still ok.
On AI7 now

anybody can help me out?
pls

u need to run sometest to noe wheter ur pc stable or not... try priming it..

bout d temp its normal..this is due to software prob.. jus use it as reference.. d bios one shud b d correct one.. but sometimes d bios 1 also got bugs..

u try first lor do mild oc.. if d psu dun kaboom or dun fluctuates much, then can use for mild oc lor..

if i overclock my intel processor.. do i have to maintain the temp into below 40 degree in order to stable the system?

huhuuhuhh.. u use wat cooling o.. can get that temp... if intel keep it under 60c will b fine... for intel recommend u buy better hsf b4 starts oc... jus my 2 cents..

i'm using thermalright Xp-94.. so it should be fine..

then wait wat leh? already read d pinned thread? if yes, oc ler...

still cannot.. my PSU cannot handle it if i O.C..

hmm... wats psu u r using? chaplang?

enermax 400WATT..

ok wat... y cant allow?

edited: hmm.. after read d best psu for oc'er , i noe wats ur prob liao...

I'm now using P4 2.4c... but somethin weird comeout whn i try to oc it with my new RAM... I install 2 stick of 512MB PC3200 DDR Kingston... Bought it with RM175 each at December... Whn i oc the System bus... seems tht my system cannot boot at all... It seriously jammed on the boot screen... I remember be4 this... I'm using two 256MB DDR400 Kingston also... But those are planted with HYNIX chipset... With my old RAM... i managed to OC it to 2.6Ghz... But... with my new RAM... even i cannot increase the system bus... Whole system jammed down... What actually is going on? (I'm a newbie 'Noob' in oc... ) Thanks...!!!

guys...wanna ask something..is it normal for my hardisk western digital caviar 200gb temp reaching 70c..i just bought it..so curious about the temperature. feels quite hot....

huhhu... y ask here? anwyay its hot!!! btw mayb its sensors prob or watever... touch it to believe it...






try using one ram, see wheter thatd hold u bc or not...

http://valid.x86-secret.com/show_oc?id=69359

mind telling me what's the problem??

u say ur psu autoshutdown ma...


to confirm wheter its ur psu prob, i think u better plug off all hardware such as dvdrom, uv ccfl ...etc... and test it to oc it.. if still autoshutdown..then i think its ur psu prob..or jus plain loose plug?

dunno...

ah... any oher way to test it?? it's kinda difficult for me to unplug all the hardware inside my CPU..

huhuhu..i dunno .. mayb other forummer can help..

since u say it autorestrat, mayb it doesnt supply enough power..so unplug other hardware to reserve more power for d psu to use when u oc..

or mayb ur proc limited u already wit d stock vcore.. try increase d vcore can solve this prob or not...

or mayb random boot was causes by other hardware such as d ram.. try test it using memtest..

hope it help though...

One stick RAM used... Din help much... Also can't OC... And one more... it can't even activate the HYPER THREADING... THNKS... I think is the RAM Chipset's problem... Hahaa... I will try to use other RAM to OC it... THNKS for your advice...

hmm.. i think i will give it a try before changing a new PSU..

I have a Pentium 4 @ 2.66 Ghz overclocked to 3 Ghz.

I found out that once I rise my FSB to above 155, my system randomly restart when I'm using windows xp after using for more than 30 minutes. My friends say I can Overclock to 3.4 Ghz stable.

Is it because of my PSU? My PSU output is 400W..

here's my P4 2.4C overclock to 3.0 ghz on my shuttle xpc SB75G2 which using intel i875P chipset.. managed to reach 3.4 ghz but due to my pc on for 24 hours a day a set it at 3.0 ghz..

proc bought from zt_lee last month..

here's the cpu-z screen shot:



this is screen shot from from zt_lee

AFAIK, willamette proc cannot be OC unless it was engineering sample.. my fren got one engineering sample williemate which able to OC until 2.6 stable..

AFAIK also ur mobo cant oc..

anyway willamette vcore is high compared to northwood..

How do you manage to set 250FSB? Mine set to 160 FSB already keep on restarting..i heard you need to lock dunno DRAM frequency?

its depends on ur mobo, psu and ram.. anyway i think u can reach 200fsb with default timing if ur using right mobo and normal DDR333/400 ram..

last time my 1.8A can reach 160fsb (around 2.8 ghz) using normal DDR333 and Abit IS-7 mobo..

anyway what mobo and ram do u used?

Asus P4S800D-X
Ram ar..Kingston 512 ddr400
Pentium 4 2.66 533FSB

ur ram should be ok.. i guess ur mobo limited it.. as from wat i found in google ur mobo using SiS 655FX chipset and i heard that this chipset is not for OC.. mayb u can try mobo with intel 865P, 865PE or 875P chipset..

glad to hear that the cpu i sold to u is working fine
anyway, have u tried any higher? can reach 3.6ghz?
