here is my 1st effort.

i think the ambient is around 27-28 non aircon room but highly ventilated.
btw my hyper 212+ is on pullpush config.

Whats the best oc for i7 860 has anyone achive?
Want to see the setting and temp.

Ts. You should do a oc database like the AMD thread.
At least we refer for reference.

new i5 user here...
count me in ya guys...    

I did a little more tweaking just now. Now its running 3.6Ghz@180x20 on stock setting. I bump Vtt a little to 1.15v when windows hang during prime95. Ram at 1440Mhz@1.65v with loose timing just in case. Im running prime now. Will check if got error when i get back home later today....

Im still searching for software to report voltage. Non seems to work for me in win7. The MSI control center report at 1.78v regardless of how much i lower. It only show different reading once i push above 1.8v. So now im not sure is it a bios fault or the software fault...

Thanks.. i think tht is the case as i cant find any software tht can report voltages to me except vcore. Only the MSI control center could. So there is no where for me to double confirm the readings

After more testing. I come to the conclusion that my rig cant support bclk above 180 with ram ratio 4. Means i max out about 180 x 20 @ 1440Mhz which is about 3.6ghz. I have no idea what is the problem.

If i test seperately:

bclk
max out about 210 wit ram at ratio 3@1260Mhz

memory
max out about 170 wit ram at ratio 5@1700Mhz

I just cant make them work together...

Now im running a compromise of 3.9ghz @ 205x19 @ with 1230Mhz ram.... such a waste.

comment on my settings....is dis temp ok??anything else i can do to lower d temp or its normal??

now i'm starting all again...lol...
cleared d cmos...
wanna see how much can go without any +vcore...1.251v is default for dis proc rite??

@-pws-

1.097v

Welcome to the club bro Your i7 sold already? What mobo are you using for your core i3 now? Any o/c result so far?

corrected, wow almost the same as me, except the ram, share up your o/c result later

yaya, bought in rush, dint notice it dont come with ide, damn anyone interested to buy
have no time to overclock now, but miss i7 alot
that day went to lowyat, not much ram to choose, all run out of stock the the price is sky high

Anyone here can do i3 4GHz+ prime blend stable? 2-10 hours?

I just do 4Ghz, load 65'c only But the ram can't do 2000 even with CL11, I dont want to bump the voltage, risky rather get Dominator GT DDR2000 CL7 and then O/C till 2133 CL9? Well about the temp, maybe if you sponsor me something I could do 4.5

On top of that this poor ram having problem running 1900 9-9-9-24 1.65, memtest 4.00 5-6 passes but prime95 blend will fail in 5-10 minutes or if lucky 20 minutes. Fatal error rounding was 0.5, expected less than 0.4.

RAM or temperature?

I dont know I need 1.7v to play

1866 8-7-8-22 1T

or

1900 9-9-9-24 2T

I wouldn't dare raise higher. Although this kit is CMT, latest revision hardly die... but I just dont wanna spend $$$ anymore if anything

noob here, building i5 750 pc.
if i using ECS P55H-A blk mobo,
can i overclock with this mobo?

btw, I wanna ask something. what software do u all use to monitor the temperature on dimm?
