a very nice oc guide for new starter and oldman like me:

Dolk's Guide to the Phenom II

*credits to Dolk @ Tech reaction for this amazing guide.

my thoughts on d voltages:

htt voltage = needed when htt oc is done
nb voltage = voltage for nb on mobo, less critical for k10 oc
cpu-nb volt a.k.a imc volt = needed when nb freq increased, nb volt of older architecture like k8, important when htt/nb freq oc is done

judgin from d peekture below, nb on mobo nowadays doesn't really related to ram/chip oc since d built-in nb a.k.a imc (in d chip) is d one who's directly connected to ram. i mite be wrong thou... don't have enuf time to google, still can't find what's d exact role of d nb... arghh...

nb for gpu n pcie bus?

judgin from d diagram, yes... i wonder how big is d impact it has on oc. for sure not like d gud old day of k8 & b4...

nothing.. coz the gpu itself not fully utilize it..
if amd proceed to integrate gpu in the cpu later.. that nb become more useless..
that's the reason why nvidia pull out from the market..

it's still to early for gpgpu to replace discrete graphic imo. it will take few more years for d technology to mature.

for me, nvidia paid d price of bein greedy, that's why they're out of chipset business.

Actually,that dolks guide already in front page
I will update that Table later.Thanks

Wanna ask, hows the overclocking performance for the X4 9950 Black Edition?

it's moving to that direction.. same like intel..
now changed the name as PCH..
later the nb will only have to support that display port for mobo n other pci-e lane..
mainly focus on budget mobos..

basically in amd has 42 pci-e 2.0 lanes..
two - 16x (32x) for gpu - which no use to oc now..
four for connecting to sb..
six for others n integrated peripherals.. which more than enough speed..

my bad, i hardly browse d 1st page nowadays...

had a short spell w/ 140 watter b4. i'd say heat is d main issue which directly affectin d mileage. managed a 3.2GHz prime stable & 3.3GHz 3d benchable.

performance wise (same cpu clock) it's not too far behind from its predecessor in deneb, d things that separate d 2 are power consumption & mileage imo.

@AMDAthlon
the carta ah khoo upload on Post #1701 is very usefull
is better upload the carta on post #4 below AM2 CPU/DDR2 Divider Table ..so other ppl can review it

DDR3 1600 Desktop overclock memory module

．Specification: 240-pin DDR3 un-buffered DIMM
．Configuration: 128Mx8
．Bandwidth: 12.8GB/sec
．Voltage: 1.5V~1.9V
．CL:7
．Capacity : 1GB

guys, how about this?
any opinion from sifu2?
only got 1GB..but stock have 2pcs..

2x1gb not enough..

thats y!
i need to search another 1GB..
4GB is redndnt so i decide to go 3GB..
than my ram slot will full with 1GB slot
need to wait PC fair at jb, need to wait another 3week( is it worth to wait? )
but cant confirm have stock or not

u r in jb no? why not get from sim lim square in singapore? u sure got more choices than u have in jb.

go for geil ultra, either ddr3 1600 or 2133, they're pretty decent if not great.

yes!ank jati johor(jb)
dont tell anybody that i have never been go singapore
thanks for information, i will try ask my fwen to get it for me..

get d 1600 if budget is tight, amd won't fully utilize d available b/width of d 2133 model. save up d $$$ for other stuffs, perhaps a better cooler will help to further improve d oc mileage. 965BE is meant for 4GHz & above...

*give u some pressures...

Anak jati johor meh? U didn't go checking the pc shops around Taman Universiti, Skudai bro?
IIANM their prices quite good also.. I bought my oldies ATP3 from one of the shops there
Try survey2 ah.. Mana tau ada

Added on November 23, 2009, 4:51 pmAgree with this, a 1600mhz is gud enuff ler, IIANM AMD chips doesn't really like too high ram speed, they like tighter timings more

sudah bro...
klu ade pun KVR 1333-CL9-1.5v
sudah pusing 1tmn u..
my place oso in tmn u..

y all manufacture make their RAM utilized for intel?
and the item for AMD is very rare

less demand for amd system (for bein inferior to intel) mah... some more amd imc not as gud as intel, less headache for memory manufacturers...


@bro cloudwan,

any progress on ya kvr elpida hyper?

in lyp, ram for amd also not much option..
actually not amd only but for i5/i7 which need dual channel ram..
since the the price hike up.. make it even worst to get stock..
