***************

Bought at Lowyat Plaza, it's can be easaily OC till 4.05Ghz, can boot into system, it's another legend budget procs from Intel.....

Just want to sharing this article.....if anyonce want to setup a budget CPU, then can thinks about it....

Freaking good overclocking there for a budget processor

omg celeron nowaday can smoke my E2180 same cache somemore

Yah loh.....Bro, that's why i recomanded to all want to build the budget CPU....

Yes, bro, it's come with 1MB L2 cache....same like E21XX series Pentum Dual procs.....but sure better then E21XX, cost all can OC gau gau.....and rich to 4 Ghz or more.....

But, for my information, not so many shop got sell it......

+ information, the Celeron E3200 got others POWER version, it's have 5 cap version, more OC power, but dificult to found it.....i am unluckly, my once is 2 caps version....

The 5 caps version Celeron E3200 like this:

bro...ur processor is duo core or what???sorry for noob question..how much u buy it?

336 FSB ?

for a dual core and 45nm architecture, i think can OC up to 500FSB .

can anyone confirm this ?

quite good but i can see that the vID is quite high for a 45nm proc .

500Mhz FSB can but the multiplier doesn't allow
Normally those 500Mhz FSB and above uses x8 multiplier unless you go liquid cooling

Bro, it's "dual core" , got two core inside, spec same like Pentium Dual Series, but the clock speed is highes..

I bought at RM 165.00.

Sure, bro, it's can go up to 500FSB, but shpuld be take down the multiplier, this one is 12, so is set to 6~8, i think should be rech to 4Ghz too...

i never try it.....because "high multiplier X low FSB" is better than "low multiplier X high FSB" ....i think it safely ....if i am wrong, pls correct me....

Yah...right...bro.....it's same what i meaning....
But i am never try to compare with both of them, which one better performence :
"high multiplier X low FSB" better or "low multiplier X high FSB" better...

I think the sifu-sifu in here can be explain for this....

im just asking maa , possible or not reach 500+ FSB .
i do know the fact that only 6-8 multiplier will be used .

if 500x12 use LN2 already la .

It depends on the CPU:DRAM ratio
but if compare 1:1, with the same speed, of course the higher FSB 1 wins in performance for CPU

if its like 4:5, whereby the RAM is clocked higher, the RAM is able to perform better than 1:1 ratioed RAMs

It all depends on the overclocker and also the chip & RAM, if no choice have to use 4:5, then fully utilise the RAM frequency and etc etc

ow well, 533x8 running along with DDR2-1066 ram with 1:1 ratio is good enuf for me ^^,

Ha..ha...Bro monsh, want to try??
We share share experience mah.......

Anyway kimtee, your proc performance in SuperPI 1MB also good
15 seconds range for a Celeron is darn good

What the proc lacks is in its L2 cache

The E7400 I have here OCed to 3.61Ghz 1:1 get around 14 seconds, and that is with 3MB L2 cache

Not bad.
Just for comparison. 4GHz E74 SPI 1M is around 13seconds+

-pWs-

i believe superPI count up is very RAM dependant, too.

lol. 500fsb? wat do u expect for a budget processor? my previous e5300 max out at 370fsb. this proc should be around that oso.

can you try to check its fsb wall for this proc? i wish to know :Þ.

Indeed. And PL level too.

-pWs-

Bro shinjite, L2 cache is 1MB, i set the NB strap/strep at 333(normally it's is 200), so may be this setting can hit more gua.....


Bro pWs-, 4.05Ghz is not very stable, just can do cpuz + superPi , but cann't run orthos / prime95......but reduce to 3.6Ghz, sure can......


Bro sharkeer, i think can .......unluckly, the RAM in my hand is value RAM, so i cann't test it.....

The meaning of Budget CPU, that mean all the stuffs are budget mah...... , so if using expensive stuffs, better buy the highend stuffs.....for me, i didn't have more moneys.....so just to build the budget CPU loh.....

TQ Bro -pWs- and alls....

i dun think so. unless u prove it to me.

This post has been edited by sharkeer: Nov 26 2009, 02:25 AM

let it try at 400FSB first. i wish to know too :}

You can always play with the memory divider to gain 400+ FSB.

the question is, can this proc hit 400mhz above?

All the Bro, i just try 2, 3 time for the moment......cann't hit to 400mhz.....via i lower down the multipler or increase the FSB, can not, just max to 335 FSB, may be it should add up voltage or VID......i will not yet try it....

TQ!!

dont bother. probably hits the wall edi.

Maybe you need better board . Board that can adjust GTL to 0.69/0.71 .

try pin mod your E32, if it still cant go over 335mhz, tat's ur processor fsb wall.

All my bro, yah...loh....oledi hit the fsb wall.....cann't up to 335fsbwith 12 multipley.....nasib.....
but cukup untuk saya....leh.....tak tamak......4Ghz is OK.....

My board can adjusting GTL, but try oledi....may be need better MB, cost this one not the very good OC board....but OK to me lah...

OC= Overpower, Costlower .... for the orang miskin.....

kimtee,see your celeron is very good in the o/c result. I would say a very worth budget proc to o/c.

Thank's bro, nasib baik saja dapat ini.....
but as i know , Celeron E3200 performance is better than E21XX.....any user if looking for budget proc, Celeron E3200 is first choise....

hi kimtee, i also achive 4ghz, but only at 1.5v

ur proc is good can achive 4ghz with below 1.4v

im using giga ep p43 ud3l

Congra, bro, may be setting problem , try adjust again, i think you also can.....

Can rach to 4Ghz, nice mah...

Good Luck bro.....

just some update....

the highest FSB i can boot to windows is 380mhz with x10 multiplier. however not stable to run any stress test.

could be stable if up a bit the Vcore but bit afaid (after some incident, hehe )

but now im using stably at 355x10 24/7. quite good for a chep proc eh?

will run more test, hehe

Ha...ha...bro, you do the good job.......

For me.....4.02Ghz is stable to normal working........cukup dah...tu.....

wah, u got 4ghz stable for normal working? i got 4 ghz also, but the volt still high, scared to use 24/7, hehe

If scared high volt, upgrade CPU cooler

I can do 3.6G stable with stock volt @ 300*12 VID1.2875 (with C1E and speedstep enable)

but whenever I try to increase it fail me on prime95 regardless what voltage i adjusted on :-
- vcore
- NB
- VTT
- PLL
- GTL

can someone give me advise. My target is 4.0G

so now that's d proven facts we all need to know .
the difference with higher end proc mainly the FSB wall .
damn damn !
could have been nice if at least could reach 400FSB .

usually can run 5-6 years as well...but 1 year n half or below than that i thought the proc can work now after OCing..haha

btw ts, u did mention budget proc, may i know how much each of the item cost?
