tried OC using the noob way? amd overdrive

already using aod, but i cant get pass prime 95 test,
and i heard using bios is much more stable.
even the multiplier is 17, my pc still wont boot up

I'm not worried about the temp at stock speed, i was refering to the temp when u oc ur cpu to 3.8ghz.. What's its load temp when u run prime?

This is my SS at 3.8ghz, look at the temp there, whats ur load temp? Is it under mine or above it?

dont jump straight to the target speed..how about increase by 1 / 0.5 multi at 1 time...
sometimes works...

3.8 idle = 50
prime = 70, quite high right?

@cloudwan
your running 3.8 at stock vcore right? wonder y mine will jump into 1.440v when i running prime, nv touch the vcore

No wonder it wasn't stable.. 70c is toooooooooo high ler.. Anything above 62c is already too high to me

Nope, i adjusted my vcore, stock vcore is lower than that..
What mobo u use eh? I always notice using low & mainstream MSI mobo the vcore jumps quite a lot..

what board? some board have quite a huge diff in vcore when it fluctuate..
my old old old crappy mobo fluctuat 1.3~1.4vcore.. 0.1v is huge yo..

so, what causes the cpu temp too high?
is my hsf is not good?

Yup i would believe that would be a factor
u need to check ur casing airflow too, bad wire management inside the case can restrict airflow thus heat trapped inside..
BTW what thermalpaste are u using now? Most of us when oc use good thermalpaste like Tuniq TX2, TX3 & ACS5
It's not advisable to use those made in china garden variety thermalpaste

maybe because im using cap ayam termalpaste..
thx for the advise.

as mentioned on my sig, chapalang ecs
kinda regret getting the board now

couldn't agree more bout this bro... ~0.05. fluactutation is way too big to me. even w/ 4 or 5 + 1 phase pwm my g45 fluctuates ~0.05v... voltage adjustment oso a let down, not refined enuf. why can't budget board be gud (not as great as premium but atleast not like what i'm facin)...

well, i guess we get what we paid for...

955 + cheapo board aint a gud combo, too off balance. biostar is d lowest i'd go... not bashin ecs but support + popularity wise (to share + discuss tips, issue & etc) it's not as gud as others...

Miahahaha, beli kancil cannot expect mercedes punya comfort lor

Couldn't agree with u more brader, ecs is more of a use at stock mobo to me, if u want more, u better go with the other brands
