the vdimm option is limited to 3.2V

but is there by any chance that the limit can be raised? what i mean by is, what vrail does the dimms run on? any idea?

but 3.2v is more than enough for TCCDs

Robyncom always got em cheap

what stepping is it? dinster said u got an E3 but from the CPU-Z it's a D0

the latest sempron s-754 is using E3 ler

but i'm more interested in how far yours can go

mine can do 2.5ghz, but not prime stable.

Super Pi 1M @ 38.578secs

cpu : AMD Sempron 3000+ (Palermo) @ 270*9 @ 1.65V
cooling : stock AMD
ram: 2*256MB KHX32000 (Winbond BH-5) @ 2-2-2-10 243mhz, single channel, CPU/10

max load 48'C on normal day, no aircond

i think he's on BH-5s, and BH-5 couldn't do CL3

anyway.... 2.5-3-3-8 is the loosest timing for BH-5 i think, any looser than that won't give any benefit.

hmm.... how come i didn't realized about this?

i can run 300*8 without any prob with ram at 245mhz

try increasing the chipset voltage

where did u get it?
i asked robyncom they only have 2500+, 2600+ and 3000+

i'm looking for 3100+ 64-bit

good or no good?

Robyncom has Sempron E6

but all of them are with 128K L2, i was looking for the ones with 256K L2

embuhnator, what motherboard and power supply are u using?

they're talking about Venice ler, not Palermo

it's normal that sempron A ot athlon xp running on high voltage eventhough only a little oc. that's why we prefer mobile athlonxp for overclocking.

At 300MHz HTT, I can do SuperPi 1M and 2M stable.... but cannot do 4M and higher.

Do I need more voltage on the CPU? It is already 1.3V * 136%. Is it because of the memory controller sucky? It's kinda weird coz most Palermo out there usually runs 2.4-2.5ghz speed with 1.6V or less.

Or could it be because of high temperature that it produces error during stress test? I'm only running on stock AMD aluminium heatsink... haha Still waiting for my XP-90 which is coming in a few days.

I already run RAM/FSB divider at 2/3 so that my RAM runs at 200mhz. RAM is set at 2-2-2-5 with 2.6V (Memtest stable for hours).

CPU : Sempron 2800+ Palermo DH8-D0
Stepping : LBBID 0514CPMW
CPU VID : 1.3V * 136%
HTT : 300MHz
Multi : 8x
LDT : Auto
RAM : 200mhz, 2-2-2-5-1T @ 2.6V
AGP : 66MHz, 1.5V
Chipset : 1.6V
(Every else is set at default)


Attached thumbnail(s)

to see the stepping, u have to take off the heatsink... no other choice.

Orite.. got that.

Received my XP-90 already... but currently no high cfm fan to play around with

Looks like a bit overvolt. Default Vcore for Sempron is 1.4V

Anyway.... your E6 can do prime stable at that speed?

stock psu is dangerous, can damage the mobo or hdd, or other component.

stock cpu fan is not really dangerous... i'm using it to OC at 300*8 ... max temp is no more than 54'C with normal room temperature at full load. it all depends on the cpu. sempron k8 usually runs at a bit lower temp compare to athlon64 at the same speed, bcoz of smaller cache.
