Hi guys,i am back to start with Ocing since stopped long time ago.
So i wanted to ask some recommendations...

Which 1 is the best budget & performance wise price to get and OC.

1-E6300
2-E6550
3-E4600

I am using a Gigabyte G41MT-D3 DDR3 1333 + Kingston DDRIII 1333 2GB.

In bios i set Vcore to 1.32
but in CPU-Z show 1.264V only..

why it show diff voltage? which should i follow?
according to intel website recommend voltage is 0.8500V-1.3625V

That is normal bro. This is due to actual power lost resulting from insufficiency of PSU and mobo conductivity (some percentage of electricity converted to heat loss). So often times the actual voltage will be lower than what is set on the mobo. CPU-Z would be more accurate.

Just take note that the actual voltage during idle and load will defer. Voltage during load will be lesser than during idle. you can compare it yourself under the CPU-Z readings.

Bro Jason
Thx for your details explanation.

I also realize that voltage during load will be lesser

no worries bro

happy overclocking

You must be typo there? CPU load requires more voltage than idle..
My CPU-Z shown 1.18V while idle, it increase to 1.19V while running stress apps..

hmmm wierd... i have seen this happening in my setups for the entire length of my overclocking experience since a few rigs already...

maybe yours is unique? hehe

anyways, it would be best if it does not change between idle and load. that would mean that you have a very power efficient system. like yours is even better for overclocking since more voltage during load will stabilize it

anyways, would need others to confirm this as well... i'm not expert... just sharing on what i know

now2. who care ur powah going down or up as long ur OC is stable...

push it to the max! burn ur chip!

I dont know, maybe coz I enable the features(in BIOS) to prevent vdroop during load..

cool... your bios is good if it supports those kinda setting. mine is 'ancient' ole skool mobo... haha

anyways, i have managed to push my E8400 chip to run stable at 500 x 8.0 = 4000GHz. voltage during load is 1.312v though...

RAM running at CL 5-5-5-15 @ 2.2v.

CPU cooling is on air using ThermalRight Venomous-X

nais.....

go for 5ghz! hehehe

Erkkss, I thought this features already avail. since Athlon64 s939 launched? Especially those DFI boards..

on giga board, it's called ' load-line calib*something* ' issit?

haha... really? man i'm damn outdated hahaha

using GA-P35-DS3 Rev 1.0

no such option in my bios...

Added on September 23, 2010, 4:29 pmi don't think that is possible???

cos i am on air cooling only... later my chip hangus...

it is possible yo~

dont aim for stable OC, make it as ur personal record. suicide run!

You are correct~


Hmm, dunno IF DS3 also counted as out dated~

Here's my config
Pentium Dual Core E5200 2.5Ghz > 4000Mhz @ 1.325V
FSB 1333 MCH @1.35v
CPU Ratio 12x
DRAM: FSB 12:10
RAM Kingston HyperX 800Mhz 5-5-5-15 @ 1.90V

CPU IDLE 32C, Full load 49C
Core 1 @ 40C-59C
Core 2 @ 42C-57C
Chipset @ 31C-32C

Prime 95 Blend test @ 24 hours - Pass
OCCT @ 9 hours++ - Pass
24/7 usage

Window Rating:
Processor - 6.9
RAM - 7.0
Graphic - 7.2/7.2
HDD - 5.9 Sadly - using RAID 0 on old HDD doesn't improve much

Playing HON always first to thired finish loading

nice overclock there.
the ram can do DDR2 800 4-4-4-12?

nice oc.
if ram chg to 4-4-4-15 might need higher vdimm and vnb
anyway, time to change to SSD

haha, waiting for intel gen3 ssd come out.
