The CPU-Z dispaly the proc as Manchester, but, how do you know it is Toledo? is it CDBOX and BVBOX thingy? I've heard somebody told me the same thing too, which the CPU-Z display the wrong info. By the way, here's mine, donno Manchester or Toledo screen shot @ 2500MHz @ 1.39V, Currently priming at 1.38V. water cooled with homemade water block biggrin.gif Max load @ 43C, at sunny day and non-air conditioned room.

But if you upgrade to DFI, then you need to upgrade your RAM as well, because AFAIK, DFI NF4 LP not friendly with CT or BT-d43.

I'm having problem overclock my AMD Athlon 64 3800x2....

Here's mY Computer tech:
1. CPU: AMD Athlon 64 3800+ x2
2. Harddrive: Western Digital Cavier 250GB Sata 2
3. Motherboard: ASUS A8N-SLI Premium
4. GPU: 1X MSI Geforce 7800GT TD256
5. Memory: Kingston 1GB DDR400 Dual Channel(Double Sided)
6. Disk Drive: Lite-On Dvd Rewriter
7. Speakers: Creative 5.1 surround speaker Model 5200
8. Power Supply: Cooler Master 550watt PSU
9. Fans: 1x Cooler Master LED Fan 120mmx120mm, 1x I-cute LED Fan 120mmx120mm
By adjusted the CPU Voltage from default 1.3v to 1.4. From 2.0GHZ to 2.15GHZ. Everything seems ok. The idle temp is around 40c and load temp is around 52c. But after i adjusted the CPU voltage ffrom 1.4 to 1.425 watt. And CPU frequency from 2.15ghz to 2.2ghz. The system just crash and show that i need to insert XP cd's coz some files are missing and said need to repair. But after i set the voltage and frequency to 2.15GHZ and 1.4volt. Everything seems fine. So i wondered wut's wrong? Temparature too high? Volt too high? Or???

My X2 is HOT! sweat.gif

Looks like I need to watercool it before I can do some serious overclocking.

My X2 capable to do 2.7Ghz but the problem is, I need to pump 1.52V in order to make it stable, my question are:
1. will it dramatically shorten the life of the processor if I continuously feed it with such a high voltage?
2. If the proc is dead because of overvolt, am i able to RMA it?
