ARGHHH!
my OC ain't stable...*sniff* prime and occt and memtest86+ passed, but it hangs during processing

my bet is on my enlight 420w psu...guess it ain't supplying enuff juice since i OC my gc too....oh well, CNY's coming. any nice + cheap + good psu to recommend ar?

no cap ayam psu or icute aka akucomel psu yah....tqtq

Provided the vdimm is not at SPD default, then I would say don't take a chance. Hey, we are overclockers, CnQ? What's that anyway.

At stock setting and CnQ enabled

Temps at idle


Temps at load


I noticed at even at stock settings, the temps at load is just a few degrees less than at OC speeds.
sidenote: My Smartguardian's readings is really weird. Even at idle, it reports CPU temp at 47c and the settings in Options are greyed out.

eh wanna ask, isit normal to have 40c system temp? i overclocked my amd 3000+ abit untill 2.4ghz

what the highest speed for default vcore u can get??

i'm running at 267 x 9.not priming yet but can finishing super PI 2M

Dude, how to know that the CnQ is running? Already turn on all the recommended feature like BIOS CnQ on. Minimum energy save and install the CnQ AMD driver.

since this thread has become database why not rename the topic title ?

raise the chipset voltage abit & set lower ram initial speed. also look at the ram 1T/2T memory timing. 2T will improve stability at high cpu clock speed with a performance penalty.

heat increase = resistance increase. better hsf will help lowering the cpu temperature and resulting better electric signal within the cpu circuitry.

this is not the case actually. 1 thing to remember is athlon64 family have integrated memory controller (IMC). higher memory speed will heighten the burden on the IMC. athlon64 can be easily push too more than 500MHz from it's original speed but on higher clock speed the IMC will become the limiting factor along heat.

As according to my review in order to overclock under a stock heatsink u might wanna consider to remove the IHS... but u gotta do it carefully though, try to visit my website www.xpentor.com find an article about removing it. it's well worth it. 6C difference!

Well when I started this topic, I did not know anything about overclocking. I know you OC a bit using the stock HSF, but I don't know how far. That was the original purpose of this topic.

Now that this topic has become some sort of a collection of results. I would like the results to be comparable as I now know you can get higher CPU core speed by running the RAM at below spec. Therefore % gained is incorrect.

or do you people want seperate headers on the 1st post to show something like this....
Stable overclock (optimum CPU/RAM setup)
Stable overclock (Max CPU core speed)

well CoffeeDude now i understand your situation. high congratulate to you for starting this topic considering u have less knowledge about overclocking. i'm sure whoever interested to seek up the challenge here will have no issue giving you out enough input to make the database/result better.

we have a database for ram overclocking/benchmark and gpu benchmark here. IMO it will be better to stick with the initial topic along it's requirements without limiting the technique either by software (excluding software for cheating) or hardware (excluding the stock HSF).

my suggestion here u may seperate the header for difference class of speed such:

1. 3000+
2. 3200+
....... and so on.

after all it's up to u to decide how the data on the database is filled.

ello guys... wanna ask... im sure that room temperature will effect how well cooling can take place... tried OCed my proc in my sig, 265*9, ddr333, 1.45v manage to pass 3 hours prime 95 but my temp almost reaching 50 which i think is da highest i wanna go... can sumone confirm wats da recommended temp other keeping it safe below 50... btw my room temp is almost reaching 30 degreeC... quite hot rite...

here's my stepping :
ADA3000DAA4bw
LBBWE 0545CPAW

thanks for the quick reply... will try later to hit 300htt since there has been report of my rams can hit dat high on loose setting and of cource divider.... btw should i off my folding first before doing prime... last time manage to prime 3 hrs 265*9 ddr333 with ym on and folding at 50% .... hrmm come to think of it, maybe thats the reason for da high temp ....

hrmmm.... if it does not effect da temp, wat bout da stability... since folding oledi eating up 50% proc load, wat happens if run a blend prime or 2 sets of prime....

My result :

50% * 2700MHz * 245MHz * ahpaul82 * E3 LBBLE 0516 CPBW # DFI LP UT NF4 SLI-D * Corsair XMS3200PRO 512MBx2 * 1.5v+110% * 53c 

Which better AMD64 3200 s939 + vs AMD64 Opteron 144 s939? 

Here's an update

LBBLE 0522 FPBW

Idle temp - 40C-41C(BIOS 43C)
Full load - 46C-48C(BIOS should be 50C++)
Vcore = 1.36V(STOCK)
Vdimm = 3.20V (512MB TWSP BH-5)
LDT = 3X
HTT - 289x9
Mobo - DFI LP UT NF4 SLI-D
HSF - AMD STOCK HSF

Wish you luck,heard that new week 060x doing great on stock.
Set value 1.4v bios cpu core using 1.38v.
Have a look in s939 overclocking database."Stock volt for venice is 1.4v".
