me thinks your temps are under-reported
still a nice proc there, not getting a Ninja?

im not afford to buy it.. but im still happy with the stock heatsink..
for the smartguard, well they read everything else perfectly.. suddenly thinking to touch the heatsink, just a little warm.. guess it correct edi..
not like the nb fan..

i just checked my fan model of the stock hsf, and here are the details that i get from delta's site:

Model: AFB0712HHB
Operating Voltage: 4.0 - 13.8 V
Current: 0.26 A
Power: 3.12 W
Max Speed: 4300 RPM
Max Airflow: 37.54 CFM
Noise: 38.5 dB-A

looks like if u wan to mod ur fan to 17V can potentially harm it..

Hi, I have changed the format to include temps. But I would say it is not a requirement.

And I would also like to clarify that I don't own this thread. I would prefer to go with general consensus.

newbieockids, I think a modded fan would still qualify. I'm not sure

My purpose of starting this thread is to find out how capable is the stock cooling. And I can see now that stock cooling is enough if I my aim is to run a Venice 3000+ at 2.5Ghz. If I want more than that I'd better go for aftermarket coolers.

thanx for the info mate.. i really appreciate it.. well i guess i need to check out the fan model 1st same like u do.. the thought just pass my mind("terlintas di fikiran" i hope it translated correctly ) after reading this article --> here

well dude, its all depend to the processor itself, and maybe ur luck too.. if u're lucky, u'll got a highly overclockable one, so the stock heatsink will b enough for them.. if u're not, u'll get the crap one, even if u buy some hardware for a better cooling solution, i believe the result will gain a little bit but it still not good if compared to ur investment for that cooling solution.. n yeah, googling some info about the procs stepping before u buying it, at least will give u any hope/chances to get one highly overclockable one in ur hand..

Well explained there.
Stepping/week plays major role in Clocking.
Good week will get higher clock.
$hit week will give $hit stepping even watever HSf applied.

qualified entry will be selected to enter the new S-939 oc database

requirements:
- 8hrs prime stable + cpu-z
- include cpu voltage, stepping & cooling method

for the time being, i can only select x800's result because he had his stepping in his sig.

still waiting for the stepping from the rest

40% Increase * tAmp0i * Athlon 64 3200+ Rev E3 * DFI LP UT NF4 SLI-D * 2x 256MB KVR PC2700 * Vcore - 1.48v * OC Speed - 2800MHz * Idle - 34C * Load - 44C

i just want to ask, is prime 95 instead of sp2004 ok with u all? if can i'll be posting my results up here...

its just the same.. np with me dunno bout others..

Not a problem with me too.

Everybody is welcome

wookie...still tweaking my new proc + mobo...

have a 3000+ venice E6 and a dfi lanparty ut nf3 ultra-d s939 mobo...so far hit 2.4ghz on 1.475vcore and 2.7vdimm running divider (166mhz).

will post screenies when i finished tweaking with it...

yay welcome to the club dude..

awww, stepping a, is it the only way to see on top of the proc?

a big probably i can say is yes..


me too so lazy wanna take it out yet

ya...that's the only way

since you guys are overclockers, at least you should check what stepping did u get when you buy your processor. if possible, check all the available stocks for the best steppings (refer to the databases on the net for good steppings)... can see thru the box mah. not just buy buy like that. rugi lor....

ahh, I'm newbie.
hehe, just got it straight from PCZONE a, that time just worried will get Venice or Winchester only.
erm, dont have any thermal paste now, so cant open the HSF and see.
Is it a must to apply back thermal paste after pull out the HSF?
hehe, my AXP I did last time didnt apply any on it

Now still can choose AMD processor meh? I think the processor are choosing the owner now.

Btw, where to refer the good stepping forum? I'm the latest stepping also include.

Finally did mine



35.7% OC * CoffeeDude * Venice E6 3000+ * DFI NF4 Infinity * KVR DDR400 1GBx2 * 1.472V * 2443.2Mhz * Load - 47C
