QUOTE(Sanko @ Oct 27 2006, 09:50 PM) i'm paring it with tt smartfan only. using TAT to read the temp. trying to get a new heatsink actually cause using xp90 since dfi days. lol. kinda outdated. I am using "old day" XP-120...taking too much foot space...blockin part of NB...cannot put good NB HSF on it..  The result also not so good...E6400@3.44GHz around 72C load from TAT... |

QUOTE(siauann @ Oct 28 2006, 01:48 PM) OT: dood ur vga cooler sold ka? not yet...want to re offer me?   Anyway, mine power chip is good till 900Mhz +- 10 Mhz (didnt really stress them). I tried change multiplier from X8 to X7 and FSB up to 450...surprisingly can boot and manage to complete super pi 1M test...but result only slightly better than DDR820. I run the above setting after reading this thread OC Secret. Maybe U guys should give it a try... QUOTE(Bliz @ Oct 28 2006, 01:51 PM) Just did some tweaking, still can't go pass 410FSB, the ram limiting me for sure, can't take more than 0.2vdimm, tried adding VFSB VMch all the same, can't go pass 410 while maintaining stability. 430 can boot though, but not stable enough to load window Maybe U can change multiplier to X6 and bump up yr FSB...see how far U can push yr ram...BTW, did u burn in yr ram? If not, try use memtest86+ and let it run overnight....might help a little bit... This post has been edited by mikelanding: Oct 28 2006, 01:59 PM |

QUOTE(yehlai @ Oct 31 2006, 01:35 PM) Need some help here guys Maybe U should try FSB440 and Vcore=1.5 or more...with X7 multiplier...coz I can boot with 445FSB with Corsair VS b4 i found tht my lousy cvs can reach 990MHz.. with 3x multiplier. (2.31GHz @330FSBx7). But when i tried 440x2 multiplier (3.08MHz@ 440FSBx7) during OC cant reboot. Can any OC pros tell me why? * +0.2 vDimm, vCore, vFSB, vMcH@ stock* \Tried +0.5 vDimm and 1.45 vCore b4 but failed\ My OC bottleneck by ths RAM?? 2nd question.. how much PCI-e should i lock during OC? (i never lock it b4 during OC) THANKS  |

QUOTE(siauann @ Nov 2 2006, 10:20 PM) wanna change then sell me ur typhoon vx Maybe is just software glitch. Dun panic...jz nw i play games wif 450x7 @ 1.35vcore but BSOD showed ram is 5-4-5-12 @ 2.1v memtest more than 3k% vmch and vfsb is +0.2v..ths setting pass orthos 6hrs and pass dual super PI.. meaning not stable enough?  shd i add vcore? or add more vmch/vfsb  By the way, do U cool down yr NB? I noticed after I replace the thermal paste with AS5, it become hotter. The original thermal paste on DS3 is sux to max. Dried out completely as shown on picture below:   I had to use soft plastic to scrap it off   Mirror shine as in original state..  Correct way to apply AS5 on NB. Thin layer spread evenly like butter on roti...  I now putting a 40mm fan on top of it in order to cool it down. ( Ya, I know is cheapo solution...hhahaha)This post has been edited by mikelanding: Nov 3 2006, 08:52 AM |

QUOTE(Evogenix @ Nov 3 2006, 01:50 PM) simple, yet efficient mod Nice temp. Mine @40C on loaded @+0.2v vMCH. Before was 43-44C (with same fan) how is your temp after reapplied as5? mine @ 33-34C on loaded @ +0.3v vMCH Evogenix How is yr setting? Fan on stock like mine? QUOTE(siauann @ Nov 3 2006, 06:02 PM) become hotter after reapply? how come? Becoz better thermal contact btw NB core and HSF lead to more heat transfer to HSF. By the way, I thinkin of buying PC Cooler NB-400CU (or NB-400AL better? ) to replace my current setup. Any opinion? This post has been edited by mikelanding: Nov 3 2006, 07:55 PM |

QUOTE(gengstapo @ Nov 3 2006, 08:18 PM) izzit? if not mistaken, our chipset already has it own sensor to read the temp ya..got 2 sensor...but dunno they mearure wear...

I like the design but I think not suitable for me since I upgrade from Xp-120 ( blowing mosfet area) to Ultra-120 ( directly blow toward rear casing fan).... this 1 not bad also edited:i owned both but too bad no temp sensor to measure the temp..

Mobo=Open case..so not sure..maybe 2-3C above ambient temp Idle= also dunno coz alway on dual folding which set to auto run Load= 59-60C (using Orthos Small FFTs to prime) using Ultra-120. 69-71C using XP-120 |

QUOTE(pierreye @ Nov 5 2006, 10:20 AM) Want to ask, normally which temp reading you all trust? CoreTemp (which suppose to read onchip thermal) or report by EasyTune 5? Reason is both reading is quite far apart. CoreTemp give me around 53 degrees while EasyTune5 around 41 degrees. For most overclocker, we either use CoreTemp or TAT. I dun trust EasyTune5 at all.E6400 with DS3 running at 400FSB. 3.2Ghz effective (haven't try faster. First boot already work at 3.2Ghz which is my target... cool!) at 1.4v Mushkin 2 x 2Gb RAM (value version) at 5-5-5-12 at 2.1v. Prime stable for 1 hour. I'm using AlphaCool watercooling and waiting for my MCW60 VGA water block and Northbridge HS-05 heatsink for next round of overclocking. Next target at 3.5 Ghz. I don't think my 7900GT can keep up with the CPU so this speed is good enough. I had same set up with U on Mobo and Proc. E6400 with DS3 @FSB400@1.4 Vcore. Corsair VS 2X1GB @ 4-4-4-12 at 2.1V My temp@TAT with Ultra-120: Mobo=Open case..so not sure..maybe 2-3C above ambient temp Idle= also dunno coz alway on dual folding which set to auto run Load= 59-60C (using Orthos Small FFTs to prime) This post has been edited by mikelanding: Nov 5 2006, 11:19 AM |

Dunno U guys know about this or not. I found a nifty software to change FSB for Gigabyte P965-DS3 and Asus P5B Dlx without need to restart PC everytime.
It called SetFSB. Download link: Click Me!! A simple guide on how to use SetFSB (in Chinese): SetFSB guide Warning !!! If you are a beginner, do not use this software. This software is for power users only. Use "SetFSB.EXE" at your own risk. |

QUOTE(blaxez @ Nov 6 2006, 06:48 AM) Another ET5 wannabe? ET5 sux...this is much more simple, stable and didnt require to install. Lot of folks at extreme system using it.Simple steps as below:  1) Press "Get FSB" for current 2) Adjust the slider or ">" to desired FSB. Then press "Set FSB" 3) 10FSB in the fly..

South Bridge (ICH8) for DS3 is using a thermal tape (pad) kinda of thingy...is much much difficult to remove. I basically need to use a flat screw driver to pry it open...
Do it carefully, U will be find. For Northbridge, after pop out the screw, just give it a little twist left and right... This post has been edited by mikelanding: Nov 8 2006, 06:34 PM |

QUOTE(siauann @ Nov 9 2006, 10:41 PM) y so worried bout vdroop? as long ur system is stable thr's nthg to worry bout hw much u set ur vcore n how much vdroop Vdroop is a big problem in overclock. The Vdroop is not just drop constantly..it kind of fluctuate. That mean it will cost instability... just my 2 cent There are some Vmod that prevent Vdroop on DS3 at VR-zone forum...But some said it will cost more harm than benefit...Read carefully if U want to do it...
