Maybe ur 1 is 3000+ = 1.8ghz <> 9 X 200mhz = 1800mhz....

hey, better go read those Neo2 forums @ extremevoverclockers..make sure to use sata 3,4 , pci/agp lock and take all those necessary precautions when overclocking.

Hi all.. I'm wondering for the WINCHESTER 3200+ users, what max OC that you've got?

1. I managed to got 320FSB (x8.0) at 2.80GHz (UN-bootable)
2. Bootable 2.69GHz above 300 FSB (failed at Super PI test 16K)

this due to I'm using lousy 1GB dual channel KVR. I wonder what is your PRIME stable clock for WINCHESTER users?

what board are u using bro?

u better list down ur pc spec here

it depend on ur HTT.

lower than 230 = LDT set to 4

between 250 and 231 = LDT set to 4

250 and above LDT set to 3

Here's my screenie?
any advise?
3000+ Winchester
Msi K8n Neo2 Platinums

250fsb x 4 multiplier
rams are at 1T at 2.7 volts ( winbound ch6)
i cant go above 270. not sure why...timing at 270 with 166memory devider dont give me any good responds even at 2.85 volts


this processor should be able to go up 2.6ghz at 1.6 volts..but im not sure why its acting up. voltage for 2.2ghz is at 1.45.
even i pump up to 1.550(max this board allows), i cant really boot up also

anyone got tips and hints for me? i suspect my rams are the culprit..bloody dual sideds



Attached thumbnail(s)

what ram r u using? How bout if u lower the timing to 3-4-4-8 instead.

i was hitting 2.4 ghz 24/7 with my whinchester.

CH-5 chip is good chip also..

i think it can go higher than 200 Mhz very easy..

try to up ur vdimm

well, neo2 max vdimm is 2.95 w/o mod so he's not able to do some crazy 2xxMhz 2-2-2-5 with the CH5 of his.

ABIT Fatal1ty AN8 SLi
Kingston 1GB Dual Channel
Watercooled

did u up ur vcore when overclocking?

if u dont, try to up a bit

dude, look at my first question

It just for benchmark among WINCHESTER users.

well when i was using my k8n neo2 plat with my venice 3000+ with corsair XMS 4400c25pt.... i manage to hit 2.8ghz which is 300htt stable on air cooling xp90c + delta ff fan....

that was using bios v1.8

but right when they released bios version 1.9....i had problems...cant go above 2.4ghz.....then i tried custom bios....manage to touch 2.5ghz...

then they came out with a newer bios...but my best i achieve was with bios v1.8.....try downgrade ur bios to v1.8...i think u might be able to get a better result....

this is just from wat i went through....it might not be an accurate fact....but its based on my experience.....wish u luck...

im using winbound ch6's..should be equivelant to bh-5s but little bit more voltage needed than bh-5 to do what bh5's can do.

yeah i read alot about bios 18.
im using 1.b sideeffect's modded bios


i heard alot about bios 18. i will try it later and see how it goes. target to reach 2.4ghz.
offcourse im still on stock voltage as i just got this board n proc last week. will see how everything goes.

nope failed with 1.8's too
now im using sideeffects 1.37b bios
manage to pull 260htt...still priming after 2 hours...will see if i can push further to 270 later on .
i have a strong feeling its my rams letting me down. currently they are doing x166 devider at 215mhz 2-3-3-7 (2.8volts) at 1T

Is there something wrong with my temp..?


2.9V

your temp ok a, just 30
CPU-Z wrong reading on V-Core your V-Core is 1.46.

^ I tot the vcore reading on CPUZ was real.. me got scared redy... phew..

i got 1 question please, lowering the speed of memory rams to achieve higher cpu speed OC, how does this compensate in performance?
I mean like OC the FSB and vcore to 2.2Ghz for instance, then lowering the rams from 200Mhz to 133Mhz to achive 2.6Ghz, how does this improve performance as the ram runs slower. Can someone explain to me pls?
I OC my cpu to 2.2Ghz only and but i havent lowered the speed of rams.
