sorries..
touchy arent ya

commando. 965p rite

uik noticed on ure siggy irenic u have an em2
sish cycom conned job by putting that under performance ram..
which they said it was their distributor that sold it under performance ram...

gee wish u all can feel the zalman PSU..... tested today...
cool..
cool...
muahahahaha cool
think me going whacko...but err cool

err have u found out whats ure max stable fsb
then also better check ure rams on that same fsb.

because rue approaching to nearer to a 1:1 ratio say example 800mhz ram at 400 fsb ... the timings tend to be more sensitive to stability.

also hmm i have a theory sometimes depends on proc

my experience...
e6600 on evga mobo max fsb stable 440
x6800 on evga mobo max fsb stable 475. weird eh??
bro's e6600 L30A on my mobo can do 490 stable...

guy
just found out something
pc-zone damn dumb...

in their pricelist they put the corsair dominator air-flow kit.
called them to ask whether they have... they said its a back to back order for this.
then ask them whether cudo has stock for this or not... they said again for them also is a back to back order for this.
then i said ok and he asked me to come to lowyat to pay a deposit and etc

all for a RM90 item??? what pay RM9 bucks for deposit...
are they freaking kidding me...

stupid staff...stupid policy for a RM90 item...
also pczone a bit dumb...for posting so much ram...but all back to back order..yeah....

dunno i just find this insane and ridiculous.

Added on April 11, 2007, 10:39 amdude it can be done
i have tried it
but it comes at a cost.
performance downgrade a bit
some games buggy
and worst of all u cannot use vista.
so u better mention that.

uik.. u mean ddr2..err
i was running at one time ddr2, 1066 CL4 2.2 for nearly a month.. 24/7....
highest ever overclock i did on the ram was 1333... with vdimm at 2.5 with the air con blasting on my mobo...

but after a lot of trial and error... all the rams seems to preform better than native mobo mhz with lower latency.. thats y some ppl are getting weird results with vista... which is very much true if u try everest/sandra benching...

my asus p5n32-e sli mobo just loves the bus speed at 400....freakish fast even the cpu latency was something like 85
but then again the board mcp died.. so geeee
bless that evga mobo..

also again note.
the 680 is an enthusiast board...
mean of enthusiast in this case.. ppl who like hardware.. like to overclock...like to find trouble... .....
sishh a few ppl i know bought some 680 boards and always goes something like this
"uik....lousy board"
"so difficult to overclock"
etc etc etc...
if u guys just want to overclock ure proc and ram...not like gila gila but something that u can run everyday... then go for the 650..
want to break some world records.. or in this case low yat record... but spend a month of daily nighttime without sleep tinkering to get the best balance system and something u can run every day.. get the 680 mobo..
plus.. out of 30 ppl who says i am going to sli in the future.. only 1 will or even none..

use occt.
easier to identify the vcore
usually the problem is vdroop.

occt will show u the graph... of ure vcore if u have speedfan etc...
then u can see how much it drop and adjust how much to increase.

so basically usually if u fail like after 3 hours etc is not ure bus speed voltage etc

usually vcore fluctuations..

the program is pretty good as u can see ure idle and load temps etc

advice not to go more than 63-70C on load.
and usually i run my test on occt for infinite time around 48 hours and then only orthos blend test for 24 hours.

if it pass this usually ure comp will fail like once in a few months..

hmm seems to be normal???

a lot of e6600 can clock to 3.6 from 1.41v-1.5v .. and it always depends on the cooling...

nice temps btw.

because it depends on cooling
also check your mobo stability at 400bus speed

my proc can do it with watercooled but on zalman i couldnt

ppl underestimate cooling on mobo... usually gives u lesser vcore to achieve the same ghz

my guess is the bus speed of 475.. he needs to probably overclock the mobo which is not a pretty good idea to run 24/7 in malaysia. kekeke... second the jump to 3.8ghz.. probably need some gila vcore to stabilize to run 24/7.
most of the c2d proc vcore after 3.6ghz tends to go up exponentially.

example
x6800 on my coolit
2.93 1.26v
3.2 1.30v
3.46 1.34v
3.6 1.39v
3.8 1.475v

x6800 on watercooling
2.93 1.26v
3.2 1.3
3.46 1.39v
3.6 1.44v

well thats my mobo limit on voltage... after that it cant go above 1.52 vcore

well u guys really want to have quick ways of overclocking

download everest and make it run on startup on windows ( it will do a proc frequency check... so geee if ure like on the edge of vcore).. also good if u enable the osd display with temps and vcore..

second use occt with speedfan.. use the graph to monitor ure vcore...

note get the best stable vcore and no fluctuations is the best.. increase until u can pass the 30 mins without any fluctuations... then only stress test with orthos .

after that only rams.. rams are pretty easy actually. just google up and find other ppls result and u would roughly get the idea where to start and how far u can go i recommend using everest and checking the highest bandwidth u can get. usually 1:1 is pretty good. also 500 bus speed does not mean it will give u higher bandwidth as there is a sweetspot for each mobo... evga example the one i had was 450 anything above that i get lower bandwidth. all running on 1:1 with the lowest latency possible.. also checked with running at 1200 CL5/ unlink 800 CL3 1T just to make sure.

mobo is the pain.... i recommend on this weather in malaysia leave voltages at stock for the mobo and just see how far the fsb can go.
until today gigabyte mobo sux at support.
evga is freaking excellent and u get a lot of info from us forums.

watch out for ure asus pwm probe temps.
just a caution.. try imagine that even though ure cooling off the die but the pins are heating that much heat...
