My E6300 can run 1.275 vCore @400fsbx7 stable. I prefer undervolt vCore to get lower temp at higher clock speed.

Hi, i'm quite new to overclocking...please guide me along...thanks...

I've just got a new e6300 on a ds3 mobo. The problem is the cpu fan takes about 3 seconds to start spinning...is this normal?

And what is the stock temp for this cpu? My temp is 40C...normal? Im using the intel stock cooler with a normal coolermaster thermal paste. Do i need a new cooler?

And are there any uber noob guides to overclocking a rig with my specs? Would like one that specifically uses a DS3 as an example. I've read some of the guides in the pinned topics...but don't really understand most of them.

passed 2.5 vcore, so now doing 2.25 at 400x7
65C orthos load TAT temperaute considered hot?

2.5? 2.25? it is 1.25v lah

with stock HSF then consider normal lo.

mine priming 400x8 at 1.375 in bios highest in noon is 65c too. but i am using ultra120 >.< my temp  quite high

if get AS5, can reduce around how many degree celsius?
think i can go lower than 1.25 with 400x7?

it's normal, takes seconds to spin, if on fan fail warning in bios, lagi annoying, hear long beep ....
will get used to it...
well alot of ppl using ds3 including me....
basicly i started of following what yehlai said in a few pages before,
try 350fsb, 100pcie, memory x2, voltage don't use auto, lock it at 3.25... later tht u can discover yourself......can try lowering vcore to get lower temp, then torture test it with orthos

hi guys...i'm a bit out of touch with CPU stuffs alr...wanna ask...how does the clocks and multipliers work for C2D ... FSB is 1066 and core speed is 1.86ghz (E6300)...multiplier is 7...

I remember for P3 it used to be simple where FSB X Multiplier = Clock speed.... 100 FSB x 5.5 = P3 550mhz...but C2D i dont understand how it works...anyone care to explain to the newbie ? hehehe

RD600 shd out on 14 December, many ppl still praising about it.... hope its really good la.... Asus Striker Extreme Vs Asus P5W WS Pro....i stilll prefer WS Pro.... if RD600 turns out bad

vCore is 1.325 la dude...  lolz i scared tht guy fry his new proc if use 3.25v. Nid P.M him fast b4 he OC.
Edit:
Not much different. Your E6300 stock is 266fsb x 7multiplier = 1866 or 1.866GHz
If u over clock by increasing the fsb to 400fsb, it will be 400fsb x 7multiplier = 2.8GHz.
The stock vCore is 1.325v, vDimm= 1.8v

hmmm...how come from those web sites and price list it says FSB 1066mhz...if the FSB is 266...confused lar

Tht 1066 is Rated FSB. Its is 266x4 = 1066. ( i dunno why   u need ask other)
Ignore tht, just adjust the fsb. Stock reading should be 266.

Edit: check with cpu-z the u will see

all the sudden people are pushing down the vcore instead of pushing the clock higher... ... just tried mine last nite...now running orthos for 22hrs at 458x7 wif 1.325 vcore...will stop at 24hrs...
my e6300 history at 3.2G: 1.375 --> 1.350 --> 1.331 --> 1.325
burning-in does help!

hehe i am running 1.375 too for my 400x8 now~ orthos 21hours d. gonna follow u to decrease the vcore after that

ur orthos - blend or just stress cpu?

stress cpu...100% load...decrease bit by bit...takes time but it pays

You mean using TAT load 100% to test?? Will tht help to burn-in a lot?
