oh.. ok wink.gif sory still newbie. but still failedin one copy.
Vdimm +0.1v.
ok will try later biggrin.gif
Vdimm +0.1 means.. 1.9v? default at 1.8v right?
*
Try increase yr Vdimm =+0.3 and Vcore to around 1.375 or even 1.4..Remember to lock yr PCI freq to 100MHz ....Use TAT to measure CPU temp...

@Tampoi
its nt bug.. actually tht setting is not stable one.. Failed Prime test.
I tried 1:1 setting before.. but my E6300 cant go beyond 437fsb. So i have run 2.5 multipler try to 'burn in' my ram because i dunno how to use memtest.. dont have floopy driver too.. tongue.gif
*
errr...that is not a proper way to burn in yr ram.
For memtest (window) just run 2 instance, choose "All unused RAM"
For memtest86+ (DOS), U can boot into DOS using USB thumbdrive...

yeah.. i think something wrong on my HSF. How u all apply the thermal paste on the processor? maybe my method was wrong..
*
got 2 methods i know off:
1) AS5 official guide which I normally use AS5 application guide
2) Other method is "In the center of the cpu heatspreader, put a drop of thermal paste the size of one bb. Then just squish it down with the heatsink, lock your heatsink in"

wao.. preety good temp @3.20GHz..
i am planning to get a scythe infinity or scythe mine  too..
but someone told me Ultra-120  is better.. rclxub.gif
how much Ultra-120 cost?? wht was ur oc temp using stock fan??
THANKS
*
Ultra-120 around Rm200+...not sure about market price. I got it from a forumer here.
I dun use the stock cooler so ddont know the temp. I actually upgrade from XP-120 to Ultra-120...I got around 10+C reduction from this upgrade.

Side Note: I couple ultra-120 with NBM 12X12X38 (sold by AllnGap) running at low speed. I tried full blast the fan, only around 2C drop. But I cant bare the noisy... rclxub.gif rclxub.gif . Now fan stay at low speed@1700RPM

i m using scythe mine now...but i think ultra 120 is better.... well i have no hardware to test out the infinity yet as my fren find its hard to remove it...so i cant borrow it from him sweat.gif compare ultra 120 to infinity they shd be around the same according to reviews but the size of infinity is just too big, u might have fitting problem ler.... since the performance of ultra 120 is around the same as infinity and ultra 120 is smaller in size.... it shd be better... well just my 2 cents....  whistling.gif wanted to get also from svc.com few days back, they put put the price wrongly .... usd 39.99 only...then the 2nd day i check again it goes back to 49.99 sad.gif

now i have 3 air coolers in mind.... infinity , ultra 120 or tuniq tower 120 tongue.gif

btw my idle time for scythe mine + fm121 fan @ around 1700rpm is 42 - 45 degree without air cond and loda will be around 58 degrees or 60 sweat.gif....i dunno if its good or wat...conroe is so freaking hot!!!! vmad.gif

Aiseh...U should had act fast had grab that Ultra-120.... laugh.gif laugh.gif

Yr idle temp seem to good to me. Mine idle around 45-47C. rclxub.gif rclxub.gif
But your delta after load is kind of bad...Maybe yr Mine cannot tame yr beasty E6700@ 3.77GHz sweat.gif sweat.gif
Why not give Tuniq Tower 120 a try since U can get it at state. We at here no chance to get it...sad.gif So far I didnt see any1 in Lowyat had it. Maybe can give us a Mine vs Tuniq Tower 120 review.. tongue.gif

Hi Magicdust,
If it helps these are my KVR533 1GB Hynix C4 sticks - slightly diff code though.

[attachmentid=153828]

Currently doing DDR800 4-4-4-10 @ 2V.
*
nice result U got there...C4 is a nice value chip. thumbup.gif thumbup.gif I wish my Corsair VS can do that. Doing DDR800 4-4-4-12@ 2V as well...Memtest overnight, no error.
For 700ish, it is a bargain ( espicially at UK). Grab it b4 U miss out the chance.

anyone here mind to share your vcore setting for E6400? i'm not able to do 450 even at 1.6v with vMCH +0.3 and vFSB +0.3. By the way, my ram was capable of that speed.

E6400 L626A754
Mushkin DDR2-667 2GB
DS3@F7 C2

wow...U whack yr system till extreme sweat.gif sweat.gif ...hope U had good HSF and active cool yr NB and ram.
Most of DS3 mobo had difficulty in overclock above FSB450. Only few lucky 1 manage to do that. I suspect either yr Proc or mobo chipset had hit the wall.
U might want to try Asus P5B-Deluxe which prove to be more overclockable compare to DS3

just a question, why Asus P5B-Deluxe? Is it different than the cheaper variant, Asus P5B, other than the wifi, etc?
*
P5B had only 2.1v on Vdimm, P5B-E/Plus/Deluxe had 2.45vdimm (or more for Deluxe version..Not too sure). 2.1v is just not enough to push some of high performance ram like Crucial 10th Anniversary or GSkill HZ series.
U can get P5B-E (becareful with board revision) or P5B-E Plus if U dun want the Wifi and SLi feature.

QUOTE(coolice @ Nov 14 2006, 10:16 PM)

How much U got it and where? Post some comparison pls..since U used DS3, Biostar and now P5B-E plus

Thats really bad, max i can go was only 440. By the way, mind to share your oc result? how much vcore u applied to hit 400?

Joining the C2D OC club...
Everything on stock: stock HSF, stock VCore, VDimm etc...

E6700 @ 3.15GHz @ 1.325V (stock)
315 x 10
5-5-5-15 512x2 Corsair DDR2 1.8V 1:1
P5B Deluxe
Orthos stable 6+ hrs
Max temp on stock HSF: 75C on CoreTemp

Tried but failed on 317 so 315 is the max I can go on stock.
Thinking of dropping multi before having to bump up voltage.
I seriously need to get a better HSF.
*
Ya...75C on load is not cool at all. There are Scythe Infinity on sale from Rlhh...I am sure it will cool down at least 10C compare to stock.

shud i ask or shud i not...ask away je la...
just got the 10th Anni ram...and run the memtest...my rig=sig.
run the proc wif x6 multiplier, and ram at x2, push the fsb to 495...so the ram shud be 495 x 2 = 990@44412 and proc is 495 x 6 = 2970...fine boot up ok...masuk memtest...running the test #5...then i noticed the Proc was reported as 3465 which is 495 x 7 ??? i wonder is it just memtest misreported my C2D clock or what?
and btw, i think some results will be reported shortly... thumbup.gif

is a bug ..happen on me as well...but is nothing serious...cpu-z still report correct timing.
I running 1000Mhz 4-4-4-10 @ 2.3V..rock stable... thumbup.gif user posted image
Able to boot in 1025Mhz 5-4-4-12 @ 2.3V just now...but havent able to find a sweet spot for my Vcore...will update u all later

Update:
I plan to flash DS3 to bios F8i...see it will help my OC result or not...smile.gif

does ALL KVR 533mhz can be OC to 900mhz and beyond?

i'm jumping to C2D side this this month rclxms.gif

other component in my list:
1. C2D E6400 (from bulk, probably)
2. Gigabyte DS3 or Asus P5B-E+
3. AC Freezer Pro 7
Limit RM1.7k

any comment or recommendation? wanna OC heavily.
btw, how much is asus p5b-e+?
*
6400 is a good budget choice if U want to hit 3.2GHz and beyond.... thumbup.gif
Asus P5BE+ is around Rm670, but is a good board with more chance to hit higher FSB than DS3.
About the KVR, it depend on wat ram chip...famous KVR chip are C4 which can go higher.
Happy OC.....Cheer
