So it's not as good as those e21X0 that is on G0 steppings?

Ehh wait, does e21X0 comes in G0 stepping?
Sorry, my knowledge in e21X0 series are low.

shwaty, first batch would be L2. Then currently on MO Stepping.

is this relevant for now?

1. CPU speed [ Possible FPO batch Included ] - 2.281ghz
2. Voltage @ Bios and Load voltage - Bios does not allow to mod the vcore
3. Motherboard - ASROCK 775 Dual-VSTA
4. HSF - Cooler Master X-Dream P775
5. Temp - 44-46c

the pics below are done with fsb @ 285mhz
more than that, unstable (reached 300 @ 2.66ghz at first (all stable) but super PI cannot complete - "not exact round")
dont wanna take risk
so i lowered the FSB
i also read somewhere that to stabilise the fsb, the PCIE also needs tweaking
i dunno bout that, so i leave it alone at 100

anyways, this time its stable - finished Super PI (32M) and Orthos (CPU Stress with Gromac Core)
wanna try Prime95 but Vista disallow Prime i heard (the option torture test was gray)

still, i ran games and stuffs all ok
wanna change gc first
my 5950u suffer ultra artifacts on AERO interface...



anymore advice?
the fsb wall for the mobo is at most 300mhz
but some people already went over the max at 329mhz (with e6600)
hmm....

So, which one is better?
L2 or M0

M0 is better, because in average, the M0 users are getting better luck ocing

Okay, that's good.
Been wondering which one should i pick between e2140, e2160 & e2180.
Which one will be the best choice? [For my cousin ]

Is there will be G0 in E2xxx series? From official website there is no G0.

Try to change ur mobo.Im sure you'd get better results as Asrock mobo's arent as good as Asus or Gigabyte in OC-ing.

well you could get an conductive pen and bump the fsb up through bsel mod, other then that, get an better mobo lor =/


depends, ur cousin mau OC anot? if he OC then try your luck at any of the 2160 or 2140, 2180 is not a good ocer( at least the current batches la)

He may just oc for his cousin or just teach him/her.

okay
i dont mind with the current fsb wall vs cpu oc limit
what i dont understand is, b4 i oc, i tried looking for the intel EIST and/or C1E to disable (cuz i heard if i dont, windows vista will be really slow with the oc) but my mobo has no such options in bios
how eh?

shouldnt be a problem, EIST and C1E is for power saving options only, and the only reason why you turn it off would be to help you overclock further as it conflicts (sometimes) with your OC =)...try looking under speedstep or something like that

On the other hands it helps to reduce redundancy on the Northbridge.

seriously
its not there in the bios
haha
i think my vista ultimate lags due to that
it really really lags
like warcraft3 also lag

dudes
finally
i formatted both my drives
and reinstalled vista ultimate in my 80gb hdd
now everything's ultra fast
i dont know why (i think cuz the other disk b4 got win xp)
anyways,i oc'ed the cpu till 2.6ghz and no shit its stable
and i changed the psu from MEC to CM Extreme 430w
hahahaha

aik, why la CM extreme 430w :S

no offence but i really dislike that psu, it killed 3 pc's already

u can try to increase the pagefile for windows to increase performance

err... CM..? good luck... be sure to get some bomb defusing squad's suit...

so unlucky?

i bought that PSU. tried. hated it. sell off to friend.

after a year or 2 of usage, it finally died. hehe. no computer were injured during the death, he just bought another (i think same one) to replace.

my CM Realpower 450w is fine though. so far so good.

relax
i plan to change in next coming months
after raya ke...seriously
i nak pakai raptoxx ke
ok kan?
hahaha
my dad's pc so far ok je with that psu but i heard good and bad stuffs bout it

Is there really case where a psu can burn whole pc? Hope it will not happen to me.
