1.stock vcore usually around 2.9ghz to 3ghz, maybe more depend on revision.
2. Yes, that's the stepping code.

try fsb:dram ratio 1:1? maybe can clock higher

2.9Ghz to 3Ghz r u kidding me....??

i think mine was revision M0 according to CPUZ...

so should i push it to 2.9..?? 2.0 to 2.9 stock vol....really impressive

how to check whether mine was [SLA3H] or else..

i didn't change vcore setting also can reach 3.33ghz.

Depends la. My kid bro's unit needed 1.425v on 650i to whack 3.33Ghz. It's all in the batch revisions

bah 3.33ghz !!!!!!

Its really depend on chip actually.

My E2160 L2 can do 2.9ghz with stock vcore.
3.0ghz need 1.35vcore.

Anything above 3ghz need hugh vcore raise

guess what....when i read kentang post...i say to my self why can my proc do the same...and i terus restart my pc change the multiply to 9 to make it 333x9 = 3Ghz and save.......what happen next.....its alive....iam now running 3.0Ghz on stock voltaga, tq goldfries for your ..
post...32M super pi PASS now lets Prime for 8 hour...

nice leh. i only reached 3ghz+ a few weeks after i got the board, simply because the BIOS lack OCing features until a little update.

after that, 8x400. which is what i'm running now. record is 8x416 or something like that.

hmm my mobo supports till 1333 fsb.. so i gues wont be a problem changing proc..

the shop sold me e2160 @ rm400+..this was 3 weeks ago ..now u tell me

400? i got my 2180 for RM305 from lyp....2160 bout RM265 lidat..

GTG

which shop is this?



e2160 was never even at rm400 price bracket when it launched

haih nvm lo.. already kena.. but.. i changing to e6750 soon.. tomorrow..hehehe.. this time i get special price.. not from the same shop of course

which shop is it la..so at least forumers will know the bad repo and wont kena mar

oo yeah sorry.. the shop is in Summit USJ.. wont mention specifically.. just becarefull

sadly prime95 not stable with 3.0ghz..

ive change it to 322 x 9 2.9ghz stable but sumehow when i prime95 the first thread and the second thread not working in the sametime......is like this, thread 2 start loop 6 but thread 1 still at loop 3....but the prime95 is still running...can i call this fenomenon unstable...should i lower the cpu clock..??

GTG

what mobo are you using and what cooling setup? I remembered doing 3.3Mhz at 1.425v on a 650i and E2160 stock heatsink but had to supplement the cooling with one loud freaking Pabst

I must have the wierdest E2160 ever produced...

Spec:
E2160
GeminII
P35-DS3R F6
D9GKX
7900GT
Strider560watt
whatever result i post here is orthos 8hrs stable.. with some problem though

everything stock until 2.5gig (278x9), can boot 2.6gig at 1.35v, and 1.375 orthos 8hr stable..
then straight away 3.0gig (334x9) bootable at 1.400v but need 1.500v to orthos stable 12hrs..

HOWEVER.. here's the kicker..

anything above 2.5gig i CANT POST into bios after restart for second time.. the bios will force to default by itself before i have to load my oc setting to boot at certain speed again!!! or i have to use easytune5 to oc it

so i have to stay happy at 2.5gig.. CRAP..

anything above 2.5gig is orthos STABLE for at least 8hrs BUT CANNOT BOOT AFTER RESTART!! CRAP...

Sounds like BIOs issue since I encountered it on my kid bro's Abit 650i. After a beta BIOS update and manual setting, it was stable (Can you imagine unbootable even at 1066Mhz FSB for E2160?)

erm, had the same prob with my E2160 too. it was OCCT stable at 409*8 (3.27ghz) and also prime stable for 24 hours.but once shutdown or restart it will auto set to default as if the OC was unstable. i increased the PCI freq to 103 and solved the problem

hurm...no issues for me though :S

i suppose its the mobo issue or bios issue like what almostthere said
