run some stability test progs (prime95 OCCT etc etc) ... if all runs stable then no need to do anything lorr .. heheheehe

what dya mean by stability here dood?
running at current speed dya encounter any prob with ur system?

E2160
MSI P35 NEO-F
BIG TYPHOON
DUAL 1GBX2 CORSAIR DDR2 667

The maximum i achieve is 2.9Ghz
if i set higher will bluescreen death

22sec 1MB SUPER PI

i found out, it is uneccesary to increase CPU voltage..
using auto voltage to OC 2.9Ghz=stable
using 1.6V OC 2.9 Ghz= stable

using 1.4V-1.6V OC to 3Ghz= not stable
using auto voltage to 3Ghz = not stable

why people nid increase voltage ar?

And i set the timing to 4-4-4-12.. receive the same benchmark.
why wan set timing ar?

^ ur RAM is value series aite?
try loosen the timing & see wheter u can get 3Ghz stable or not

ps: let the voltage around 1.4v-.15v

Hi all, i bought this Abit IP35-E and i have two proc. E2160 and the E6300, wana ask about which pro suit the mobo best? The Abit and E2160 still in box

I think E6300 is better to play.Try both,see how.

@ken
whats the stepping for both your procs?

pardon me, whats 'stepping' mean?
im here to learn how to oc.

pakai CPU-Z see the stepping there , I guess E6300 is L2 while E2160 is M0

ok the stepping is number 6

@ken
download cpu-z and tell me

For the definition of stepping, this is a good link to read. Find jumpingjacks post in this thread, he defines it superbly

Here goes:


for the E2160 i post later. Haven open the box yet lol

hmm u have a B2 Stepping.. i am not sure whats the Overclockable stepping for an E6300...

2.2320VCore

anyway... i used to use B2 E6300, not bad... managed to get 3.4GHz on Mars before

uhm....
CPUZ voltage reading is always salah one..mine also

gona overclock with stock hfs for temporary, can i reach 2.6 safely? =X

Stock HSF can go quite some speed.I got an E6550 up to 3.29 on stock HSF but i crap out on vcore so 3.22 is as high and temp is max of what i am happy,65.

i believe stock Hsfs can be used <1.40V on the Vcore. Anything above that is suicidal. This is for >65nm processors. Dont count 45nm procs in this equation.

Agree.Stock HSF i have gone to 1.45v like that.

ok, here's my Q6600 initial results after being absent for a long time.

C2Q Q6600 @ 4.28Ghz
Asus Commando bios 1302 (old skool )
TeamGroup Xtreem PC8500 2X1GB
Silverstone Zeus ST75ZF
