clever boy detected..hahahaha

juz finish OC n test

400x9 @ 1.306V in bios, 1.280V in cpu-z with LLC enabled

mobo: GA EP45-UD3L

felt not much diff after benchmarking..

comparing 333x10.5 @ 3.5 and 400x9 @ 3.6.. the onli diff is abit more memory read/write/copy..

CPU benchmark is not as much as expected and not worth the extra voltage pumped.. should i keep 400x9 or 333x10.5?

How much vCore difference?

-pWs-

333x10.5

bios: 1.28750V
cpu-z: 1.23~1.25 with LLC disabled, enabled will be 1.248V


400x9

bios: 1.306XXV
cpu-z: 1.264~1.280V with LLC enabled..

Depend on you bro.
You want speed o lower vCOre?

-pWs-

yea, that's wat i m thinking, speed or lower vcore to prolong my E7400's lifespan..

i did simple benchmarking using Everest Ultimate to compare..

juz slight increase in CPU score and abit more in memory..

temperature wise, 333x10.5 on load 61°C max using LinX stress.. 400x9 on load 69°C max..

dilemma.. tomolo revert back to 333x10.5 1st before i decide which to go on..

or mayb try 400x10?

450x 9.

-pWs-

aduh.. nanti hangus processor i..

my KVR need to run at 900Mhz..

running 450 means my FSB will be running at 1800Mhz, my mobo onli support up to 1600Mhz, is it ok kah?

Not sure wor. My E74 running @ 1800MHz ++ 24/7
KVR can do that.

-pWs-

nvm.. i very easy satisfy 1.. 400 sudah cukup.. dun wanna stress my baby E74 so much..

after i decide with which profile, then will start learn bout rams.. by tat time, doh doh zi gao ya..

mou man tai.

-pWs-

anyway, my E74 Core1 temperature sensor stuck at floor 40°C and wont go down.. Core2 is normal.. how bout yrs? any similar problem?

My e74 also. One core stuck 40. No big deal.

-pWs-

ah.. very common for 45nm procs.. yea.. no big deal, stil got 1 more core as reference..

i juz check back yr SS.. yr KVR running at 900Mhz at 5-5-5-15 even tighter than standard.. did u add Vdimm or other voltage to achieve tat?

vDimm added. 2.0v.

-pWs-

ok thx.. will read more bout it later.. timing, PL.. aduh..

latest update

proc: E7400 E0
mobo: GA EP45-UD3L
ram: KVR 800Mhz 5-5-5-18
GPU: HIS IceQ4 4850 TurboX 685Mhz clock, 1100Mhz ram

333x10.5



400x9


400x9.5 failed to boot at 400x9 settings..

using Everest Ultimate simple benchmark testing between 333 and 400,
CPU score only increase 2~4%
RAM score increase 7~9%

with the big difference in Vcore, and little increase in performance, do u guys think 333x10.5 is more feasible?

not forgetting the temperature.. temperature diff between 333 and 400 on load is about 6~7°C

Another breakthrough.

410 x 10



Will try to get more speed and prime longer.

-pWs-

damn! dats impressive!

Yesterday tried 4160MHz. Prime so far stable.
Will try 4200MHz today.
