ok ah ?

decent.. idle temp bit too high, stock cooler?

Nice.

Yeah, the idle TEMP with your Vcore should be below 40c. Still using intel stock heatsink?

Have you done stress test like prime95, OCCT, LinX, etc.?
If so, please include screenshots here for academical purposes

Academical purposes?
You are the pro here bro.

-pWs-

Nah really. It's just big words only...

It's just for reference so that other people that look this thread can use the collective information to better understand overclocking the E7xxx.

u have better knowledge bro...lots of experience...why dont u create academic guideline for newbie like me...
i have instinct for more speed but need to increase voltage exceed 1.36v which make me scared..thinking to use 1.4v..is that a stupid move?coz dont want to damage my proc..
btw its very difficult to oc E7200 compared to E2180....

actually E7200 is good OCer if you got good batch..last time i can manage E7200 @4.0Ghz..but don't know what page on this thread i has been posted the result...

late reply...yes im using stock cooler..
open side panel & on aircond 20C idle 43C

why so hot ? bcos i got 9800gt inside ? idle is 60C


i didnt test on anything, but i everyday dota 3-4 hours and 24h dl..

Before that, why in your sig written that you are using K.V.R. 800mhz, and you stated in your previous post that you are running your ram at 667mhz?
Just wanna know if your RAM is downclocked from 800mhz to 667mhz OR it is really a 667mhz stock ram...

If it's 800mhz stock speed, you better off using that speed, so you can tune your OC to 400fsb X 9 = 3.6ghz...

OK, I've used to OC'ed my E7400 to 3.5mhz because I used to use 667mhz rams, and 10.5 X 333 is the MAX I can get while retaining the 1:1 ratio.
I was using stock cooler at that time, the IDLE temps was okay, but the LOAD temps reached up to 99c when running tests like 3DMark '06.
The stock cooler was horrible when OC'ed, you are better of with the cheapest Cooler Master coolers like the X-dream lines (http://www.coolermaster.com/product.php?product_id=2533 ), only RM60 at Low Yat Plaza..
The C2D stock cooler are not recommended for OC'ing, the Quad's cooler are okay because they more thicker than the C2D's cooler...

Added on May 18, 2010, 12:49 amA procs life can last up to 15 years+, but by OC'ing it via high Vcore could reduced it to 5-6 years of lifespan, meaning if you want to OC it up to 1.4v, you will have to plan to upgrade the proc in the next 5+ years... but by that time we have already upgrade the PC.
But I can't garantee it, because each procs are different. 1.4000v is alright, but more that 1.41v is to much for this 45nm Core 2 Duo procs.

Intel's MAX recommendation of highest Vcore is 1.3625v, so try to OC as highest possible with different FSBs and multipliers combination BUT without going over that 'bar' of 1.3625v...
Until you can't OC higher with Vcore below 1.3625v, then you can go above that recommended Vcore. (but of course at your own discretion...)

For example, I can OC my E7400 to 3.8ghz at 1.31v; but to reach 4.0ghz, I need to OC it to 1.41v...so i rather stick to 3.8ghz because it's healthier...

yeah..in page 12 or earlier..read it in early stage before start OCing...gain knowledge first
u can get higher fsb even with lower Vcore compared to mine..very sad..mybe bcoz my proc OEM...
for me to archieve higher fsb and maintain low Vcore i have to drop its multiplier from 9.5 to 8.5. otherwise prime95 will shows error for 1 hour..
or set them at 400 with 9.5 at 1.43V..

i think in 5 years edi change other platform..depend on economy status first..

looking forward of E7500 OC 24/7 results..anyone have it?

E7500 is a very nice proc to OC! It has up to 11 multipliers...
Bro, I think if you read pages back, there are few people OC'ed the E7500 and yield successful results...I don't remember who (it was months ago when this thread was really active), but one thing I remember about the E7500 is:
LOW VCORE, HIGH MHZ..

hehe..i've already read it..just looking for more OC'ers to show their results..i was thinking to OC my q6600 at first..but thinking wanna tried with e7500..

but sadly,can't oc a thing right now..i change a mobo to new casing..and now it won't boot up..like a display problem..burnt a mobo summore..aishhhhh....

yo bro Jo, after so muc busy in work at last i can show some screenies here.. but still havig some funny problerm.

- some times i restart pc the OC value lost. back to 2.66(bios prompt that i have oc so it not stable)
- last time i ave problem loading vista (if u could remember i pm u bout it beofre) but now i install win7 64bit enterprise, no problem wit booting in.. same setting oso
-when priming i notice sometimes the first and second worker lags a bit.. example first already test8 second test9. but eventually it will catch up after a few rounds then begins to lag 1 spot again,, lol
- i bougt a new true psu d..
- all thhe problem above still happens even i can managa to prime for 10 hours =.=
- 375x10
ram900mz at 2.1vdimm
MCH i bump 1 lvl up..

Below are shots of idle and load.. pls guide me is anyting wrong wif it.. =)

@ evoangel
Why dun you play w 1:1 first?
In the mean time, push FSB.

-pWs-

erm.. any suggestion on the setting i should start wif?? maybe more specific?? hehe im dumb.. need to 'draw out intestine'.. lol

well i previously tried 3.0 then to 3.2 then 3.4 but all of them fail to prime!! blardy funny.. until when i try bump to 3.75 OCCT,prime more than 10hours okay wor!! y leh???

u mean 1:1 lets say an exmaple like 333fsb to 667 ram? hmm.. have to downclock my ram lor??

or could i set lower multi wif higher fsb?

*wrong post

@ -pWs- , another try to get 1:1. hope i gets wat u mean..any comment bro?

This post has been edited by evoangel: Jun 27 2010, 09:11 AM

Possible to pump FSB somemore?
Idle and Load Temp??

-pWs-

idle 39 to 42.. load is 61-65

erm i tried to pump fsb but i receive lots of blue screen wor.. i try 400x8.5 and 400x9.5 and wont prime.. i even bump MCH and ICH.. my vcore i put 1.4 wont boot.

1 more question is which vcore should i refer to? from bios or cpuz.. coz cpuz shows most lesser than wat i set in bios.. is it save that way? the screen shot shows 1.36 when idle, 1.344 when priming and in bios i set is 1.38x.. im confuse.. i knows its vdroop but im not sure how it react..

Added on June 27, 2010, 11:29 amaiya i didnt post the Memory page on cpuz.. =.= wat was i dreaming.. but i confirm is 1:1 now.. and it prime 7 hours jor..
