Alf still in the slow progress to hit 3.7ghz or beyond..... but he shy shy, dun want to post his findings one LOL

official x3320 owner here...

wohooo...
finally 450MHz stable. well, at least stable for 20 tests on IBT.
but have to increase vcore to 1.4v & ram voltage to 2.04v
temp reached 80C already.

450MHz x 7.5 (3375 MHz) - IBT 20 tests passed!



still can't passed ibt test above 450. first test failed already.

bro alf, share your setting here laa...
whats the vcore & ram volt that u use to get to 3.7GHz?
how bout the temp?
i can't get passed 3.4GHz. so mad!

Added on August 29, 2008, 10:34 amanyway, i got small problems,
after done doing this test, i seems to have problem opening the control panel.
and why everytime i boot into windows the first time, the multiplier shown is 6. after doing super pi or ibt test, then only multiplier goes up to 7.5?
my mobo is gigabyte p45-ds3.
is that the gigabyte energy saving thingy that come into way?

Yup. DFI style is VID add one.
That meant I added 0.35mV. 
3.7GHz? Q9300/X3320??

@IcEMoCHa
Mind to share w us your setting??

-pWs-

will try disable C1E & EIST first tonite.
probably the cause of instability since vcore must be pump everytime cpu goes from idle to load.
hopefully problem can be solved asap.

3.7GHz indeed a very very good result for x3320.

How about your setting??

-pWs-

Follow my setting recommendation and tweak more......
I wont let u walk down the wrong path one     

Wahhh 3.4ghz 24/7... thats quite good already.
Tonite u show everyone 3.6ghz pass 20 loop IBT ya......
Owh nothing special actually. Just some settings specific to his bios like ram tweaks and voltages to help him stable.
Muahahahaha alf's bios dun have GTL ref voltages tweak

Where got cacat. I now 3.2ghz also still cannot stable compared to ur previous 3.6ghz burn test passed.
Low voltage mini oc I can lar...

Yes finally someone face the some problem like me. But the IBT test still pass no matter how many loops. I did tried 60 loops, success then hang. lol 

he wana show off his brand new cooler       

just wanna ask,
the biostar i45 is good for OC? any constraint? or let me change the question, what is this mobo fsb wall, regardless the proc?
planning to change to this mobo from my gigabyte p45-ds3.
if almost the same then i think no use changing it, rite.
thanks

Vtt make sure below 1.4v.
If not, might end up w a spoil processor.

-pWs-

Well done bro... now where's the 3.7ghz u promised 
I doubt i'll stable 3.6ghz myself anytime soon 

Mine is prime stable at 3.5Ghz@1.24v. Prolly gonna be my daily use settings.
I'll try to hit 3.6 or 3.7 soon though =p

You can read the settings from the Tpower2 app in the screenshot =p
Other settings:

GTL1: 0.63
GTL2: 0.67
MCH GTL: 0.64
CPU PLL: 1.6

No prob =)
Eh P5Q got no GTL ref settings? That's terrible. Lucky I didn't buy one..was thinking of either my I45 or a P5Q Pro/Deluxe..

Your chip's pretty good though - 3.6Ghz without meddling with the GTL Refs.

Aha priming with 3.6Ghz now. 3dmark in a day or so once I get the other settings sorted out - I reckon I can lower Vdimm and maybe Vfsb/Vnb a bit.
Going out soon too =p

Here's a screenie of 480FSB 3.6Ghz tho!

Oh yeah I did haha. I'm using a 110CFM brandless fan from robyn. Shouldn't be that much diff over the stock 90CFM sunbeam fan though..
