lol the test is faster thn i though.here are the results

btw this thread really turned frm air cooling discussion to rojak oc discussion d

cooling = OC ma...if you dont OC why do you even bother about cooling XD....use stock enough already

well....post some results lo...so TS can update the database mine is up there already

Bonchi/AC freezer7Pro/tuniq tx2/e4300 @3.25ghz(80.8% overclock)/1.42v/normal fan/30C/50C/28C/Prime95/no aircond



CPUz can refer to my siggy...forgot to include it in my SS

cmon...zeneticX...post yours here

updated for u bonchi

but i noticed ur tjmax for ur previous result is not the same lol

Here's mine

ZeneticX/Xigmatek Archilles S1284/Tuniq TX2/E8400 @ 4.1Ghz/1.31v/stock fan/43c/72c/LinX/no air cond

they wont stay long at 72 or 71c as they will quickly drop back down to 68/67c but i posted it as well for the max temp it can reach

and i've increased bck the vcore to 1.3125v bcoz at 1.27/28 LinX or even Prime95 keep giving me errors after the 1st or 2nd minutes maybe its due to the rams?

when u increase it back does the error still happen??

nope.i complete the 5 rounds LinX test with no errors

and Prime stop giving out errors too???

if it does than its the proc not getting enough vcore and not the ram.

sometimes its strange for Prime95,only 1 of the test will show errors (means 1 core) and then the other core will cont

u mean u will fail prime at 1.31v? using what test? small fft?

ram normally will give u bsod lol

yep small fft test

hmm... then more likely it is ur proc....

try tweaking other voltage options in ur bios to see if it helps

Not really leh

Now I'm using Pentium D and the stock fan so noisy I need to change a new wan, but I never OC before.

So, is it OK if I change to Cooler Master HyperTX2? After change edi got room for a little but of OC?

they're hell lots of voltage options in the bios.i heard its new in p45?

Load Line Calibration
CPU VCore
CPU Term Voltage
CPU PLL Voltage
CPU Reference
MCH Core
MCH Reference
MCH/DRAM Reference
ICH I/O
ICH Core

and do u enable back virtualization and C1A2 after oc?pcie clock remains at 100mhz rite?i hv EIST and C1E enabled bck


are lian li's case fans with led good and bright enough?i see vry little ppl selling them here in lyn,oni got lian li casing

thks TS...well..after researching ...ive found the true TJmax for this proc..which is 85C....used the wire thing where you put under the HSF to test the temp also..ive also set my mobo to make irritating beeping sounds when its 60C and above

so actually my previous post...its over 60C but no beeping sound..so i think the TJmax was wrong at that time..
*so i think ive answered the question for the TJmax of e4300....(as if there's still people using them )

Added on February 15, 2009, 8:44 pmstock fan is indeed noisy...but temperature wise you dont really need such a good one at stock (though its advisable as cooler temps will ensure longer processor life-span)

if you change the HSF...it is true that there will be headroom for OC..however..you can still OC with the stock..but of course with that temperature rise, your proc is at risk as it is closer to the TJmax

thats the main purpose of the HSFs...like mine..if compared to stock..its still running at the same temps though with an 80% increase in clock speed..therefore..the lifespan is not effected..so to say..it is safe to run 24/7

hmm.... nvr really played with ur mobo before

try upping ur vcore lo...if that doesnt help then maybe it means u have to start tweaking other stuff already....

something like cpu ref or mch ref....

maybe u wana increase the mch also....


i guess its better off for u to ask in gigabyte thread as there are alot more experienced user of that mobo to give u advise

hmm 456 FSB..thats quite high..well it seems you have to increase the NB volatage as well...if not mistaken in LYN..there is a thread discussing about your MOBO series ...try searchin 2OZ copper or something like that....there's a rough guide on how to reach 500mhz FSB with the mobo youre using...good luck and all the best in your OC journey

hmmm. i've change the ratio to 4:5 now and my rams are running at 1000mhz. my ram bandwidth has increased to 15GBps but my proc bandwidth is still stuck at 12.8GBps cuz i never increase its clock speed. so since i just change the ratio from 1:1 to 4:5 where i still keep my cpu oc the same, would the increase in ram bandwidth increase performance? cpu bandwidth is still same and less than ram bandwidth tho.

quite noisy too with this cooler iianm...
get a 120mm fan's cooler la... u still can keep it for future upgrade wat...

SunbeamTech CCF
Xigmatek S1238/1284
Deepcool IceBlade/KW
ThermalTake Big Typhoon VX
ThermalRight (a bit exp)

erm, about the cooler master v8.
is there any chance that i can replace the fan with another one?
if yes, does the fan controller has to go too?
and about the controller, do i have to slot it into a pci slot ori just have to use a expansion slot without slotting it into any of the pci?

if the fan in the v8 those conventional 12cm ones..i think it is able to be replaced...and the controller....its a pci slot for easy excess...you can put it anywhere else (leave it hanging even drilling a hole on your casing for the knob)
