Overclocking

[noze]

Need suggestions/comments/tips/precautions

a month ago I started tweaking my computer and decided to learn basic overclocking..
kay nagkaraan na ni cya, practisan na lang. I want to play games at 1920x1080 Res.

now here's what i came up to..

3.70 GHz stable
idle CPU temp: 42° C @ cpufan 1980 RPM
room temp: 24°-26° C

multiplier overclocking daw bai hangtod max. extreme edition bitaw ni. unya nana FSB para within spec imong memory.

Paminaw jud ni master poldo, ako ning idol sa overclocking!

Okies ako i try dayun i post nako ang result...

mag add pa ba ug voltage sa CPU kung i increase ang multiplier?

[VonTech]

basta overclocking, kang master poldo...post dayon sa results..

[werty]

only increase voltage whenever necessary... like wen ur stuck at a certain setting or speed, u nid to add extra volts to see if it gets past it...

[regilsolon]

oc to 50 % kaya ba ?

[eXpLoDe]

@TS: imong os is 32bit? ok paman ang temps nimo sir.

Mga maldito mo...Suya ko dah....hahahaha...

Since our processors are pretty similar why dont you stick with stock FSB first and keep raising the multiplier and see where the clock hits, currently im using 426FSB ( dunno why 425 is unstable ) x8 that gives me 3.4Ghz and I need to pump a pretty high voltage of 1.475v in the bios because of the huge voltage drop on my mobo when the processor is loaded.

And I only trust "Real Temp" for monitoring intel processors, you can google it or grabi it at XS
