MSI's Master of Overclocking Arena 2011

[simoko]

---

ako problema ron kai na yatap ang akong HD6950...adto pa ko GI karon magpa warranty...ang lain nako nga vcard diri is an Inno3D GTS450 ra...ambot asa ra kaha ni kutob e-oc...hehehehe...lisud diri sa cebu 'ric wala kaayo magpa borrow ug mga parts...dili preha didto sa manila daghan distro mopahulam...


mga naka SBridge...sayon kaayo e-oc to 5GHz nang mga 2600k procies...try lang ninyo...ma enjoy lagi mo...

[[-erick-]]

yep, gamay ra pud magpahulam dinhi sa DCW... katong mga karaan damang lang ang magpahulam nako... ang uban newbies hadlok kay basig "masunog" nako... lol conservative man ko pag mag-OC ug lain, nagacompensate ko sa cooling solution nila.

what happend to the vc? na over volt?

at what simoko said: yep swerte ron ang mga new technology dali ra jud kaayo i-oc ang sandy... from 0 to 5ghz few volt bumps lang. ang lisod na kay greater than 5ghz.

tip, ayaw bigla ug butang ug higher volt (1 bump at a time) then watch your temps (realtemp/coretemp) to see if volt bump is manageable.

wanna watch this..nice kau sa mga beginners like me.. sa OC...

good luck master simoko!

erick and simoko.i will take note of dat mga sir....nag try ko OC on my own for the 1st tym last weekend..1st run nako 4.2ghz..2nd 4.4ghz...try nko 4.8ghz on my 3rd ran..ang pc naa na MACHINE ERROR..try nako 4.7 nag BSOD na...ang kaya ra nako is 4.5ghz... na try nako .6ghz but pag prime test nag shutdown na...

mga masters OT lang. ask ta ko if morecommend mo og MSI nga gaming laptops. 60k ako budget. If mahimo ilist inyo marecommend nga laptop. naa na koy desktop. TIA

take note on the bsod error codes

Some hints when you get BSOD's while tuning your overclock.

0x000000124 : QPI/VTT voltage is to Low or too High. On i7 45nm, usually means too little VVT/QPI for the speed of Uncore. On i7 32nm SB, usually means too little vCore
0x000000050 : Memory Timings or Ram frequency, uncore multi unstable. Iincrease RAM voltage or adjust QPI/VTT, or lower uncore if you're higher than 2x
0x000000101 : Not enough vCore or can also be related to the IOH vCore being a little low.
0x00000009C : The error is a MACHINE_EXCEPTION_ERROR. The tRCD maybe a little tight. Loosen it up a notch or add more vDimm or QPI/VTT.
0x000000109 : Not enough or too much memory voltage
0x00000001E : Increase vCore
0x00000003B : Increase vCore
0x00000003D : Increase vCore
0x0000000D1 : QPI/VTT, increase/decrease as necessary, can also be unstable ram, raise ram voltage
0x000000116 : Low IOH (NB) voltage, GPU issue (most common when running multi-GPU/overclocking GPU)
0x00000007E : OS is being detected as corrupt. Try increasing IO voltages (IOH/IOH vcore/vdimm).
0x00000000A : More QPI/VTT voltage
0x00000001A : If you get this while overclocking, you will need to tweak the vDimm, ram timings and the VTT/QPI voltage. This is a combination of those 3 settings. If you are not overclocking, suggest running Memtest on your dimms.

aside from this while benching (usually the multi-threaded ones) wPrime, vantage... take note on your temps. Gamit nako coretemp. From there ma-gauge nimo when imo thermal limit with the current cooler.

[edit] Hulat lang sa uban, not fan of laptops (lol) my aging aspire4530 is still sufficient when i am on the road. Masyagan ko palit mahalon na laptop... ie 60k pwde na nako palit wcs + new parts (ie another hdd on my 12tb++ drives

@ick: better create your own thread na lang.

@erick: thanks for the error code info. bookmarked na lang ni nako. i might be encountering one soon.

Thanks sa pag share...
Good luck ninyong duha Master Simoko ug Erick....

[simoko]

sa mga nag good luck...daghang salamat...BUT...mas maayo kung mo-apil mo...lingaw2x lang gud...by joining the contest, it will force you to learn

@ erick: ambot ngano tu sya...gamai pa man kaayo adjustments sa voltage adto...gadagan ko ug Vantage...ni pawng lang kalit...wala na gyud kabalik pa...no signal na bsan asa nga port nya...
