That's already almost a clean cable management. My Sempron 2500+ PC is just filled of wires until I have to 'hustle' them out just to see the RAM sticks.

No I'm not kidding, so it means you have to tweak your memory further to get the full advantage since I believe your's is of 4Mb cache variety?

I have not had a new system in 7 years, don't know how to oc,

but if I remember right my times now are like 5,5,5,5, 18.

That's the basic timings. It's those advanced timings that do count alot actually. No experience with Asus due to personal dislike of the Big 3. But if you looked around, I think there's some guide for it

I reached 370 x 9 @ 3.3Ghz. Lazy to tweak any further. Problem with temp, if I go any further, temp rises to 70+, Orthos failed less than 3 minutes.

I think it's enough now... will reinstall windows and make it my primary system.

Wow, you actually managed to hit 370MHz. I couldn't hit 370MHz on your board at all. Only on the AW9D.

Dashken · 22nd Jun 2007, 05:21 PM

Yeah.. but temp is high. Was going at 415x8 but thought why not use 370x9 and see how it is. I stopped at 356x9 initially before I changed the multiplier to 8 and reached 415x8 stable. Increasing the cpu vcore until 1.47v but still failed Orthos.

So, last night went back to multiplier 9 and managed to reach 370x9 stable with voltage already increased. Sigh... temp so high, can't even reach 3.4Ghz.

Now temp is 55-60oC / 67-72oC at 370x9 at 1.4**v.

I think I better stop at 3.3Ghz and lower the cpu vcore until I fail Orthos and then up back maybe 1-2 level. Hopefully the temps will go down.

Hate the piston-type lock on the Cooler Master Hyper TX cpu cooler, press until my thumb also red. Why can't they all come with screws like the Ultra 120?

Btw, is there any difference between 415x8 and 370x9 besides the few Mhz difference? Memory bandwidth is decreased if I use 370x9 right?

neverthar · 22nd Jun 2007, 05:45 PM

Depends, but I think the bandwidth does increase but exponentially by how much I don't know since you'd have to run some benches like sissandra to know. Currently running mine at 400Mhz at 1.425v VCore, normal temp 41C Load temp 60C which is good for a stock heatsink

Dashken · 22nd Jun 2007, 10:10 PM

400x9? Wow...

Why everyone's temp so low one?

neverthar · 22nd Jun 2007, 10:24 PM

Oppsss...didn't make it clear. It's 8*400 (E6400 ma) with C1e and EIST enabled
