Overclocking: - whats your GHz

[Colonel Mitch]

Just thought it'd b fun if those of you out there who are bold enough to enter the realm of overclocking would post some cpu-z shots some of your clocks for comaprison - also list your cooling:)

I havent tried very hard yet but i can easily get this out of mine, though with phase change cooling i should be able to get to almost 5:)

Have fun and good luck!

bloodyhell thats alot, got a e6550@3.2ghz with standard cooler

[Chalex4]

I am going to be overclocking my Q6600 as soon as my Thermalright Ultra-120 Extreme CPU Cooler (http://overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=HS-039-TR) arrives, then I will post a screenshot :D.

[Hutch]

done a bit of changes to my RAM speed, and overclocked my 3000+ slightly to get a bit more life out of it. Bit scared otherwise.

[ez64]

I got my 5200 to 3.6 ish, and 800mhz ram to nearly 1k with low enough timings.

[Marshy]

Whats overclocking

[VoX]

If I over clocked my crap PC it would be like a nuclear blast... (Yes it is that bad, I'll try and find a list of system specs)

Anyway I advise not going to PC World as my PC cost my parents £1,200 roughly and it's complete crap.

[Hardietbh]

aye pc world rip you off

[ez64]

heres the stock again will post up overclocking soon.

I installed my new CPU cooler today and it works like a charm. I am currently at 3.2GHz, which reaches about 52°C (avg.) at full load using Prime95 and Core Temp. I will definitely be increasing this to as high as I can get it over the next week or so.

[Hutch]

I wont towin sumthing on the ggs, hourrses you kwon!

[rts_j03]

Liquid nitrogen ftw!

[VoX]

Just having fun atm, staying at the stock voltage (1.3V) and just raising a bit. (Yes, I know I'm only up 0.1Ghz lol, I will go higher at some point.)

Not too bad for stock volts :p.

EDIT: 3DMark Results.

Ohhh shiny :D

Running P95 now, it's nowhere near as stressing as the IBT, it only gets up to 49C at max load...

Tisc Tisc.....

True overclockers dont monitor temperature :D

What you want is looping of 3dmark06's cpu tests 3 times :D

Set your bios to emergency shutdown at 105*C

If it turns off its too hot, and if it crashes it needs more voltage :D

Thats how i did it at i31 anyway, over 4.2 GHZ from a qx6700 on a Coolermaster Aquagate mini R80 (http://www.cluboc.net/REVIEWS/super_cooling/CoolerMaster/MiniAquagateR80/index.htm) :)

- they are probably the worst watercooling availible btw if you read reviews, worse than a decent fan stack :P

At i31 i had that cooler with 2 big high speed case extractor fans, running at over 90-100 *C xD

[VoX]

Lol, I'll keep that all in mind Mitch :p. I may have a shot at getting as high as poss over the weekend.

I've been debating going for a water-cooled setup as my next upgrade, but from reading around it would be too much hassle every time I upgrade a video card. The TRUE is good enough to not need to be replaced by an enclosed CPU Water-cooling system, and I may just grab two 1900RPM Scythe Kazi's (http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=FG-022-SY&groupid=701&catid=57&subcat=4) for a push-pull system with a CPU Upgrade in a year (Hopeful for a cheap QX9650 :p) (And yes, I have high noise tolerance levels lol.)

Update:

Have day to myself, so am spending it go high :p.

3.5Ghz is tops atm, going to go and see if I can break the 4Ghz barrier.

(Voltage is around 1.37 atm, load temps are 73C max)

[Calneon]

I use Orthos for dual core CPUs, meant to be the best.

My E6400 CPU has been at 3.2Ghz for a few years, a 50% overclock from 2.13Ghz stock. CPUZ says the voltage is 1.37, don't know how accurate that is though.

Um..you have the house to yourself, and your first choice of activity is overclocking? I am hereby revoking your dude membership.

[Vicious Horizon]

Lol, agreed Orix XD

Have PS3 in my room with interwebz, was first thing I did :p.
