    binning Conroe cpus

    in General overclocking

    Posted

    With regards to the CB changing depending on FSB, this is similar to what happens with Athlon 64 for example in my personal experience. These wouldn't be necessarily correct numbers but just to use it as an example now. 

    200-600FSB - 140cb 

    601-620FSB - the cold bug gradually gets worse etc, feels like an FSB wall limit but increasing temp actually let's you set the higher FSB which can be a massive pain. It only seems to happen at the highest possible fsb's for any given chip.

    Come on people, ambient = room ambient. Not external ambient - that doesn't make any sense. No-one will voluntarily have a -20C room which they have to live in. :P

    Actually that's exactly what I did when I started out benching. A bunch of my Socket 478 scores on water are done in winter, at night, with the window wide open in my room. Ambient probably about - 5c in my room. Even in Wales we don't get the chilly - 20c I dreamed of.

    Hey everybody! I am just starting, the platforms that I am mainly going to be doing are am4, 775, and 1366. I am just getting started with hwbot, are there any sort of unspoken rules that I should know about? Thank you all for being a great community!

    Just don't break my 775 scores and we'll get along just fine ?

    I put some time on ddr2 recently, and the best way to bin ddr2 seem to be 32m spi, I set my voltage to 2,4v to not damage it, d9 is very sensitive to temps, just put better heat spreaders on it change everything, recently I manage 720 32m spi with single stick (5-5-5-15 at 2,42 bios) on air, some stick seem to cbb at -115 and cb at about -150, different result than noxinite ? maybe different pcb change cold bug

    i dont no if my board do magic on spi 32m or its just the stick, i also have 1 stick with different ic doing 750+ but with loser timing 5-6-5-16

    To be fair his result with cold bug was due to information from myself. I had about 3 sticks cold bug on my phase which does -55c ish. I've since taken a couple of sticks cold and both of mine got full pot so I must have just been unlucky with the first 3.

    For max MHz binning though I think you can just get away with doing just that on air. Set a voltage paramater and timings etc and just see where the sticks crash. Is a hell of a lot quicker than binning for 32M. Bigger problem for me though is I now need to start binning motherboards as my only two P45 boards hit hard limits on the memory controller that no voltage or timings could overcome. Again I don't know if I just got unlucky here or not but I'm not even close to hitting the limit on my 850MHz stick since it could do those speeds at 2.3v or there abouts.
