A Sandy Bridge Pentium that OC's???
EpicAMDGamer replied to EpicAMDGamer's topic in Sandy Bridge (P67/Z68) OC
So I just got windows installed............and the processor is running at its stock multiplier. I suppose this is one of those times that the bios is dead wrong, can't believe I fell for that. -
Hello everyone! I'm a user of HWBOT for about 4 years, had about 60 points on my old HWBOT account, haven't done much on this one. I don't know much about intel's lower end lineup, and I was under the impression that all of the 1155 pentiums were locked multiplier. Well I threw together a computer for office use today with an EVGA P67 SLI board and a Pentium G640, and while messing around in the bios, noticed that I was able to set a different value in the processor's multiplier setting. I saved the bios and to my surprise, The BIOS is showing the value I've set. I have not installed windows yet, but I certianly will get a cpuz validation when I do. I'm wondering if anyone has more information as to why this is possible?

Ticket ID: 1678 Priority: Low Hello, I see there is a GA-7VA on HWBOT which is a socket A motherboard from gigabyte. \r\n\r\nI have a Gigabyte GA-7VAX that I would like to have added to the BOT.\r\n\r\nI\'d also like to get a notification when it has been added so I can modify all my submissions to reflect the motherboard I\'m actuallly using.

Thanks guys Yeah I guess my cpu is good for FSB but other than that it's not good for much else considering it's 1.6ghz stock and all I've got it to so far is 3Ghz. It's actually the first amd cpu I'm benching, hopefully from here I can get a bit more. One thing I hate about this cpu is that it's HT runs at 1.6ghz not 2Ghz and it seems very picky about that sort of stuff. I'll probably compete in the Maxxmemm challenge as well, see you then!

Hello, what slot do you have the card in that board? You should have it in the black slot, otherwise the latency from the PLX bridge on the orange slots will affect your scores. -

Hello guys, got a question for ya. I got myself $100 of Walmart Gift cards to get rid of. I already have an ASUS P8Z68-V PRO (not gen3) laying around and I'm wondering if it's a good idea to use that walmart money to order a Pentium G630 and a tiny bit of HyperX DDR3 1333mhz ram. It says the ram is stock 1.5volt so maybe with a bit more voltage I can get 1600-1866 or so and oc the cpu a bit. I'm wondering how much of an increase in 3DM03 Scores I can get going from some slightly OC'd C2D's and Athlon 64's and original Phenoms all running on DDR2. Thanks and happy holidays! -

So I don't know if anyone is aware but it's extremely hard to soder the vmod on 7900's. People recommend conductive ink. I tried to soder, and succeded!!! Only problem now is that I'm causing the system to shutdown because it's overloading my Thermaltake TR2 430Watt PSU -
