Rampage Formula getting 520+ Mhz ?

[Christian Ney]

Hi,

 

I cannot go higher than 520 Mhz, I tried a lot of settings, but still cannot pass 520 Mhz.

Atm using a Core 2 Duo 6320

 

Is there some settings that have to be set in order to pass 520 Mhz ?

 

Thx, atm I am a noob on recent hardware for who knows

Maybe I'm a conroe noob, but not all of these are FSB monsters Could just as well be the CPU. What CPu PLL /FSB Termination voltages?

[Christian Ney]

pll

v: 1.7v

temp: 0°C

 

fsb

v: 1.6v

temp: 1°C

jeez, those are pretty high voltages.

 

maybe your cpu has a fsb wall there. my e6320 also had one, but much lower.

Most likely it's the FSB wall, Conroe chips have that between 450 and 600 on air depending on the chip. In most cases the FSB wall moves when going subzero - ~30MHz gain from air to dryice/singlestage and 50-60MHz gain from air to LN2

haha, I was thinking about a wall or a combination of BIOS settings(damn too much bios settings for this board ), cause it's 100 % stable at this freq, end when I add only 1 more mhz, I have an instant blue screen.

So I tried higher voltages(as Karl said, these are high), and still cannot get 521 Mhz.

Hum I have to try the 2 other 6320 I have to find if they have this same wall too.

 

Thank you guys for the confirmation.

yeah, just recently i had it with my e6300 as well. all benchmarks could be run between a range of ~10mhz cpu clock. 1mhz higher in fsb and it freezes, regardless of voltage\etc.

[Christian Ney]

Damn, I need more chips

 

btw the Pentium 4 530 I told you last day, I tested the 4 chips I have, and the wall is 300 Mhz FSB for two of them and 295 for the 2 others.(or maybe here it's the cpu limit )

Seems there is really a wall, I am running everything with stock voltages

and the e6320 is @ 3.7 Ghz stable superpi and wprime.

lol

Is that alot? I ran my Conroes at 2v CPU PLL and 1.7 vFSB, they're still alive (that was on LN2 though). I think they scaled through both up to a certain point, but not that high:p

LOL, you know what the second e6320 I have....

...

wall is 450 Mhz

using same settings as the one with the 520 Mhz wall

And both are L645G559

welcome to overclocking world

[TaPaKaH]

well, that's why you don't see the low end conroes being benched at 650+ fsb very often ... otherwise it would have been too simple

[Christian Ney]

Yeah sure, but its still impressive when I have same batchs that are far away regarding the max freq or stability.

different batch/stepping is ok, but to see a huge difference with the same batch like 600 mhz it s quite impressive, most of the time I have 10 mhz between double/triple cpu I have.

[Christian Ney]

héhé,

 

I just tested the 3rd chip I have...

1st chip : 452 Mhz wall

2nd chip : 520 Mhz wall

3rd chip : boot from bios 565 Mhz

 

 

ambient air btw
