The official HWBOT OC Challenge February 2010 thread.

[Massman]

Official thread for the HWBOT OC Challenge February 2010. Questions, remarks and discussion about the contest go in here.

 

If the mainboard you use is NOT present in the HWBOT hardware database, please PM me and I will add it as fast as possible.

[Turrican]

nice, just got 2 754 boards the last week. still need a good one tough.

[Massman]

Shhhht Karl ... I'm *ebaying*

[NoMS]

Time to fry my old 754 combo...

[c3tuning]

Ready to go

Newbie ask

'highest reference clock' : is this total cpu clock or only HTT clock ?

it's htt clock or fsb on other plattforms

look here http://hwbot.org/rankings/benchmark/reference_clock/info

[placid]

ic ic, thx Turrican. In my country competition like this has been done 1 year ago, and I got only 425 MHz with AMD platform .

Now let's try with 754 Socket, I still have an LP NF3-250GB n Sempy 2500+. Yeeeah at least hit 350MHz HTT clock

[s0lid]

Neat!

I just happen to have one 3000+ and Asus K8N-E combo here, tho the board doesn't post yet. vDDR doesn't seem to give anykinda out put.

[mAlkAv!An]

Anyone knows which chipset clocks best, nF3, nF4 or via K8T ?

[Massman]

No idea.

 

I suppose NF4 would be better, but some NF3 went really crazy.

[Turrican]

yeah, nf3/4 are for sure the best i think.

[placid]

n don't forget with nForce 6100

[knopflerbruce]

I wonder if my semi-dead 250gb can do some damage here... I have two more in Germany that should work better.

[Turrican]

hehe, competing with knut should be fun.

[GreenKiller]

Have a Sempron 3000+ and a Biostar GF6100 anywhere lying around. Lets see if i can get anything outta it...

[knopflerbruce]

Not sure I'll win this, though... HTT clocking isn't anything I've done much before. I saw 410 on that board on a Clawhammer, before some chip burned. The funny thing is that it works at stock voltage, but 1.8v is not possible anymore - then it just shuts down:D

[kikicoco1334]

i have a 3000+ with out the ihs lol i monna do some damage with that

i'll try do some damage lol

[placid]

OOoops I forget to add "HWBOT" in this CPUZ submission

 

 

Next try with water n ice at CPU, perhaps can be better HTT

[Massman]

You can always re-submit a validation file and attach different name

[TiN]

 

ASRock K8A780LM with 780 chipset FTW

[Massman]

Where would we be without Asrock?

[Bones]

Hmmm.... This looks interesting.

May have to try it and see what I can come up with here.

Are all Sempron 754 socket come with locked multiplier? In my DFI, I set Sempron 2500+ multiplier 4 or 5 but in windows always 7. Is my board have bug with this ?

[oDDiTy]

If i remember correctly, processor must support cool'n'quiet technology to allow you to lower it's multiplier. Thus you should use sempron 3000+ or higher.
