Post Your Overclock! [2]

[stormy13]

Just picked up a FX-8350 today, and after about 10 minutes at stock have it this so far,



Only run Prime95 for about 30 minutes or so and no errors. Going to let it run for longer tonight and see where it goes.

Well done, Stormy.

Thank you Steve.

Going to give it a few days for the fresh thermal paste to set up, and then see how far it can go. Hopefully from what I can see elsewhere based on vcore to get there, I should be able to get to 4.8 - 5.0 with the vcore under 1.4V.

That sounds great. Maybe you got one of the 'Golden Chips'. I've never had one. I have to 'kick mine in the tail' to make them go very high.

Good for you on the new toy Richard, how far will you go?

Nice OC Stormy, looks like you are gonna have some fun

Nice oc Stormy
I recommend running some games too as my 8350 would pass stress tests all day long with a low vcore but consantly crash out in some games. Solarstarshine pointed me in the right direction though and it seems this cpu needs more vcore. For instance 4.6Ghz could be as high as 1.464v. At the moment i'm running 4.75 at 1.47v.

Here's my latest
There's another little competition going on in the ROG forums "Summer sizzler" and this is where i'm at sofar.

Edit: @Solarstarshine, check the HWinfo screenie

I see what you are talking about with the spikes you have cores going to 4.8 Ghz I posted my own shots too so you can see the sick spike i am getting

Yeah Solar, it's always fun to do a bit of benchmarking, seems to be getting less people around on here that do it now.
