Post Your Overclock! [2]

Very nice Kelly Couldn't get 4.4 huh? :roflmao:

A Guy

That took me a minute to get lol......nope, just couldn't get there! Maybe next time.

 

[Britton30]

Good job Kelly! Maybe move the rig from the heat or get some sort of deflector on it?

 

[kbrady1979]

The rig isn't getting the full force of the vent as it spreads the heat out 180*, and I can't really move the PC from where it is now. The heat on does raise the temp about 2-3* though, but it doesn't run all the time. It's just enough to not be within margin of error, but nowhere near enough to bother me. I can lower the voltage and probably drop it a couple of degrees.....that's what I love about this setup, so much flexibility.

Actually, the vent does have a switch to adjust airflow, instead of deflection, I may be able to make a reduction! Thanks for getting the gears turnin....will see if it makes a difference. It doesn't need to be wide open anyway, I NEVER get cold in this part of the house.

Thought I'd give it a quick run to 4.5 to see how it's going to act. Need to lower the voltage, and play with the settings, will make more adjustments later.

 

[paulpicks21]

Voltage looks pretty good already Dave.

How come the 4545? You got the BCLK at 101 or something?

 

[essenbe]

Nice job, Dave. Good voltage and temps. Well done.

 

[Dave76]

Ya, just checking out the new BIOS

That's just walking up the multi, at 4.4 had to give a little vcore bump. Still need to lower it and do some testing.
Haven't changed any other settings, besides setting the Ram to spec.

wow 5.ghz. i can get up to 4.9ghz on my 2600k / Asus p8p67 1.45V straight on 100 x49. not stable at 100% :X but can browse or play game for a while. reaching 65C max with corsair h100



Edit : got up to 5ghz. 1.52V. quite stable , ran Prime for 10mn but temp was getting way too high // 80C,

 

[kbrady1979]

Here is the latest bump. Been running this for a few days now and it hasn't missed a lick!

 

[Dave76]

Those temps are pretty low, did you check them with another program?
Like RealTemp.

If it's accurate, you should go to +5GHz.

AIDA64 and RealTemp are always spot on +/- 1*. I wish I could get 4.5GHz at the voltage you are using!

Dave, Kelly, very nice indeed!

I'm seriously thinking about moving back to Intel after many years of AMD. The bulldozers are a bit of a disappointment. Not shure about the Visheras, but I'm positive that any decent i5 would do much better than my 8120.

Cheers,

I told you this in another Thread the Vishrera is 20% better then the 8120 or 8150

the 8350 is comparable to the 3570k but it does compare really well with a 3770 k in multi threading and decompression so when i was suggesting about keeping your video card vs getting a new one I suggested you already have the socket just update the bios get the chip and you will see a big difference

I'm using my CinBench to show you the difference 8120 Oc'ed to 4.7 would barley get 7.90 same speed 8350 8.11 about a 20% gain

This chip is what Bulldozer was orginally supposed to be I assume

the 8350 is comparable to the 3570k but it does compare really well with a 3770 k in muli threading and decompression so when i was suggesting about keeping your video card vs getting a new one I suggested you already have the socket just update the bios get the chip and you will see a big difference

Yeah, I remember your suggestion, and I have a 990fx board on its way. Maybe I will give the 8350 a try.
Maybe an 8350 plus a second 7850!

 

[essenbe]

Nice overclock, Kelly and good temps. It's those Malaysian CPU's that get the good Vcore, it seems.

That CPU cooler is excellent, I'll have to check into that.
My voltage settings are a patented secret
Just got lucky with the CPU, I guess.

Thanks Bungee, I like my Intel CPU, the i5 3570k is a nice one to play with.

@essenbe, mine is a Costa Rican.

 

[kbrady1979]

I went with the Intel cooler, even though most reviewers said it was just decent, and it's been a champ for me. I would like to try a Noctua fan on it and see if it performs any better.

At this point you will only have a better running system and you don't have to jump ship because it's on par with the 3570k

It's definitely more than decent, Nocs should give at least a little improvement, it will be quieter.
How's the noise with the stock fans?

 

[kbrady1979]

It's a Delta fan, so it's not junk, but I think the Noctua F12 would be better for it. I have very little fan noise as it is in the rear of the case, on the other side of the Rad.........I don't hear it at all.
