Overclocking Competition!!!

I can't get it stable above 3.3GHz, and that's with a high voltage. I wish I would have gotten the E6750 with a lower stock voltage, like my friend did. I plan on tweaking some more, and maybe getting a different PSU, which may be the problem.

I had SpeedStep on and didn't want to take it off... Because my BIOS are wierd, they are Award which I think are the best for reliability but they can't call anything a good name :rolleyes: If you do the math, 4005Mhz = 445 x 9... I went higher, to right below 4.2Ghz, and couldn't get it to stabilize when I tried opening CPU-Z, I finally got aggravated and quit...

Wafflez, you need to re-do the validation because it took it when the system downclocked, so it's only showing 2GHz.

Mine did the same thing....
Because when the computer isn't doing anything CPU intensive, it lowers the multiplier. Mine does this as well, so I just have WinRAR do some heavy compressing for a minute or so while I validate it.

Yeah I know that, I validated that first and thought it captured my 4005Mhz OC, then I tried upping the voltage and going to 4.2Ghz and crashed while I was running Orthos on the 4.2Ghz so I could validate at 4.2Ghz. But, instead of playing with it for another 10min, I just said F-it and stuck that on here without knowing it was 6x multi:(

Zero OC ability with my current MoBo. I still have the board I used, but it's all packed up to be shipped out tomorrow for RMA (long story :p).

Well...it seems that someone who was supposed to RMA the referenced MoBo had a brain skitz and not only waited until the last day to RMA it, but FORGOT to do it... :rolleyes:

So now I'm the proud owner of a spare P31 DS3L sitting in my closet. I may fire it up and see how high Big D can go at some point, but I've no desire to pull everything apart right now.

Still waiting on Jet to update.

Jet, if you aren't going to keep this up to date then maybe someone else should have made it.
