Hey all,

ive had a feeling for some time now that somethings not running right in my system,just like sudden lag spikes and such which it doesnt happen often but occasionaly stuff will not respond etc.

ive ran my system at 2.702Mhz for ages,so i decided to run ORTHOS today and it failed 1.25 secs into the stress test lol

whats going on? whats wrong with my overclock?
my system seemes to be okay when i had it at 2.8ghz and 800mhz on the ram but i lowred it back to 2.7 because of temps.

so my speds are

cpu = 2.702Ghz
memory 772Mhz (Dual channel)
with intel speedstem enabled...you know that power saving feature? hence teh reason Intel Tat reports 2.3ghz,
thanks for help

Not enough Vcore? What's it at, at the moment?

hi Danny,

according to Everest Ultimate its

Core Voltage 1.325 V

should i have set it to Auto in Bios? if i remember correctly when i have it on auto it goes to 1.42V at 2.7Ghz

but the reason i put it on 1.325 is because i heard it can reduce temps and some people have their e6300 at 3ghz on stock V :confused:
 
Yeah, it does reduce the temps. I have had mine at 2.8Ghz, with 1.31v.

Maybe raise it a little bit, one notch up, if it doesn't work, try raising it again. Keep it under 1.45v if you can ;)
 
right,

in my Bios theres two colours when you select things

Red =no reccomended for those speeds
White = reccomended for stable settings

i upped it to 1.337v but it said it the red text which means not reccomended for that speed so i upped it to 1.362V and it went white.

i presed F10 to save and restart and now runnign Orthos,its gone past 1.25 without any errors yet so hopefully it wil be stable now.
6+ mins and still stable on test 3

thing is Everest still reports my V core as 1.325 so obviusly thats not right (everest that is)
 
16 mins and still no errors looking good so far,i heard you have to run this for at least 24 hours though? :eek:

my temps are a bit high though in this stress tese :(

core 0 = 54c
Core 1 = 52c

safe temps?

it idles around 35-38c
 
I have the Vcore of my cpu at 1.45v, wich is actually just fine. (but then, its also still cooler than your cpu it seems) anyways, thanks for idea of this program, might run it this afternoon too, jsut to see if everything is fine ^.^ (since super pi and prime95 dont find anything)
 
Those temps are fine, you'll never actually get that high when gaming or anything, so I wouldn't worry ;)

thanks mate,when itried OC to 2.9 Ghz previusly my system would restart as usual when saving settings in bios and before the loading bar starts i get a blue screen and it restarts the pc again :D do you also think thats what prevented me from OC further? having too low V core?

yeah i think its your cooler is just alot better than the AC7 PRO,and im using MX-2.
Super Pi is great :)
 
fine ive had no problems yet,no lag spikes no anything.

i might bump it back to 2.8Ghz on that VCore when iget a new cooler :)

yeah in order to have complete stability i have to set my e4500 at ~1.3V so that sounds about right, if you want 3ghz try setting it to 1.35V as long as it stays under 60C in orthos then its totally fine.

it fails at 2.7Ghz on 3.25...thats why i have had to bump up the voltage to 1.337v
 
I have my e6300 on stock cooling @2.5 (can't remember the vcore) the max temp i've managed to get it using orthos on a hot a summer day is about 65c- its a bit high but its acceptable in my opinion. Average on orthos is about 60c. Idles at about 50c.
