Overclock Questions

You worry too much, 1.5V wont kill your cpu

I agree, I had my E6300 at 1.55v for months, I even bumped it up to 1.6v when I tried to see how far I could push it.

If you want to be on the very conservative side, then just raise the voltage to around 1.45v and watch the temps to make sure they don't get above 65C under load.

I'm going to try CoD4 and Crysis now, I'll see how it goes...
 
Just played CoD4 for about an hour, worked great! I think it may have been because Bioshock isn't patched...
 
if im not wrong the normal voltage should be 1.35 right?
my E6320 OC'ed to fsb 1333 2.33ghz without increasing the voltage, too scared to do it though.
keep it up,i want to see how far it can go.
 
Put it up to 2.8, but programs would stop responding, like Super Pi (although it still does back at stock?), I tried to run an Orthos test and the PC hung, I don't know, do I need to up the Vcore? Is it safe, I have it at 1.32500, the next one up is, 1.33125, is that Ok.

How much will the temps go up?

Thanks!
 
I tried it, I put the FSB up to 390 and tried it one step up, which is 1.33125... It hung on the Windows Loading Screen.

So I upped it up to the next step, I can't remember what it was, and tried to boot, and it BSOD?

So, I'm back at stock volts and 2.6Ghz.

You need to raise the voltage more then just one step at a time, especially if they are only raised in such slow increments.
 
Right, so I tried 1.33750 with a 390 FSB, it booted to Windows, but then BSOD.

I have these Vcore options;

1.33125
1.33750
1.34375
1.35000
1.35625
1.36250

There's more that go higher...

What do you think?
 
I can get 2.6Ghz @ 1.32500 stable... But nothing higher, I can't go higher on stock volts.

So, I put them up to 1.3500;
Ran a small orthos test;

Stopped it, went to Firefox and it BSOD on me! :mad:
 
Maybe this will help, this is what the specs were when I had my E6300. Note that CPU-Z reports a lower voltage then what is set in the BIOS.

Danny stop being a whimp and put it to 1.5 and see where you get, you wont kill it !

I say that in the nicest way possible :D

EDIT: looks like your mobo has a bit of a VDroop too of about 0.04 V, so 1.5 V will be about 1.45 V in windows
